October 2022 Bronze Poll

Alright, after a fair bit of tallying, browsing back through images, hemming and hawing, I’ve got the selection for this month’s poll.  I really feel like I should’ve cut the number of options in the poll down, but, well… I didn’t.  If you just want to start voting, open the attachment below to see the images that go along with the poll options, and then select your favorite on the poll.  Silver patrons can submit their second vote 2022-10-07 01:55:00 +0000 UTC View Post

This one was tough.  Ended up having to move Kimber, cause the perspective on her and Jensca from the original sketch was just too hard.

Anyway, I'll look to get the poll together thursday or friday, so if you haven't already put in your nominations for sketches to get finished up with inks and shading.

October Color Poll Nominations

This isn't the poll itself yet, but the general consensus I was getting from my last post is that you guys want to see a sketch finished up.  There's a lot of sketches in the backlog, far too many to put in one poll, so I want you guys to nominate your favorite sketch (it doesn't even have to be from the last couple months, if there's something older that you wish had gotten colored you can go ahead and put that forward).  If someone else already mentioned what you want, then don't ...

Top winner from this month's sketch poll, plus a look at progress on SSU page 3.  Just as a general gauge of interest, reply below and let me know what you want to do next month:

1. Foxtober.  More sketch requests, fox theme (a folf is fine too).

2. A color poll.  Grab some sketches from the last several months, throw them in a poll, something gets finished.

3. Focus on the comic.  I'll be working on the comic alongside whatever we do here, but if you wan...

September 2022 Bronze Poll

Well, this was a hard batch of requests to handle.  That's not a comment on the quality of the ideas, just that I spent a lot of time staring at Photoshop and struggling to translate words into pictures.  Just not a very good month for creative art-making brain-juice stuff.  Some requests I had to alter slightly to make the good-brain-juices flow (beach and bikinis exchanged for coffee shop and yoga pants, a shower for a lake, etc).  Besides just being late (we'd normally ...

September 2022 Requests

My plans for the first week or so of this month are to finish up that Kimber sketch (I made some decent progress last night, might as well finish) and page 3 of SSU.  While I'm doing that, it's your opportunity to get requests in for Sefftember!  Yep, it's time for everyone's favorite direwolf (that's Seff, right?  Not Luna or Makwa, right?  Right?) to take the spotlight as the theme for the month.  As usual, being on-theme is more o...

Oh no, Ash is in Danger.  It's Seff.  Seff is the Danger.  Ash is in Seff.

He'll be sticking his nose into Trouble, too, in a couple minutes.


I'll see about doing the Kimber sketch, too, but not sure if I'll have time.

Running out of time in the month, so shorting some of the variant work.  If this wins a color poll sometime I can always add Eric (and/or faceless male) back in.

Been a little bit busy; dogsitting for my mom again, and harvest time for the garden.  But the biggest drag at the moment is hardware-related.  My Razer Nostromo that I've been using for all my Photoshop hotkeys for quite a few years now is dying.  I ordered a Huion mini-keydial from Amazon to replace it, but it had some driver conflicts that kept crashing Windows (it was advertised as specifically compatible with other mfg tablets, but it wasn't).  Returned that, got a Wa...

August 2022 Bronze Poll

Saw a lot of new names this month, so I'll make sure to provide some extra clarity.  Normally, I would sketch several of the requests straight away and the polls would be used to determine which sketch gets inked and colored/shaded.  However, with me splitting my efforts between requests and Sunny Side Up, we have been doing a larger set of thumbnails (small, low-detail layout sketches that just capture the idea/pose of a picture) and then the polls determine which of those are sket...

Inks for page 3 coming along.  Need to resketch Makwa's hair for panel 2, but being only 2 panels (even with a ton of tilework to deal with in panel 1) has made this go much faster than page 2.

I could probably spend more time trying to make each of these girls unique, but I'm happy that I at least did a little bit to dress up each one of them and make them a little different.  Some of them might look a little like Western Basitins... but in a border outpost, well, things are probably a bit more mixed.

August 2022 Requests

Oof.  Patreon updated their interface and now I don't know where all the buttons are.  Anyway.  Requests for this month!  I couldn't really think of a play on words or a rhyme with "August," so the theme for this month is just "POV."  Which could mean the usual adult POV shots, but also like closeups, worms-eye-view, birds-eye-view, anything in that nature - try to play with ideas where the view is a bit more up-close-and-personal.  We will have a soft cutoff of ...

Don't think I'm done working for the night, but I wanted to squeak in before midnight and get this post out to you; second poll winner for this month.  Going to see about getting some color on that barracks pic, but I'll see you guys tomorrow afternoon with a request post.

I'll probably leave this right here for now, I'd like to get some color on it, but that'll need some rough inking.  That can wait, I'd like to get started on sketching the winners from this month's poll and some comic work.

July 2022 Bronze Poll

With how last month's poll went (the barracks pic basically taking over and consuming everything) and how behind I feel this month, we didn't do requests, and most of the requests from last month didn't get a great shake at things.  So for this month's polls I've brought back a lot of the requests from last month.  I removed the lowest-scoring thumbnails and substituted in a couple of older sketches that are swimsuit-themed (gotta have those in July, right?).  We'll still kinda...

Well, really bad of me to have gone the first half of this month without posting any updates.  Work has been ongoing, definitely bit off too much with this barracks pic.  I did the aforementioned updates/color changes to page 1 of SSU and finished page 2 - might still bring in some final touches, but otherwise I'm ready to do page 3.

30 days have September, April, June, and November.  Which is quite unfortunate, cause I could use a June 31st to wrap up work on this.  I've mostly got the shading handled, maybe some more work to go into panel 6, and I've started messing around with some ideas for doing the water effects.  I think it's good that I waited to publish page 1, cause after doing this, I think I definitely need to go back and lighten up some of Kian's fur and flesh tones, I don't want to keep them t...

Update on the comic + a bit of a peek at what's going on with this month's poll winning sketch.  Still a fair amount to do with the shading on this comic page, but it's coming together.  I asked Domo for a bit of a hand with the basitin sketch; turns out he's a bit of a wizard with SketchUp.  He knocked this out in an afternoon or so, while I fumbled around for a week or two just trying to learn the program so I could do the backgrounds for the comic.  If he hadn't of been...

Had a bit of resketching to do on this page before I wrapped up the inks - still a bit of inking left to do on the background, just the tedium of tiles.  But there were a couple things I wanted to be sure to take care of.  First was that I thought I could do a better job of making sure Makwa's hair looked wet from the shower.  Second was trying to adjust her expression in the last panel to make her look a little less pissed at Kian for his lewdity, otherwise her willingness in ...

June 2022 Bronze Poll

Alright, gonna have to be a lot stricter this month with how many sketches we do.  It's going to be between 1 and 3, but that's really going to come down to how much time I have at the end of the month and which sketches win - if the basitin barracks pic comes in first, expect that to be the only sketch I do for the month, cause that's a lot of characters to draw.  If the swimsuit swap is in there in one of the top places, I might be able to do more, because that one is more sketch ...

Sketches for this month - I'll get a poll up in the morning.  From top left, we've got Jensca Daki for Heresy, Seff and Jen followup for Kmew, Ash alone on the lake for Quinn, Fem Sythe with Mike/Evals for penscot, Laura/Brutus followup for Fuji and ZRO, and Maddie and a few other random basitin girls in the barracks.  Included as an extra is the Seff/Jen swimsuit swap from a few months back, as an extra Jensca thing.

Rough thumbnails this month, so far anyway.  They'll probably make a little more sense once I slap some color on them.  The last one is fairly ambitious - but I think that's mostly just my own lewd shitposts coming back to haunt me.  Can't taunt a discord server with a lewd idea and not have to eventually do something about it.

Not the most productive start to the month, I wanted to get a lot more of this done - but gardening, my mom's birthday, my aunt and uncle selling their house and dumping several truckloads of STUFF on me, and similar really ate into my drawing time.  But anyway, make sure you get your ideas in for this month's sketch requests, sometime tonight I'll start going through them and working out what I'm gonna draw.

June 2022 Requests

Doing more requests this month, though I think I got a little sidetracked last month and spent more time on making the thumbnails nicer than I needed to, and that ate up time I wanted to spend on the comic.  Also obliterated my sleep schedule trying to get things finished.  I was going to make this post yesterday, but then I slept all of yesterday.  We'll try not to do that this month.

We will have a soft cutoff of June 8th for getting your requests in. &...

And the last of May's sketches - would've liked to do a bit more with the background, but it's really probably okay for a sketch as-is.  Stay tuned for a post on what we're doing for June - probably tomorrow, since I still need to figure that out.

And the second winner from this month's polls.  I ended up redrawing Kat's pose in panel 4 - I'm still not sure I'm happy with it, or with Flora's expression.  Anyway, I stayed up way too late/early finishing this, time for bed.
