WIP + ILLUSTS 06112020

Hello! 

Some completed illustrations and an upcoming wip! I ended up drawing Kokkoro anyways _(:3/ There's another few from the series that are really cute and I'm tempted to draw before getting to Taihou. So I thought, what if each month I pick a series via poll and draw several characters from it instead of just sticking to one character if I'm just going to draw more anyways- let me know if you have any thoughts on this!

The wip is actually from friends commenting on my sc...

[WIP] Kyaru!!

ok, the poll isn't over but she's winning and I just wanted to draw her- LOL if somehow someone else wins I'll just have to draw them too = v=

Also race kween taihou from azurelane is on my to draw list as well as she was a suggestion and I've thought of drawing her as well!

ps. thank you to those who preordered my arknights book!!! 

AK ARTBOOK Announcement

LET'S GOOOOOOO! It took me a while to finally get this all ready but it's finally coming together = v=

As a thank you I wanted to announce that all my patrons in Tiers 2 & up (and legacies can consider yourselves in these tiers at all times when I mention 2 & up) will receive the full digital version of this artbook! However, I'll be sending out the digital copies after the preorder period which will run till the end of this month. 

To those in these tiers who've supp...

JULY POLL!

Princess Connect is a bit out of my style zone but I've been seeing the characters fanart everywhereeee! I also watched a couple episodes of the anime since it's airing but have yet to continue.

I binged Hyouka, and I think it's one of the most prettiest animes I've seen in a while, the romance is also adorable, I wonder why I didn't watch it before.

Aaaand then there's Haruhi, I don't recall watching it but she's cute and I might go on a binge when I have the time.

As usual...

Custom Brush Set

Hello! 

Thank you for the support of my work （*´▽｀*）

Here's my brush set (as of 06/29/2020). The set includes my main set - custom brushes I created & other tools I use in most if not all my works.

I also included some extras that you may or may not have, but I find very helpful and use often. As illustrations differ, I plan to add more to the brush sets if I use different ones for specific illustrations in each months pack!

None of the brushes have a...

JK Nana + sketches

Usually there are tons of ideas in my head but getting it done is another story _(:3/

These are most of the roughs and sketches I've laid down so I won't forget the ideas. These sketches are all OC related btw! 

Also I'm working on a short r18 comic idea (let's say 4-5 pages) featuring Nana and Jun (from my comic) Hope I can complete these for July's pack! I added a preview for the first page ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) 

[PREVIEW] June Reward Pack + Jalter kabedon Illust

June's rewards will be sent out on the 29th!

This month the pack includes 16 illustrations (not including the alternate versions for some), 4 photo studies and a "how I color eyes" tutorial. Of course depending on the tier some will receive the source files (PSD/CLIP) and extras. 

There are 2 nsfw pieces this month(URAGONER uncensored & Nana lingerie - an alternative version)

NOTE:  the psd/clip source files for commercial work are not included (Arkn...

[WIPS + Illust] 062520

Nana abe finished!

Also 2 wips I was working on in a stream. Sometimes while streaming, I zone out while drawing and look at what I was working on afterwards only to think that I don't like how it's looking, so I'll be fixing up the jalter piece.

For tier 3 I'll do a before and after to show why and where I fix it since I personally am interested in seeing how other artist's thought processes are in building their illustrated pieces too (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و

I'll be post...

[WIP] Idolm@ster Nana Abe

A commission wip. I never draw characters like this so it's quite different from the usual.

Also a reminder to save whatever you like from the links sent out in May since I'll be removing them tomorrow!

061820 dump

Completed works + a wip since the last post!

I've also slowly started working on the comic again, I've been motivated to return to it but the comic process really is draining for some reason and so I'll take it slowly so I don't burn out.

So many of my webtoon friends have lost their passion and tread through their comic, viewing it as "just work" and I really don't want that to happen since 4Q(for those who don't know, I started drawing with this comic 2020-06-19 06:01:40 +0000 UTC View Post

Study no. 5 + Shy Nana + Zenith WIP

istg when I'm working on something, I make 3 more wips and then it becomes unlimited wip works (FGO reference ayy)

This study was different from the usual, using a photo of an object rather than a person. It was nice though, the photographer (source) has such aesthetic shots and I wanted to one day use them as reference for an illustration someday anyways so studying it felt worthwhile....

[ILLUST + WIP] 061220

Gitano from arknights 💙 I dont use her but I always thought she was pretty!

Nana wip is her being shy in cute lingerie. She's usually not shy about things but because "cute" is out of character she's embarrassed :3c

And 3rd one is a sketch of a friends goth monkey, he created her on a whim from a silly conversation we had LOL

[ILLUST] Noel & Zenith

Noel in her maid outfit for this months poll!
And a doodle page of Zenith cracking a cold beer after a job is done = v=

I'll be posting these on twitter at a later time & date!

I'll also do compiled posts of my art on here since I'm aware some have stopped looking at twitter due to recent events flooding the timeline. Hope everyones taking care of yourselves mentally and physically 🥺💕

Study No. 4 & Study WIP

Did a portrait study this time (I still made her into an anime girl bc I cant realism... at all) and it helps with one of the wips I'm working on, especially with the lighting and shadows of the blinds. I'm making this my "piece of the month" where I try to incorporate what I've learned through the studies so far (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و

The one with red lines is me currently trying to fix the perspective <-- HUGE PAIN. MUCH CRY

think it's still a bit wonky but it's way better tha...

Studies No. 2 & 3

Slowly getting the hang of studying like this. It really forces me to focus on an aspect of a painting but to also not mind the details. 

In the first one (train station) I didn't get the perspective quite right although the colors and values were pretty ok. So on the second one I tried to pay attention to that and specifically picked out a shot that was more composition/perspective based.

I'll add the psd/clip files for my studies too but like a lot of my works, I tend to me...

JUNE POLL

I'm guilty of binge watching vtubers... especially the ones from hololive LOL

And so here's the poll for this month! An image is attached for reference. Wish I could just post a photo along with these polls >:C

Gitano was suggested in the last poll but I think I'd just like to draw her anyways so that's a win :3c

Poll ends on the 7th so whoever gets the most votes then is the winner!

wips & study

The light colored one is for a friend's upcoming bday, Saria (arknights) is for my artbook coming up - in case you don't know, I have been working on an Arknights artbook for a long time and finally it's coming together soon! I'll figure out a way to have it for cheaper for my patrons if you're interested in grabbing one.

Saria's going to have a spicy version for June btw :3c

Aaand finally, I started doing one hour studies (where u do as much as u can within that hour only to repl...

[PREVIEW] May Rewards!

So I'm not sure if you've all heard but Patreon's about to start charging sales tax starting JULY 1ST so some changes to fees and such are going to change, hopefully not by much!

This is new to all of us and I'll see how it rides out but if it's going to cause issues for everyone I'm considering to move everything over to Pixiv FANBOX which is essentially the same thing as Patreon, although it does have less options...

On another note, the pack this month has 26+ ...

[WIP?] Nana Finally got to take her bath...

After teasing Kazuki on the phone, then dropping her phone in the bathtub, she finally got to take and finish her bath =v =

Will do an alternate version too ifyaknowhatimean 

Sailor Moon & Sailor Mars Redraw

It's been flooding my twitter timeline and I loved it as a kid so I'm joining the mass in redrawing them too! I actually only planned on drawing sailor Mars bc she needs more love and since I've already done the redraw of sailormoon a year ago, I don't have the original image anymore but it was posted on my instagram ( https://www.instagram.com/p/B0tRuySFFje/ )

BUT I wanted to draw it again anyways since it...

Notice + Nana doodles

It has come to my attention that there are quite a few who are new to patreon or had troubles accessing the files in the links that were sent out.

To clarify, after each months pack is sent out, I give approximately 1-2 weeks for everyone to save(download) the files to their devices before removing them! This is also so I could make more room to upload the next months rewards as I draw quite a bit and the files take up a lot of space in addition to multiple of the same ...

[ILLUST] Zenith - early access?

Saving this piece to post it on maid day (may 10th) but I'd like to share it with you all first! Tried to work more on the background, I still struggle with it but I think I can get the hang of it. THERE'S NO PAINTING WITHOUT PAIN *ugly sobs*

Also, all rewards have been sent to your inbox :D

May Character Poll

There's a few girls I've been eyeing to draw, but out of them who's your fave? I've added pictures this time in case some names are unfamiliar.

 The character with the most votes by the 4th of May will be decided winner!

For those in tier 3, feel free to drop suggestions for future polls. I'll need to figure out a way to incorporate these polls with pledge timings in case there are those who are just joining in temporarily _(:3/

[PREVIEW] April Reward Pack

Looking at the files, I was able to finish quite a lot of illustrations in April!

These are just several of them but there's about 18 completed works + more depending on the tier - ahem nsfw - Unfortunately I couldn't finish Mitsuri for the poll as it was already half way through the month when it was decided but I will finish that for May and will have another poll out in the next couple of days as well. 

I'll be sending out the rewards via inbox on the 4th.

Thank you ...

[WIPS] Nana & Zenith

I post the wips here and finals on twitter, but all the finished works in high res will be in a folder for the packs! The end of the month is right around the corner so I'll be working on that and will inbox you all in the next few days!

[WIP] Nana werkin it

I started working out again and hate it sm and that inspired me to draw this LOL

BTW LMK IF I SPAM TOO MUCH POSTS? I start a new drawing every time and my pile to finish just grows, why do I do this ; v ;

[WIPS] The list continues...

Two are commissions, the others are personal and random works :P

[WIP] Ai & Kei

These two will wrap up the illustrations I wanted to draw for the anime Love is War = v=

Gotta finish the Mitsuri piece now (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و

Kaguya wip + AK boy doodles

I'll be posting full wips on here as I only show snippets on twitter! Not sure if you guys would like to see all my wips as separate posts as I go or a compiled post as I don't want to spam either _(:3/

Hoping to draw 2 others from Love is war too since it's such a cute anime!

[WIP] Mitsuri x Iguro

Mitsuri won the poll!

(SPOILER)




Since the last manga update, rather than her on her own, I was thinking that I should draw her with Iguro. It was such a touching moment between them.

(*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)

And hello to the new patrons! I hope you'll enjoy your stay here. I'll do my best to post more updates and behind the scenes 🙏
