February 2017 Character Poll

Gonna try to draw at least a sketch of one of the following characters and get it in a completed state by the end of February 2017. Which would you like to see? The character with the most votes is the one I will draw!

NOTE 1: You may vote for more than one character.

NOTE 2: You may also suggest a character in the comments. This will count as one vote for that character. =}

Jan 22 WIPs: Male Banette & Futa Tortavi

Sorry I'm late getting these uploaded. Had some stuff I needed to deal with. Anyway, here's the result of what I was working on last night.

Male Banette (COMPLETED VERSION LINKED HERE)
- This is a gift for argon vile. =} This character is done, but I will be including it in a pack of four for the completed version I'll release for $1 patrons, and eventually the public.
- EDIT: Completed version now available in link above.

Futa Tortavi (image displayed in post)
- This is a character idea I wanted to explore. Basically a shell-less turtle (like Ket) with boobs and a big dick (& nuts). =P

WIPs and Recordings! [REWARD UPGRADE]

The $2/month Nerond Tier has been upgraded to the Arkmage Nerond Tier, with the additional rewards of WIPs and Recordings! Can't stay up crazy late at night to watch me stream? No worries! You'll be able to download recordings of my last five stream sessions from my Piczel stream page (use the password to get in then find them in the dropdown list on the left side of the page). Additionally, I'm now posting work-in-progress images from my streams for my $2 patrons to easily enjoy. =}

Thanks to all of my patrons for their support: temp_anon, Grey Sky, Jose Esteva, VCharD, Mista Red, and Neos8! You are the best!! Hope to have even more pals join the party~ ;}

Piczel Following / Art Stream Preferences

Hi all! =} This post is overdude, but I wanted to get your feedback on art streams. Obviously, as my patrons, you are gonna pay hard-earned dosh, so I wanna make sure I'm delivering right. I have a couple things to go over:

First, please follow me on Piczel!
https://piczel.tv/watch/KetRalus (current password is tortuevert)
...and click the button that says "Follow KetRalus"

• You may need to create/sign into an account and set your options first, but this will give you email notifications whenever I start streaming! =D

Second, I have A POLL here that I would like you to take:
https://goo.gl/forms/F2dbnI2PXa8qKeg33
I'm using this instead of Patreon polls to avoid making a ton of posts.

• FYI, Patreon gives me your emails (which I solemnly swear to keep private), so I'll be comparing them against the ones on the Google form to make sure people voted fairly and whatnot.

Thanks again for your support and your time! Please leave a comment below if you have any additional ideas or responses you'd like to share. =}

Gnin - Ket & Brask EDIT

High Quality versions in attachments.

This is a somewhat subtle edit of a 2011 Ket & Brask artpiece by Gnin that I still very much enjoy. =} My goal was simply to make the colors more closely match the official character references (best demonstrated in ver. 2). Along the way, I realized that the red color Gnin used on Brask's mouth and lower regions provided for a more erotic picture, so I made another version (ver. 1) where this was retained. I also increased saturation and did extra color adjustments for both versions.

First Goal Reached!

Wow, you guys are awesome! =D In same night of the Patreon launch, we've already reached the first goal! This means I'm going to get a Piczel Premium account for streaming and recording to my $2+ patrons. And for you $1 patrons, having me stream more means having me work more means having me post more art! I'll also be posting some polls in the coming days for all of my patrons to get feedback on other goodies I can offer you. Thanks again for being so awesome! =}

P.S. It looks like some of the Patreon counters are not updating properly, but at the time of writing this, we have 4 patrons pledging $10, FYI.

Gift Box #1

High Quality version in attachment.

Over the years, people have drawn a lot of free art for me out of the goodness of their hearts, but I never found the right time to repay their kindness... until now! I'm going to be doing several of these "Gift Boxes", each featuring four characters, and here's the first one. These are just simple sketches, but they're the first step on the road to reciprocation.

Here's the list of gifts, clockwise from the top-left, along with reasons for drawing these gifts:

• Red (alien), for Redemption3445
  business partner and one of my best buds; he's drawn a ton of great art for me
• Vert, for VertMB
  did a little Flash animation of Ket back in the day
• BrightMan.EXE, for CommanderStar
  drew Brask Vovik fan art once upon a time
• Brask, for temp_anon
  my dearest of dears =} he is also an author!

And the first gift art of 2017 is done by the same guy who did the first gift art of 2016, machv99! He fulfilled yet another pairing of mine in a new round of request art that he is currently doing. Thanks again, machv99!

Ket's Patreon Introduction!

Hey, pals! Ket here =}

I've been sharing my adult art with the world for about 15 years, and it has been a lot of fun! Nevertheless, I still have a lot of rule 34, gift art, and other smut that I want to create. In order to kick me in the turtle butt and make me more productive, I've decided to start this Patreon!

This post has been updated multiple times since I started, but I am concluding my edits as of 2017-11-30 12:24 AM. For details about reward items, please see the Rewards FAQ.

This is the start of a beautiful new era for your pal, Ket Ralus. Please help it flourish by pledging to me here on Patreon~ =}

Further Information

First, if you're looking for more art, I have 15 YEARS WORTH of artwork on my website's gallery, ket-ralus.com/gallery — It's all older stuff, but there are a lot of goodies: art, references, and cool commissions & gift art from other artists! ;}

Second, you may see some of my patron-only posts tagged "public", which means the content for that post has been made freely available on one or more of my galleries/blogs. This may be used retroactively on certain older posts, or for certain pieces of art (e.g. commissions) that were already posted online by approved people. If a post is tagged "public", you are free to share the content, but if NOT (which is the usual case), please keep it a secret! >=}
(By the way, NSFW art that is tagged "public" still has to be contained in patron-only posts, because Patreon's Terms of Service requires posts with adult content to be patron-only).

Third, please don't subvert the system! This means no posting my art online before I make it public to non-patrons. I have a watchful eye that spans the Interwebs. I'm good at noticing details, so don't try to sneak anything by me~ If you're not sure about something, please ask!

All that said, thanks again for stopping by, and if you're not already a patron, please pledge $1 or more and get piping hot Ket art delivered to you! =}
