September Q&A - leave your questions here!
Hey!
Hope you're well! I can't believe it's already September, I started this Patreon back in February and it's already been 8 months, that's really wild to me. You've all changed I and my family's lives and I couldn't be happier working with you all rather than constant clients! It's been such a great time to try and e...

Hey!
Well, I worked these up last night, nothing too crazy, just some sketches I put together after working a bit. The PSD attached to this post has all the layer intact so that you can look through and see how I did each step of the process from line to final pencil render.
Here's the gen...

Hey!
Hope you're all well! Here's the next in the Evangelion series - Asuka Langley! I've been waiting for this one, Asuka is definitely my favorite character of the series - this illustration is going to take place in the final battle location from End of Evangelion.
Anyway, looking forward to working this ...

Hey!
Hope you're well! Thank you for your patience with this! I've recorded over 4 hours of the process since the last video, I'll have part 2 up tomorrow, but in the meantime here's the current work in progress. I'm in the final stretch with the painting, all the hard stuff is done(drawing, wash, underpainting), now al...

Hey!
So, as we move forward doing tutorial type work and all that, I wanted to show my approach of how I go about my Magic the Gathering style illustrations. This here was just a test to see how I may want to go about sharing the process in a video but I think it'll be fun to walk you all through how I use this approach...

Hey!
Here's the latest progress I've made on the Mega Man Legends piece. Since the last update I completed all the final lines for the background and the characters/ships. After that I took it into Photoshop and rendered a lot of the values using soft light, overlay and multiply layers using textured brushes to create a...

Hey!
I've been working this up the past day, just trying to finalize the lines and get all the elements in place before I render anything up. This was sort of a spur of the moment type illustration, I didn't have any real idea I was going to do this a couple days ago so I'm doing my best to try and speed through it all ...

Hey!
So, I wanted to try and put together a composition for a Mega Man Legends illustration. I'm just about done replaying the first game on my vita and thought it might be fun to do a homage to the game on here. I'd likely do something in the style of a type of pencil/color pencil/paint hybrid like the previous Zero pi...

Hey!
Here's a concept for what I think Zero could look like in Mega Man Legends - went for a straight pencil style with colors over top, nothin too crazy, but I like the look of it. I also included a PSD with all layers intact so you could look through the file and see how I went about doing each part. To get the fuzzy ...

Please feel free to ask whatever questions you like for this month's Q&A - questions about art, my life, how deep and dark porn can get, etc. - I've been less active the last couple days because I got some of that good mouth surgery.

Things are starting to really move now, I've mostly finished Rei and now I'm mostly focused on Unit 00. Shouldn't be too much longer now before it's all completed.

So, today I wanted to share the current progress on the Rei Ayanami piece - I spent a good amount of time drawing out Rei/sketching out Unit 00, I'm liking the way the textures/color on Rei's suit and the colors in general are coming along.

Hey!
Hope you're well! Here are a few character concepts I worked up today and yesterday. I wanted to get back to the original style I intended for StarVeil so I moved back to Photoshop for these and used a more charcoal-like brush for the inking to get that older feel(hopefully).
