I was feeling a little nervous when I started this, unsure of what underwater infrastructure might look like, but as I kept drawing, I figured things out little by little!

FINALLY, got these done!
I think I handled the balance of detail a lot better than in my first attempt :P
OKAY, last week didn't go so well. I started drawing ocean stuff, realized I needed more practice drawing ocean stuff, and basically didn't do anything else for the rest of the week :P
SO, this week, I'm gonna give ocean stuff another try, now that I've practiced a bit more.
Also, I jus...
OKAY, I think I have a better idea of how to do ocean environments now. I tried to match the level of detail in my other environments, to help the scene feel full without having to worry about tons and tons of objects/details.

Sorry for the delay on stuff this week!
Yesterday, instead of drawing, I went and got a bunch of things done that I've been putting off for a while, which will REALLY help me stay focused.
I got started on the environment concepts today, but they're taking longer than normal to do, lik...

All caught up with the swamp stuff now!
Characters
- Postal worker dragonfly
- Hillbilly opossum
Enemies
- Alligator bot
- Mosquito bot
- Leech bot
- Swamp Thing bot
Now, it looks like I'm gonna be working on ocean-themed stuff this week, so I'll at least co...
Sorry guys! Last week, things kinda fell apart toward the end, and I didn't post all the types of drawings I meant to.
So today, I'm gonna try to draw at least two more swamp characters, and 3-4 swamp enemies.
Once those are done, I'll begin work on drawings for a new environment! Either ...
Just in case I don't finish a few more, here's at least one character concept.
I took the snapping turtle from one of my original animal sets, and improved his design.
I imagine him as a territorial land owner, kinda like Fuzzy Lumpkins from The Powerpuff Girls, but smarter and more intimi...
Got kind of a late start on these today, but they're done now!
I made sure to include a few actual buildings/houses this time!
WITHIN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS I'd like to make and follow a consistent plan regarding
- What rewards I offer here on Patreon
- Which tiers get which rewards
I'm sure several of you members and patrons have noticed, I've been kinda loosey-goosey about what I post, and who I make it available ...
Off to a good start with the swamp!
Let me detail my process a little bit:
1. Gather reference images, photos of real swamps, as well as illustrations, concept art, and screenshots from video games involving swamps.
2. Go through what I've collected, and pick out some of my favor...
Sorry, yesterday did NOT go as planned, and I didn't give myself time for drawing.
I'll make sure I still do each of the five types of concept drawings by the end of the week 👍
SO, scenarios are gonna be a bit trickier for me, since they involve a little more thinking and planning regarding what happens in the illustration/comic. I made some progress on the Forest scenario yesterday, but not a ton. I'm wondering if I might make the drawings for these scenarios ...

Some of Dr. Klaxon's robots, designed after things found in the forest.
Robot designs are fun to play around with :)
I was hoping to draw six characters, but today's been a pretty busy day, not as much time for drawing, so I'll just post the three characters I did make.
A shopaholic squirrel, a door-to-door salesman woodpecker, and a security owl :)
It was actually easier to think of charact...
I had some extra energy today, so I went and drew a bunch of industrial props, since they would be pretty common in a series about a team of maintenance animals :)

Another successful day!
Here are a bunch of the man-made (or in this case, animal-made) objects I imagine being in the forest.
It has begun!
Here's my plan. At the beginning of each week, I will select a theme.
After selecting my theme, each weekday will be dedicated to a different kind of drawing for that theme:
Monday - environment concepts
Tuesday - infrastructure concepts (buildings, roads, signs, decor,...
I'm totally finished with the pitch bible projects I mentioned before!
So now, I REALLY wanna start building on Project Slick.
I did some practice doodling in my sketchbook yesterday. Three pages of doodles, not bad!
The plan is to start "doodling with a purpose", and make things specifi...
ALMOST done with the pitch bible project I mentioned before. I promise, I'm getting back to Project Slick ASAP!

Hello, patrons!
The main reason I haven't posted much lately is because I've been hired to help make illustrations for a series pitch bible! I can't share much more than that, since I agreed to keep things private between me and my client, but it's been going quite well! I Imagine I'll be fini...
Kairel, Xiro, and Panthy from the 2007 film Noah's Ark.

Another new set!
Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Felix the Cat, and Koko the Clown :)
I'm FINALLY making some progress with these!
Here are King Kazma, Kenji, and Love Machine from Summer Wars. This is the second 3-Character Set that I was commissioned to do.
Hello patrons and visitors! I gotta report what I'm doing to ya!
1. Commissions
I had a good first round of commissions last week! I got all eight Single-Character commissions finished in just three days. I was planning to work on just one 3-Character Set commission per week like I did befo...
Hello patrons and visitors! Here's a rough description of my plan moving forward:
- I'm gonna try making designs to sell as stickers on Redbubble. I've already got 6 designs ready to sell there! I've considered possibly letting people pay to request custom sticker designs to be added to my sto...
FINISHED!
This is my last one for the year!
Shazza, Ty, and Julius :)
Kinda weird how I'm completing the bonus characters before the main sets, lol.
Here are Boss Cass, and one of his Frill Lizard henchmen :)
FINALLY got a full set done. Sly Cooper, Bentley, and Murray :)

Since I already started the outlining on this one, I went ahead and finished it before the main set :P
Carmelita Fox, and Clockwerk :)
