We sail Onwards to 2026
Lately I’ve been thinking a lot and it’s clear: I know how to draw comics but I am a fool who only knows how to draw them comics. I don’t know how to promote, manage or sell them. I pour everything into creating pages and stories but running Studio NICE, curating content, organizing rewards, promoting releases, managing multiple series is growing beyond what one person can handle.
That is why my 2026 goal is simple: stop being a coward suffering from the delusion that raw effort alone is good enough for you. I need to accept that I can't do it all myself and start building a team of supporters who complement what I lack as an organizer, community manager, and Patreon content planner. I am doing this because you, the supporters who make all of this possible, deserve timely, organized content and a thriving community that feels alive and engaged. Together, this team will help make the most of what you give and support Studio NICE in reaching bigger milestones.
If you think you are the person this community needs, someone who can help organize, plan, promote or manage content for the benefit of all supporters, I want to hear from you. I am looking for people already part of this Patreon community who are excited to help shape the next chapter of Studio NICE.
My love for creating comics has not changed and neither has my appreciation for every single one of you. This is about taking us to the next level while staying true to what brought us together, the comics, the stories, and the community.
Looking to the future, I can already see one milestone shining ahead: bringing the comics you supported into existence out of the screen and into a physical form, ready for you to hold, explore, and enjoy. This is a goal I believe is possible with the support of a dedicated team working alongside me.
Thank you for sticking with me, enjoying my work, and trusting that I want to do better not just for myself but for all of us.

Awesome! I think your comics are really good and could be reaching a much wider audience than what you are currently receiving. I'm not sure what it would take to get there, but I'm glad you're going to work to outreach in another direction.
i am a new member. going through a rough time and your work has really put a smile on my face. i shall be subbing soon. thank you for all you do
Just knowing my work can put even a small smile on someone’s face is what keeps me inspired to keep doing what I do, and I’m genuinely rooting for you. Thanks for being here.
If you ever do get to the point of getting some books done…. for the US side anyway, I can lend some help. I’ve got a bit of experience on small scale jobs with a great company that can get the work done, plus all the shipping and such.🫡
I’m planning to focus on phase one first, consolidating my online readers into a solid fanbase that will be ready to back the physical book before moving forward, and I’d love to get your advice once I’m there.
Sensible logic! I will be cheering you on from the comments as I have no capability with any of those my self either😅
Have a great 2026!
Best wishes for a great new year! I love your work and hope to see more of it ^^ Together we got this 💪
Damn, I am REALLY looking forward to the future of Studio NICE. Keep up the wonderful work!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS 🙌 I’ve been wanting to do more for support for this community/STUDIO Nice for a while. It’s an amazing opportunity to learn and also grow with someone you’ve supported for years and give back to them by helping their dreams. Making this project/these comics a team effort with a few people really shows how amazing and grown this whole thing has become. It would truly be an honor 🫡
Oh I’d love to have your books in physical. It just hits differently.
