Junk Shot Batch 2 - the Batchening
Added 2023-04-05 10:28:30 +0000 UTCI need to make an exception, I fear. Usually my Patreon buffer is pretty long, but these have a lot of potential to help me grow my audience - so I'll be releasing them pretty soon. As family support will be cut this summer I want to do whatever I can to ramp up demand (Marketing is not my strong suit), and I'm honestly proud of these in many optimistic ways - They didn't take me ages, they were fun, and they might be something people will really want. It's a blooming of activity after a hard winter? Could you say that? Haha.
First one here is for Valez and Wanderlust. Extra mess, smooth 2-day turnaround. Started with values. Second one (Ryke) took a few attempts. Request was a psychedelic theme and I screwed it up, so I went back to all greyscale and totally transformed it - But the dots and the way the shadow sometimes dissolves into the background is a good continuation of the psychedelic/spiritual theme I want to expand on - which is why I will be putting that one out asap. With Virion I did my first sounding piece like this, and while I did have to fiddle and re-paint at one point I basically managed to do the majority of this in a single sitting, which I instantly followed up with a confident "last push" on Fozu's piece there - the fourth one - just yesternight. Fozu had been stuck for the longest out of all of them. Sometimes when you're sinking, you gotta set yourself a deadline for "right now." Overall, the results these show are promising. I will need to open for more. Patreon supporters should get early access to the next batch opening for April :)
