Patreon Reward Jan-June 2020

I noticed that I had been ignoring the Patreon Reward of $10-$25 for a long time. I was trying to draw a big pictures with many character to adopt from like Sonic Girls I did back in Jan. But I realized that I still need a lot of time before I can complete it and I think I had postponed it for too long. So I’d like to offer full commission if you are interested. 

. $10 Patron: feel free to commission me anything in $60

. $25 Patron: feel free to commission me anything in $1...

Strange that I do enjoy shipping arts very much, but I created so little of them.

Wear a mask and stay safe

Covid-19 is still going strong. Wear a mask and stay safe everyone! (Though I must admit that wearing one in summer time is a very painful experience.)

Parody:  Sonic Boom Episode 43: Fuzzy Puppy Buddies

D&D is often considered the grand father of western RPG. Though never played it before, many of my favorite RPG in video game  such as Fallout has their roots in D&D. I would love play some D&D If I can gather a group of friends (though very unlikely it could happen^^; ).

Patreon Exclusive

Colored sketches I accumulated over the months. 

Sorry, I really should produced more exclusive content as I promised. I should try harder since now I have closed for commission.

FS teaching how to wash hands

Since I work in a long term care facility, I am mandated to received proper infectious disease control education. Here I share what we do in Taiwan on how to properly rubs hand during hand washing. I translated them from my Mandarin learning sheet. Each of the seven steps is corresponded to a Chinese character(on the upper left corner).  combining all seven character is a poem-like verse that help reader to remember, but I really don't know how to translate them to become a poem, so I di...

A remaster of an old sketch.

I had been very unproductive for the past 3 months. Primarily because I opened for commission and they consumed too much of my time and energy. πŸ˜“Therefore , I think I'll be closing it and redirect my attention to here soon(maybe in the middle of the month).

Trying out brushes that with  texture. I think I made the overall image a little too messy. I will try to make a cleaner one in my next attempt.

emoji SS

A less detailed attempt for creating emoji. I think these are better set than my previous attempt since her expression is more visible after shrinking down.

Emoji FS

Since someone asked me how much if they commission for emoji, I drawn these to see how much time I need to spend on them. Unfortunately,  I think I'm not very successful with the emoji at hands. I drawn too much details that disappeared upon shrinking down. The expression became hard to tell after shrinking down to certain size. I probably need to give another try before including them as an commission option.

Happy holiday!

I'm really sorry that I'm not as productive as I should be. Opening for commission really take a toll on me.  (Though those extra cash does help with the bill for my mother's denture, which cost me $1900 USD! Man, denture is expensive! Which  really motivate me to pay attention to take care of my teeth.)

I still got quite a bit of idea I wanted to draw, but it's clear that I could not make it this year. Hopefully I could do better next year.

Another practice for trying out grayscale shading and coloring technique. 

I must admit I struggle quite a lot with this technique. This technique would make the overall image grayer, which a lot of the time make the image look more realistic. But becomes a disadvantage for me since most things I draw, are highly saturated, whimsical characters, which is often in conflict with the technique's grayer presentation. I therefore had to use Photoshop's many color adjustment to...

#ThankYouPatrons

For  #ThankYouPatrons day.

As you might already guess, I'm not really good with words. (well, it's not my native language after all.) It is not an easy task for me to casually converse with English, let alone coming up with fancy rhetoric to show my appreciation. 

So, all I can say is THANK YOU for your constant supports! If it had not been you guys, I would've given up on becoming an artist. I wish you all have a wonderful life! 😊

I did want to draw another full body artwork for it as well, but I find myself didn't have the time for that since I already announced that I'll start accepting commissions today.

Get my PC back! Plan to open for commission soon!

After the long wait, my CPU and motherboard are finally back. Interestingly, my CPU actually upgrade a little bit. The manufacturer said that they no longer produce that product, therefore they send me a slightly better CPU instead. For this I paid about $60 for repair fee.  On the other hand, my motherboard  seem to have more problem, the employee of the store said he send  my motherboard out twice since in the first time it came back, it is still broken, so he had to send out...
