Since I still have time before the new plan goes into effect, I thought I'd throw this out there!
I had a second thought about how to structure the exclusive posts on here -- instead of deleting older posts after 2 months and then having them available for purchase on Gumroad, what if I left all the old posts up forever? Then while you're pledged, you have access to the entire backlog of ...

I don't officially start doing these posts until next month, but since I had quite a few people switch their pledge to a higher tier already, I thought I might as well share what I'm working on!
Baiken is very good. I feel strongly about this.
The clothed sketch is very obviously a work-in-progress, but so is the nude version -- there's still a lot of cleaning to do, and I want to p...
2022-01-27 00:47:01 +0000 UTC View PostEDIT: Changed the feed exclusives to be available forever as long you're pledged -- I personally feel like this is a better reward for people who actually want to support me, and the consensus among Patrons was the same.
Wanted to outline the plans for my Patreon starting in February! Tiers will be updated and some of the current structure will change, hopefully all for t...

Skipped commissions entirely this week so I could catch up on other projects, plus I had IRL obligations, so not as much to share as usual -- but the stuff I do have is pretty cool!
1. Winter Walk (Super Smash Bros)
Finally finished the update to my poster from Frostbite 2020! Now all the female characters are there, including the DLC characters. I'll have this desi...

Only one commission this week, but I've been working on some lewd stuff for the upcoming rework of my Patreon and the debut of my Fanbox (a Pixiv platform similar to Patreon).
1. Ayumi (Vtuber OC): Tested out a new lineart brush with this and I really like how it turned out! I still default to my ol' faithful brush, but it's nice to have multiple options.

1. Lucina (Fire Emblem), Madoka Kaname (Puella Magi Madoka Magica), Caroline (OC): Cutting back on the profile pictures for awhile so that I can get some other stuff done this month! I really like how these turned out -- especially the Madoka.
2. Samus / Metroid Drip: This is a cleaned and separated version of the previous art that I did for prints. Could...

Happy New Year! A new piece of Chinese Zodiac art for 2022, plus the usual 6 commissions. Things will switch up starting next week, so please look forward to it!
1. Tiger / Raita (original) -- I tried a few different versions of this, but all had a yakuza theme. I liked the idea of horizontal tears on her jeans looking a bit like tiger stripes.
2. Sona (Leag...

Merry Christmas! Stay safe and have fun, y'all!
1. Bunny Crimson -- I drew this is in 45 minutes and I know it's a sloppy mess, but I wanted something to post for the holidays and I have no time, haha. I want to do a lot more with Bunny Crimson in the future. :)
2. Characters draw themselves meme -- saw this going around and the idea of the elementa...

1. Winter Waterfall (Kelda): This was originally an animation -- It was Kelda looking back at a waterfall with autumn leaves falling all around her and also floating down the river. It took me so long to finish that fall is long over and I made it a winter scene instead. I've drawn Kelda frozen solid for the winter, but not still awake and roving around. Had fun painting ...

1. Hsien-ko (Darkstalkers) -- I can't believe I've never drawn her before! She's such a great design. Glad I got the chance with this commission.
2. KDA Ahri + Christmas version (League of Legends) -- I made a real attempt to play Mid for awhile and Ahri was my go-to. Mostly because I pulled an Arcade Ahri skin from one of those Twitch Prime loot things. ...

Fewer profile pictures this week because I had another big commission to work on!
1. Lucoa (Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid) -- I love the Dragon Maid anime, this was really fun to draw.
2. Ramlethal Valentine Color Palette 10 (Guilty Gear Strive) -- Ram's the character I play in Strive, so of course I enjoyed drawing her. Original palette is my ...

Here are this week's drawings! I have not finished anything but commissions because I bought a house and that has eaten all my free time. Some really cool stuff, though!
Summer Robin (Fire Emblem Heroes)
Samus Aran (Metroid Dread)
Ramona Flowers (Scott Pilgrim vs the World)

Very very busy week, but I'm still getting stuff done! The Kelda Plush from Makeship is also now available at http://www.makeship.com/products/kelda-plush -- I've got 3 weeks to sell 200 of them in order to meet the minimum amount and get them produced, so please pick one up if you'd like!

1. Casual Samus (Metroid) -- This started as a redesign of my old Winter Samus art for a new print, trying to update her wardrobe a bit to incorporate elements of the Power Suit from Dread. After I sketched it out I thought, "actually, this is kinda cool all by itself" so I sketched out a rear view as well and cleaned/colored it. The kanji on the back of her jacket is the Japan...

Still grinding commissions! I've had a lot of big bills and commissions seem to be the only reliable way to get them paid. I'm going to do my best to get more personal work done as well, and I'm glad I have something to share this week, even if it's just a bunch of sketches.
1. Sketch sheet: I wanted something relatively relaxing to draw today, so I made a collage of all ...

My three commissions for this week! I'll be focusing back on commissions again because I had a major event that required immediate money. Wish I had more time and energy for personal/original work but that's the way it goes -- I'm lucky at least to have commission work available.

Only a couple pieces this week, but I've been dealing with the aftereffects of my latest medical procedure -- I have *another* procedure next week and two more after that and then I'm finally free to recover in peace. These aren't super serious procedures, but they're painful and distracting and I've found it difficult to get much thoughtful work done.

I'm finally back to making original art! I've missed it so much. In order to get back in the swing of things, I gave myself some restrictions:
1. Square canvas. 2. Limited color palette. 3. Randomly generated prompts.
Based on those guidelines, the first four pieces are what I did this week.
1. "ivory" -- this went through s...

1. Brenna (one of my elemental characters): Just a fun, quick sketch with a chunky canvas brush, all on one layer. This loose painterly style is something I'd like to explore more, but we'll see what happens. I love how it turned out, though.

I can finally share the artwork I did for Lobos Jr.! He wanted a new shirt design for his shop, and I wanted something I could also make into a print -- since he's well known as a streamer of FromSoftware/Soulsborne games, I did this collage of female characters from the series.
The only Souls game I haven't played is DS2, so the Emerald Herald was entirely based on the vibe of her offici...
2021-09-17 21:00:29 +0000 UTC View PostI finished a really cool piece this week, but it's for a T-shirt design that hasn't been revealed yet and I can't share it right now. I'll also have it available as a signed print in my own shop! I hope you'll enjoy it when I can post it.
I feel bad that I've got nothing to show you all again, but that's the way it goes working on commissioned projects sometimes. There are more cool thing...

A day early this week, since I'll be gone all day tomorrow visiting family on the other side of the state.
1. Discovery (commission of Dang, a Runescape character)

Rather than jumping back into profile picture commissions, I decided it was finally time to clear out my long-term to-do list. I have a few projects and commissions that I said "yes" to months (or even over a year) ago that I'd like to have off my plate, so this week I started chipping away at the first big one. I spent at least twice as much time drawing as usual, but because I didn't actually...
2021-08-27 22:12:36 +0000 UTC View PostHey, y'all! I took the week off from drawing to recharge and as such, I've got nothing new to share with you.

I don't have much to share this week! Two of my commissioners never responded, and I spent most of the day Wednesday at the hospital -- luckily all the tests turned out alright and I have a clear bill of health (with that particular issue, at least).
I'm also taking some time off from commissions and from art in general, at least a week or two. I haven't had much passion for drawing latel...

Just profile picture commissions from this week! I spent a couple hours today trying to get a fun sketch done, but my heart wasn't in it and nothing turned out.
