Aurene
Doodling our precious dragon hatchling. Gotta figure how to draw her crystals. This one + two more pictures and I'm officially clearing my to do list, yay.Update: done!
Wakfu fanart poll
Choosing one of the Wakfu cuties \o/
General fanart poll
Who should I draw this month? You decide. <3
late night
Second patronage commission done for Nioartes. <3 I went for the experimental aspect and played with stylization. Glad about the outcome.
wip
In the process of doodling a personal GW2 piece. Planned to do it yesterday hah.. Once I'm done with it, back to commissions.Update: done~
$50 tier limited to 1 patron
Changelog thingie. Currently I don't have both slots taken, so I decided to limit it to 1 slot, because I'm still feeling a little tired overall and the $30 worth commissions included in that tier.. I've been overdoing them. I started taking them too seriously, just as the monthly fanarts. I'm in the process of reconsidering my skills/money value, sorry if it affects some of you in an unintended way.Basically I'm still thinking that I'm drawing too much for too little money. I'll stick with the only current $50 patro...
scribe
An overdue patronage commission for Nioartes. Still gotta draw this nerd one more time. :9
Zadaam
Trying to come up with a quick but detailed ref for my rat baby. Drawing is hard today.
sadida god
Slowly getting there. I'm sorry that it takes so long. TwT If you guys still remember, it was a fanart poll result from.. Some time ago lmao. *falls face down*Update: done. \o/
wip?
You know that ingame animation is good when you're attempting to study it. :'D These are just keyframes but I don't have patience to go all day, might add more frames for smoother animation sometime later. =w=;;;;
changes for $5 and $10 tiers
The $10 reward tier didn't have patrons for months, so I'll take this as opportunity to move some rewards around. Namely, the second suggestion box, Wakfu/GW2 themed, becomes available at $5. The other rewards remain unchanged, 2 extra "early access" drawings are staying as a $10+ reward.

I'm a simple man: I get told that people love my pandas, I start doodling one.
Human!Zemma
First thing I doodled in days. Pretty nice for a warm-up, and suddenly it's a human version of one of my asuras.
.
A single, severely misunderstood statement caused a shitstorm. Great. Now I at least know who's a real patron and who was there for a cheaper version of commission (since fanart polls are commissions in some form). I won't be saying I'm not damaged by the drama, but I'm angry enough to recover after some time.As about fanarts, I'll keep going for one more month and then we'll see. It'd be unfair to change the reward tiers in the end of the month, so I'll wait 2-3 weeks from now on, it'll give me time to recov...
Discussion.
This was gonna be a reply buried under other replies, I feel like it deserves a better visibility.Honestly I don't want anything right now. I'm too tired. I just don't wanna draw at all and it's been like this for months. There's no way out, unless my financial situation improves. I can't work harder so there's no chance at opening commissions or something.I've been doing the suggestion boxes + polls, drawing what people want for over a year now, only, EXCLUSIVELY, in hopes that more various fanart attracts more ...
Changes in monthly fanart quality
I'm constantly thinking about one, sadly, unpleasant thing: currently I don't really get paid for the two fanarts (suggestion boxes + polls) I draw for you every month. It's not your fault since you guys are already my patrons, rather, this fanart system is designed for a larger patron number which I still didn't accumulate.So I'll be cutting down the quality/time spent on the monthly fanart doodles. They aren't exactly doodles right now.. I love y'all and I've been trying my best for you, which resulted in overw...
wip
Shaking off the rust, I need a lot of warming up.. And less days spent without drawing at all.. oTLThis's a WIP of a silly promotional comic, you'll see the finished version on my tumblr soon.Update: all I was able to draw so far. Feeling a bit unwell again, so I put the drawing away for now. At least you get to see the Comics In Development. *insert excited audience screams here*
beach series
Second part of the "early-ish access" pack, originally was available to $5+ patrons 3 weeks ago. C:
beach series
Time to start revealing the contents of July reward packs ($5+ patrons), as usual, I'll start posting here a few days before publishing on tumblr/DA, to give my $1+ patrons a little extra thanks.I wasn't able to enjoy summer irl, instead doodled a lot of sunny stuff. ;w;
hoomans
I have "just" 3 humans in GW2 (compared to like a dozen asuras ahem..) and all of them are different armor weight classes. Thought it's neat and wanted to doodle them, just because. Man, drawing is hard today.A colorful update y'all
GW2 fanart poll
Our first GW2 poll! Don't worry, Wakfu will come back next month. As I've said previously, the two fandoms will be rotating from now on.
General fanart poll
Quite a few suggestions this month. :D Choose your favorite, and I'll draw it.
done
Enjoyed coloring her, it was kinda experimental, hope you like how it turned out.
Uraraka
Drawing last month's patron choice, Uraraka Ochako from BNHA~Update with progress:
No. 6
Finished a patron commission! These dudes are main characters from No. 6, a nice manga and anime. I watched it when it was airing.. And thought it wasn't that long ago.. But actually it was 2011.. Holy crap, time flies. :'D And it was an absolute pleasure to draw a fanart of this thing.
wip
Working on a patron commission. I wonder how many would recognize the characters at this stage.. :D
Reminder + a little life ramble
Fanart suggestion boxes are still waiting for you guys, you can throw your ideas and get them drawn by me later, if the rest of patrons votes for your suggestion. Find the boxes a little below this post! I'll leave them open for 2-3 more days.And a life update: things have been slow on my end, and not surprisingly, I was sick again since the start of the month. ;A; Something stress-related, but the pain was real and prevented me from functioning normally. I've been feeling better these days though, so I'll be getting back on track. ...
crystal desert
I wanted to make a doodle to celebrate the GW2 PoF beta weekend which starts today, yeah, 11-13th. Currently drawing this and hoping not to get carried away because time. =A=I'll make an official info post soon (on tumblr and DA), but if you were considering trying GW2 or getting a buddy into it, you can already start downloading the client. Also please if you do it, use my affiliate link to register a new account.Update: done, took a while because I didn't like where it was going, still don't quite like the result, but it'll do...
Zemma
I downloaded the official GW2 brushes/assets and played around for a bit, then, inevitably, added a character. B) Druid magic and desert-like outfit! And a bit of sand because the expansion hype.Showing it here now, will post publicly a few weeks later, as a part of my monthly art deal with Anet. :P I coulda just included it into the patron reward pack, but I wasn't recording or making progress screenshots, so.. =w=;;;
wip
Preparing a cute picture for my first GW2 giveaway, sponsored by Anet themselves. Cool beans. The giveaway will start tomorrow or so, will be on my tumblr.
