Big size! The new voting incentive is a spoiler for the current page, so I wanted to make sure the page went live and was announced before I added it. It'll be going up in just a minute. [EDIT: It's up now!]

I originally posted these profiles to the Secret Gallery Tier in 2015, and they're also available in the Secret Gallery and in the main channel on Discord. But since the original Patreon posts were so old and Patreon has gone through some formatting changes, the original images have gotten mangled and illegible, and the posts can't be properl...

I still have a few to get to, but here are some of the sketch requests from the Merritt's Story event last weekend! The one above was a request for the jade plant from the excerpt I posted in the Discord chat, but I got a little carried away. ^_^

At long last, I have the sketches for last month's Sketch Tier rotation! Huge thanks to the sketch folks for waiting! <3
This round took about double what it usually takes me to do sketches because it's almost all card portraits for the upcoming deck, and it required a lot of new character designs and re-figuring out stuff with the deck....

Another off week for comic pages, but I wrapped up Torrence's new card! I have previously talked about his position in the deck, but since I know some people may be trying to avoid Merritt's Story spoilers, for now I'll refrain from saying if this card will appear in the standard deck or in one of the pre-DOTU expansions. He doesn't loo...

Also, big thanks to all the new patrons and patrons who increased their pledges over the weekend! It was an unusual amount, and I was a little surprised. ^_^ And of course, thank you to everyone who's still sticking around and pledging as always! <3
I normally don't make changes to old pages unless there's something actually wrong with it - proportion/symmetry/anatomy/continuity type stuff.

It's an off week for comic pages, but I managed to get another card portrait colored in between freelance jobs! Patreon tends to oversaturate my jpegs a bit when I upload them... It did the same with Belmont's. *shrug*
Balbo didn't have a card in the original deck, so she'll be taking the spot of a filler character.
Next up, I'l...

Now that my 300-hour month is over, I have time to get back to the card deck! Next up after 2154-era Jordana is Belmont, looking a touch older than he did in my last secret gallery illustration since this is a present-day portrait.
