Hey guys!
As a patreon perk, my Patrons gets an advanced notice on my commission openings.
I'll open for commission enquiries for Patrons on Tuesday 4th, for 24 hours before opening for the public. There are 4 slots in total. First come first serve.
Please read my commission info and terms of service in entirety before filling out the form.

AFK
I'm going away for a few days! Haven't seen my family since Christmas now, it's been a while. I'll be coming back late on the 4th, and I don't know how much time I'll have to be online, so the rewards will probably be sent out later than usual.
APARTMENT
As I wrote in my last update, we bought an apartment! We've had it for a month now and we've been doing a lot of work on it. Turns out the previous owners left us half of their ...
Most of you should've received the parcel now and I can finally reveal the contents to everyone.
For June the Mystery Chest contained:
· A4 Art print “Midsummer Fire Festival”
· A5 Art print “Altmer”
· 1 Coaster
· Patreon Exclusive Colouring Book
And for the Mystery Chest Deluxe there was also
· A3 Art print “Druid and Whelpling”
For July the theme is Warcraft Queens 2017-06-26 10:20:58 +0000 UTC View Post
Midsummer Fire Festival is here! Embrace the spirit of summer by honoring your faction's flame and exchange Burning Blossoms for neat things.
I honored the spirit of summer with this piece. I've never done compositional piece like this before. Never painted a worgen before either! Always nice with a new learning experience.
This was also the A4 print in Junes Mystery Packages.
The parcels will usually reach Europe within 3 to 5 working days. And the rest of the world usually within 5 to 7 working days.
Apologies for the late shipping! June has been crazy swamped with redecorating house and tablet breaking down and this intense heatwave that's going on in the UK the last days. Hopefully July will be better ~

This month the contents varied slightly depending on your tier.
Originally I was going to have the Wonder Woman painting only as A4 for everyone, but I like it so much that I decided for the Combo Patrons it deserved to be A3 size!
May's Theme was Wonder Woman. She is by far my favourite comic superhero and I am stoked for her movie in June! Thanks to you guys I could paint a piece dedicated to her! I've wanted to do something for her for ages....

Here it is! The finished painting for @Sserpentmoon on twitter. This is the first time I've painted a dragon, but it turned out alright.
This will be in June's digital rewards!
I've also got a timelapse that's up on youtube.

Since Patreon don't allow adding pictures to polls I had to use google forms.
Anyway, I can't choose which backside I want - please help me decide!

best superhero, case closed, no competition
she's usually displayed with a one handed sword and shield, but I'm gonna pull the artistic lisence card and portray her with a two handed sword.
She was the main attraction in May's Mystery things, being a bookmark, A3 and A4 print. The bookmark was exclusive, but you can purchase her print from my shop.
This will of course be in June's Digital Rewards...

But now I've got a lot of art related thoughts in my mind and I figured some of you might want to know!

This month the Mystery Chest was quite special - and took me several days to put together! The Mini Artbook took me a long time and a lot of resources, so this month my backers really got their moneys worth. I really hope the Patrons who received it liked it, and if you have any feedback for me I'd love to hear it!
April's Theme was Guardians of the Galaxy. Thanks to you, my Patrons, I was able to take some time off commissions to paint Peter Quill, as t...

Lesson 2: Prices, Products? My o my!
You’ve read Lesson 1 and decided you want to open commissions! So now what?
There are many things we need to cover but let's start with your commission info page! You need to have a place where you describe what you do and what you offer.
The easiest way to set up your commission info is to use a Google document (unless you already have a website). There are four things that are essential to include:
Badge commission for One_Rogue on Twitter of their Undead Rogue!
I'm super excited about my first badge commission! Thank you so much to Paryah for daring to be the first. I've posted the badge version on twitter.
This piece will be included in the April Art Package and the digital rewards are:
A few days ago I asked my Patrons what tutorial they'd like to see, and here I am to deliver! An In Depth Tutorial about everything you need to know surrounding commissions. I will release one lesson every week because it'll be the size of a small book and it's easy to get overwhelmed. I'll also create a Google Document with all the lessons for my Patrons as they get published.
