Hi everybody!
I hope everybody enjoyed our April Fools joke on Friday (Escher Gulls). It wasn’t the most creative idea (since I did Escher Gills way back for EG’s 2nd April Fools) but given everything that’s happened recently with the pandemic and other depressing world events, I figured a light hearted joke might be nice to do for this year. I hope people had fun at least. :3
Anyway, it’s a new month so I wanted to thank all our March 2022 subscribers for all your incredible support!
Your support helps us keep the site up and independently hosted, allows us to make technical fixes and improvements to the site, and means that no matter what happens with our cross-posts to Tumblr due to Tumblr’s policy changes (such as the huge list of terms being banned on the iOS app), the site will continue to exist here on EscherGirls.com! We’ve had some old posts flagged by Tumblr as having adult content even though they don’t and while I’ve appealed, at least with the dedicated site there will always be an archive of those posts for people to see, regardless of what Tumblr decides.
Having our own site also allows us to make Escher Girls more accessible with things like image captions for the visually impaired (something that Tumblr has in its beta features, but those features also interfere with other things like Twitter auto-posting if they’re turned on and screws up some formatting issues). So, I’m very grateful for everybody that helps us keep the site going without needing to worry about what Tumblr does or allows us to do. <3
Patreon subscribers also get previews and updates of future content we’re working on or get asked to give feedback to test new site features before they’re released! For example, subscribers got a preview of Escher Gulls before the joke went live and could comment on it.
So without further ado a huge thank you to:

And I want to give a huge thank you to past subscribers and all our readers too! Thank you to all of you for reading Escher Girls, submitting things, commenting, and just generally interacting with the site. It’s always great to get new submissions or just feedback, and you all make running the site worth it. :)

9/18/21 - i fell in a brain hole and didn’t update for weeks
i have no clue why! i took the progress shots, I guess I just forgot to put them online? i thought it was the first week of september until suddenly it was over halfway through the month. Looked up and saw my last post was the second (EDIT: fourth, gah), even though I’ve been working every damn day on this thing.so anyway, here’s the stuff I was supposed to be posting this whole time. I’m actually 95% done with this page now, and while I was finishing up some shading tonight I realized i had saved all iterations of page 11 in another folder, and thus page 11 is actually 12, and so the current page is actually 13. All because (and i cannot stress this enough) i have brain problems. but fuck it, you know? i’m having FUN! :)
