Weekly $10 Reward Tier Pinup 6-13-2015

Here's the colors for this week's pinup!

I used to practice swordsmanship on a regular basis, up until about 4 years ago. Truth be told, I miss it. Keeps you sharp! Would have been fun to spar with a girl like this. :)

Kendoka Sketch

Sketch for the $10 reward tier. A sexy Kendoka waiting her turn to spar.

I'll have the colors up in  a few hours. :)

Weekly $10 reward tier pinup 6-6-2015

Aaaand, the colors for this week's $10 tier pinup. It's an addition to the "Plushy Snuggles" series, this time, Shampoo from Ranma 1/2, cuddling a plushy Ranma.

Plushy Snuggle - Shampoo Sketch

Shampoo from Ranma 1/2, suggested by Madwon for his $100 tier donation in May. I've currently removed that particular reward, and will perhaps bring it back at a later date. Meanwhile, enjoy a new addition to the "Plushy Snuggle" series!

I fell in love with this character right away, and I am very much looking forward to getting this colored. Hopefully have it posted by the end of the night for the $10 reward tier!

I am super happy with her face, it turned out just how I wanted. ...

Plushy Snuggles - Peach Hi Rez

Here's the high rez for my recent addition the the plushy snuggle series. :)

New Chair!

And with this month, my first major milestone goal has been reached! Look what you guys did! I am so exited now, I wanted to show you all what your money is doing. I have been using this old wooden chair for years, and now I can finally retire it back to the kitchen for good! I am a pretty tall guy, so it's a bit tough finding a good chair at a reasonable price that fits me. Now that the patreon is doing so well, I am finally able to start upgrading my work station for better efficiency! So th...

$20+ rewards

Alright, $20 tier and above patrons, please check your messages for a link to a dropbox folder, containing all PSDs from the month of May, and the one's I was unable to share before. Let me know if you have any trouble accessing them!

I also have a tutorial in the works, and I will message everyone when I have that one done. :)

Thanks!

May 2015 Patreon supported

Thank you so much for the support this month!

Weekly $10 Reward Tier Pinup 5-31-2015

Here's the color version!

I went ahead and gathered a bunch of progress shots while working on it, and I will be putting a tutorial together for the PSD/Tutorial Reward Tier! 

Kickboxer sketch update

I didn't like how her fist was  closer to the camera than her foot, so I pulled it back a bit. Anyways, should have this colored before too long. :)

Whoops! I got a bit too busy, yesterday, answering messages, I didn't get a chance to finish this weeks sexy pinup! I am working on it now, though, and should have it by end of day. :) Today feels like a butt day. Yep, time to draw some butts!

Hey everyone, I got a question for ya! One of my awesome supporters approached me with the idea of posting all of my work here, on Patreon, as well as on DeviantArt. The reason I haven't done this already is because I like how Patreon is all about the exclusive content that my supporters get. Nearly everything that I post here is just for you all, and can't be found anywhere else. Even if it can be found elsewhere, such as my recent "Plushy Snuggle" series, you guys are getting the high rez v...

Plushy Snuggles - Samus hi rez Dark version

Here is the dark version, posted on request. :)

Here's the high rez file for my recent addition to the "plushy Snuggle" series!

Weekly $10 Reward Tier Pinup 5-22-2015 Sweaty Version

I felt like doing a sweaty version. :D

Weekly $10 Reward Tier Pinup 5-22-2015

Aaaaand, here's the colored piece. Stay focused, girl! Don't quit mid-set! :D

Weekly $10 Reward Tier Pinup 5-22-2015 - SKETCH

Here's the sketch for this week's pinup! Maybe she should have got a looser top...

Plushy Snuggles - Mikasa

Beat up from a long day of ganking Titans, Mikasa decides to veg out in an abandoned mill, just outside Wall "Rose". Just as she drifted off into a titan slaying dream land, there came the sound of familiar footsteps...Eren: "Mikasa?!"lol, I am a dork. :BHere is the high rez version of my recent addition to my plushy snuggle series (silly name, I know).

Updated Zelda snuggle pic

I updated the pic, so I wanted to release the high rez here, for you all. I mostly got rid of the hard lines in her outfit, so it didn't look so much like her gown was choking her boob. XD

Weekly $10 Reward Tier Pinup 5-16-2015

Underwater selfie! It's crazy the kind of colors that show up underwater! Lots of fun to paint. :D

Bikini diver selfie pinup

Here's the sketch for the weekly $10 reward! I love crazy poses like this. Water pics make for a lot of possibilities!

Zelda Snuggles High Rez

Aaaand, here it is! This doesn't count towards the exclusive weekly pinups, so you can count on one of them this weekend (as soon as I finish it. :)

Zelda Snuggles Sketch

I figured I'd give you all over here on Patreon a little sneak peak of what I am working on. Did you see that little Zelda teaser sketch I did a day ago over on DeviantArt? http://ronindude.deviantart.com/art/Speed-Sketch-Zelda-s-favorite-toy-532968728?q=gallery%3ARoninDude%2F5967576&qo=1 Well, now you might have an idea where I am...

Change in PSD file reward

I have one more topic to cover, and I figured it'd be best to tackle it in a separate message. With the recent change in direction of this page, specifically, the postponing of the artbook, I have had to remove the $5 reward tier that offers PSD files for all the artbook illustrations. Now that the artbook is being postponed, there won't be any PSD's from that project to post, so it doesn't make sense to keep that tier open. However, if you are interested in learning more about my methods, I ...

Artbook Project

As many of you may have noticed, the direction of my Patreon page has been evolving. I have learned a lot since starting here, and one major lesson has been that I am not quite prepared for the grandeur of my original project. Namely, the silent story artbook project that I began this Patreon with. Progress has been slow, mainly because I keep adding more to the original idea, until it's become this monumental project. It's become so large, in fact, that it no longer even pretends to fit withi...

Tiffa Snuggles High Rez File

Figured I'd share some love and give my patrons the high rez file of this piece. Thanks for the support!

Weekly $10 Reward Tier Pinup 5-8-2015

A break dancer, getting some beats going! She should probably not dance with a set of wired ear pieces, though... I ended up adjusting her left arm from the sketch, because the camera angle is less severe with the background. It just looked odd in the other position. Still looks a bit odd, but most pinups are oddly posed, anyways, when you think about it. XD

Break Dancer Sketch

Just a break dancer chillin'. Colored version with background is going up for the $10 reward tier.

post

***EDIT**I added a bit to the hair, so I re-uploaded it. XD********* I tried something different with the lines, with a bit more variation in the thickness. I like it, but it takes a LOT longer to do... I suppose it's something to remember for later. :)Also, I did not use any references for this one, so I am especially proud of it. It came entirely from my own noggin! :DThanks everyone for the support! I hope you enjoy this overly accessorized tennis player!

Declined Payments

Over the last few months, I have noticed a few patrons have continuously had their payments declined. Patreon declines payments for several reasons, like having false information that can't be verified, etc. At first, this didn't really bother me. But recently, I have been made aware of the potential for chargebacks. Basically, lets say that a patron pledges $10 a month, and get's declined for 4 months due to faulty info. As soon as they fix the info, they get a huge buildup of charges, all at...
