Pogo's March letters have been sent out to all processed patrons, so you should be getting them soon!  Email letters have also been sent for those of you who get them digitally, so if you didn't receive it, let me know.  March's $10.01 drawing also went up in the offsite gallery earlier today, so if you were a March $10.01+ patron and didn't see it, check your private messages.

Pogo talks some more about the names of people in the underground.  ffs Pogo, I'm not changing...

Chapter 3, Pages 60-61 Spread

Pages 60 to 67 are all spreads, some more "spready" than others, but they're all still intended to be readable as single pages.  I'm REALLY excited about 62-63 and 64-65.....

DOTU Character Designs - for real this time (line art)

I know they aren't as good as the April Fools version of their designs, but here's the clean lineart of the character pinups I started a couple months ago.  Most of them are detailed from the $10 sketches I did for December, except I redid Pogo's entirely.  I'll post them as a lineup and individually for you $2+ folks when they're inked and colored, so they're big enough that you can actually see them.  I also plan to include some of their less spoilery bio info.

Custom Card Portrait for Erik!

I got the okay to share it, so here's the newest custom DOTU card portrait!

Man, this was so much fun.  I'm such a sucker for anything North Sphere, and when a patron is SO North Sphere, it's all the better.  I also got really excited to do a functional circuit board jacket since the North Sphere is all about their special suit jackets.  (If we don't learn about them in DOTU, we'll learn about them in Merritt's story.)  And it seems like I'm zooming out more and more in...

DOTU Battle Illustration - Art + Detail + New Layout

Here's the finished illustration.  I did it for the new page layout on Patreon since it needed a wide header.  You can check it out here: http://www.patreon.com/bob_artist

I also put up full WIP shots in a separate post for patrons only.  If anyone wants this as a wallpaper, let me know.  I could probably make a pack.

DOTU Battle Illustration - Start to Finish WIP Shots

DOTU Illustration WIPs

Have some wips!  Thumbnails vs clean line art for two illustrations I'm working on.  I'd like to use the top one (without the text) on the landing page of the website since the current image is like 5 years old, and I'll probably do prints with and without the text.  Second image, I want to use for FB/Tumblr/Patreon/Tapastic headers.  Patreon's gonna force me to change to the new layout on 3/15, so that's my deadline for the second image.

Also, we currently have over $7...

Livestreaming now!

Well, in about 1 minute.  I'm working on the $10.01 drawing.  I'll stream for about 2 hours (until ~7pm CT).  There will be a 5 minute break around 6pm for ferret meds.  I'll probably mostly be working quietly (sorry, still no music), but I got the microphone working again, so I'll talk here and there, and I'm inviting y'all to ask questions if you want, and I'll answer.

Anyone is welcome to watch the livestream, but this time I'm only announcing it on Patreon since I'm...
