Pull Up a Chair

 "I'm glad you could make it. I'd offer you a seat, but there seems to be a shortage - this place is just packed."

Tafyrae has invited Shortcake out to a fancy dinner. Once he arrives, he realizes the 'night on the town' she had planned may be a bit more literal than he had expected.

Also, I like this one enough I might just finish it. What do you guys think? :)

Patrons Choice Follow-up

Okay, so I think there are enough people who think my previous post is a bad idea that it's clear I need to reconsider it some. For now, I'll go back to the drawing board and think about this for a bit. Thank you all for your feedback! I promise when I come back with this again it'll be more thought out!

Patron's Choice Announcement

Hey folks!

So, I had an idea - and I kind of want to test the waters to see if you all are okay with it.

For one month - I'd like to flip roles for the Patron's Choice. That means $1 and $5 tiers, you all will be submitting the ideas, and getting that imagination moving, and $10 tier, you guys will be the only people who get to vote on what comes out.

This'll mean for one month, we'll have a ton of ideas from people who don't usually get to submit, with a ...

Too Sweet

I wanted to do a little birthday gift for SugaryViolet, who's a pretty great artist and friend. :D

The Princess is in Another Castle

It's done! I had a lot of fun with the painting, but surprisingly it was the background that took me longer than anything. Like twice as long. o_o 

I had fun though, and I *think* this is the first full-color picture Tafyrae's appeared in.

I might do a couple of tweaks before I post this to dA in a few days. I wanted to drop the mostly finished product here for you all first though. Thanks to everyone who came by the stream today!

The Princess is Wearing Another Castle

I did a 20 minute doodle at lunch and I actually really like it. I want to clean this up or do more with this. Does anyone else have an interest in seeing Taffy, our resident Draenei of Unusual Size outgrowing a castle or two?

Smug

My finger slipped, and I did a really smug Tafyrae. I may or may not have been experimenting with game design stuff.

Skyscraping

Whoops! I thought I had the latest version up here, but I guess it didn't have all the street details. Here's the final version!

Also, I want to extend a very special thanks to all you Patrons out there. I can't say enough what a big deal it is that you all support me like this. You are fantastic, wonderful people, and I really hope you have enjoyed what this whole Patreon experiment has yielded thus far. :)

Vault - Love Like You

This is the other sketch from last night's stream! I experimented a little bit with painting on it, (which I'm sharing below), but I don't think I quite know how to paint just yet. It was fun to play with though, and pretty chill.

Thanks everyone for coming out to watch!

Vault - No Room at the Inn

I have really been on a Tafyrae kick lately, so I wanted to come up with something for her during the stream last night. To be honest, I did the pose first... And then spent the rest of the time trying to find out the context for it. It was fun though, and I like the result. I hope you all aren't tired of seeing her yet, because there'll be more sketches and doodles in the future!

Patron's Choice - Poll

Hi folks! We have a really excellent menagerie of ideas today, and I'm really psyched to see what comes out on top! 

I'm going to start doing something new for this, too. This month, a couple of people asked for sequels to existing pictures, and I think that's just too cool. So now, when folks do suggest sequels to existing works, I'm going to put links to their previous installments in the poll choice.

I feel like this opens up a lot of options... Patron's Choice could potentially ...

PSD / CSP - Candy Crush

Here are the working files for this piece. Thanks everyone who came out and helped keep me going! :D

Candy Crush

Tafyrae has noticed that we're playing something besides WoW at the moment, and is encouraging us to correct that behavior.

PSD/CSP - #toweringtourist

Aaaand here's the working files for this one! Also included is the reference I used for the background and tower

#toweringtourist

Hey folks!

So there were no In-Progress images for this one, since I wanted to do a special birthday surprise for my friend MeisterLi. :D His character Shorty has always been a favorite of mine, and recently she's been doing some travels, visiting some of the more prominent locations around the world. Today she's visiting the leaning tower of Pisa, and maybe making it lean a little bit further. >_> 

Hope everyone is having a great weekend! $10+ Patrons, keep an eye out for the...

Patron's Choice - Curvyclysm 3 (Final)

 Tafyrae's candy-centric diet seems to be having some dramatic effects on her figure. And for some reason, these effects seem to be amplified as soon as she goes to get measured.

Simple sketch this month because of time/also because I did a comic instead of a single image

Question For You All

Hi folks!

So in April it'll have been a few years since I started this whole thing on Patreon, and I was wondering what you all thought. Are there new rewards or ideas you'd like to see put into motion? Do you feel like one of the reward tiers needs some love? Let's start up a discussion and make this the best we possibly can!

Patron's Choice - Poll

We have a few great ideas today, and a couple of them even have Tafyrae in them! (That's so rare and kind of welcome to see!) I know this is all a bit behind this month, so I'm thinking I'll be closing the poll Monday Night so I can go ahead and get started on this.

Occupational Hazard

Apparently, candy only makes Tafyrae grow when she's wearing a certain cursed dress. The rest of the time, all of that sugar gets applied elsewhere. ^_^;

1,000,000 Pageviews!

Hey folks!

So I just put up a small screencap celebrating 1,000,000 pageviews on dA, but the big thing is I want to let you all know that this Saturday, March 10th, I'm planning on doing a big celebration stream, for as long as I can stand to! Please feel free to stop by and tune in if you feel like it! :D

Patron's Choice - 42'

And here we are! This was some pretty extreme PoV, and something I really should practice more of. I hope you guys enjoy it!

Vault - Tafyrae Dump 3

Rough weekend, so here's some sketches of everybody's favorite giant space goat.

Vault - Treats and Seats

Cee got Tea some chocolates for Hearts and Hooves day. Of course they're just normal candy. No growth serum at all. ^_^;

Animation! (Flat Colors)

I'm really considering doing some shading, but I'm not sure if that'll make it look better or worse. I'll probably leave it here for now, since this is really the effect I was looking for. 

I hope you all like this! I'm going to start using it in my streams as an alert image. Picarto did some kind of integration with this 'Streamlab' webapp, and there's some pretty neat things in there, so look for it the next time I do a stream. ^_^

Patron's Choice - Poll

Hi folks! We have a bunch of really fun ideas this month! We have all sorts of expansion and growth across the board, as well as one wildcard idea that will determine her size based on the number of votes it gets! They're all really fun, and I'm looking forward to getting started on one. I'll probably run the poll until next weekend, so there's a good five days to get your votes in!

Vault - Comfort

Hey folks - apologies for the lack of activity, but things are rough right now. I'm working through things, and I'll get moving here again as soon as I can. 

Tonight I just wanted to take an hour after work to draw some ponies to try and reignite things.
