REWARDS FOR APRIL

Your rewards have all been sent out! Please check your emails to see if I sent everything correctly. ^^ Enjoy!

POLL RESULTS

The poll results are in, and so this time we're gonna have a lesbian drawing! To those who would like more gay content, don't worry cuz my top patrons are collaborating for sketches and it seems like it's gonna be gay themed. ^^

Lesbian Artwork? (April 2018)

Hey ya'll,

I got a quick question: should I switch up the monthly Gay drawing to a Lesbian drawing every other month, or should it just remain as it is?

Preview 2 (April 2018) + Update

Here's another preview of your drawings for this month! Not far to go now!

PATREON UPDATE
Special Tier patrons can now ask for 'joint sketches' where each patron adds a character into a single sketch. These will be called Collabs, and there can be a maximum of 3 characters in a sketch (meaning 3 patrons can collaborate at once). You can contact each other here, or on my Discord server to discuss the details of your Collabs.

Rewards Sent (Mar 2018)

I just sent out all the Patreon rewards to your personal e-mails. It should arrive soonish as its still processing on my part (the highest tiers take longer due to the huge images).

I have also included the link to my entire catalog for the $10 and $30 tiers and will do so from now on, after a tipoff from a friend of mine who showed me a site where my feed was accessible to the public and the links were exposed.

This pack includes the second half of my back catalog and the new sketches. ...

Arm injury update (Feb 2018)

to all patrons:

sorry for being quiet for so long. I've been slowly recovering from my injury, and made some good progress. I was finally able to muscle enough strenght to doodle today, and it felt really good (though it was tiring due to my incomplete healing). However, my doctor advised me to give it a little more time to make sure I do not relapse since nerves heal slowly. They usually require 4 to 8 weeks to heal and I'm in my 4th week. It should be okay soon.

Rewards Sent! (Jan 2018)

Hey guys,

I've just sent out all your rewards! They should appear in your inboxes soon. I will finish the remaining work once I'm all healed up. ^^

If there are any issues, let me know ASAP.

Enjoy!

Arm Injury Update (Jan 2018)

Howdy,

after a few days of performing mundane tasks one armed, I visited a doctor, was diagnosed with ulnar nerve injury due to trauma, and got some meds for my arm. Thing is I am incapacitated for 3 weeks while I finish them and let my arm heal, which means I'm unable to finish the rewards for this month.

I've been thinking what I can do to make up for it, so I decided that I will postpone the remaining work till February, and give you ...

Preview + Discord Access (Jan 2018)

Hey guys, here's some preview of the stuff coming up soon!

I'm working to finish the rewards as we speak. ^^ Slowed down due to an arm injury but I'll manage.

I've also created a Discord Server as a means to keep in touch with all of you through a central hub. This feature is for ALL patrons. You all ha...

Another Patreon Update (December 2017)

Hey guys,

it seems Patreon changed their minds about the fees. They issued an apology for the whole fiasco and said they would keep things the way they are, and that they will work with all of us to fix what is needed to be fixed.

I greatly appreciate them for this, not many companies do such, so I accept the apology and won't mention it again. Sadly many creators have been hurt by this, so I hope they will get back on their feet soon. I wish them good luck.

Oh, and since I've alr...

Preview 1 + Patreon Update (December 2017)

Hey guys,

here's your first preview of the rewards for this month! Been trying to finetune the sketches and capture that kind of Manga-ish look. Hope you guys like them so far!

Now, after lurking around Twitter to see what's happening, it seems Patreon is going to implement these fee changes despite the massive backlash they're getting, so I decided to go ahead and give you guys an additional sketch every month as compensation (sketch on the right). Some of you expressed concern that I m...

Choose Your Character (December 2017)

Save the file, use whatever software you have to draw a circle around the character you want, then send it back to me via the email on the bottom. ^^

I have extended the character roster to 30. I know I said I'd include Gumball but due to strict new policies regarding depiction of children, I'd rather not risk it, even though I'd make him a teen in my work. It's not worth it. I've also added 2 of my own characters since I ran out of candidates. Finding females is a lot easier ...

General Update 2 (November 2017)

Hey ya'll,

I've been busy improving my Patreon, both in looks and features! I think I hit a highpoint for the time being, so here's a rundown of how stuff will work. I already posted some of it last time, but I'd like to keep everything under one roof:

Updated art style (all patrons)
You will get your rewards in my improved art style at no additional cost.

4K resolution ($10 and above)
4K versions of rewards will replace PSDs. Should be more ...

Character Limitation (November 2017)

Hey guys,

One of my patrons brought up a point about recurring characters, so I decided to ask you how we should proceed. Initially I had a limitation system where once a character was selected, they would be removed from the grid until everyone else had a turn. Later I removed this limitation for reasons I don't really remember.

This is a double edged sword situation. On one hand, limiting the characters allows for others to get some time in the spotlight. On the other hand, if people r...

Characters for November 2017

Straight
Asriel (Undertale) + Fidget (Dust: An Elysian Tail)

Gay
Dust (Dust: An Elysian Tail) + Klonoa (Klonoa: Door to Phantomile)

Seems like Fidget is a popular choice among my patrons! Hope you look forward to your drawings. ^^

General Update (November 2017)

Hey guys,

I said I'd be doing an update this week not long ago. ^^ I have recently found ways to make my Patreon (as well as my art in general) better for everyone. Here's what's new:

Enhanced art style
All patrons will be receiving drawings in my new art style from now on at no additional charge. Some of you have already seen it as a bonus in last month's rewards emails. Those who didn't, here's a link: 2017-11-04 12:50:54 +0000 UTC View Post
