Flygirl and Patreon Changes

Hello everyone! Here is the newest pic, please let me know how it looks because since my recent computer problems my expensive graphics monitor died so I'm currently doing artwork on a backup screenless graphics tab and using my TV as a monitor so I have no idea how the colors are going to look to everyone.

ALSO, due to things in my life that have taken time away from my artwork I'm changing the tiers to be more fair to you and to insure that you get what you expect. If you are currentl...

APOLOGIES

I've been trying to get back to the "drawing board" and post artwork but life has been life. Today I finally had time to dedicate to my art and as I turned on my computer (you guessed it!) it's having issues again (SURPRISE SURPRISE!) So while I am doing my very best to get it fixed I'm not sure how long that's going to take, so I just wanted to give you all an update and a "I'm sorry" for the absence.

Once I get things fixed (or somehow replaced because I'm sick and tired of the proble...

March NSFW Nude

March SFW Large

March 2019

Hey hey hey! Here's the next month of the calendar girl pinup series. The nude version is available to tier 2+ but I think this one is cute too. My plan is to work on these whenever I get to my computer....I need to do the second half of the sketches now that i think of it so that will hopefully be soon : ) I also have other stuff planned so we'll see what I post next, I'm not sure yet.

April 2019 Large Versions of SFW and NSFW versions

APRIL 2019 (Bikini Version)

Hi again! Had some time at the computer and desperately needed to get some personal artwork done so here is the next month of the calendar girl series. I think she came out very cute, Tier 2 and above will get the larger and naughtier versions. I hope you like her and I'm on to the next pic in my list! WOOOOO! :D

HAPPY HOLIDAYS (High Rez Version)

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Happy Holidays guys, sorry it's late. I hope you are all doing well, happy and healthy. : )

HOHOHO WIP (Work in Progress)

I finally got to sit down at my computer for the first time in what feels like forever so I started a pic for the holiday season. I don't really celebrate many holidays but there are people I love who do so I still respect the traditions. Anyway, I'm working on the value painting for this pic of Santa giving one of his worker elves her holiday bonus, a big stocking stuffer! Among other pics that I plan to work on I'm hoping to get this one done pretty quick.

Happy Holidays everyone : )<...

THE LABYRINTH

My board game / card game has finally been published in it's playtester version for anyone who is interested. If you know anyone that loves table top games please pass this along. The game is rated for anyone age 12 and up so feel free to share it with everyone. Thank you!

The official site is www.ruined-art.com 

Flower Maiden WIP

Still in the works but I've been working on it little by little when I'm at the computer. Hopefully I will have this done soon and be able to move on to the next one which will probably be either an adopted sketch that I've already done or a new sketch idea from you guys.

Sketchbook 2018 (Pages 36-39)

Also, a lot of the opposite pages to these contain my thoughts both art and general life related, should I include those in the final combined sketchbook?

Sketchbook 2018 (Pages 27-35)

Hi guys! Just dropping in to post the next few pages of my current sketchbook, I'm having ideas of also sharing some old sketchbooks although they are mostly from before I starting going mainly digital so they are a bit out of date, but I know, maybe you'll enjoy them. 

These two sets include an updated page and the pages I didn't scan from last time. I will probably work on these pages more and update them later, I don't like having empty space on my pages. I'll also post the updated WIP...

Flower Maiden WIP (Rough Underpaints)

This is the rough underpaint for the flower maiden pic, I think I'll have some more time at the computer coming up pretty soon so more progress will be posted as it is done. I've been sketching more in my current sketchbook so I'll also have a new batch of sketches to post : )

Sketchbook 2018 (Pages 19-26)

You might recognize the second to last page because it contains Sorrowborn's sketch idea. I don't know if this is what he was thinking of but this is what came to mind when i read his suggestion. 

Sketchbook 2018 (Pages 10-18)

I left two pages out of these scans, not because they have anything objectionable but because they hardly have anything on them yet. One is simple thumbnail sketches and the other is a cartoon about a boss cat talking to a dog that I will eventually finish (I really don't like doing sequential art). Once I have these pages filled I'll add them into future sets. : )

Sketchbook 2018 (Pages 1-9)

Hi everyone! I'm still having a hard time getting back to my computer long enough to get any digital work done but on the bright side I've been getting a TON of sketches done in my 2018 sketchbook, I think I'll publish this one when it's done. My plan is to turn some of these into full color digital renders (when I find the time) so if you see one that you specifically like let me know. You can also "Adopt" any picture that isn't already claimed for $20 and I'll move it to the top of my work lis...

Lhakpa-Gyatsho Sketch

I really liked Sorrowborn's suggestion in the comments of my last picture so that picture is scheduled to be sketched and most likely turned into a finished piece. In the meantime, this is a sketch out of my sketchbook. It's a commission of a fantasy character for a pen and paper role playing game in production. I'll be working on this as soon as I have time at my computer, which should be soon.

Pussy Cats V1 (High Rez Version)

Pussy Cats V1 (Low Rez Version)

Another commission I finished a while back.

This has been a crazy month, a lot of stuff happening to keep me too occupied. This is the first time I've been able to sit at my computer in.. a while! So I take my current sketch diary with me to keep my creative energy flowing and keep my mind in a positive space. I'm thinking about posting the pages for you guys but I am debating if I should censor anything so that I don't offend anyone. I don't believe that any of the nudes or erotica would offe...

Valhalla Scene 5 V1 and V2 High Rez

Valhalla Scene 5 V1

I've been drawing a lot in one of my sketchbooks this month, it's been a while since I did any traditional media artwork and I forgot how much easier it is to sketch something this way. When I started back into it I would get lost in the work and occasionally realize that I was using a pencil because I would catch myself reaching for a non-existent Undo button X)

Here is another scene from Valhalla which has 5 stages (other stages available to higher tiers). Hope you enjoy.

Adamante (High Rez)

Adamante

Another commission recently finished. I'm sort of posting finished work out of order but as long as you guys enjoy them I don't suppose there's a problem with that. I'm still working on others. I haven't worked out the bonus material for this one yet.

On a separate note I'm working on a digital version of my recently prototyped game so that I can get more playtesters involved. The prototype came out looking beautiful and very professional. There is already errata from the first proof. When the...

Valhalla Scene 4V1 (High Rez)

Valhalla Scene 4 (Low Rez Version)

Hi everyone! I'm trying to get to the last half of the 2019 calendar girls I promise LOL. I've been working on commissions. This is the most recent one for the Valhalla game. I've also been soaking up some tutorials to further my knowledge and greatly improve my skills (hopefully X))

Tier two will get the high rez version of this, tier 3 will get 3 more versions including some messy versions. And tier 4 will receive a PSD this time since I haven't posted one of those in a while.

Since I ...

Valhalla Scene 3 Version 1 (High Rez)

Valhalla Scene 3 (Low Rez Version)

Yet another commission for the Valhalla game, make sure you check them out. Other commissions are being worked on with every second I can squeeze between life's obstacles. There is a high rez of this version for tier 2, and additional 3 high rez versions for tier 3 and a short sex animation for tier 4.

Update: When I had spare seconds I've also been working on my board game and finally pushed the production to the prototype phase. Now I need to figure out Kickstarter and promotional possibilit...
