Winter in Piltover [WIP Update 1]

Here it is, my first project of the new year, voted for by you guys!

I was a little nervous starting this one because it's pretty different than my usual. I can't remember the last time I tried to draw a snowy scene, let alone one that shows so much of the environment.

It's still a way's away from being done, so expect another WIP update before the final art goes up sometime next week. ...

January 18+ Poll (for February illustrations)

Swol Poll, part II! 

Same theme and options as the SFW poll, only this time our 3 chosen buff ladies will be drawn, well, in the buff.

You can vote for more than one option, so vote for your favorites and I'll draw the top 3 winners in order of popularity.

January SFW Poll (for February illustrations)

AKA The Swol Poll! 

Next month I'll be switching things up and presenting a themed month: Fit February! All through February, I'll be drawing workout-themed, pin-up style illustrations of buff ladies. So this month's poll features a number of our favorites as well as some new ones I've been itching to draw for a while.

Sorry if the number of options is a bit overwhelming, but there were quite a few ladies that came to mind and I figured this poll would also be a good way to g...

[COMIC] The Things We Do For Love (COMPLETE)

And here, finally, are the first two pages of my FFXIV-themed comic, starring Kihrae and Catalyna! Kihrae is my OC, while Catalyna is a friend's OC.

I'll be updating this post with new pages as I finish them. Since the comic will run 15 pages in total and I don't want to wait forever to share the comic publicly, I'll be making the last update's pages public with each new update. So these first two pages will be exclusive to patrons for the next few weeks, and will then ...

"The Things We Do For Love" [WIP Update 2]

More progress! I know I said this would be up by Monday, but I'm afraid Page 2 is taking a bit longer than I anticipated, and I ended up doing a few small corrections to Page 1, too. So the final post might not be up before Tuesday. Sorry about that!

2022 Recap

Happy New Year! 

I hope you've all had an awesome holiday season and you're as excited for the new year as I am. 2022 was a big year for me, since up until about a year ago, I'd mostly just horded my art, thinking no one outside of myself and my friends would be all that interested in seeing it, much less paying money for it.

But in late 2021 I finally decided to take a chance, and not only did I see my art really take off over the course of 2022, but a few illustrations even...

"The Things We Do For Love" [WIP Update 1]

And here, finally, is the work in progress so far on my new comic project featuring Kihrae and Catalyna. I also included a quick drawing of Kihrae I did as a warmup for this project. 

This first page is close to done, and since it went pretty quick and I still have time left before the end of the month, I'm going to do a second page as well before I go back to work on Tuesday. So you can expect the final versions of both Page 1 and Page 2 sometime this weekend, or possibly Monday. ...

Mistletoe - Happy Holidays!

And here's our holiday themed Harley Quinn and and Poison Ivy piece! I got through this one pretty fast so I included the WIP shots in the final post instead of separating them.

Since I've been trying to refine my style to more closely match 2D animated shows, I went with their designs from the Harley Quinn TV series.

Hope you guys like it, and that you're having an awesome holiday season!


Lastly, I've already gotten started on the second NSFW piece for this month...

Korrasami Day 2022: "Inner Spirit" [WIP Update 1]

Here's the work done so far on this piece!

Sorry for the silence during the past week, but as I said before, this one is gonna be a doozy and it took a bit more prep work than usual, so I didn't really have much to show until now. I don't often do thumbnail sketches or color tests for my art cus I usually have a fairly solid idea of what I want going into it, but this time I thought it was important I really nail down the colors and composition before I start.

December 18+ Poll (for January illustrations)

This month's NSFW illustration will be a "Part 2" of the illustration that will be chosen in our SFW poll. But since there's no way for us to know which option will win, I need to keep things kinda vague.

So, I'm bringing back the idea from a poll from a few months ago, and focusing on the elements ...

December SFW Poll (for January illustrations)

While we won't be seeing any Caitlyn and Vi in December, I'm planning to bring them back strong in January, with both a SFW and 18+ illustration! And I thought it'd be fun to go with the "Part 1 and Part 2" idea I did last summer.

So, here's the deal: January's first illustration will present a SFW casual/romantic situation for Piltover's Finest couple, and the 18+ illustration will be "Part 2", taking that situation to its spicy conclusion.

So go ahead and vote for the SFW concep...

November Recap

And another month dow- wait, it's been a full year! This month will be my first anniversary since officially launching this Patreon! Crazy to think it's already been a year, and what a successful year it's been! I want to thank all of you again for giving me your support. Things have actually progressed way faster than I anticipated when I first launched this page, and it's really given me the confidence I needed to keep working and improving my art, and take on projects that in the past I wo...

Arcane Anniversary

And here's the final art! This one came down to the wire, but I got it done before the end of November!

Now, it's time for bed. And then tomorrow I'll get started on the She-Ra drawing!

UPDATE 12/01: Did a tiny edit to make Vi's freckles more visible. They really weren't showing up well online.

Arcane Anniversary [WIP Update]

So, I'm very late, but here's the WIP so far on my Anniversary piece for Arcane!

I wanted to keep going with what I started on the Korrasami piece, and practice more dynamic poses and action. I also wanted to keep up the simplified LoK-style line art I tried out on the last piece, and try to apply it here, too.

This one won't have a background, so it's very close to being done. It just needs some color and very basic shading. I should be able to have it up tomorrow night, and sque...

And voilà! The final version. I had a lot of fun experimenting with the coloring style of this one to try and find a happy middle between my usual style and the LoK style. Hope you guys like the result!

In the end I preferred keeping all the pictures separate instead of in comic form, but I still included the comic version in case anyone wants it that way.

I really want to draw Gideon again sometime in the future, so you can bet this won't be the last you'll see of her. And maybe I'll include Harrow, too? 💀😉
