Based on the request sketch I did last month! I wanted to kind of plan out a painting for her a bit more, so I did some super quick thumbnails for the pose and overall layout.
I think I'll be going with the top right thumbnail overall, and I'll try to work on it on/off over the course of the next week or so. ^.^

WIP preview of my 'zine submission! I'll post a bit more about the zine and where to get it when its up for pre-order. :)
Man, its looks SO bright on my main monitor - sorry guys! It's a bit more toned down when its printed.
This is actually based a little off a screenshot I took when I first saw Ragnaros around 13 years ago. I've made it into a little raid scene, and there are a total of 39 characters (because there was always at least one person DC'd, right?) Its a little crazy I've be...

I updated my Etsy last night with some new items! My keychain supplier is running a sale - so I'll be placing an order for more in the next day or so. Going to try and restock on some things. ^.^
(I should have these up at some point soon as well, but I need to take better photos of them!)

Hey guys!
I've previously shown this pin here on Patreon, so its no surprise. I'll hopefully be hearing back from my manufacturer in the next week or so as they're still in production. :)
This pin is actually small, but its probably one of the more expensive pins I've produced so far! Due to the handle cut out, it raised the mold fee quite a bit. I'd still like to do a blue and pink variant of this at some point, so I'm aiming to have some in hand for Blizzcon this year. ...

Probably the last art in 2017 I'll post, but I've been trying to figure out how I wanted to draw her armor for a while now. Decided to go back to making it look more like the actual tier she wears in game. :) Sort of just a rough sketch of it with flat colors for now.
I'm not really into RP, but I've always loved giving my characters a bit of a backstory. I'd love to do some mini comics at some point with her travels and such. Hopefully I can make that a goal for 2018!

I'm trying to ramp up my stock in prep for 2018 conventions - here are a couple more pin ideas for the future. I'm not sure yet if these will show up in the Pin Club or not, as I'd really like to have people vote on pins instead of me just throwing whatever I want in there. :p
From Top Left - Poring , Poporing (Ragnarok Online) Bottom Left - Isabelle (Animal Crossing), Kodama (Princess Mononoke)

Been trying to figure out how I want to consistently draw my druid, which is fairly hard for me since I jump around in styles a bit. I previously played a tiny bit with a comic style for her and my priest, so I want to do a character sheet for both of them soon. :) (As well as figure out her armor a bit more.. fashion is not my strong suit.)
I'm going to try my hardest to start a doodle stream tonight around 7-8pm EST! Hope you guys can join me. :) I'll try and just do a few request...

I feel I had to rush this a bit, so I'm probably going to go back when I have a bit more time soon and fix things. The art was done for a keychain, so I think the mistakes are going to be so tiny that most people won't notice them. ^^; I'll be sure to make some adjustments before I get any prints or stickers made of this one.
I'm afraid I don't have a ton of art to show recently - a lot of it is work that may spoil a surprise. :(

Hey everyone!
UPDATE: Patreon has decided to reverse the new fee system, hooray! I'll still be making some tier changes, but the following paragraph is no longer relevant. :)
Recently, Patreon has decided to change the processing fees and charge you, the patron, a flat fee for each pledge. Instead of me eating the fees each month (which is about 10-11% per month for me) I'll now be paying a flat 5% fee. This gives me about $50 more per month as it... 2017-12-08 00:13:14 +0000 UTC View Post
Digital rewards should be sent out later tonight or tomorrow morning, with physical rewards being shipped out tomorrow as well. <3 Thanks for all your patience!
Also looks like I'll try to setup a stream on Sunday night (12/3) around 7-8pm EST. :) I'll try to do a few requests and answer questions for you guys. <3

Sorry for the lack of posts recently! As some of you know, I've been hard at work getting the Kickstarter out. I was able to ship everything out a few days ago, and this weekend I'm working on my mini backlog of art.
Unfortunately a couple things are gifts and I'd rather not spoil the surprise yet - so here's just a mini Sketch dump of things that have been sitting on my computer for the past few weeks.

It's been about a week since I've attempted to draw anything, so this is my mini attempt at a warmup. This took about 5-10 minutes in Sai. (I'm so excited for Jaina you guys)
I had a much needed vacation during Blizzcon, though I still technically had to work last Thursday and Friday vending at parties. :)
Thanks so much for all of you that came out to see me, It was so wonderful getting to meet some new faces and see some old ones too. <3 Vending at parties is always a...

Apologies for the radio silence lately! I've been hard at work trying to get all my Blizzcon prep done. Before last night, I haven't even drawn anything on my computer in over a week. x_x
I played around in Photoshop last night in a fit of insomnia and tested some different brush settings. I'm really loving the inclusion of all the Kyle brush packs in CC 2018, since I was missing a few of them and hadn't gotten around to buying them all.

First off, thank you guys so much! In the past week so many of you have joined, I'm so thankful and a tiny bit overwhelmed (with joy). ^^; My most recent goal was to hit 75 Patreons, and that means we've unlocked the monthly stream and a print giveaway!
In the coming weeks I'll set up a poll for streaming times, it'll most likely be in the evening during a weekend. Something like the first Friday or Saturday of every month? I'm a bit too busy with Blizzcon prep right now, but once I get back, ...

I got a chance to use my new light tent setup and I'm super happy with it! After Blizzcon, I'm going to overhaul my Etsy listing photos a bit and take some new shots to make everything look clean and consistent.
The Ysera and and Succubus head pins arrived today, and I'll be debuting them at Con Before the Storm the night before Blizzcon. :> (The green succubus won't be for sale, though I'll have a couple with me for display purposes.)

I'd like to turn her into a keychain eventually (and stickers of course!)
