to promote my patreon i'm launching new commission types on february 1st, & all offers will be temporarily discounted to help me build up a portfolio of fresh examples! this'll be open until all slots are filled for the month, but certain patrons get priority!

my skills have come a long way since my first batches of formline headshots, so they will be somewhat experimental and probably closer stylistically to the NITW piece i did (posted in my intro poast). boss battle splashes will also be experimental since it's new (excited to add this as an option since i got some interest in them), and i've added pencil headshots as a more affordable option to get art from me of your cute and silly furries (i had so much fun drawing the example, i missed doing more character-focused work!).

if you pledge to my patreon now for just 5$/mo, you will have access to priority claims for these discounted slots when they open on february morning!

full descriptions of the offers & TOS are on my commission site, and of course here is my patreon if i haven't plugged that enough already LOL. t'oyaxsut 'nüüsm, the support i've already gotten from here has been really amazing 🧡💖

Here's the cover I was hired to make for the ttrpg Incarnation

i'm very sorry for the title of this post. it'll never happen again. this series is tagged as "#cherrydish1" so you can search or follow that tag for past posts and updates

So, remember when i said this piece of wood was free? that's because it was a cant (a milling term for the product of a flattening cut that's mostly sapwood/bark and is natural on one face) and had been on the ground (sawed surface down) for at least a year. the middle of this thing was pretty rotten, but i thought i'd try the faceplate anyway. thought i'd give it a whirl.

i figured out the extent of the rot pretty quick. the third image was miraculously captured by the timelapse at the moment the screws let go and the axis of spin changed by the first few degrees. you can contrast it with the second image and you'll see it. it was at maybe 300 rpm when it came off the faceplate. it hit the tool rest and bounced well over my head. i was looking for it like a dumbass for a second or two when i heard it land behind me.

i think normal people would count themselves fortunate at this point, cut their loss (less than an hour of work and zero dollars) and move onto the next thing.

but don't worry: more is forthcoming.
