OCTOBER NEWSLETTER

Hello all, to start off, I'm changing the naming convention of the newsletters, so at the begining of each month, i will call each newsletter by the new month, but still addressing what had went on in the previous month.

Happy Spooky month,

the biggest thing last month has to be that I tabled at Erie Comic Con! i kinda went over already in a previous post but it went well all things considered, i got to meet some new fans and some who had recognized my work from a local art show last year. i made 2x the table price so that's a success. i introduced original pieces to my table, mainly a bunch of pencil and ink drawings i had in my closet that i wrapped up and sold for super cheap ($3-$20). Maybe no one would buy them, i thought, but they actually ended up being the bulk of my sales over the weekend. i was making new drawings as i was sitting at my table and adding to the stack. it was quite a new a nice feeling that encouraged me to get back into drawing on paper more often. whatever what was left from my show I put up in my store and sold out shortly after so thank you very much! Look out for the next drop of drawings.

I really dig the tabling experience so I've been shooting my shot at applying to a bunch of largers cons on the east coast and a few out west coast. I'll report on the ones i get into and the dates.

as for last months goals

• Print artbook
• new remastered illustration for smut-life zine
• finsh penciling last VS pages and start inking
• Elster drawing + take new drawing poll
• draft out new illustrations
• storyboard new animatic short

I unfortunately only hit a few of these, my riso guy went on vacation, i decided I should worry more about finishing VS than making stuff for Smut-Life zine at this very moment.

As for VS, i have technically finished pencils, as i have got to the last page, but i still need to go back and fix some stuff. I inked a page of VS for my grant in august and to get a feel for how the comic will look. you can see it in full in my deluxe tier and up.

Elster is on her way, I have some larger plans for her as far as illustrations go. I've just got so much going on and i keep starting new things...

i have started boarding a new HLA animated short and a lewd gif ft my OC, Dr. Essie Xing. progress on these will be available for patrons to see.

The things i didnt hit were more of a result of me proritizing some larger projects I've been collabing on for some time now. I've jumped back into concept art for the HL2 mods ive been contributing to. I'm not sure if im allowed to share the work yet but I've started doing some char design work for Urban Chaos. check 'em out! the trailers are pretty damn cool if you ask me.

October Goals: Gonna keep it short

• Completely have all the VS pages ready to be inked and start inking
• make more headway on the animations
• progress on SIGNALIS illo
• progress on new Sniper GAL illo

And now for Spicy (+18) news:

Did a commission request from the Digital Love (+18) tier featuring resident hottie, Alyx.

once a month, you'll get a simple digital b+w drawing of a subject or character of your choice. sfw or nsfw!

I made a couple new sexy friday illos as well as done some more work on my newly named OC, Dr. Ellie Xing, a super intelligent, 60s inspired scientist/cosmonaut in an erotic interstellar story.

That's about it! I can't wait to share with you all the various things I've been working on.

See ya in November.
