Not terribly the most exciting one but hey, can't win em all. Anyway even if it's not the best posing I rather like this style of inking and shading. Again it's loose but energetically so, and gets across information successfully without costing an arm and a leg of time. That even if I'd been kinda down and out all week, I can still make time to work on something like this as extra.

I think I mentioned this to Gunwild a short time ago, I'm all for cheesecake as much as anyone but I feel like I don't wanna go out of Cassiopeia's way to look sexy. Here we have an instance where the beefcake wants nothing more than be desired, and now Peia even dressed up as she is realized a long while ago that the sooner this is over the better. There's nothing really attractive about not having fun, and I didn't wanna go too far out of my way just so I can show what Cassiopeia is wearing!

The picture of Maddy should still be around on the twitter
Maddy had the most work to do for any of the characters for this next chapter, which takes place just over a fancy casino. So we had some fun getting to come up with getups for each of the characters in Maddy's crew. Gunwild and I know each of them quite well, though their eccentricities haven't had the space to shine yet. But g...

This is proving rather popular for maybe a few obvious reason! It's certainly one that would be tricky to cosplay. Admittedly, if we thought of Cassiopeia as a slightly different character, this would've been a contender for her "standard" look. But for now I think it's just gonna be for this one storyline which calls for something slightly "classier" and yet infinitely more ridiculous in that Cassiopeia way.
It's sorta a combo of Stella Star and other retro sci fi vixens with the t...

And make sure you get more posts at a regular rate.
A very rough but energetic sketch of my Destiny Hunter. Flow and stuff is pretty darn important, everyone knows that. But sometimes actual anatomy can get in the way of illustrative flowing lines. There's a lot of ways to make it really awesome and balancing style and believably human shapes is the key to success.

To all my patreons, you're gonna be charged this coming midnight for your patronage. Thank you for your support! I'm just warning you ahead of time, if you'd like to cancel, now's your last chance before you're charged for the next month. Alternatively, if you'd like to subscribe, well I'll be really happy about that!
I know it's been a bit of a thin month in terms of art updates, though the art streams ...

It seemed a sketch commissioner really liked that one doodle I did a long while back and liked it as much as I did. So we went ahead and made it into a slightly longer scene. I rather like the result! The full resolution file, not to mention uncensored, should be in the drop box. I'm not entirely sure what patreon's adult content rules are anymore, though I think if it's hosted elsewhere it's not much of a problem.

Look, I gotta be frank. I like drawing mecha girls and /co/lette so the two often go together. This particular body setup appears a few times in some sketches and is for all intensive purposes pretty darn impractical and energy inefficient. While satellite limbs could be used in interesting battle or even daily applications, it can be terrible cumbersome and even dangerous to the pilot.
A solid philosophy in design is to reduce extraneous parts and functions, focus on the key applications to be...

Guys, I should really thank you all more often. You guys make a normal-ish life somewhat more possible. Like today, I just bought myself a proper air filter! Sure it would've been better a month ago before allergy season but it'll be nice to have. Some airflow down here will probably help me feel less like a Sims Art Troll.

In celebration of Mad Max coming out, I remember very fondly some of my Fallout inspired fan comic and universe. I think there's still some potential in it but I never quite found the time or the story I wanted to do in it. Here's an instance where I have some characters I really like hanging out, but the narrative impetus for why we'd want to read about them wasn't quite there yet.
But the aesthetic comes very naturally to me, the rust and wasteland stuff isn't what you find in a lot of my dra...

It's the middle of the month so time for another much too late update to the Patreon link! I apologize there isn't that much new in the high res box since last time, but a couple new PSDs and some mature pinups here and there. I hope you enjoy!

It might be surprising to people, how often I can sit at a drawing and just FORGET how I successfully did a drawing last time. I never quite commit any one technique to muscle memory. The closest I came to it was with doing Cassiopeia Pages after a point it gained a degree of consistency. But while I've been under the weather, I feel like I've completely forgotten how to do it.
Sometimes however, this leads to unexpected improvements. Much like evolutionary mutation, each iteration introduces a...

I know I promised to post this much earlier. I don't think I'll clean up either drawing but I'm rather pleased with the color of the skin tones here. It was quick to do and appears pretty vibrant. But I can improve on that in the future.

Before I was out doing Question Duck or even cute comics for /co/, I had a bit of a time doing some rather creepy stuff. I never really went out full "horror" comic but I tried to have creature design that was unsettling while being clearly fantastical. For Pretty Julie, I knew I wanted to draw from that well of horror stuff and while lore building I've been taken with the idea of "Old Ones" and all that jazz. But I don't think I wanted to express it in the more obvious designs of like... victor...

Patreon charges you again at the end of the day! If you'd like to cancel before you get charged again, now's the time to do it! However, if you wanna jump aboard and share some support my way, feel free to join!
I’m rather late with a lot of thank yous I should’ve sent out to new patrons. I know I promised myself to thank each new patreon but it’s been quite a packed month. I hope to see you all in the new one.

Vanaa of the Renaissance! Ya know, after starting with these gloobs I think I realize just how easy it is to get trapped into making variant collectible toys. And ya know, I'm not complaining! I'm enjoying it and the basic form is simple enough that it can be adjusted to a lot of different portraits and caricatures.

Honestly I should consider working in a "rougher" style. I think I could put out full pages of drawings like that cass one in relatively short order.

I was really happy with the result of this one. Again, it's Tara and Lauren for Aidenke, so I've gotten fairly familiar with the characters and their ventures. High res available in the high res box.

Sometimes I really think I could use an assistant. If anything, at least someone reminding me I shouldn't be awake at these hours! Speaking of, next post will be the link to the April dropbox.
Sorry the change over has been delayed. For the record, the box is always still open with the last link I set. The old links will only stop working once I make a new link, which is usually followed by the link post right away.

I've been really frustrated for a number of reasons this past week, I hope it doesn't feel like I'd been passing it off to you guys. On the other hand though, I'm pretty happy with some recent style experiments. I'll see what we this can do for me in the future.

more style experiments with exaggerated figures and abs. I know people get in trouble for things like getting the wrong skin tone or even facial features for the same character between drawings. I get the feeling I'll end up drawing abs and hips wrong most of the time.

There have been a bunch of little delays with getting back to people and my head's been all over the place. Truth be told, this PROBABLY isn't a good place to be, Head wise. Still, the art's good if only a bit slower. But there's just a lot of stuff that needs doing so I'll try and get it all done.
Anyway, have a big nose on this study/sketch.
