With that, I think I've kind of expended the fun of these speed-sketch bug monsters.
Any future additions to the Arthropoids will be full-blown color entries, and there are certainly a number of arthropods who still deserve th...

I googled both "Reapersessor" and different spelling variations and there were NO results for me??? How did nobody else already use this name to death?

This sketch doesn't look great because it's so tiny in person and blown up a bit, but I thought the design came out just right on the first try and didn't want to mess it up trying to do bigger and more detailed.

Until further notice, anything that would have been for $10 patrons and up will be for all patrons, while the more secretive up-and-coming Awful Hospital sketches and ideas will be for all patrons $20 or over.
If you're pledging $30, you can now suggest something EVERY month for me to turn into a simple character that will be canon with the universe of Awful Hospital, Harmburger and all conn...

A thoughtless scribble turned into something I like enough to maybe work into Mortasheen somehow. I even named it already!
Its "eyes" are just a pair of huge stinkhorn fungi.
Maybe it really has three separate bodies under there.
You know all those scenes in cartoons where someone's lost in a forest and starts freaking out, seeing scary faces in all the trees?
This monster causes that exact thing to happen, so people will stay out of its woods!

I was thinking of the more outrageous designs you see in Tokusatsu monsters, and came out with this lamprey-limbed, two-faced brain eater.
I plan to dump really rough ideas like this more often, but should they be public or patrons-only?
There may be dozens of them a month in some cases.

I'll be uploading four insect monsters in all this month, since I missed them in December, but then I might put them to rest in favor of something else - they're starting to blend together for me and get a little predictable...

Periphera pages are going to be a new AH feature for the Patreon, usually (but not always) replacing the character journals. They're various things going on during Fern's adventures, and are just like regular series pages,...
2016-01-13 22:26:42 +0000 UTC View PostYou all probably know this already, but the horror story submissions are now up and judged, which occupied most of my spare time for the first half of this month when I wasn't sick!
Soon I'll be starting a couple of new, different types of patreon content, but by the end of the month you can let me know whether to keep them or go back to other stuff!
Early in the concepts for the Mortasheen RPG (it's not dead!) we had a Jabba the Hutt expy, but it was TOO straightforward. It was pretty much Jabba with tentacles.
"Garbla" went through lots of drastic shifts in concept and style before finally becoming a lady anglerfish crimelord of the Gill-men (fish people)
One of the reader-submitted nightmares! I've got a few more to do; this is the longest Halloween II has ever gone on, but I've been hard at work on the new creepypasta archive and it's very nearly ready to post, after which you can expect a burst of special Awful Hospital patreon content!
Being able to make an income of any size for my dumb ol arts really gives me a feeling of success for the first time in my existence, you've really helped make 2015 one of my happiest and most confident years as an adult.
Maybe I've started stretching myself a little thin, though, with all the side stuff I've promised on top of multiple series updates per week.
Would anyone object ...

I'm not so sure I like how this one turned out, honestly. I still like the design, but not how it looks pasted over its feet, and its pose could have been a bit more interesting, like mid-waddle?

Bloodstain's got a bit of a fanboy on their hands
Another Mortasheen concept that's gone through a bunch of doodles, this one I was considering doing for this month's second monster.
Inspired by the Burbur from Dungeons and Dragons and my own speculation on it, this small, harmless looking monster would get all its nourishment from slime (as in the amorphous flesh-eating monster), so it'd barf slime onto things, let the slime devour the...

I've been drawing this bird-like humanoid with no upper jaw for a couple years now, and I think I've shared a different sketch of it before.
I want to use it in Mortasheen, but I just cannot for the life of me decide what kind of powers or abilities it should have. Its design doesn't really communicate a clear one to me, except that it surely has to do something with its "bite," or rather a ...

What's REALLY trapped in the garbage in Fern's hospital room? A whole other nurse! BUT WHY!?! We'll find out sooner or later.
Meanwhile, some doodles of another Hospital patient. Specifically, the guy from the Dr. Phage creepypasta, who you might recall is a big giant asshole.
Including this dude in the series is something I've flip-flopped on since it began. I always figured if he...

They're back!
The Wound is going to have a particularly silly purpose later on.
I'm catching up with processing this year's creepypasta submissions and brand new stuff for Awful Hospital, but the usual round of bonus content will be up over the next couple weeks!
SECRET patrons-only stuff for now!
Here's a zillion doodles of Dr. Fleagood because I still don't have his design down, even though he's been an idea since before Awful Hospital ever started.
He looks cool with jagged jaws, but TOO cool. I don't want him to be a cool insect monster. His concept is strictly the Pixar/Disney style "bug," with only the subtlest arthropod features and ...

This was going to be possibly the last boo-man for now, maybe I'll ink and color it tonight or this coming month.
Krook is a genderless Boo Man with at least two different minds (one in the hat), and their concept is like a shady used car salesman.
Krook can basically convince you to exchange anything they want for anything they want you to have, even something that'll clearly dest...

The sketches I scanned and went over for the mutant-corpse-parade in AH differ only a little bit here and there.
The only ones totally left out were the pair of floating eyeballs, the hopping leg and the tiny little microfern. I guess I felt like they were getting weird enough as-is, and disembodied body parts are more of a Hospital Patient thing.
A Mortasheen concept that might be a little too busy. I feel like I should reduce the body even more to a vestige, maybe more of a slithering thing.

Ampibious and Suckerpunk are "bonus" monsters for this month, carried over from October's huge patronage!
Both are electricity-based battlers, which the setting needed a few more of. They're also both slimy, amphibious things.
