2026 resolutions: Permanent Price Drop, No More AI, and the Future of Andromeda
Hey everyone! 😎
As 2026 approaches, I’ve been looking back at the work I did this year—the good, the bad, and everything in between. It is that time of year for resolutions, and while I hesitated to make changes last year, I’m done letting fear hold me back.
I have a bunch of announcements for the future of BDz-art and the Andromeda World.
A Return to Roots: No More AI. You may have seen my recent thoughts on this, but I want to make it official: I am completely ditching the use of AI for my content. I honestly feel like I lost myself over the last few months trying to integrate it into the Milk Bearer chapter and the recent animations. The result wasn't what I wanted, and more importantly, it wasn't what you wanted. I realized I was wrong to drift away from the hand-crafted work you signed up for. Going forward, it’s just me, my tablet, and my skills.
Permanent Price Drop: We all know the economy is fluctuating, and recent global shifts have made the €/$ exchange rate terrible for many of you. I realized that Patreon’s exchange rates were mechanically driving up the cost of my higher tiers, and that’s not fair to you. I want my work to remain accessible, so I’ve decided to permanently cut the prices of my higher tiers by roughly 25%.
Tier 4: Dropped to $10 (previously ~$12.50)
Tier 5: Dropped to $15 (previously ~$18.50)
Tier 6: Dropped to $22.5 (previously ~$25)
The Andromeda World Roadmap: I am diving full-on into world-building. My goal is to bring you a completely new reading experience via the Andromeda App, which will include the new Comics Reader, the Codex, and the upcoming Character Creator game.
Annual Memberships are Live If you prefer to support me for the long haul (and lock in the new lower price), Annual Memberships are now enabled. 2 month offered if you chose this plan.
Bonus: If you grab a Tier 5+ Annual Membership, you will receive a bundle containing Chapters 5 through 9.
More sketches and work in progress.
Regarding Andromeda, I'm pausing Milk Bearer, since it has reached a decent number of pages for now. I will resume its continuation later: I am back on chapter 11.5. While I build the 3d environments that I will use for the various scenes backgrounds, I'm working on a illustrated diary of Lila, during her travel on the ship to Mermesii, exploring her growth day by day and how she lived it. This diary will serve as a prelude to the chapter. I'll be posting the first panels very soon! 😊
Thank you for sticking with me through the experiments and the changes. Let's make some great art! 💖
