Account now Monthly + Reward Changes

Hello faithful Patrons!

I have finally switched this account to monthly, which will allow me to upload in-progress works, legacy art and commissions while also developingthe Birrin book.

If a month goes by with no content at all, I will simply refund Patrons their contribution for that time period.

I tweaked the re...

...or the more traditional pose.

Klingon Progress

Work continues...

Starfleet

Started adding in a Starfleet Officer buddy/scale reference.

Klingon!

A WIP of a Klingon design exploration I am having fun with.

Swamp Hunter

A creature from the floating forrests. Its long limbs can search for food in the lake mud while the body floats among surface vegetation, wary for predators.

Floatplane Concepts

Pre-production art for the book; the lead character uses a floatplane to trade. Top has a parasol wing, the lower line art version is the current leading design.

Giants (And Patreon Changes)

[An announcement regarding this Patreon. As the book has begun, and pre-production art is being produced, I will be switching Patreon to monthly starting June. More info in a follow up post]

The giants of Chriirah are powerful omnivorous beings possessing a sophisticated intelligence. The smaller birrin with their linguistic a...

There were giants

Working on some character and creature designs to get warmed up for the book!

Book Update

Hey folks!

Not charging or switching to monthly until I have something to show, but thought I would let ya'll know what I am up to.

1. Researching real life history on themes the birrin book is exploring.

2. Written several treatments of narratives for the book.

I have a solid idea going foward. Once I comple...

Birrin Book and Patreon

I have decided to develop the first book set on the Birrin world.

This poses an interesting question; how should Patreon feature into this development? I am open to your feedback, but the following options come to mind:

1: Nothing is changed, but my Patreon essentially goes dormant while the book is created. Artworks dev...

Complete!

 “A birrin pilot and her ground operator scramble to launch a Loyal Sky strike aircraft in defense of a forward Reclamation base being hammered by insurgent mortars and drones.”

Background

The Kiln, once a semi-habitable region of intense heat and storms on Chriirah, was rendered a baked and heavily ero...

Loadout

Help me pick the warload y'all!

Almost

Not far to go now...

Focusing next on the sky and correcting the lighting in the dark wheel-wells and landing gear design

Kiln Dust

Spinning up...

Mirror

...and flipped because I still quite like it ;)

Progress

Not too much to do now. With the design of the plane almost complete I can duplicate and modify it for the second plane.

Next I will add dust kicked up from the props, the second prop ring will be depicted spinning up.

CSV progress

Working on the Crew Service Vehicle

Got a seriesof air conditioners and power generators on its flatbed. Might ultimately give it a military color scheme.

Choices

I have my own views... but which basic composition do you folk respond to most?

WIP Update

Adding details, and spending a little time on the background.
