Pregnant Twins - Bonnie and Valerie
🕑 Added 2024-07-28 17:45:34 +0000 UTCMy patron FuturisticMan suggested a re-draw of a manga illustration of twins but as pregnant so here they are in my Va Va Womb art style.
Their names derived from my two Patreons. Bonnie (Bun in the Oven) and Valerie (Va Va Womb). As well as the bikini version, there's also a nude version that I'll post separately.
On a slightly more serious note...
I've been doing a lot of thinking about both of my Patreons recently and considering the future of both of them as well as changes in my own personal and financial situation.
As bit of background, 2 years ago I took the decision to ask my employers to reduce my working from 5 days a week to 4 days a week. It meant that I would be earning 80% of my money from my day job but I would now spend that other day pursuing my own things in art and illustration.
I launched the Va Va Womb Patreon in October 2022 so as to do art of themes that are slightly outside of the main Bun in the Oven stuff and to also create animations.
I found the workload of doing animation very gruelling to the point I was more or less burnt out. It wasn't as fun as I thought it would be as it was a little too close to what I do for a living the rest of the week.
So while Bun in the Oven's art has stayed pretty steady in the last 6+ years, Va Va Womb has chopped and changed a bit in the types of content in the last year though hopefully I've maintained the quality.
I'm also proud that through Va Va Womb that I've developed an additional art style for myself. Part of this has just happened natural, some has been wanting to doing my own take of Hentai manga art but different. It was also a conscious decision to set my art style apart from the flood of AI generated images that clog up Deviant Art and other places.
In taking the decision to work less days for my day job I knew I'd need to make up the difference financially. This has worked for quite some time but since the start of 2024, the amount of patrons supporting me has sadly declined significantly and for the most part because many of them are feeling less secure in the financial situation and have chosen to cancel or dip into membership less frequently.
While I've not made a final decision, it's likely that from November I will be returning to my day job as 5 days - Monday to Friday. My art will be pushed to the weekends and any spare evenings.
For Bun in the Oven this probably won't result in a change as it ran this way from 2018 to 2022 anyway. What it means for Va Va Womb is likely more changes (again! sorry). I would like to keep going with Va Va Womb as I enjoy the art I'm doing for it and I'm very excited about new art coming up next month and beyond. I'm probably going to change the tiers for Va Va Womb, reducing the price of the tiers to reflect a reduced quantity of artwork each month.
I really appreciate everyone supporting me as an artist. Thank you!
Lots more great stuff coming.
