Manchas Reference Sheet [WIP]

My last commission on my queue for the year. AH! 

This is a reference sheet I'm doing for Manchas of their jaguar character! Front and back views, and also a bonus side view! There will be some written details added to it too to fit the style of my reference sheet comms. Excited to get this one finished!

Gossip [WIP]

WIP of my last December commission on the queue for dracenfer on FA! 

Lovely guy! Had the pleasure of hanging out with him briefly at this past MFF (: 

Anywho, he wanted a reenactment of a couple stock photos linked to me, watermark and all, haha (though it'll be changed to a furry related pla...

Deers Deers AND MORE DEERS [WIP]

AHH I LOVE DRAWING DEERS. Especially reindeers, oh boy. Tis the season!

Anyway, originally I was going to host another themed stream this weekend where I create a bunch of YCH poses that people claim the day of instead of filling out a custom order form. INSTEAD, I decided to ask people on Twitter if they'd prefer 'Turn my OC into a Reindeer' vs my original plan of winter/christmas themed YCHs. Reindeer won by a avalanche, so we're going with that this weekend! Here's a wip of the poses. I'm g...

Fee Charges CANCELLED [Update]

Alrighty, so it looks like creators and supporters were loud enough to make the Patreon team take a couple steps back and rethink their decision on fee changes.

They're no longer happening!

I'm temporarily optimistic about it cause it sounds like they still want to sort this issue out, but think of a better way in doing so.

So until then, everything will be staying the same. Luckily I didn't lose supporters over this (thank you guys! <3 ) so I'm not too upset..just happy to see ...

"Nope, no takebacks" [WIP]

This was a patreon sketch for Kodalynx that he commissioned back in November to have me clean up! Unfortunately, I didn't save the PSD for this piece so I had to re-ink it x_x Definitely keeping PSD files for Patreon sketches/stream sketches for those that want to upgrade later on..this has happened far to often to me xD Or at least a transparent PNG of the lines, for my sake.


Anywho, still love this piece! Tweaked the tail though so it doesn't look like her dress is revealing her u...

Fall Vixen [WIP 2]

More work in progress of a commission for Mochalattefox of their super cute vixen character enjoying a fall day! 

MFF put me on a backlog with art so unfortunately I'm still pumping out commissions from my November queue x_x 

Also doesn't help that I've hit a few pot holes in my art lately, ehh, but I think I'm liking where its going right now. It's not a HUGE change, but I find myself not worrying much about details and just kinda shaping out my characters in my drawings more....

Up Front Charge [Update]

Hey guys!

I just wanted to give you all a brief update. So on a more positive note, I've finally received the 'charge patrons upfront' feature. Basically what this means is that new pledgers that decide to say..pledge today, will be charged immediately vs the first of January. This is GREAT news for me, cause this will immiedietly notify me if these accounts pledging to me are fake since their cards are charged up front, thus preventing these people from accessing free content for all or part ...

Patreons New Fee Charge

I'm not sure if you guys received the email as well, but creators had the unfortunate opportunity of coming across an email sent by Patreon staff early this week. Their plan is to change the way they charge processing fees, which will be starting December 18th.

From that moment on, pledges will be charged a processing fee (2.9% + 0.35 cents) on top of their current pledge. The fee was originally covered by us, the creators, but Patreon thinks it'd be better in the long run if that charge is gi...

Style Practice [WIP]

Ahhh...this seems to happen after every convention I go to. I see a ton of art, then I look at my own and go "well..shit."

I'm thinking of maybe simplifying my art style, much more than it already is. I feel like lately I've been getting hung up over little details, which therefore makes my art look a little stiff. I want my work to be expressive just as much as my facial expressions. I want that portrayed in their bodies too. 

So. Here's a little sketch of Nicole. As you can see he...

Midwest FurFest [Vacation Notice]

Hey guys! Firstly, happy thanksgiving to my American friends! Hope you're all enjoying time with your friends, families, ect and eating some great food <3 

As some of you may know, I'll be attending Midwest Furfest next weekend (Leaving Thursday morning and driving 10 hours from Ontario to Illinois x_x) and won't be back until late Monday.

Cool Horse Loves You?

I think?


So I found out Adam/YourMovieSucksDOTorg from YouTube is going to MFF this year! So my plan is to gift him this Cool Horse shirt based off of the one and only Cool Cat x'D 

He's known for doing amazing reviews on bad movies, and Cool Cat was a huge hit in the fandom. So yeah..I figured he needed a shirt of his own x3

I honestly can't wait to gift this to him! :D Hopefully he likes it <3 (May have to lighten this up a bit more before I get it printed..I'm...

Posing With The Trolley Bus [WIP]

Work in progress commission for  Downbythebroch on FA of their skunk character in a 70's/80's setting posing with an old Trolley Bus at the station.

Really love doing commissions for DBTB. They always challenge me by requesting for complex things like vehicles, which I don't get to draw often!

Rexxie MFF2017 Badge [WIP]

 

*happy purring*

I snuck another Midwest Fur Fest badge commission in my queue...I couldn't resist! I love this little black cat, so I had to x'D

Steadily making my way through this jumbo queue for November. Badges are thankfully almost done, so I'll be able to put the pedal to the metal on the rest of the November comms, hopefully getting all, if not most, of them complete before my departure to MFF at the end of the month!

"LOOK AT MY FEET" [WIP]

Ahh, I love when people commission art of my character x'D Always fun, haha!

This is a sketch commission for Ahura. They wanted to see Nicole wiggling and splaying her toes, so this is what I came up with! Tried a few ideas out, but this one ended up sticking. I think from now on I'm only going to offer multiple WIPs out ONLY if I like them all x'D Cause sometimes I'll provide a few that I definitely don't like as much as another, and then the client goes ahead and picks the one I didn't like ...

Silverspots Twitter Banner [WIP]

Work in progress of a commission for Silverspots. This one was a fun ieda! Basically they wanted a lineup of their characters, all at appropriate heights (The client set me up with a template to work from too, which was super cool of them to do!), for their banner image on Twitter! I really love the idea, especially love the bat character at the end there...too short to see over x'D 

Excited to finish this one up and see how it looks on their page!

So I'm sure you all got spammed with emails regarding me on and off reaching my only goal I had on patreon x'D Unfortunately it had to keep resetting due to fake accounts pledging, and some backers backing out in the middle/at the end of the month. So I apologize if you kept receiving those emails!

Midwest Fur Fest Badge Pre-Orders [WIP]

OH MAN!

So a week or two ago my partner and I made the last minute decision of attending MFF at the end of November (Thankfully we were offered an empty room someone was giving away in the main hotel so we SNAGGED IT). We're both SUPER excited cause we've never been to this con (and I've never been to Chicago), and we've heard SO many good things about it from friends of ours! We'll be driving down, just under 10 hours (oof), but I love road trips so IT'LL BE FUN. Although, we're crossing our ...

Procreate also auto records the process, so here's the video for those interested! (Definitely going to do and post more of these, if you guys are interested!) Finished drawing will be posted on FA tomorrow si...
