Myst Monthly - Moving to Discord
Due to recent changes in Patreon ToS I'll be moving my Myst Monthly Pinup grabs to my Discord server which you should all have automatic access to - in the Myst Monthly chat channel there is a little more information!
If you are having issues connecting to the discord or require a rank within the server to match your patreon tier in order to view the chat channel (it is locked specifically to only allow myself and silver, gold or crown members), please get in touch! I'll need proof of your...

Everything mentioned in this post is my opinion - this isn't a statement on what you should or should not do in your art, it is just based on what I prefer to do and see.

To celebrate pride month this year I figured it's best to bring light to the LGBT+ community and feature respective flags in the images :)
Whilst only a few are listed here that isn't to say that they're the only parts of the LGBT+ community that matter, they're just the ones I have solid ideas for images of right now ^^
An Unprofessional Lighting Tutorial
**An additional screenshot of the lighting menu (specifically for a spot light) has been added with painted dots highlighting what you should be looking to change to alter your lights.
**Youtube seems to have crunched the quality which I apologise for ;3; I've uploaded the video file in the attachments.
For those of you who don't necessarily understand English very well or perhaps feel I spoke too fast, here is a written version of most of the stuff I cover (not translated direc...
March Changes (Rewards)
Important: February's reward deadlines still run till the 6th, so Myst Monthly images are still to be finished/uploaded. March rewards begin from the 6th.
Due to the fact that I've had very little free time and several bouts of rather serious illness and stress, I'll be taking March to refresh. As a result, there will be fewer rewards for the upcoming month - I want to make sure you're all aware before billing. (albeit with short notice, which I apologise for)
Rewards for March ...
Private Stream - Sunday 23rd
Hello! First off I want to apologise for the late content this month. It's coming! I'll be working on Myst Monthly stuff tomorrow, but for the main 2 images and the last crown piece I'm going to do one big stream on Sunday.
My question is; what time? (GMT)
2020: Benefits
I wanted to be able to bring something new to the table this year. I asked you what you wanted, and most folks wanted Myst Monthly to return! However, to pick the cover girl/boy I wanted to make it something of a competition each month rather than a chance draw - this way we can engage with one-another a little more. :)
So, this year I'll be following Patreon's guidelines for contests ( 2020-01-01 23:50:55 +0000 UTC

A word on delays..
.. I just wanted to say thank you all for your patience this month. My university is having strikes so my teachers are pushing up deadlines left right and center to make sure that work is being handed in before the strikes happen.
Because of this I've not had much time in the last 2-3 weeks to make any art outside of slowly ticking through commissions and the occasional sketch as a 'break' to myself from my irl deadlines and such.
Thank you for understanding!
I'll be working on p...
