Personal Update

Hey guys!

AFK
I'm going away for a few days! Haven't seen my family since Christmas now, it's been a while. I'll be coming back late on the 4th, and I don't know how much time I'll have to be online, so the rewards will probably be sent out later than usual. 

APARTMENT

Happy Midsummer Fire Festival!

Midsummer Fire Festival is here! Embrace the spirit of summer by honoring your faction's flame and exchange Burning Blossoms for neat things.

I honored the spirit of summer with this piece. I've never done compositional piece like this before. Never painted a worgen before either! Always nice with a new learning experience....

Physical rewards: Shipped

The parcels will usually reach Europe within 3 to 5 working days. And the rest of the world usually within 5 to 7 working days.

Apologies for the late shipping! June has been crazy swamped with redecorating house and tablet breaking down and this intense heatwave that's going on in the UK the last days. Hopefully July will be better ~

May Mystery Chest - what was in it?

This month the contents varied slightly depending on your tier. 

Originally I was going to have the Wonder Woman painting only as A4 for everyone, but  I like it so much that I decided for the Combo Patrons it deserved to be A3 size! 

May's Theme was Wonder Woman. She is by far my favourite comic superhero and I am stoked for her movie in June! Thanks to View Post

Commission for Sserpentmoon

Here it is! The finished painting for @Sserpentmoon on twitter. This is the first time I've painted a dragon, but it turned out alright.

This will be in June's digital rewards!  

I've also got a timelapse that's up on youtube.

Anyway, I can't choose which backside I want - please help me decide!

Mays Theme: Wonder Woman

best superhero, case closed, no competition

she's usually displayed with a one handed sword and shield, but I'm gonna pull the artistic lisence card and portray her with a two handed sword.

She was the main attraction in May's Mystery things, being a bookmark, A3 and A4 print. The bookmark was exclusive, but you can 2017-05-14 10:19:00 +0000 UTC View Post

A personal update

I've never really posted much about my personal life here on Patreon. That's because my life is incredibly boring, mainly just drawing and playing games all day.

But now I've got a lot of art related thoughts in my mind and I figured some of you might want to know!


I'm moving!

The time is finally here! My boyfriend and I have been saving for months, and fi...

April Mystery Chest - what was in it?

This month the Mystery Chest was quite special - and took me several days to put together!
