Drakk-on Updates Part 2

Missed that New Years mark by thaaat much. But ah hell that's a job I've been wanting to get sorted for a long time done now. It feels good, and I'm really happy with how he's looking. I know I probably said that too many times already. It's just nice when something you've been unsure about for a long time ends up working out in the end, you know? This is honestly a huge weight off my chest and it feels good just, checking this off the list.

Considering what the next year is and now his...

Drakk-on Updates Part 1

So this ended up being more of a mission than I would have thought.

The good news is my paranoia about keeping back up files paid off. The bad news is that didn't stop past me from doing some really strange things. So there was a lot of hunting through old backups so I can extract backgrounds and separate line work.

I wanted to get this done and get it done properly. Because after much back and forth, I am quite happy with how Drakk is looking and this is the last time these a...

2023 December WIP 3 - The Others

So a friend of mine has been going through a lot of changes as of late and it's been enjoyable helping her through that. Even if it's in my weirdo way. Like wise another friend was needing some help to visualize something on their sona so wanted to help them with that while I could.

The rest of these are the WIP of the Kace piece from this month. 

2023 December WIP 2 - Sheep Shame

I'm not actually that ashamed at all.

But I wasn't expecting to draw KC this much during the month but he's kind of been my go-to to warm up and push past some art blocks that have been cropping up. It's been something I've been missing for a while and it feels good to have that back with a sona.

I really need to make a proper ref sheet for him and soon.

2023 December WIP 1 - Dragin' On

Hey, so sorry these are a bit clustered. Things have been hectic due to the holidays.  I've had things drawn up but not the time to save them out. So just been playing catch up with that.

Anyway, a lot of these were me getting to grips with Drakks new look before diving into the redo's It's been feeling good to draw him, feels much more refined. Helps he's got honkin' big feet.

Sit

I can't get this dog to do anything right... But I do love him for it.

Floor time is nice...

More on the way, just got to clean up some file names and get things organized.

Theme Poll - Old Into New

I've been slowly tinkering with Drakk's overall design and I'm feeling pretty damned good aobut it (just needing to finalize the tail.) I've been thinking about bring his older art work up to date with the current look. Buuut I've been wanting to do similar with the rats conversion into a sheep boy.

I've really been wanting to focus this stuff down because once it's done, it's done and that's it. Everything else I can live with but these are the two I want to try and nail before I star...

Design Poll - Spikes or Spades

Back to this yellow boy.

To try and keep it short, I've been tinkering on Drakks look over the last few months and I'm liking where he's at currently, especially colour wise (always been a fan of warmer yellows.) Anyway was never very happy with how his tail was and something I found during "the rat era" is I really enjoy drawing those thick solid tails, those curves are very satisfying to mak...

Not Much of Anything

I mean if you want to be considered more than dirt you should at least build buildings that come up above Kace's toes.

Hey finally getting some paws up on here! I did want to get two sets of dog pictures done before the months end. But the stars conspired and it was not meant to be, that plus this ended up getting well, bigger than I planned let's say. Anyway going to get that second one done soonish, enjoy the big dog.

2023 November WIP 3 - "Angels in my heart tonight"

Look even I don't know why I like this stuff so much, i just think it's really neat and it makes me giddy ok.

So mix of going with my dreams and playing with some colours, I found this one bizarre use of blue with a layer effect that game some pretty good results on the skin tone for Kass here. The last one was made before I remembered thanks giving was a thing but it seems appropriate to upload a stuffed sheep given the timing.

Irritated

Can't even leave my room without stepping on one of these "bugs" :\

Something Old

Operation "That picture but what if a sheep" is finally a go.

Which is to say they've been done for a few days but I always feel weird  uploading stuff I've gone back and edited without something new to go along with it.

But anyway, yeah so there's a handful of pictures from the rat era I want to convert over. Mostly because I really loved the vibe from them and I was so close to getting this sona thing sorted out right, but I was just that  little bit off. Also so when...

Status - Collections

Hey so,  just a quick update. Because of the recent changes to this sites user interface a few things got messed around with and frankly I'm not sure what's the best way to try and work with that. I've had some people say it's been hard to find anything since those changes.

So I've set up some some collections based on the tiers, as well as others that might be useful (general artwork and ZIP files). So I'm hoping that will help make it easier for you guys to get access to the pos...

2023 November WIP 2 - Padded Happy Place

I got them brain dogs...

I've been thinking about the Boofer quite a bit, he's been growing on me a lot let's say, I'm still not quite sure on what his place is overall, but he's got this playfulness that's been really nice to work with. Plus you know, that playfulness is just extra good when increased in size.

Also a continuation with some Trek based shenanigans with a specific Rabbit.

2023 November WIP 1 - Shepherded Sheep

Collection of sheep in varying forms of causing problems. I just think it's neat to step on people ok. :3

Also a taste of a some edits I'm planing to do.

2023 October WIP 4 - Octobers WIP Dregs

Aaand carrying on from the last post here is the work in progress images from the major projects.

Splitting the posts up because there's a few of them and it separates the old from the new. The ZIP should be up fairly soon after these are live.

2023 October WIP 3 - "But October was days ago..."

DUN DUN DUUUN...

Ok so to be blunt about the delay here. Soon after the last Halloween picture got upload the power to the street was shut off for repairs. Which also caused my computer to get power surged. So I've been dealing with that since. The computer does seem ok now, so far. But I'm always very weary on stuff like this so I'm keeping a eye on it and been making backups.

ANYWAY here's some bits and pieces I didn't find the time to upload properly earlier.

...

Halloween Unaware Danger

Ok, just a liiitle bit late but here it is! Why yes I am overly proud of my very well made costume.

The other uploads will be coming along shortly too. But that's going to need to happen AFTER the power to the street gets cut off for the day, due to maintenance. :'v

They kind of sprung that one on us as a surprise. Big part why I wanted to get this done asap. That said, ended up doing a few non-holiday themed alts because you never know when that might come in handy.

I ho...

Press

It doesn't take much to put a dragon in their place. <3

Ok so good news is, there's a few pictures coming up over the next few days because they're all nearly finished. I know not much has been uploaded so far, but that's because I've been ping ponging between the current projects. I try to not do that so there's a more steady flow of uploads instead of these bulk drops at the end of the month. But things have been a bit crazy as of late, so times been short, so sorry about that!...

Design Poll - Sheep Feet

Ok so something I've been thinking about is this one specific detail on the sheep boy. How to handle the soles. I've gotten hang up on it a few time because I want to go for a more skin tone look for him. So i want to gather some data on what you lot think. I've found polls like this help me a lot to make up my own mind one way or the other.

2023 October WIP 2 - Wolves and Wips

So in this case we have some simping for a scarfed individual and some redo's of some of the art for the rat boy (God help me I was so sure on that one.)

Basically there's a lot of art for the rat that I really liked and I'm wanting to convert over into  Kass the sheep boy. Being that I feel a lot more sure on them going forwards. It's not going to be everything but there's some key pictures both finished and not that I want to start this process on.

It's probably going to ...

2023 October WIP 1 - Sheep Boys Sheep Boys

OK so, the main image here was a build up to test out a texture I found for doing prints/ridges for palms and soles. I've been dying to try and find something to make that process easier so I'm not killing my hands trying to hand draw dozens of swirling lines.

It's not quite where I'd like it, I'd rather have some kind of dynamic texture brush or something like that. But I've yet to find anything that does the job. Sooo in the mean time this might work out. Do let me know if you think...

Misty Tanning

The cool thing about a fire type is putting them to use on those cold, bad weather days.

Don't worry, he loves it!

I really need to come up with a name for this guy. Also it's been feeling good getting to deploy the sheep boy more.

Hot Foot

You know those fire types, always running hot... I'msosorry.

Ok so this is the first picture up, the second one should be following soon. Going to get some sleep and then look it over. I really wanted to try and play with the heat effects on the scorbunny. I couldn't quite get it how I wanted but I got it fairly close, so I'm happy with that. looking less happy to be under those heated paws though.

I want to apologize again for the delays this month. Really wasn't expecting to de...

2023 September WIP 6 - Mix of Extras

Aaand here's a few bits and pieces. (Hoping to get that first one finished off soon as well)
