✧Big Update✧ August 2022

Hello!

We are back – horaaaay! We decided to take a 2 month break from Patreon because all of our projects were starting to pile up. It was an incredibly stressful time for us, but now that our uni semester is over, we are happy to start offering new content again.

New Content

You may have noticed that the contents of our tiers slightly changed - instead of offering you tutorials every month, we'll now be offering layered PSD files of your favorite art...

✧Update✧ June + July 2022 - Billing Cycle Paused

Hi everyone :)

Polymanga in April, Fantasy Basel in May and now Dokomi in June - After travelling a lot lately due to conventions and being busy with commissions and uni, we decided to pause June's and July's billing cycles. We'll still be active in our Discord server, but we won't be able to make content on this platform for next month. We need some time to recharge and focus on projects that we had to neglect lately. 

So what will we be working on during ou...

✧Raide✧ Wallpaper Collection 13 (May 2022)

Hi everyone :)

Didn't get to put this together sooner because I was super busy with conventions and travelling lately - hope you don't mind! 

Anyways, feel free to use and download these for your phone or desktop wallpaper collections :)

✧Raide✧ Early Access Bath - Reflection, Patreon Study & MS Paint Portrait

Since I'll be gone at 2 conventions in the upcoming weekends, I decided to share some more work than usual ! ^^ I might continue working on that MS Paint  portrait, so I'll call it a Work-In-Progress for now :D

✧Raide✧ Early Access & WIP - Pink Hair & Reflection

Really enjoyed working on both of these pieces ^^ The second painting is almost finished, and I can't wait to show you the final result!

✧Raide✧ Early Access - Elsa Edit

Felt like editing a portrait of Elsa that I made in 2019 ^^ Hope you like the new version :D

✧Raide✧ Early Access - The Yellow Umbrella Part 4

Had so  much fun making these two illustrations! ^^ I was largely inspired by the beautiful scneery in The Garden of Words - it's so beautiful!

✧Poll✧ Which tutorial / topic would you like to see next?

Hi everyone ^^

In order to plan my next tutorial, I'd love to get some feedback from you guys! Please vote which topic interests you the most.

NOTE: I'll try my best to make a video tutorial on the chosen topic, but since this semester will be crazy busy for me and video tutorials take a lot of time to produce, I can't guarantee that I will be able to finish it for next month!

✧Raide✧ Tutorial - Drawing & Painting Hair

Finally, after many hours of planning, recording, editing and painting, my hair tutorial is here! I really hope you guys will find it helpful :) I am of course open to your feedback!

✧Raide✧ WIP - Yellow Umbrella Part 4

Made these quick thumbnail sketches today^^ Trying to see how I want their story to continue :)

✧Study With Us✧ Poll #4

Hi everyone! ^^ For this month's study session, we thought it would be would be nice to focus on underwater scenes. For anyone who wishes to make something for mermay: You are more than welcome to turn the chosen photo into a mermaid!

As always, the exact date of the drawing session will be negotiated through our Patreon Discord channel :)

✧Raide✧ Early Access - Powder & Math Lady

I had so much fun painting both of these pieces yesterday :D <3 The one with Powder is a study from the "Enemy" music video by Imagine Dragons.

✧Raide✧ Early Access - In the Fields

Had so much fun painting these two again while expanding their story ;)

✧Raide✧ Wallpaper Collection 12 (April 2022)

Hi everyone! ^^

I didn't create many artworks that fit the format of a mobile wallpaper this month, so I thought I'd include two slightly older paintings in this wallpaper collection - I'd like to call it the classic collection, since all of these pieces are based on a famous classic painting.

Hope you like them! :)

✧Raide✧ Guide & Step by Step Collection 5 - April 2022

Hi everyone! Sorry about not posting this sooner - this month was crazy busy for me, so yesterday was the first time I got to sit down to make this content ;/

Anyways, for this month I decided to make something a little different - since my sister and I have a shared video tutorial, I thought it would be a nice idea to offer you some step-by-steps with written commentary this time around!

These are obviously way more time-intensive to create thean the regular step-by-step PDFs wit...

✧Raiffie✧ Vlog - Polymanga 2022

We thought it'd be nice to show you some insights of our time at Polymanga last week! Let us know if you like these types of videos :)

✧Raide✧ Early Access - Pink Hair

I really love how the hair colors turned out ^^ Feels good to be drawing a lot again :)

Finally, after almost 3 weeks of con and other preparations, I had the time today to continue this series!! It feels so nice to be back at my tablet after so long... I hope you guys like this :)

I'm sorry for the lack of new art recently! This month has been crazy eventful, so Leffie and I prepared a little vlog type video where we share some recordings we made at our recent convention - hope you guys look forward to that :)

✧Raiffie✧ Tutorial - How we collaborate (Owl Tree)

We're happy to finally show you a time-lapse of one of our collabs! We made this Tutorial for the next IFX Magazine and we can't wait to hold a copy of it! Sadly there wasn't time to record a voice-over, however, there is some written commentary.

Raide focused on the background and post-editing, while Leffie took care of the character design ✨

✧Raide✧ Early Access - The Kiss

I really enjoyed experimenting with some bold brushstrokes :) Let me know if you like this look!

✧Raide✧ WIP - The Kiss

I absolutley love Klimt's The Kiss painting, so I decided to study it and reimagine it in my style ^^ Can't wait to see share the finished painting with you guys :)

✧Study With Us✧ Poll #3

Hi everyone! ^^ For this months drawing session, we want to focus on the female side profile. Please vote which of these photos you'd like to study with us!
