Full Resolution Pics #154

Hi again, my dear friends!!

I'm sorry for always repeating myself with all of you, but...really thank you for being here with me. 

I'm very surprised I have pictures to share this time, I've been terribly busy again and it hasn't been enjoyable, I feel exhausted. I've been helping my local convention, and for more that this year I'm delegating more work to other people, I'm still having a big responsibility for the convention. I personally think I'm doing it pretty good, my d...

Hello everyone!! 

Thank you for keep being part of this clubhouse, and especially for all your patience.
Many have been already withdrawing their pledge precisely for my lack of activity here and with rewards and it is completely understandable, I'm being incredibly slow with everything, especially with Patreon rewards. 

This month I kept being very busy with Confuror, my local furry convention I'm helping, despite I've been trying to balance it with my work and my l...

Full Resolution Pics #152 and many WIPs

Many of you have notices how slow is my activity on social media lately. Of course it is and I can't help it. 

First the most obvious reason, how slow I'm drawing lately, I need to draw one hour, take a break of many minutes (sometimes that break lasts even hours), and then go back, and I get to have a little pain at the end of the day even that way, no matter what I do that pain is going to get back from time to time. But at least is not unbearable like before, now I can reall...

Since I'm drawing in a very slow pace and I get to do very few drawings a month, I'm combining Full Resolution and WIPs for now, so this time I'm sharing you two full pictures that you can already see on my galleries, and 4 sketches I drew randomly during the month. 

The two full pictures are the one for Rognodio, the new Dingoroo's character. And the other one is the Patreon reward for Flurrabell, the baseball one, which I wrote an extensive description on galleries: 2023-09-01 21:32:32 +0000 UTC View Post

Full Resolution Pics #150

150 times I've shared with all of you Full Resolution versions of my drawings, holy these have been so many, considering that I aproximately share 2 of these per month (there have been some months in the past that I haven't shared a single one, or some only 1), so that's an average of 20-24 of these per year, and I've had this Patreon account for a little more of 7 years. Thanks again for so many years of support and making this dream come true, and supporting me even on my bad times, I've tr...

WIPs #33

NOTE: Don't share the second picture (the stickers one) outside here, it's for your eyes only. Further in this post I explain why.

These months I was not working, I was looking more and more paintings, I was even visiting art museums, and I was wanting so badly to practice some painting. That's why when I retook my drawing skills with right hand, I was working on paintig-like illustrations, and I was also wanting to practice some illumination.
I was too concerned ab...

Full Resolution Pics #149

This time for the Full resolution files, I'm attaching a .RAR file also full with WIPs of the pictures I'm sharing with you this time.
So this publication is a combo between WIPs and Full Resolution versions.

I'm sorry for taking longer than usual to share with you this post, usually I should be sharing this on the days 1st and 15th of the month.

Full Resolution Pics #148 / Getting Better

Sooooo..... I'm back!!! Kind of!! Well, I've never left, but there are great news and for that reason I'm sharing these news to all my Patreons and not only for those who wants to get Full Resolution Pics. (Despite I'm also posting part of this post on my public journals, but here I am also inclduing messages for all of you)

As you may see, I'm drawing again with my right hand, I'm not at 100% yet, my arm/wrist keeps hurting a little bit from time to time, but not as intense as before, ...

New Patreon Month. Thanks!

Thanks to all of you, for real. I was sharing some words to the Clubhouse Telegram group but I decided I should give you proper thanks on a message.

I know it's not personal and it's a general message I'm posting for all Patreons, but this is something I really want to tell to each one of you like if I was writing you, one by one, in personal message.

Some of these words may sound very repetitive for you, since I'm always write them at the end of every post here on Patreon, and al...

Update of my Health Problem

Thank you for all of you who have been asking me about what was going on with my arm problem, I’m very sure that everyone agrees that it feels so good when you feel you’re not forgotten and people cares for you.

I started with something positive for this journal, but the negative part has been how my mood has been, this has been very tough and difficult for me. I needed to be very honest with a friend when he asked me “but are you emotionally alright or how are you dealing with th...

Hi, my Clubhouse friends!

First of all, I'm sorry that I have not so much to share this second half of the month, but I really don't want to leave you without updates on Patreon, and I haven't done too much artistically. This week I was practicing a little bit of painting with my left hand. One of the ones I'm sharing here was a copy of a painting of an artist who I admire (and who I'm also supporting here on Patreon) that is "Animal Shapes"

Full Resolution Pics #146

Hi, friends! :D

I don't want to leave Patreon unattended, especially when your support is helping me to survive these times. My recovery is taking longer than I expected it was going to be, I thought at first that I just needed a couple of weeks until I could draw again, now it has been more than a month and a half, and I still can't draw with my right hand. 

I've read online that this problem usually takes around 3 months of resting to recover, and an artist friend who got t...

Updates about wrist + WEDDING!!

This week has been crazy, full with important decisions, bad, good and weird news. It has been definitely an interesting week and for sure next one will be even more.

Let's start with everything about my wrist.

News about my wrist.

Sometimes I assume that everyone who are here in Patreon read my updates and journals, I shouldn't. I also understand that, despite I'm also support other artists here on Patreon, I don't always read their new posts. And I got many messages from...

Hello again, my friends!!

Thank you very much for all your support, your understanding, your patience and your good wishes. I’m doing pretty good about taking rest of my wrist, for more I’ve been wanting to draw *cries* but this journal is not about it, I will be updating about my situation when I get news and improvements about my wrist issue.

Please Read: Important Patreon Changes / Wrist Problems

As many of you already know, I’ve been unable to draw now for 3 weeks due a wrist pain. I’m going to avoid sounding any dramatic because that’s not on me, but I don’t want to lie, it has been affecting me mentally, it has been due Roni (my boyfriend) and my local friends that I’ve kept my sanity and I’m truly grateful.

I can’t be more grateful with all of you, because your support also has helped me afford to not work for several weeks in order to alleviate my wrist issue....

Hello my dear friends!!

I really appreciate the cheers and support lately. I'm a little worried about my situation with my wrist but I can tell that it definitely has improved, at the beginning it was feeling horrible to the point I was very scared about what could it happen next, but after a week of resting it and barely using it, I can feel it is getting better. Yesterday I tried to use it again for properly draw again, but the pain started again, so it seems I need to rest it more. ...

My wrist hursts. I need to pause working temporarily.

You know I never get excuses to stop working, I'm all the opposite, I make excuses to keep working because I'm such a workaholic, even when I'm sick suddenly Roni sees me working and he needs to stop me to rest.

On my whim of wanting to advance work as quickly as possible, I've been with the commitment of clearing up my queue, I did what I've heard it happens to many artists, that their wrist starts hurting.

Yesterday my wrist was hurting a little bit, nothin...

Hello, my dear friends of the Clubhouse!!

Yesterday I was supposed to share this post with you and I forgot!
But well, here it is! New 5 pictures on their respective full ultra 4K high definition resolution for you :D You can download them on the attached .rar file.

Let me know if for any of you the .rar compression doesn't work and you would prefer me to share these files like separate pictures.

At the end of this month I planned to make a very short trip to Mexico City,...

How do you do fellow kids?

Now it's Paco from the present speaking to you!
Now that I'm back from that crazy trip, I have bunch of time to actual work on all the eternal neverending queue that hopefully I will work sooner. Now I'm giving a lot of priority to finish those Patreon rewards so I'm finally able to take the new ones I've been owing you for months.

This time I'm sharing you many sketches I was doing at NordicFuzzCon, some collab drawings that I got to do with amazing ...

My NordicFuzzCon 2023 Experience

NordicFuzzCon 2020 was over and I remember thinking “This is the best furry convention in the world!” and my plans for coming back again next year for 3rd time were no questionable. But of course we could never predicted the situation of the upcoming years in the world. 2021 and 2022 physical editions were postponed. After 3 years of waiting I could go back to Sweden to enjoy this amazing event. But I ended up having so many inconveniences during my trip that changed many of my original p...

Is Paco from the past writing this again?
A: YES!!

Hopefully, if everything is going according the plan, I'm back home! But probably I'm so tired and very jetlagged that I won't have the energies to make such journal, but I don't want to let you down, and I'm sure the Paco from the past is doing a better job than the Paco from the present at writing this post instead. So let him do it!

Problem is that, Paco from the past has no idea how well the Prague and the NordicFuzzCon tri...

WIPs and Sketches #31

Hello!!! Greetings from Paco from the past!
I'm writting this post just after I finished writting the previous post. But you know that I don't want to spam you very often with Patreon e-mails. In theory you should enjoy receiving them since you're paying real money to get them, btw thank you so much for your support!. But it is more for "marketing" since I know I can't be posting daily and if I post many days in a row then I would leave Patreon with no posts at all for so many days. It's t...

Full Resolution Pics #142

I'm realizing I'm one of the very few artists on Patreon who makes a whole journal each time I'm sharing with all of you my Full Resolution Pictures. I guess because I'm try not to share anything about my personal life nor even my feelings publicly, and I only ended up doing it with my friends and at the Clubhouse. This space is also part of the Clubhouse and it is like a quick update of what is happening with me, my grumbles, my situations, what causes my anxiety, and of course what makes me...

WIPs and Sketches #30

I'm realizing I never shared with all of you the process of the gouaches painting of the bunny riding bike. Here it is! I should start doing time-lapse videos like the last watercolor I did, I think it was very interesting to watch for many

Virtual Furry Museum and ANW Award

There have been times that I feel very down, I guess it's normal on people nowadays, it's a thing on our times. When I feel very stressed and that I'm worthless, and see that others are showing similar emotions on social networks, and some people tell them they are overreacting, being dramatic, or trying to show some attention to others... but I'm sure all of us tend to feel like that from time to time, just we do not externalize it to the world. I never do it! That's why people may think I'm...

Full Resolution Pics #141

Welcome to February, and thank you once again for one more month of support!

I'm advancing little by little with those Patreon rewards, believe it or not, but of course it's very a Paco Panda thing to take a lot on every single piece because I really want to deliver something really cool on each one, what I will always avoid at working on art is taking it like "Oh I need to produce this, let's do it to finish it as soon as possible!", despite I really want to clear my queue... I don't ...

WIPs and Sketches #29

More than a week ago that I'm back home from my trip to Anthro Northwest and Further Confusion.
At ANW I got to work a really lot, as much that people for sure knew where to find me at the convention, all time sitting on the art jam area, keep working on many drawings I had to do. "Hey, why don't you stop for a minute and have fun! You're at a convention! BTW I would love a commission by you, do you still have spots?"

It was a nice convention, tho! The panels and my participation we...

Sketchbook #18 Full

This one took me a while to fill because I had been sketching mainly in other places, in separate sheets or in my tablet. Now I’m starting a new one and hopefully I will take it more with me and sketch more and more, not only with color that for more cool it looks, I also need to practice poses, expressions and emotions with lines instead only with colors and shading.

I’m also sharing this video on my social networks, but the exclusive here on Patreon is this brief description....

Second sharing of Full Resolution Pics of 2023

And despite I've been to USA from the beginning to this year till today, my galleries have been kind of productive, I've been sharing lot of art lately that I had ready since last year, on 2022.

Actually.... I'm again talking from the past, you people from the future! I'm writting this on January 1st. Hopefully by now when this post is shared I already attended ANW and I'm right now at Further Confusion in San Jose, Califor...
