Hope y'all had a happy new years!
Welcome to 2015 where more art awaits.
Thank you all so much for the support throughout 2014! I hope to see you all stick around for a great 2015!
I've been able to do a lot last year, and will definitely give it another go. With your help it's already been a lot easier to spend time on what I like.
I made a bit of a recap over on my Deviantart, which also helps show what this Patreon is for.
A collage of 2014 art and some fun numbers in the description to ...

Last big piece of the year I guess!
I thought I'd end it on a large note. A large beast of a note that is.
This one was a bit more of a personal project.
It will be included in both the highres and PSD pack!
PS:
I want to make a separate post for this, but already I just want to say how much I appreciate all the support I've been receiving.
It makes this year's ending that much better! I can't wait for next year. Even if it's less then 24 hours away at the time of writing this.
Thank you all...

Last page of 2014! I'll be starting on fresh digital pages next year.
Filled this one with all the colours of the rainbow! ... kinda...
Not a lot of ponies I say. Still, never enough Applejack.
There's still ponies I guess. A year can't end without ponies, nor can it start.
PS: I've also been uploading the files slightly larger. Been wanting to find a size balance.
PPS: Be sure to download the attachment for the full size!

This page is a bit smaller. Was my First Contact War sketchpage I used on the last Saturday of 2014. I'll be starting on a fresh page next year. So I cut away the empty space for this one.
Thankfully I still had a decent amount of sketches on this one :D

Large part here are the recoloured ponies, for which there is a free PSD file available here: http://fav.me/d8b8kyq
Still some sketches around it!
Sometimes I end up working a bit further just straight on my sketchpage. So I end up with these.
At the top I explored a different shading style. Not really... my strongest so to say.

The boxes of grey continue.
But then I managed to switch back to loose sketches, which actually want to overlap each other.
Exploring different Applejacks, because who else?!
Even sketched pony faces want to hug.

First Contact War sketch page. I started exploring bovines here, pondering how close to realism or show style they should be.
Not entirely settled on it yet. Either way, I wonder if their steak still tastes the same...
I should sketch that.

This one was made on the same day as #14, as you might recognize the face in a square style.
I made quite a few squares. At this size they also fill up the page quite rapidly...
Timberwolf puppy!!

I don't make a lot of sci-fi.
The left corner shows the madness that can happen and the joy of raw sketch pages haha.
I probably would've never uploaded those fruits otherwise.
Making people hungry for fruit.
That pony is such a fruit. (sorry)

This one was started in November but I'm reuploading, because I forgot the attachment.
Besides that I uploaded it quite late anyway heh.
Catching up with this 2014 pages!

Part of my First Contact War MLP universe.
Re-appearance of the 'Sirens of Albicant' and a continued introduction for one of the other hoofed creatures, the Bovine.
These particular bulls carry their bloodline, literally.
This will be part of my highres and PSD pack for this month.

Hey Folks!
I just released a free PSD which highlights one of my methods to add colour to a greyscale piece using 'overlay' blending.

Hey folks, a late update on this one. I have to build up my routine of uploading my new notable art here too.
This one was certainly one of them. With my goal to go into a surreal setting, which worked out quite well I'd say.
Allowing me to play with water, and other bits.
Some might recognize the face and shading style a bit from my "Apple Bucket" piece. That one was quite well received and the shading was fun. So this was nice to do for that reason as well.
Anyhow, enough blabbering about.

Sorry for the late sketch page update!
I've got a couple lying around, waiting.
Here's a page with some... experimental stuff.
From creating new brushes, to random stuff.

Hey folks!
Hope December didn't feel too silent yet. Lots of things going on in general. Accepted as vendor at Hearts Warming Con, the usual stuff, commissions, etc. The cold is draining my energy as well, so that ain't good, but I'm still here, mostly.
Here's a little update on my Patreon side of things.
I've been looking into making some small changes this month. Smoothing out some things.
- Large Resolution
Will now be in packs at the end of each month, similar to my PSD packs.

Hey Patrons! A bit later than planned, due to some thingies with patreon, but that appears to be resolved now! yaySo here we go with a new pack, this time I put it up in my DA Stash: http://sta.sh/21l6zd1ruf7xSince I already have the stash, it was easiest for me to use, as an alternative to the Patreon attachments. (I went over the 100mb limit as well hehe)You can download them individually but also as a .zip, which seems like a ...

Woo, Saturday results
This time was a bit different. Instead of an action scene, or scene in general, a bit more conceptual pony designs.
And here's the large version attached :)

One of my Saturday pages. While not as packed full or colourful as others, still... poni!
Didn't continue on this page because it felt there wasn't enough freedom in the space left to start sketching for a completely different piece. So I just left it for what it was and moved on.

More than half the page is full of speed paints. Hopefully the little ponies will balance it out.

This is one of the artpieces I've made during my Saturday stream, for my "First contact war" alternate MLP universe I've been developing.
Both the stream and the universe is what my Patreon is for, to help keep those things going and active.
This is hopefully a bit of a start of me sharing more public work here on Patreon, the direct results from what it's for.
If you want to see more on my universe so far, you can see them here: 2014-11-20 22:44:27 +0000 UTC

So many things going on lately, I could've uploaded this couple days ago.
Better late than never they say!
On a side note, I'm thinking of what I could post here as public. It's weird since I don't exactly want to repost anything that's already on my DA, but that seems to mostly be the things that are well... public.
I could just make a creation with just the link to my DA upload, just like with this creation.
... I'm not used to that, that's probably the biggest hindrance.

Hey Patrons,
Lets just start that I've (temporarily) removed the high end pledges, for now (those higher than 50). Made the page a bit cleaner I think, as I try to focus on the lower end.
If there does end up being someone who wants to pledge more than the current highest I'll think of some fitting rewards at that time.
In general I'm looking at ways to streamline my Patreon a bit, the rewards, and maybe reconsider some aspects.
I've temporarily removed the faster time lapse videos as a rewar...
