(AD) Opinions
🕑 Added 2017-07-10 20:34:23 +0000 UTC Just an update from my end. Today a Patron asked me what I thought about a particular 3D model "made" (ripped) by someone else. He really liked the person that did the model "upgrades" and asked my opinion.No lie, I gave my opinion. I think it's bad. And it's bad because it's stolen.
I have little-to-no respect for those that rip game models out of games and "adjust" them for porn. I think, first of all, that it's theft, and I'm constantly raising eyebrows that there aren't issues with that brought up by the game developers. Why I say this is because I spent a decade constantly worrying about using names from games, and vague likenesses. I assumed the day would come where I got a cease-and-desist, but it hasn't happened yet. Nowadays, people are just ripping off games left and right, so I'm less afraid. But still, I really want to make original content, and I'm very excited when you guys give me a lot of positive feedback for my original creations (such as Alexis, Ariadne, Fortune, and Marlene).
Unfortunately, my opinion wasn't well-received by the person asking. Which really led me to wonder why I felt compelled to give it in the first place. I mean, yeah, it was asked, but who cares what I think?
So I apologized to him and I apologize to all of you if I'm short, curt, or unresponsive. There's a reason I hired the lovely Marlene. She's beautiful, friendly, and a whole lot better at communicating my creations and plans than I am. I'm just a stressed-out workaholic that needs to chill.
What I'm very good at though is creating good stuff you guys like. I promise, really good stuff is coming.
I'll let Marlene give you the details, though. :)
If you have any questions please send me a message directly. But honestly, unless you're ready to hear it, don't ask my opinion. Apparently I can't control myself.

The Path you have chosen in the last Weeks is definitly a good Choice! Also i agree in the Point: "unless you're ready to hear it, don't ask my opinion". I follow you now for...i dont even know, when the first "Airy"-Pics started on Deviant (a decade?) and since then there was always improvement and still it is - so im sure, that on one day, this will pay youre rent and all the rest. You deserve it. To build that 'Model agency' seems to me as a really smart way to get there! Still im wishing you all the best and im sure it wont be long before more and more people will follow and support you and we can say 'we knew those Characters before there were famous' :)

I 100% respect your stance. The models used in SFM work were made by artists as well and it isn't right to use them (although a lot of people do) for profit. I think it is incredible that you make your own models, and they look/pose/move much, much better than any SFM material. This post only reinforces your image as an upstanding artist. I wish you all the best and wish I could be supporting you more. Cheers!

Thanks Fairfax. Honestly it's just life stuff, you guys know I've gone through a lot these past few months, lost jobs, new jobs, lost jobs again. Tech is tough. That's why I work so hard on this. I pray some day I won't have to deal with that crap anymore and just do this which I love. I'm trying out there. Ok. I'll let Marlene do some talking for awhile.

I appreciate this post for several reasons and feel compelled to respond with a few points. I know I'm speaking for myself here but I'm sure that there are other patrons out there that would agree with the following: - I enjoy both your original characters as well as you inspired ones. Your original creations are new and exciting and it's fun to see them grow and develop, while your other inspired creations, such as the SWTOR characters, allows that relationship we developed while playing the game to continue, along with obvious "benefits" ;D that the original game never afforded. - I think the modeling agency thing is a great idea because it will give us that level of connection and familiarity with all the characters that we already know and appreciate. That's what it's really about here (at least in my opinion), that genuine erotic art. There's plenty of "just porn" elsewhere. - While I love the new role Marlene has taken, it's also refreshing to here from the man himself, especially with posts as authentic as this one. Keep the Marlene thing going for sure, and keep us up to date with the real AD as well. - The 2017 Summer series has been f***ing legit. If what's to come is anything like, consider me excited; bring it on.
