Quick update about fanart!

Heyoooooooo ya'll! Figured it was a good idea to do an update about this since I know a few of ya joined my patreon for my AUs and fanart stuff.

To keep it quick and clean: my AUs, headcanons, and fanart projects will be in an indefinite hiatus. I am no longer burnt out BUT I'm afraid my interest in working on fanprojects is still missing. I apologize for those of yo...

F&F: Dalis design choices

Working on the design for Evangeline's little brother! His name is Dalis (the names in the poll are potential nicknames depending on which wins) but I'm having trouble deciding his final look. Evangeline herself is in the background for comparison. Of the three designs, which do you like more? :)...

F&F: Mal Monster Form 2024 concept

Some concept art for Mal from my Feathers and Flowers headworld! :)

I actually very much liked the concept I had for her previously. In fact, this only started as me beginning to finish that character page for her, but then I got curious and toyed with how she looked if I made her less human and pushed the monster aspect of her more.

With the way my development of the ...

BGR: Greta rough concept 1

Thank you all for voting and helping me choose Greta's basic color scheme! And with that, she's ready to move on to the next stage of concept art with Gaurou: fullbody! owo I typically don't go that into depth for some of my designs, but for main characters I find it helps me get a good idea of their base look if I start with their head then work my way down.

At any rate: Billy Goat's Ruf...

Bill Goat's Ruff: Greta design choice

----

So I'm in the midst of developing the next story on the line. An original one this time, featuring a dark and loose retelling of Three Billy Goat's Gruff: I'm calling...

F&F: Mal character sheet 1

I was gonna wait until the other half of this sheet was finished but I decided to just post what I currently have! Mal in her human form gloooooooooory :)

In unrelated news, I'm not sure why but I've been feeling exhausted the past few days; I may have came down with a bug :/ I only bring it up because it's a little hard to focus, so there isn't much substantial info here but I'll ...

F&F: Dalis concept sketches

so Evangeline has a lil brother! Working on his design before I take him and give him a proper character sheet.

The overall plan is to give the main cast character sheets so I have refs to use when I start drawing more story-based stuff. It'll be slowgoing but I'm really enjoying myself :)

F&F: Mal rough test

Rough out of the updated character sheet for Mal! Decided to work with two since her human and SemiHuman forms are relatively similar. The monster form will get its own sheet a lil later owo

New Patreon Baner (WIP)

A freebee WIP since it's for my branding, but here's more work on some Promo Art I'm doing!

So for anyone curious, I'm essentially taking my art as my job seriously; not that I didn't before, but now I've taken steps to treating it as a real job instead of just... a hobby that I can support myself on, if that makes sense? I'll talk it more in depth later. Anyway yeah, being ...

Promo Art showcase

We interrupt this program to bring you a new piece of promo art! :)

Now, my commissions actually ARE opening soon (Saturday, in fact!) BUT that's not actually why I wanted to post it here. It's largely cuz I just wanted to show ya'll the artwork itself now that it's done. :)

I actually started yammering abo...

Melon's Adventure: Cover Art

The cover illustration for the book is NOW DONE!! With the completion of this bad boy (which is also the art for the poster prints), I am officially done with the art portion of my store's themed launch. All I have to do now is touch up the written portions, and... I'm done???

We're in the final stretch, ya'll; the keychains have already been ordered and I've gotten the estimates for the ...

Melon's Adventure: Keychain set preview

More progress made on the themed launch of my online store! With the help of the discord community, I managed to select a handful of art and did some touchups on them to be created into acrylic charm keychains! Most of this art ya'll have already seen, although there's one that's brand spankin' new :>

My friend Kyrit generously offered to sponsor there creation, and with ...

Melon's Adventure: Cover Page (wip)

Buckled down to do some work on the Melon's Adventure storybook, including some mockups of how the book pages may look when printed out!

I'm pretty proud of the progress I have thus far, and the book roughly about 60-70% finished. All I really need to do now is paint the cover, edit the writing to clean it up a bit, and update some of the older paintings to make it a lil more consistent t...

Character Creator Base: Mini Maned Monster

On a whim I decided to try my hand at one of those "character creator" bases I see other artists doing. This one is based on the species my sona (Ash) is: the species doesn't necessarily have an official name, but I've just been calling them "Maned Monsters", or "MnMs" for fun.

The chibified version of them (as seen here) was designed to represent my supporters, especially for when I wann...

Melon's Adventure: Meet The Pack!

Meet Melon's pack! As the story of Melon's Adventure progresses, we will eventually see some, if not all, of these yoshi buddies, so what better way to introduce them than to show off their looks? :)

In order of appearance (in the full lineup image), we have:

Bread: A very sweet yoshi with a love for bread. Ironically, yoshis don't really cook... or bake...

Melon's Adventure: Stickers WIP

YEAHHHHHHHHH BOI! So I'm putting my money where my mouth is and workin on my official store launch. With the completion of the first arc of Melon's Adventure, I figured it would be a good candidate to start things off since I have all of the images completed; all I need to do now is make some stickers and a cover page for the art book :>

This is just a quick sneak peek of some o...

Melon's Adventure: AMBUSH!! (p10)

Melon didn't stand a chance.

One moment he's staring the end of their journey over the horizon, and the next he's sent plummeting into the awaiting maw of the trench he stood over by a hearty smack of a claw.

He yelps as he tumbles, twisting in the air for a heartstopping moment before his back meets a crag. Mario's cries are muted by rushing wind as he slips ag...

BGR: Gaurou rough concept 1

Doin' a little work on that fairytale retelling idea I had! This is the basic concept for one of the main characters of the story, Gaurou. :) More on her soon!
