January Week 3 Update

Added 2022-01-17 20:28:02 +0000 UTC

Henlo, happy Monday! Let's get right to it.

Last Week

Most of last week was spent on those YCH backgrounds I mentioned. I think three is enough, here's a preview of what I have.

This Week

I want to get The Vineyard and The Dungeon YCHs listed on Twitter ASAP so I will be finishing those up first. Then I'll work on the Sultry Summer illustration, which currently is a highly developed sketch. The Flower Cart YCH will follow that in terms of priority.

Side note: A lot of this work was streamed, so a good way to access me and get sneak peaks is to follow me on Picarto. I don't turn a big crowd there so even if my mic is off I chill and take questions about art process and the like.

Other Stuff

Nothing is set in stone but of course I'm already brainstorming for Feb/March. Standard disclaimer this is all contingent on me staying on schedule this month. In no particular order:

Heavily considering making some tutorials using material generated from the YCHs. I've thought a lot about tuts and teaching comes naturally to me. I might be gauging interest for this sort of thing soon.
Hammering out v4 of the outline for the Hal comic. Who knows what will happen but I really like this version and all I need are a couple good writing sessions to complete it.
Perhaps the most nebulous thing on this list is my need to develop a "quick style." I'm having a blast with painting but it would be more sustainable if I could balance it with lighter projects that take less time and cover more prompts. I'll probably experiment with cleaned up sketches and flats for this at some point.

That's it, that's the post!
