It's a Patreon Update for February Twenty-Twenty.

Hey, guys. Not a ton to say, so I'll say what I need to say.The Suggestion Pool will go up later this afternoon (after I schedule the post) and everyone will be able to participate in that as per usual. The Suggestion Pool Poll will go up the week after. Nothing's changed there.I'll be sending the requests for everyone in Silver and Gold either today or tomorrow for their sketches. Spe...

Amethyst.

I only vaguely have an understanding of the first season of Steven Universe and I have no idea what happens next. It's all just a blur to me, though. She was fun to draw up, though. I think I've only ever done SU art a couple of times, but that's been YEARS ago.Thanks for your votes, patreons!

Ninja Rabbit.

I've been digging into his design and adding little details here and there. I don't really want to add anything else - otherwise it'd get too cluttered - but I like what's here right now.He's fun. I like him. I should probably name him.

Coats.

A birthday drawing and a drawing of Finch in her winter attire from my webcomic series, Salvadora.

Bombs and Blunts

First commissions of 2020.

2020

Happy New Year, everybody!

A Proud Christmas

The vote was a mom of my choice in Christmas attire.I chose Trudy Proud because most people don't.Merry Christmas.

Radiant Sketches | December 2019

The final radiant gold sketches for the year, which will be mailed off either tomorrow or Christmas Eve, depending on either when my internet get fixed or I get fed up and do everything at the post office.Thanks for being radiant gold, Bibbler and LouieKablouie!

Shimmering Sketches | December 2019

The final set of silver sketches for the year.Thank you, Shimmering Silver backers:Slim, Fatoler, and Sylvin!Gold sketches will be coming soon after my new router and modem come in. Having to upload all of this through the phone is kind of a pain. I might need to invest in a USB-C to USB-A converter.Things can't be easy, sometimes.

Courtney O'Neil

A warm down piece that was sitting on my desk for most of yesterday.

Dump.

Here's a bunch of art I've made over the past week or so.Most of them are commissions, some of them are personal work.

Radiant Sketches | Nov 2019

Thanks to Bibbler and LouieKablouie for being Radiant Gold this month!Here are sketches featuring Lucia of Final Fight 3 and Street Fighter V fame and Vess from Dark Horse Comics' Invisible Kingdom!

Mai Shiranui

...or I'll just post it up today and then post it publicly on Thursday.Whichever works, y'know?

Gold Sketches will be sent off on Tuesday.

Just letting it be known that the work will be sent off tomorrow.This past week has been filled with a lot of family related issues and I've had to balance a lot of that with the rest of my obligations, so it's going to be shipped a day late.Apologies.

New Setups.

Hey, I've made changes to the tier system.The broad brush is that I've reworked some of the aspects of the original tiers and added in two new ones (or, technically, old ones).The old sketch tier and mailer tier return with new coats of paint!I had initially closed these due to time constraints, but my scheduling has gotten much better over the past few months, so I can reopen them again.I...

Happy Halloween.

Inktober: The rest.

I periodically dumped all of these over social media in the span of the past sixteen hours.Inktober's over. I drew 32 images in total.I'm going back to work on the piece for this month before the day's over.

Inktober: Xatra and Sunshine Savior.

Xatra. Unable to return home, took to farming thirstagram and internet clout to gain vanity points and topple her adversaries in a popularity contest. Sunshine Savior. A magical girl from her youth turned criminal. Despite her power, she tends to get left out.

Inktober: Finch and Gamma Cutie

I'm gonna catch up!Finch:The most capable hero whose always prepared to deal with any danger. Too bad that people don't always give her the respect she deserves.Gamma Cutie:BIG

Inktober: Admiral Awesome

Leader of The Heroic Institute of Costumed Crusaders (T.H.I.C.C.) in Salvadora. Probably my favorite character to actually draw in the comic.

Inktober: Turtle Monk, Stephanie, Valerie, and Sonichu.

Turtle Monk: Another nameless character. Living in the universe of the Monkey Princess. I drew him a while back and I'm just somewhat refining what I've already done. Stephanie: A character within Leah's world that I just never bothered to flesh out. She had much bigger hair, but I toned it down in an older sketchbook and chose to run with that design. I'll hopefully be able to do ...

Inktober: Casual Leah

I'd imagine that entire box is empty.

Inktober: Ninja Rabbit

Ninja Rabbit. He still doesn't have an actual name, which is funny, because I've been heavily considering putting him into the same world as my Monkey Princess, whom is also nameless.I'm going to finish Inktober before the month ends.Please, hold me accountable for this.

[update] Mailer Tier's Return.

Hey, everyone.I've been considering this for a while when it comes to what I can do going forward. While I have some ideas, I don't think I can get them in place with the time frame that I have, so I'm deciding to do something else. I know a lot of people enjoyed the mailer tier during its initial run, but due to my work schedule at the time and overall cost effectiveness, I had initia...

Inktober: 3, 4, 5

Excuse me while a do some catch-up.Rather than just upload a bunch of individual images, I'll make it easier on everyone's inboxes and combine all three of these into a single post.Skat, the Armadilla Sisters, and the Cactus Gang.I didn't get everything as nice as I wanted and I can see glaring flaws in all of these, but the point isn't about perfection, it's about improvement....

Inktober: Leah

Leah. A character with a lot of mixed feelings about herself. Never truly understanding her place in the world, but tries her best to fit in, despite that. Currently living alone with her dog and the only toy she remembers from childhood.

What makes a good patreon?

This is really just an open question for anyone whose willing to contribute their thoughts. I'm genuinely interested in some feedback about how and what people would be interested in seeing apart of the page going forward. I've noticed that things have been bleeding since May of this year, so I'd like to know what people would consider to be valuable rewards for a page like this, withi...

Sketchbook October: AKA Inktober

Hey, everybody. Sketchbook Saturday / Sunday / Wednesday is gonna get swallowed up by Inktober. So, I'm just letting you know. I'm going to spend the month working on pieces where I flesh out my characters a bit more. Been working on so much other stuff that I wanted to put more focus on the things I made.Also, these will all be public.

Dressy Leah.

It's still #cutiesaturday, right?Right.

Hey, everybody.

Ready for Sketchbook Sunday?
