Next two pencils! P64 final goes up tomorrow, and I'm also aiming to get November's Secret Gallery art up tomorrow. As I mentioned, rewards would run a couple days late this month - sketch tier month + holiday + getting back on the weekly page schedule means I have lots to get done. XD

2019-11-20 02:35:17 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! I've been a bit quiet this month. It's been a couple weeks since I finished moving into the new place, but one of the curses of working from home is that, when you move, you're moving both your home and your work space at the same time.
