2024 Update: Pestilence and Porn

Posted by snailshu - January 22nd, 2024


New year, same old me, but with new observations.


First off, I deactivated twitter a while back- feel free to hit me up on bluesky if you'd like!


Secondly, I'd like to use some of the community features here a lot more. I've decided that going forward I'd like to make more of an effort towards being personable online- engaging with other artists, expressing admiration for others' work, and responding to comments on my own stuff. Everyone's much too vocal and kind for me to just be a wallflower on social media. Hence the update. (Hello again!)

Commissions are also a thing I've been dipping my toes into- slots aren't open as of now, but if/when I can get everything squared away I'll make it known in another news post, for anyone who’s interested in hiring me to realize their ideas (characters or concepts or smut or otherwise).


This month, I've taken some baby steps towards being more disciplined towards writing as well. Making a genuine effort to be more serious about Pestilence, a horror story I've been cooking for the last couple years. I've posted a decent amount of concept art for it here already.

It's a story that means a lot to me, and I kinda had the hard realization that it's not a project that's just going to materialize out of thin air. I have to actually make it. Which is both an exciting and daunting commitment- I don't have any clear or concrete goals as of now, but I hope to put more Pestilence-centric work for myself and for you all to chew on. Character sheets, concept art, test comic pages and the like. Right now I'm working on rendering some in-universe tech, here's a peek:

I'm also trying to get a grasp on who is following me here for what kind of work! My portfolio's a little all over the place, but I genuinely enjoy drawing everything ranging from my original work, to film fan art, to nsfw. I'm passionate about it all, so let me know if you'd like to see more dicks and boobs and I'll have zero qualms about leaning into that. There are stories I'd like to realize within erotica as a genre as well~


Thanks for reading, and thank you all again for supporting my work- Newgrounds is full of inspiration, and this place keeps me thinking about working.

Thank you for your cool drawings and good luck on your commitments! I personally don't have any leanings, I'm happier when artists do their things intentionally

Thank you! Intent is behind everything I do, but bouncing between interests can sometimes be overwhelming.

Well, the best projects are those you yourself have to make them... good luck!

This is true- thanks!
