And we've got the second character done! 4 more to go of the main ones (and then of course all the secondary ones).
The 10$ tier people had a say in who to do next, and it was a pretty clear vote for Samuel. Who in the process became a maned wolf instead of the german shepherd that I actually planned. Not quite sure why my brain went maned wolf, but by the time I realized my mistake I alread...
What is this? A commission?! We still do these?!
Made for gmRader of the character Juksusdi from the cartoon Inage'i, a children's animated show in cherokee language and about their culture and all that.
He's one of the three main characters in it, though of course younger in the show, and much more stylized. So we wanted to give basically a young adult interpretation in my style and ...
Next character in the works. Samuel was voted on, so Samuel it'll be this month.
Honestly rather happy because the design was the one I was most happy with in the sketch phase. So hopefully it'll be a great one when all is said and done. I think Rajeeyah will end up getting adjusted after this one. as I think I'll find my footing for how I want them to look more firmly with this month's ...
Hey everyone.
Hope you are all doing well? We've got a bit of an early pack here, I'll be leaving for Nordic fuzzcon tomorrow morning, only returning late on the 27th, so February, because of the con, and just it's typical shortness is a bit of a compromised month.
I did already mention in the 5$ pack, and it is even more of a quandry here.
Ideally I don't ...

Hey hey, another little thing related to the Conway game. New for the 10 bucks tier is some voting power here and there, and so let's start with this one.
(Even though nobody really joined in the 10 bucks tier since the game release, so there is a very real chance that this isn't really super interesting to any of you. :D )
But, yeah, I do want to get one of these character Illustrati...
Figured another WIP is probably a fun idea. This is the sketch for a current commission. Probably won't actually get to finish it in february because of Nordic Fuzzcon coming up, but this is going to be one of the next upcoming things once he's finished.
Enjooooy
And we have the first proper artwork for a character in the game.
Rajeeyah (Pronounced more like Ra-jyah )
The oldest character of the bunch (not her age, but how long the character existed), even before Nomax came to be, though the two were close.
She really was the catalyst for wanting to dip into more thorough storytelling moreso than Nomax himself. But then I just enjoyed...
And we've finally got the vote sketch for january. This time i actually managed to remember to take a bunch of progress shots.
All in all a bit of a picture of two halves. I knew it'd be a picture more complex than the one i did before, which were mostly portraits or pretty simple landscapes.
So a full body picture on a pretty small canvas, that also is rather rough, making it tough ...
I gotta figure out a better name for that...Can't just have these posts be titled that every time. But we'll see...
Anyway, with the dust settled of the initial release I figured it's time for a sneak peek for what the future brings with the upcoming public release down the line.
Honestly, first one will be pretty small with just a release for android devices!
Some people were ...
Hey everyone!
Honestly, this is a bit of a stop-gap update. Since this tier and above are for early releases, but the initial release came out simultaneously, I am in a situation where I have to pad things out a bit. The dreaded filler arc!
I could have probably included this one into the initial release, but when doing the compiling for Android it threw up a message of needing ad...
Hey hey,
Hope you are all doing well?
Alright, didn't really do too much art, so I don't have much when it comes to nifty PSD files.
I didn't treat them with too much care tbh, so I don't have everything. Samuel's psd file for example is just missing because I saved another one over it by accident...
Torres is just one single layer that i bashed together quickly. Don't plan...
Hey hey,
with the VN being the publically released project there isn't much else to put into this pack. But to not have you sitting entirely empty-handed here I've chucked in the two paintings I used for the thumbnail and main menu art.
And hey, if you're one of the newer peeps then you might not have seen these ones when they were released. :)
And of course, I also gotta get...
Hey hey,

Alright, so didn't really do too much art, so I don't have much process related stuff here, but i did toss in the Conway character placeholders. Traditional sketches for those that had them.
And sometimes early version/alternative versions.

Hey everyone.
As promised yesterday I wanted to take the time and sit down to talk a little bit about the next steps as we advance with the VN project now on the scene.
What it means for you as someone who already subbed, what my plans are for it, and all that good stuff. Basically some housekeeping!
What will change?
Honestly? Most likely not a whole ...

My friends of the sun,
it is done! Well, "done" in the sense that it is the very first release in what (if it all goes well) will probably be a multi-year project.
You had the super duper rough version a few weeks ago, and this is that, plus a bunch extra.
It includes the entire first day, perhaps not fully polished to perfection, as I'm sure ...
Didn't like their initial quick placeholder designs, so they got some reworking done!
Feeling them much more now which is good. Certainly a good base to build from which is all I need em to be currently.
Hopefully within the next 2 or 3 days well, + sunday as my day off) I should have the first proper release done.
Hope you enjoy them!
Hey hey, forgot to make it an early one i just realized. Been so long since i had commissions open that it escaped my mind.
But yes you can fill stuff out here: https://forms.gle/ghvCpuHbxgrhviUT6
It's a pretty limited opening, only taking on 2 or 3 simple painting but if you want to grab one then do of co...
With this being an experimental month and you already getting the oil paintings as they happen, you got the VN a few days ago as well sooooo. I can't really magic much else out of my hat as at some point the hours of the day run out.
But we did get some stuff in here. One oil painting that i didn't upload yet, one painting from last year that i thought i would finish but potentially it'l...
Hey you all, with this being a bit of an experimental month i didn't really have anything publically released that i could give you in high res. So instead here, take this offering of one of the oil paintings that i've done in my experimentation with them.

Hey everyone!
Initially I wanted to wait a little bit longer with this but i think it might actually be a good time to put this out here, both to get some initial impressions, and give me some time to adjust course for the remaining 11 days of my January break.
So yeah! This is SUPER early. The earliest of early.
The whole visual part is basically non-existent yet ...
And another one, this one felt like a big swing in the other direction of actually knowing what i'm doing (kinda).
Note to self, less paint is more. So many videos i've watched (less about the painting process and more just the logistics behind it, with stuff like my safflower oil brush dip etc.) mention to always use a decent amount of paint...and yet what they don't mention is how quickly...
Hey hey everyone, bringing you a feedback video which mostly is about lighting and just generally a bit compositional thinking when having a full scene for a character.
Alongside that we also have some more unpacking for oil painting supplies. This proooooobably is the last unpacking video for the forseeable future. Aside from a small signature brush that i foolishly forgot to just inclu...
Another somewhat quicker one. Didn't have too much time that day so kept things pretty simple all in all.
I did initially want to fade it out to the bare linen both top and and bottom and use the linen as the area where the water becomes less reflective and darker, but didn't work out and didn't really feel like filling out the top then. Sooooo, only top remains unpainted!
Feel i am ...
Switching things up a bit to a landscape. It turned out a bit dark and a bit too saturated honestly. The lit trees i'm decently happy with, but the blues are just a bit too blue and could have done with some toning down.
It is pretty easy to fall in that trap given all the tube colours are just very saturated by default and while i very rarely use straight tube colours they still ...
Hey everyone!
Hope you had a good start to the year, got to eat some tasty stuff, relax a bit so that hopefully everyone's at least somewhat ready for 2023...if one ever can be.
With my january being very much filled with secondary projects it's a bit tricky to fill these packs tbh, so you'll just get another oil painting like you did all the other days i guess.
