Hello Azerothicans!

I wanted to give a little spotlight to my good friend Shina from World of Porncraft, who has finally taken the plunge and created his own SubscribeStar page!

Anyone who has followed Azerothica for a while will probably already know Shina. His artwork has appeared here many times over the years, including anniversary pieces, Christmas artwork, commissions, and plenty of other wonderfully lewd World of Warcraft creations.

Shina and I have also known each other for many years, so I am genuinely happy to see him trying something new that could help support his artwork and hopefully give him more opportunities to create again on a regular basis.

His new SubscribeStar is intended to help support the continued creation of his artwork, with plans for monthly Assumi art, NSFW World of Warcraft digital artwork, and 3D work.

If things go well, Shina would also like to bring back community requests and, perhaps most excitingly for those who remember the older days of World of Porncraft, eventually return to making comics again.

That last part especially caught my attention.

A lot of us have been around this little corner of the Warcraft community for a very long time. Azerothica has been online since 2011, while World of Porncraft goes back even further, and there is something rather nostalgic about seeing some of these old projects still alive after all these years.

The internet has changed enormously since the days when NSFW WoW websites, nude patches, forums, fan art and strange little independent communities were scattered everywhere. Many of those places have disappeared over time, so I think there is something worth celebrating whenever one of the old creators decides they want to start producing more again.

And of course, Shina’s Assumi has become something of a familiar face around here as well. She has appeared alongside Esidien in several pieces over the years, including our Christmas artwork, so I suspect quite a few Azerothicans already know exactly who she is.

If you enjoy Shina’s artwork and would like to support him directly, you can find his new SubscribeStar here:

You can also read Shina’s own announcement over on World of Porncraft:

SubscribeStar is finally here!

Supporting independent artists is ultimately what allows them to spend more time creating the weird, sexy and wonderfully niche things that communities like ours exist to enjoy.

So if you have enjoyed Shina’s work over the years, whether it was Assumi, World of Warcraft artwork, the old comics, commissions, or any of the artwork featured here on Azerothica, consider giving his page a look.

I am certainly curious to see where he takes it, especially with the combination of his traditional 2D artwork and the newer 3D/Blender work he has been experimenting with.

Good luck with the new SubscribeStar, Shina!

And hopefully this means plenty more horny Warcraft art for all of us in the years ahead. =)
