HIATUS! No billing in November!

As the title says it - I've stopped Patreon billing for November so I don't need to stress about not delivering pages. I'll still update if I find the time to draw the next page, so stay tuned <3

(this excludes new members)

WIP TS - Page 153

Hi everyone,

First of all, I'm terribly sorry I'm not able to deliver two finished pages this month. This is how far I got with the second one (sorry that Airam is escaping the scene, I know it's not what you were hoping for... ;D)... The reason? Work has been insane this semester. I have almost double the lessons per week from the usual (I would have gladly deni...

We have made first contact..! ;o

Outdoor Sauna (TS NSFW comic)

This is not canon (at least not yet ;D), but here's a little treat for you all: an anonymous commission of the boys visiting Tauski's parents! What happens in the outdoor sauna stays in the outdoor sauna, right?

Full resolution and knotty versions will be available for Hound tier next week after I've survived FinFur Animus (the Finnish furry con!).

I DEFINITELY DIDN'T DRAW THIS PAGE AT WORK (I actually did, living on the edge 😎). It's stll been crazy hectic at work and during my free time, so I used every little break or exam supervising sessions to draw.

I only now managed to read all your lovely comments on the previous page, thank you! <3 Hopefully this page continues to make you happy and excited. ;3

Looks like it costs more than just a kiss... >:3

I was stupid and started sketching the next page while supervising an exam.. Had to stop before I got too excited. xD

Don't pick a fight with someone bigger than you. >:3

TS - Page 148

Sorry for the longest wait! The past 3 weeks at work have been so crazy I feel like I've been the under dog in a cage fight... x_x I'll try to make it up to you with three updates next month as things should calm down at least a little..

TS - Page 147

Date time! :3

The movie might have been great, but their space ship design were awful (sorry, I didn't want to spend too much time on it so I didn't use any references). xD

Art Fight 2025, traditonal art & WIP (TS NSFW)

Art dump for this summer, mostly traditional art!

1) A redraw for my dear friend Kobra of a traditional badge I had drawn for him in 2017. Unfortunately the badge had ended up in the void where all lost badges go during conventions, so I finally redrew it for his birthday. Loved working on it, even though I noticed only after I started painting that my alcohol marker proo...

Geraa refsheet (NSFW) with WIPs

Here's a patron reward commission for Geraa, a reference sheet for his fursona! This was my first time drawing a bolf, so it was a challenge to make the character look like it has features from both a wolf and a bear.

The commission included character design, and I always enjoy discussing ideas with the commissioner to bring their character to life. As you can see from the WIPs, there w...

Hi everyone! Poor Tauski seems pissed... :3

Sorry it's been so quiet here. I started doing some renovations for my workroom (mainly building a shelf into a niche so I can store my art supplies better), and it's been so insanely hot I have no energy to do anything productive or creative. x__x Therefore.. just happy coloured backgrounds for this page xD

Important Notice to Park Visitors

Dusk aka Blue Dog with a lemon gun asked me to redraw this gem, and I definitely had fun with it! :D All you cats out there - you are important and amazing!

TS Concept Art: Rain Reference Sheet

Sorry, I'm spamming you with art! :D I'll post art fight pieces in bigger posts, so you won't get spammed several times during July. Anyway, here's a long overdue reference sheet for my tall lynx boy Rain! The lineart is really old, probably from a few years ago, but it was still decent enough to use to finish the ref sheet. :')

Rain has been with me for almost 20 years,...

Art Fight 2025

Last year I couldn't really participate in Art Fight because I was traveling for work most of July, but this year I'm feeling inspired and ready! Bring it on! My page: https://artfight.net/~Gaikotsu

I had fun fitting my fursona with a wolf skull. Her name (Gaikotsu) means skeleton and her markings got inspiration from ...

NSFW Draw-over for Istences + WIPs

This was my second draw-over commission ever and I had SO much fun with it. I got to freely choose any of Istences' pictures, and this pose spoke to me most~ (also, you should check out #justthestripes on Mastodon to get more of this tiger, you don't need an account to view)!

There are two versions, one with the ...

Victory + NSFW sketches

A birthday gift commission for Kip! Loved this theme as I've been training martial arts for more than half my life. :3 Once again with WIPs from rough sketch to shading!

The last three files are NSFW sketches for Istences of a drawover commission. I'll most likely finish a couple of them, but first in line is the one on the bed! Which one is your favourite?

TS - Page 145

An update before I escape civilization for Finnish midsummer!

Wolf no Uta (ウルフの歌) translates to "Wolf's Song" in case anyone was wondering (and yes I know, ウルフ isn't really wolf in Japanese, just a way to write the English word with katakana). Airam has worn this shirt before in the comic, and I even made a t-shirt for myself with the t-rex skull design he wore in the com...

Embarrassement (NSFW mini comic)

Patrons get early access for this piece - a patron reward commission of Tauski and Airam! Looks like someone is really embarrassed, yet their body won't lie~ ;3c

(full resolution + knotty versions will uploaded at the end of the month for hound tier & up)

EDIT: It was pointed out Tauski looked too ripped, so I softened the shading to make him look ...

TS - Page 144

Oops, turns out this shirt wasn't the best choice.. :3c

Concert (with WIPs)

Airam had never received such a perfect gift before Tauski got him tickets to Kaz's concert.

I was over the moon when Linny commissioned me to draw her fursona singing on stage! Of course I HAD to include Airam in the audience, since Kaz is his favourite artist (you can see her LP and poster on his apartment wall on page 31).

I think I learned a lot drawing this piece, and ...

Scandy Reference Sheet (with WIPs!)

Here's a reference sheet commission for Scand Hoovian! This was such a a cute character to draw <3 In the WIPs you can see my work process, from rough and messy sketch to cleaner one, then lineart (I usually add colours right after that), and then finishing touches. ^^

TS - Page 143

I'm so sorry for the wait! I finished the lineart and base colours at the meetup, but couldn't find more quiet time to finish the shading... :') I also stayed up too late and slept too little thanks to my amazing friends, so I was too tired to finish even after returning home. However, now I've got work related stuff sorted out and I can focus on art! Art summer 2025 here I come! (there...
