The struggle is real...

I have cool and fun ideas.  What I don't have is a lot of painting and coloring experience.  It entails getting light and color to bring the piece to life.  I want to work on this piece more as a painting, but that's going to take a while, so here is a WIP for the piece so far of the direction I'm going.  There will be more rim light around April from the moon light and I'm going to have to possibly knock down her color as well to get that more night time feeling.  While...

April, but not in a shower... yet...

You can see where this is going....  Another idea I had for a piece...

April WIP pencils

Here are the pencils for the April piece.  I'm going to try and paint this one up as much as I can without relying on finished linework.  Looks like we're picking some more patrons up and I would like to welcome you and thank you for your support!  Patrons who are at the $15 level will get the sketches and work files for this piece.

April for April sketch

So here's Cosplay Gal Gigi doing her thing and getting into her character of April O'Neil of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  I have a few ideas for her, but you can see there's one there already.  The sketches done each month will be in the SUPERBACKER! tier.

Clarification of the $50 Director Tier

The way this tier will work for delivery, since I don't charge until the end of the month of that month's content, the work done for the custom commissions is done in the next month.  But don't worry, once your commission has been paid for you do not have to stay in that tier for the new month to wait to get your commission, unless you want another commission.  The rest of your reward will be sent along with every else.

Let me know if anyone has any questions about this.  Thanks...

Some unfinished business!

So I've been meaning to get this out way sooner but this was one of the custom $50 digital requests that it took me a while to get to.  I kept redoing it because I wasn't happy with my technique, but I think it's good enough to post.  I will go back into the rewards from a year and a half ago and will send this high rez piece to those that paid for it.  

But what the hell!  Everyone gets it this month as well in their package!

NO APRIL FOOLS JOKE! My page is starting back up!

Holy cow it's been a year and a half since I started working at Human Head Studios and every three months they were renewing my contract until this past March.  After getting some things in order I am starting up my Patreon again, but with a few changes.  I will be working on my Video Game Gals to be put up as a free web comic in addition to creating all the awesome pinups and sketches you had during the first run of my page.  

With that said, I am going to restructure my tiers ...

***IMPORTANT ARTBOYMOY ANNOUNCEMENT***

Hello  Patrons, and visitors to my page!  I have an announcement about the coming months.  Patrons that have been following me since the start or over the past few months may have noticed a dip in my productivity and new pieces being produced.  The explaination is simple:  I have a full time contract job.  I am at Human Head studios producing various art for games they are working on.  So this mean most of my time is spent there.  

In my free time I have...

Cosplay Gal enchants...

Hi all my faithful patrons!  Here is the nude version of the Enchantress cosplay.  If I had time I would begin telling a little story, for this and a certain God of Thunder, but alas the month is up.  Perhaps I will return to it in later months...

Scarlet Witch adjustments

So I went back into the piece and redid her bodice into something nore shapely and added some more interesting rendering.   Hope you like this one better, I do!  :)  Although in doing so I had to redo the nude version a little, because I deleted a layer I thought I didn't need.  Oops.

Enchantress Awaits...

Nice version of Amora.  Will try and have a NSFW version if I have the time...  Patrons $3 and higher will get the high rez  unframed version.

Cosplay Gal as the Scarlet Witch Nude

Nude version.  Duh.  :)  Enjoy!

Scarlet Witch Totally SFW

Finally done with this one.  Pretty happy with it.  Patrons $3 and up will get the high rez while $5 and up will get a N3 NSFW version.  I have one more piece to get further along to finish out the month.

N3 Magik Cosplay!

Painted verison of Magik for all you $5 and up patrons!  The high rez version will be sent out after the first of the month, natch!

Magik painted piece

Well, painting for me is a different thing from coloring.  It's someting that I still need to work on more but with your awesome support, I am hoping to push my painting skills to the next level!  For all my patrons $3 and up, you will get this piece, high rez!  $5 and up will get the high rez N3 version.

Zatanna tweaked!

To put it mildly...  :)  Trying to get pieces to really start to shine is always a challenge.  So here's the new version with some added layers, moved layer and special effects.  Now she's feeling magical.  Backers will get the unframed image and Blue Wolf will get the PSD file, because he directed this one!  What do you think of the new version?

December $50 Patreon Reward: Zatanna

The Director Supporter tier's reward is done!  Again, trying some things to see what works.  There are a number of sketches that will be going towards a future set, but this is the down and dirty one for now.  

Enchantress line work time lapse

Work in progress on the Enchantress cosplay gal from the night before.

Magic is progressing.

I have a number of piceces in the works in various stages and am trying to take some more videos of me doing my thing.

Enchanting ideas...

Hello, Patrons!  I haven't had a solid idea for a theme this month, so I think it's going to be somewhat freeform and across the board, but for now, I have this sketch I'm working up and will start working on a $50 tier request!  

December 2016 Reward Rundown

For those that missed December, this is what you missed out on!  The 10 bonus pics from the archive aren't pictured.

All November Sketchcards have been sent.

I want to thank you all for your great support in my new venture for this year.  I will continue to work on getting you more art next year and work on improving my art as I will be trying some more techniques.  As the title says, all the sketchcards have been sent out and if you haven't gotten by a couple weeks in to January, then please let me know.  I do know that one card's envelope was mangled by the PO machines, so I will make the envelopes more apparent they need to be hand ...

Elsa's heating up...

Cosplay Gal as Elsa is done.  Sorry it took a while!  Went a little darker value wise than I wanted it to so I'll be tweaking it l little for the final high rez images.

Christmas Morning sketch

Hey all my patrons!  Thank you again for your support and may your day be bright!  I will work on getting some more content done before the end of the year!

Naughty Mei

Why so serious?  Tiers $3 and up will get the large unframed file as a reward this month!

Winter Wonderland

This is what you get if Mei forgets her keys .
