For whatever reason, Syrus has been much more agreeable to draw than Tanner was. Going to a nice scene in the rain this time! Assuming I can figure out a good rain effect, that is.
This was the first time I really used a symmetry tool, which was a little weird but did streamline the whole outfit design process by quite a bit. Hair is still asymmetrical though. Death the Kid would disapprove.

Just when you thought you were done with 2021, it's the December Patreon Supporters! I decided to pull from the archives to get a Tanner prompt to cap off Tanner Month, and found Temiree's suggestion of Tanner tanning! You know, as you do in December.
I don't think I can say much that I haven't said in my end of year writeup so I'll keep this one brief - thank you for sticking with me and my characters another month!

Every attempt on a tiedown on this just was not working so I ended up viciously cleaning my messy sketch instead, haha. My first couple of sketches to find the pose are attached as well!

Not only a rare commission with a human, but based off the commissioner to boot! ActorHowlez wanted to see himself as a Pokemon trainer with his favorite Swampert. Swampert is objectively the best starter so I was happy to oblige!

Finally done! I started the sketch for this in August of last year and have been slowly chipping away at it in between comics and commissions ever since. Originally I wanted to finish this before the end of the year, but being the first piece I finish in the new year works just as well. Maybe it will set the tone for the year!
I'm really happy with this one - this was the first time I've drawn my cast together, positioning everyone was a lot of work, the background was even more

And at the last minute, one more commission for 2021! Leyyythis' character having lunch with Rory! I'm greatful to draw my characters in commissions, especially since I like how Rory came out in this one!

As far as art goes, 2021 ended up being quite a year! Somehow it simultaneously went by really quickly and slowly at the same time. Looking at some of the earlier commissions this year I couldn't believe they were less than a year old - it feels like I drew them so long ago! I drew some of my best work - both commission work and personal - this year. I was able to leave my job and tackle freelance ar...

For some reason I was all primed up to post this on the last week of December, but as soon as I started this post I thought 'wait, I usually do this way earlier'. What do you want to see for the last thank-you of the year, the big sendoff?
The usual rules apply - you can make suggestions involving my one of my characters characters only (no licensed characters/OCs), and keep in mind the type of content I already draw when making suggestions. If y...

Tanner and Syrus have been best buds since they were small and Sy is always his go-to person to hang out with. He tries hard but unfortunately not always the best at reading the mood - oftentimes he figures if he’s having fun then Syrus must be having fun too, right? He also doesn’t really grasp that he’s Sy’s only close friend, but to be fair that’s not something Sy advertises. Still, Tanner is always there for Sy in his own way and they both get along well despite their c...

Kinda lost my mojo the last couple of days, so decided to do a quick redraw since I thought this was a fun panel. Don't expect the whole comic though, no need to draw the whole thing a third time!
Yellow shirt Eli was kinda nostalgic to draw even though I only drew a fraction of it, ha,

I'm not sure if I'm feeling artblock or just a bit of burnout but man, something made this one really difficult! But now that Tanner's finally gotten his snacks I'll be putting up his chronological post soon. Sorry things have been a bit sparse the past couple of weeks, but thanks for sticking with me!

Not quite as prompt as Eli's was, but Tanner month bears some fruit! I actually have his writeup and chronological drawings ready, but need to put on the finishing touch with his drawing!
You know what Tanner gets that Eli didn't? Concept art for his new outfit! Unlike Eli I wasn't quite settled on a design for his jacket right away. So I started with a mannequin - a Tannequin, if you will.

Merry (nearly two weeks early) Christmas, everyone! Tanner and Sy's Christmas draws to a close with a nice can of pumpkin spice Mr Dew... maybe it's better if you heat it up on a cold day...? No...?
Hope you enjoyed this year's Christmas outing!

Seems Syrus has warmed up to the idea of pumpkin spice Dew since they first heard of it... or maybe he's just in a good mood!
I double checked - there's not actually a pumpkin spice Mountain Dew but there is a gingerbread flavored Dew and wow! That's worse.

Remember that group photo picture? This is it now - feel old yet?
I'd like to finally finish this one so I've been picking at it for the past couple of days. Took forever to figure out how I wanted to approach the background but I think I'm getting somewhere! Part of me likes the gradient BG and wants to leave them all in a Pokemon SWSH background as is, but another part of me knows that's because I don't want to paint more than I have to, haha. Still have a lot of work to do on this, b...

I was thinking to myself how rare it is for Rory to get a post all to himself, but apparently I forgot to post the full version of the October sketch so GUESS WHO'S TOGETHER AGAIN
Rory got August to himself though so he got a couple minutes of alone time.

First of all, Urban Hart suggested that Rory have a cup of hot apple cider, and as someone who is writing this while bundled up I'm both happy to oblige and a little jealous!
Secondly November brought two new Patrons, Vazzy and Ed H.! I've had at least one new Patron each month since June, so thank you for your support and for continuing the combo! It's been really rewarding to see this Patreon grow ...
