Aerial Corps Pride (High Res Lip Bite)

Flight Cadet Samantha Fox shows off her matching ink, with her dragon Ulysses. Dragons and aviators formed lifelong bonds, often codified by rituals such as getting matching tattoos. The dragons, their tattoos being drawn directly on their scales, never could figure out what the big deal was. Ulysses, in particular, said he would get a tattoo on every scale if he could, and was quite sure he didn't see what Cadet Fox was whinging on about.

Mission Debrief Remaster

Captain Amelia Watson leans on her Crowned Rook, Antilles, during a mission debriefing. In this study, I tried to capture that far-off look in her eyes as the tacticians and Admirals droned on about targets hit and the importance of ammo conservation.

I knew her well enough to know that while her body was grounded, her mind was lost in the clouds. Captain Watson was absolutely enthralled with the freedom of flying, and jumped at every chance to fly she could; she would have been one of the mos...

You Losers Have No Idea Who You're Fucking With, Do You? (WIP)

Re-doing another one of my favorite ideas, executed poorly. Compared to the original, her face is a lot closer to Sarah Michelle Gellars, and her torso isn't as elongated. And it'll be higher res.

Commissions Closed

catch you next time!

Commissions Open

Only 2 slots available. I'm sorry I can't offer "Centerfold" level commissions this round, I all-of-a-sudden have a lot of artwork to do (thanks guys 😉). Deposits claim the spot, via PayPal or Amazon.com gift card to japes.art19@gmail.com

$25 Away From Goal! (And Commissions Open Fri)

Once $200/ month is reached (and every month it's sustained), I will start offering a vote for a fan art character for me to draw. Patreon supporters who contribute $10 or more per month will be able to nominate characters for the contest.

So drag your friends over here and get them to sign up! Or if you are a lower-tier contributor, consider that upping your pledge to $10 or more offers you an excellent chance of getting your favorite character drawn by me!

The Ghost To Themselves Pt 5

Commission for SupremeLurker. Sabine and Ezra came to conclusions. Things got a little rough there...

2 new commission slots will open Friday. Slots claimed in order I receive deposits. Check with me beforehand if you have questions about pricing or content.

Now That I Have Your Attention (BTAS Version)

Here's a Patreon-exclusive animated-series version of Catwoman. Have you guys noticed the "featured tags" over to the left? That will quick-link you to all my finished dragon aviators (Bombshells) and Patreon-exclusive finished pics (Exclusive), like this one. 

I decided my Patreon supporters need something special, so you guys will be getting more exclusive pics going forward. Any of my commissions will still be shared elsewhere, after a delay. But any of my "just because I feel like dra...

Samantha (WIP)

This month's dragon aviator, in-progress

Sabine and Ezra (WIP)

This is the last commission from the previous queue, so...

HEADS' UP!

i'm opening a new, shorter round of commissions next week. Only 2 slots will be available, as I'll be playing Mass Effect. My strong suggestion is that you contact me with your idea before-hand, so I can give you a price quote and tell you if I can do it. Because once I open them, first two deposits claim the slots.

Now That I Have Your Attention...

...I'd like to point out new Patron rewards for the $25/month and above tiers. This will be effective April 1st. Email or message me if you qualify then to claim your drawing. Again, this is for all $25 and $50/month Patrons as of April 1.

Oh, and also, what do you guys think of the new style?

Your Attention, Please (WIP)

When I get a lot of commissions with complex character design, coloring and shading, I feel a strong urge to draw something simpler and more stylized for fun.

Infinity

Commission for a Patron of his OC, "Fin" for short. This, along with the previous 2 commissions I posted, are examples of my "centerfold-level" commissions, where I spend more time and give them some extra TLC.

Also, I'm taking the feedback about posting throughout the month, rather than dumping everything on the 1st.

So, What Do You Think Of My Patreon?

I value your support and want to make sure I'm giving you good value in turn. Are you getting what you want out of this? Ideas for getting more patrons? Any suggestions for improvement? Please leave feedback in comments below, and if you have any ideas for Patreon rewards, I'm listening...

Becoming One With The Force Process Video

Bombardier (High Res Patreon Exclusive)

The bombardier was the athlete  a dragon's crew, expected to have the acrobatic grace of a gymnast, the strength of a wrestler, and the aim of an expert marksman, as she clambered and swung over a dragon's flanks.

Here, Flight Sargeant Bronwyn Sullivan takes aim with a tracer bomb, which was designed to leave a bright smoke trail upon release and explode with a bright flash. She would then, marking its path, adjust her Bomber dragon's hovering position and then unleash the full payload on...

The Truth Is... [Poster Version and Process Video]

A little more stylish version for you all. Honestly not sure which I like better.

The Truth Is... (Remastered, Work in Progress)

I just can't leave well-enough alone. Here's a remaster of one of the first pieces I posted on Hentai Foundry. I thought it was so good at the time...

I'm plugging away on commissions, don't worry. I've just been using this as a "palate cleanser" for when I get tired of drawing the same piece.

The Divine Wind Is a Dragon's Breath (High Res)

From the author of "Bombshells" and "Tentacles and Torpedoes" comes "The Divine Wind Is a Dragon's Breath," a pictorial history of Imperial Japan's kamikaze pilots and dragons during the Second Great War.

"Japan was blessed by a long and fiercely loyal relationship with its vast population of dragons, but not by dragons of great size. As a small island chain in the Pacific, Japan's food chain could not support dragons of a size and strength to rival the behemoths from the West. They, however, ...
