Behind the Scenes: February Part 2

Added 2024-03-02 07:30:13 +0000 UTC

We're a week away from Tucson Festival of Books! There are stacks of books all over the house, and so many people are prepping for catgirl cosplays at Game On Expo. I can't wait to hang at both!

The test table went great:

I sold 3 pins from my kitchen

And outside of the conventions, there's a ton more happening behind the scenes!

New Pixels

We have new pixel art for Cannoli in her Saoirse robes and Melly! Both done by the always-amazing Kiora.

Cannoli will have to gradually earn those sapphires and the gold on her robes. And Melly will return to the front lines very soon.

Tarot Cards

We're in the final approval stages for the Justice Card featuring Zahra and Sanrai! A huge thank you again to WhiteCat Arts, SkySom, and DiscountDan for making this incredible project a reality. I'll post the full res next week. Here's our list so far of which cards are finished and which are in the future:

0. Matt as the Fool

Monthly NSFW Artworks

After the Patreon feedback survey, one additional commitment I made was to get a monthly NSFW piece out there. I had an art piece of Melly commissioned on skeb for January that I'm hoping will be finished in the next few days. But I teamed up with AridanBlack and took a slot every month to ensure that you get them on time. February's was Jazz, March will be Yomi/Belial, and April will feature Naeemah.

If you have any requests or ideas, feel free to leave them in the comments, message me, or drop them in the club patreon chat on Discord!

Ravyn and Matt's Stream

Ravyn and Matt are back to streaming, diligently ruining everyone's expectations of Baldur's Gate 3, and chucking pawns from cliffs in Dragon's Dogma. Be sure to drop their Twitch channel a follow and join in on the madness.

We also worked with Racknar, the artist who created the Everyone's a Catgirl! title logo, and made up a graphic design for the Baka Brigade:

We'll get stickers (and possibly t-shirts, as a few people have asked) set up soon.

Monthly Acrylic Pins

Keke's pin arrived at last! I'll be packing her up and shipping them along with the Volume 3 paperback books this weekend.

March's pin will feature Matt for St Patrick's Day! Maon should have a sketch for me this week. More info on how to get the acrylic pins here.

Cailu vs. Magni Art

DiscountDan offered to sponsor one of the coolest art pieces for the series yet: the battle between Cailu and Magni. Shira did such an incredible job drawing the guys that we decided to wait for her commissions to open. She's read the battle twice now and is working with me to get as close as possible to the scene. We received the first sketch this morning:
