November is a Month

There are a few pieces I had planned for October that I was not able to finish on account of how much of a struggle last month was for me, I am going to go ahead and take advantage of the fact that they are at least already sketched out to get a head start on just completing some of them this month - spooky season ends when we say it ends!

On that note for tomorrow's sketch stream and for the remainder of this month: instead of having a specific theme, It's going to be open - if someone...

October Art Dump

Spooooooky!

Halloween Hilda 2023

In cool mint and fruit punch flavors!

Sunday Sketches

Still pretty slow this month.

Sunday Sketches

Oh yeah, this "posting the next day" thing. That's the stuff.

No Sketches to Post

No sketches to post this week, rolling over the work from last Sunday to this weekend and will post everything on next Friday.

EDIT: Actually this is a good time for a minor change. Because of the sketch streams being on Sunday, I think its probably a good plan to switch my post day to Monday instead of Friday. That way stuff gets posted to patreon pretty soon after the sketch stream and I'm not freaking out as much about the rest of the work that week... probably. Maybe. I'm very bad a...

October WIPs

Only one sketch got finished this week so I'm going to hold onto that until next week and jsut posting some WIPs on the other seasonal stuff I'm working on tonight. Hopefully will have a better week.

Side Project Nonsense

Some drink designs for a cyberpunk bar and a revisit of an old Shadowlark Character. most of this week was spent getting a new workstation up and running and trying to organize things for the month. Don't worry, back to tiddy now that things are less disorganized.

(Yes I know the color pallet does make Ghaston look a bit like Rick).

Witchy Stream Sunday

Sketch commission streams resume this weekend with witch theme. I wound up replacing my workstation so I might be a little clumsy with my tools, please go easy on me while I continue to set up the new rig as I work.

Most of what I have been working on this week was just organization and a little bit on side projects, more tiddy soon once I get some good spooky smish ideas going.

October Is A (Spoooooky) Month

I skipped stream today so i could be a little more organized for the October sketch stream when it starts: we are still going to get four weekends this month to get a lot of sketches done so it should work out just fine: the stream focus will be "Witches" but I plan on being pretty flexible about it. More or less just a theme instead of going too hard on rules.

Although I technically did a October themed comic just before the month start; I still wan to do something Halloween focused f...

September Art Dump

I didn't almost forget to post this. Who told you that? I'll bite them!

I thought there was more unused sketches and gestures from the streams but I think they almost all got claimed and used in the end? At any rate I cannot seem to find them.

September Stream Sketches

Final Batch for the month! Ending with boob focus as dictated by the scrolls. 

Weregoth Season

It's that time of year again~!

Proudly showcasing Barria's complete lack of any figure except boobs.

More Design Work

Only slightly more exciting than spending a bunch of time trying to figure out how to fix my comic script is some random design work stuff for the other projects. Nothing super exciting but gives some idea about the stuff I have been trying to bake.

Sunday (and other days) Sketches

Kind of... a lot this week. I did a bunch offstream to make up for impulse spending. Also someone politely requested that I start attaching even the sketch files on these posts to make downloading them easier.

Sunday Sketches

Someone paid me to draw Over One Hundred this week <3

Cyber Fantasy Scribbles and Stream Gestures

kind of a pseudo wip because I dont have anything interesting to show for private island this weekend. The angel hacker is one of the adoptable concepts for a set I am working with my friend Nighto for and it's a good example of I don't do adoptables because I fall in love with characters too easy. But its a fun project to work on. The rest of the stuff is just gestures from sketch streams. the first two havent been used for anything yet so might just go into my unused gestures folder for lat...

Sunday Sketches

Apparently the theme last weekend was "expressions". And boobs. But that feels normal on all counts for us!

September is a Month

Continuing the schedule from last month because it was working pretty well and is easing me back into productivity: Sundays are going to be Sketch commission streams while I focus on patreon content like the comic the rest of the week, with posted updates on Fridays. I may do work streams on Mondays and Thursdays: but not if it gets in the way of completing patreon content: there is still stuff from the old polls I need to complete as well as comics.

Streams are usually 1pm PST 2023-09-02 05:06:00 +0000 UTC View Post

August Art Dump (and some new stuff)

Some things from this last weekend that didn't get a chance to get posted to accompany this month's art dump.

Private Island WIP

I'm still struggling to get a lot of this to come together but its making progress slowly. Once I am happy with designs and thumbnails it will go faster.

Sketch Stream Smishes

From Sketch Streams this month. One more Sunday in the month to go so there will be a few more before the month is done.

Continuing Streams

I'll be continuing the sketch commission streams this Sunday and then do some smaller streams (general work streams) on Monday and Thursday for a couple of hours starting at the same time: 1pm PST. Next Friday I'll be posting all the sketch coms so far along with comic and illustration progress.

Sketch Stream Sunday

In order to deal with the everything that has gone wrong with my life lately I am going to be starting up sketch commission streams on the weekends again starting this weekend ( 1pm pst https://picarto.tv/Icymasamune ). Assume technical difficulties as its been a while since I did this and might have some problems getting things to work right.

Yeah this means that I won't be taking full commissions from the wait list...

August is a Month (Let's Make it a Good One)

No health crisis. No family emergency. No disasters. This month is just going to be me working on comics and illustrations. Maybe some commissions. And nothing is going to crash and burn.

They can't all be bad days.

I don't know what to say other than that. I have lost a lot of support on patreon the last two years due to the constant emotional and financial crisis. And the combination has made me pretty bitter about drawing and my life in general - not enough to do anything dras...

July Artdump

Despite everything I somehow managed to squeak a few things in this month. Most of this stuff is things I can finish next month after I have a couple days to heal my brain.

Barria and Boobcarts

I didn't want to leave you hanging completely this month so these are just simple lineart for now, I'll do proper colors for them next month - but for now I wanted to at least give you some stuff to enjoy.

Someone asked me to do some boobcart gestures for a personal project and I also kind of want to turn them into simple illustrations for my own characters: so boob carts for everyone!

Illustrations and Art Dump On Sunday

Basically giving myself the last possible minute to get stuff finished to post. I'll also be putting up the comic script progress then too.

Next month is going to be a good month. I'm due for one.

Burnout Recovery WIPs

Picking some things from my abandoned sketches to build on while I force myself to draw and some comic prep stuff. Also including the outline for the comic project in the attachments if you want a preview of it.

Skipping This Week

My dad is in the hospital. He's probably fine now. I don't want to talk about it; just letting you know I did not get any work done this week.

Aiming for a comic script and some illustrations to post on Wednesday/Friday (let's be realistic, probably Friday).

Yeah I know. July is already not going well and its half over.

Peace.
