Behold, another clump o' sketches drawn in in Clip Studio Paint, based on art requests from the big-spending tier of $20 Patrons. Sets #2 and #3 feature plenty of "damsel in distress" content based on Patron suggestions; normally, I would've moved this material to the usual "DiD Wednesday" slot (for the $5+ tiers), but though...

The three sketch sets above are based on art requests from last month and the first few days of 2020. Not my best, TBH, but I've been sick like unto a dog most of the g-d week, so these are the best I could do whilst under the weather.

December was a booming month for new Patrons joining up—why, the Patreon abruptly surged over the $1000 per month mark, which was unexpected and srsly gratifying!—so I thought I'd doublecheck and see if anyone who's just joined up wanted to get in some last-minute art requests as I knock out a final few 2019 Clip Studio P...
