With almost all tiers having a prize now, the winners of last month's raffles are:
Intermediate Tier: Chibi button

Advanced Tier: Color Chibi or Lineart Bust

Trying out something slightly different here! I've always loved the DA:I tarot cards, so as I'd be doing two pieces this month (ahaha whydidIdothattomyself) I thought this would be a good style to have them both in!
This was really fun to draw and I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. What do you think?

As this month's pledges have begun to be processed, quite a few have come back as "declined". This makes me think of a problem on Patreon's end, but before I investigate, if you've noticed your pledge has been declined, would you please check your card for me and make sure it hasn't expired? (Also as you might have oth...

My first WoW-inspired piece! This was really fun to paint, even if I went about it in the most complex, convoluted way possible by deciding to make it a flat color piece then changing my mind halfway through and then changing my mind again two thirds of the way in.
I also watched a lot of WoW lore videos while painting this. I...

A portrait reward this time. I went for a more complex head angle for this one, since I wanted to prove something to myself and to others. And to that end, I will be publishing the drawing process video of this piece soon; please look forward to a painful narrated account of the shoddy artist I am behind the scenes!

I mean, not really. But really, a three way tie?! You're actually making me have to like... decide things! @_@
So with 38 votes at the end of last month's poll, WoW, Nier and FFXV ended up tied in first place. In the spirit of fairness and indecision, I resolved to do the following:
