2022-01-31 00:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostI was asked by LuistheFoxxo to update his bust to include his trademark camo bandana. This is how the process went! :3
This also shows how I go about doing realistic camouflage textures from scratch, so maybe this counts as a tutorial as well?
2022-01-30 23:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostJust a heads up that I'm going to be making a couple of changes to monthly thank you images!
1. I'm going to be posting the custom artwork I make for them separately a month later, so the artwork can be liked/faved/shared separately for those who want to. Because the monthly thank you image will act like an early preview of new artwork, I ...
2022-01-29 01:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostOnce again, this was suggested by Nathansnake for my December 2021 Patreon thank you image! I loved drawing this, so thank you for that. :D
2022-01-29 00:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostThis month's drawing was suggested by Nathansnake, who wanted young Nes getting a Christmas present. It felt perfect. <3
Also wow, I got a surprising number of new patrons this month! Please welcome Cobalt Tiger, Nest971124, Animal Desire, Jaxon...
2022-01-28 23:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostI can't decide if I like the original sketch or the tiedown better, so I've included both!

2022-01-27 00:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostThis was requested by Andy S in the first suggestion box of the year! He requested either Nes, Ryan, Nick, or Tem snowboarding. It had been a long time since I drew Nick, so I chose him. The last time I drew him was 2022-01-26 23:00:03 +0000 UTC View Post
I may color this at some point, but for now I'll leave this as is. :3
Taylor was a tortoiseshell cat, so getting her markings right is a huge challenge. xD
2022-01-25 00:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostI wasn't planning to do a tiedown of this, but after finishing the sketch, I thought - why not? :3
Also, I changed the eyebrows a little between the sketch and tiedown.
2022-01-24 23:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostThe first image were some thumbnail ideas I had for the cover! I was originally going to do nine, but the third one came out so well that when I was part way through drawing the fourth one, I stopped because I just KNEW that was going to be the cover. Christopher agreed!
In the original sketch, Arney the Moose was going to be flanking alon...
2022-01-23 23:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostSo this is what I was busy with last year and had to keep secret until now - my first illustrated children's book! :D
Eddie the Yeti is a new book series being written by Christopher Scott, with character designs and illustrations by yours truly! Hard Work Wins the Game is the first book in the series, which follows Eddie...
2022-01-23 04:46:48 +0000 UTC View PostI wasn't planning on drawing Markus at all, but after seeing the similarly styled drawings I did of Ryan, Nes, and Tem, I felt it was the right thing to complete the foursome. I do have other characters I could draw too, but these are my main four so I'm going to call this set completed for now. :3
Ryan got the green background due to his ...
2022-01-22 01:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostI changed the hilt for his sword at the last minute. I decided I didn't like it and went with something different that I thought suited him better. ^^;
2022-01-22 00:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostSorry again about the lack of posts the past couple of days, but again I'll do some extra ones today to make up for it. I should get back into regularly doing daily posts starting tomorrow... for reasons. You'll see. :3
2022-01-21 23:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostRyan got the green square (due to his eyes), Nes got the blue square (due to his eyes and his nose strip), and Tem gets a red square due to his amulet gem color!
2022-01-19 04:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostSorry for the lack of posts the last few days! I'm doing three posts tonight to make up for it.
The first sketch was my first pass before deciding to start over. Then every image after that is the development of the final sketch! As you can see I went through a few passes on the head angle/expression. it was difficult to get it down in a w...
2022-01-18 23:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostThere may not be a post tomorrow since I'm doing a double post today, but otherwise, enjoy! I'll try to get a new Little Runt page up soon too. <3
2022-01-15 00:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostAs I said yesterday, I wanted to color this in the same way that I colored Ryan's picture from last week. I'd say it was very effective! :3
I'm surprised how well my tiedown lines are working as a substitute for ink lines. They're easier to do as well for some reason. Maybe I should stick to doing this sort of thing?
2022-01-14 23:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostThis was the new-and-improved version that I made that was much closer to what I originally had in mind. I restarted from the third progression sketch because I liked that original drawing/pose a lot - I just drifted away from it trying to solve another problem.
You can see the rejected/alternate version in my posts from yesterday, as well...

2022-01-12 19:12:01 +0000 UTC View PostSorry these are so tiny, but technically these are the full-res copies haha. Like with the emotes, I make these small to force me to consolidate detail early on. If I start doing too much detail, it'll show, and it's better to know I'm doing so earlier rather than later!
These are also transparent, so they'll fit well in chat no matter wha...
2022-01-12 05:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostI finally got around to making sub badges for my Twitch stream! :D
It goes through rainbow colors for the first year, then bronze, silver, gold, and diamond, capping off at five years (although I may shorten that to just a few years.)
I originally thought about doing swords, or even shields, but in the end I decided a cute otter face...
2022-01-11 17:22:00 +0000 UTC View PostSurprisingly I haven't drawn that many squirrels! This is the first squirrel-related art I've posted on Patreon, and there's only 11 results on DeviantArt (with the most recent being June 2019).
Well, here's one more to the tally, and if you haven't, check out the comic this guy is from: 2022-01-07 23:00:03 +0000 UTC View Post
I really love how this turned out! <3
2022-01-06 23:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostThis guy belongs to Kobb/Rachel Bennet, from the Beyond the Western Deep webcomic as I'm sure a lot of you know about. I've never drawn a proper picture of him before, so... I'm changing that!
2022-01-05 23:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostHere we go, all colored! :3
2022-01-05 02:45:00 +0000 UTC View PostI woke up today and realized that it wouldn't be too hard to color this, and it would probably look really nice! I love how the drawing came out so... why not give it a shot? :D
To check out how the sketch itself was developed, see this post!
2022-01-04 22:23:00 +0000 UTC View PostHere's Ryan's brand new look for 2022! And by that I mean literally just adding that little line under his nose and making his legs a little skinnier, haha. I'm not sure if it'll be permanent, but I liked how it looked here sooooo... I kept it!
