Woo! Tier One - Polls

Ello! 

We reached 12 patrons! That's so awesome! 

I was a little antsy today. It was supposed to be a rest day but here I am and I've already started the next project. I kind of had an idea of what I wanted to draw for the next few projects but I figured I should really get the ball rolling on some of the tier stuff I had talked about. 

So the next post that's going up after this will be a poll! All I ask is that you please vote. I don't think it shows who voted for what or if I can even see that. It would re...

No Competition - FIXED -

Boom! Tattoo is done. Now I'm gonna rest. Enjoy!

No Competition

Ugh.. I forgot her siren tattoo... I guess I'm not done today..

----------Edit Above-----------

So I'm a little frustrated because I can't find a single good screenshot of Moze's bedroom to work the background off of. My only solution would be to reconnect my ps4, update everything, boot up my save and then get the screenshot and transfer it over here. That just feels like a rabbit hole atm because, unsurprisingly, drawing Borderlands stuff has got me wanting to play the game. For now, until I can...

Now Streaming - 12:30PM (PST)

Here we go!

THE STREAM! 

New Plan...

So today I picked myself a whole bouquet of whoops-a-daisies.. I was experimenting with coloring and it was simultaneously a success and a major failure. It looks cool, to me but I don't think I can salvage the layer.. because the layer is the wrong color.

So simply put, I have 3 layers set for Tyreen's skin, one base deep color, one for overall lighting and one for where the lighting is going to be strongest. 

I was working on the overall lighting layer and at some point in me trying to figure how to do some new coloring, w...

My Setups Update/New Upcoming Tier's talk

Okay, so first of all, I didn't get the job I interviewed for. On the bright side I wanted to say thanks for all the support so far, it's been blowing my mind. I am sorry the past day or so hasn't really seen anything new, there's a reason for that, I swear. 

Yesterday was my anniversary so I spent the great majority of it just with my wife and then at the end of the night decided to tackle rehardwiring how I draw. 

It started because I was starting to have wrist pain whenever I was drawing so I dug up the little remote...

Second Batch of Hi Res Pics

So I decided to throw a few more in the mix for people to catch upon while I work on some stuff today. I also realized I made Riju the cover for the last post but, at the time, forgot to include her in the attachment area and also to post it on FA so she's down below here and in the last post now.

To the new patrons joining us, thank you for your support.  It eases my stress to know that people are interested in what I can make. I'd message individuals directly but I don't like the idea of putting people on the spot when they mi...

Fur Affinity/Deviant Art/Twitter Catch Up Resolution Pics

Ello~!

So I didn't post in FA or anywhere else but here for like 9 months. So instead of having people dig through previous posts to find the hi res images. I'm gonna do a chunk post right now. They'll be below.

Enjoy!

Alien Isolation

Sooo... Who would win in this fight? 

So this goes back a little before the #SixFanarts one and probably should have gone up first but there's a reason for that. I was going to post it on here and then on FA but when I went on my FA account I realized I had left my last post on the damn thing as 'all slots taken.' Not even as a wip like I had thought in the last post. The WIP is just that burned into my brain. So that, in my mind had to go up first before I could post anything else.

Anyway, enjoy! I'll see you a...

#SixFanarts

So this is an old one that I had to almost entirely revamp because, well, I saved over the final file with a back up version and as a result was left with the old wip sketch that's still up on FA. 

Naturally I was kind of devastated and whenever I was willing myself to work on it again, I'd just be reminded of my mistake too much to ever try. 

New year means new beginnings, so here we are. I'm not going to shade this. This was just a fun warm up to get back into things. 

I'v got my own head-cannons for what's...

I'm back.

Things have derailed so quickly. And quite horrendously. So… I’m going to put my goals on hold because I have no other option while I tackle a more prominent event in my life right now. 

Our PUA (Pandemic Unemployment Assistance), our current means of income has stopped, and our jobs that we had waiting for us when it was supposed to end aren’t as viable as we thought. Plain and simple, we need money to get by. Between the two of us, we have about a thousand dollars. Bills, medication, dog food; those are my big three right ...

I severely underestimated how much I've drawn...

The link for the collection is here!

_-Update Above-_________________________________________________________________

Ello'! 

No link yet, the damn thing is still uploading. 

I've been drawing since 2008 and I didn't start digitally saving anything until 2011. I've had ups and downs, just like anyone. I've had good years, bad ones, and some downright weird one...

So long for now..

(tl:dr at bottom)

So I’m very burned out, not art-wise, just everything else-wise. I've been kind of a mess the past few days, trying to figure out a way to make this all work but there's no clear way. I love drawing, I like to think that if I could draw for the amount of time that I actually want to on a day to day basis, well, I imagine I could be quite good at it. To be near a level of the “The Greats”. But I don't have that time, I have bills that need to be paid and a family to think about. For now, I've put some last images...

Anatomy Sketches

I've got a few good ones in here this month. The last of the intkober stuff is down below, too. 

Inktober Prompts

Fair warning, only like 2 of them have any real color and I missed a chunk of the later portion of this month. They're all at different stages of completion because once their day passed, I stopped working on it. The Shark is one of my favorites I've done in awhile, her name is Chelsea.

I'll be making three posts on the 31st, one for the last of the Inktober days, one for the Anatomy Sketches, and one text post to talk about what's going to happen from November onward. Really stressed and now that I'm thinking about it, that might be w...

It's the 14th!

I put the 1st Inktober prompt and Anatomy sketch for the month in the attachments below.

I figured I could do something the 1st, the 14th, and the 28th. I've been kind of just consumed by working on daily anatomy, inktober stuff(even though I'm doing it a bit differently), nudging some other stuff in there and trying to find a game to play in my forced down times, oh and trying to get this math stuff done before November. All in all, it's been crazy. So the 28th should bring with it 28 anatomy sketches, 28 inktober days, and...

It's October!

Okay!

Ello!

So it's the first of the month! I seriously do not have any time to spare, I’ve got an inktober prompt to do, comic stuff, I’ve got to do math courses to get smarter to get into the school I want, still got to fix those alts, got anatomy drawings to do, still learning Japanese, it's October(my favorite month btw) and the clock is ticking! See you tomorrow! Stay safe! Stay spoopy!

Batch for September 2020

(Update below the cut)

Ello, it's like 4 in the morning right now but I wanted to get this up before I fall asleep otherwise it'll be the afternoon before this gets out. I'm a little frustrated because when I saved some of the alts, I overwrote the original .sai file so I lost like 3 but I'll get them out when I can. A new month will be upon us, soon, and with that I hope to kick off my schedule that I'm always rambling about. The batch file is mostly so I can start revealing alts but it's also so people can see the posts from earlier ...

AT - RP

Ello. I tackled an older project that always kind of bothered me. I don't think I'm going to post the original just because it's so bad. This should be out in a few days. 

I'm excited for the 28th. 

Still kind of tired, will probably nap after this, try and recharge. If I can make it work, it should be 9 characters when I'm done, if not then 8. Either way, I think that's the most I've ever had in one thing at a time. I wanted to work on scenes more. 

Anyway, I hope you all have a good day. See you in the next...

So..

The past few hours have been a bit of a downward spiral that just seems to be getting worse. We took our dog in to the emergency vet tonight. We're waiting for answers, I'm having a hard time focusing on anything really. In a silly way I wonder if this is like some cosmic joke I'm just never meant to understand. It's like every time I try to just keep pushing forward, I'm tested again and again. I tried to change my mindset, stay positive and it feels like I’m getting beat down harder and harder for even trying to. This year has been rough...

Sashi Kobayashi

Found an old folder of stuff that was done(ish) but wasn't great so I did a quick pass over and will be working on them here and there between projects. Here's Sashi Kobayashi, updated from a sketch from like 2017.

17 Natalia Korda

Took a bit, but tis done. To answer some questions, there are alts for some of the drawings but they won't be released until the 28th so that way you all have something new to look forward to rather than just repeats of the work I'd already shown for the month. I am working on some other stuff, I'll post it after this one. 

16 Six

I like gradient shading before I go into actual coloring so this to me, is really fun. I'm going to take it easy today since I did two last night.

Okay, Fran Bow or Natalia Korda next? 

I'm gonna get a bite to eat for now. 

7 Nanako

Hoooo boy, this was an ordeal but I like how it came out. I did a two-fer. Six from Little Nightmares is up next after this uploads. 

8 Stephanie Tate

Tis done, for the most part. Just needs a background. 

4 Purah

Finished this yesterday. Gonna work on Stephanie Tate tomorrow. Wait, today. It's 2 in the morning. Anyway, hope you all like it. I don't know what I'm doing with the tags anymore. I need to go through one day and just fix everything, clean house, get rid of the really old stuff. idk, I'll figure it out. 

1 Sakura

Yesterday evening was about the time I felt better enough to actually sit down and draw without shaking or feeling like I'm going to pass out. Been having lots of soup and some meds to get through the past few days. Today, I feel a hell of a lot better. I was supposed to just do the line work and that was it but I went a tiny bit farther so when I come back to it next month, I can just have coloring being that month if Sweets can't get to it. So last month was adjusting all the scans, this month will be lining all of them, and then next mont...

Update/The adjustments

Hey, everyone. This week has kind of been abit of a bear. I've been exhausted an d sick, I can't really see out of my right eye. My extended family is being petty as I could imagine. I'l get more into that when I can. They're catholic and were holding a wake of sorts this week, I can't remember there name for it. Well, actually more like three separate ones since all the infighting has began. Anyway, based on the meeting with the funeral parlor last saturday, the viewing is on the 2nd, and the actual funeral is on the 3rd. I might not even g...

Halfway done

My eureka moment was breaking down my scans and reshaping what I had using the editing tools in Sai2 rather than trying to draw over the images and making the corrections as I went which is a lot slower and wellllll, still made made a bunch of errors. 

This way, if, say I don't like the way the trap, lat, bicep, or thigh are looking, I can shift each individual component to the shape the way I want without having to redraw those areas. Like I'll make that exposed glute a little smaller before I draw over this. But this way, I salv...

Update - Fires in California

Hey, everyone. This week has been not so good. Three big things. We have the fires in California, Illness, and a death in the family.

I've been holding off mentioning the fires. The air quality has been pretty bad the past few days as the fires have been growing. I think there are over 300 fires in our state atm and only roughly 5% contained. The fires are near me and my family. There are evacuation orders for the towns surrounding mine and I'm kind of waiting for it to be out turn. Holding out, hoping it won't cross the river and c...
