Quicktober! Quick draws for instant whims.

It's Halloween, and there's more costumes to enjoy!

At first I'd intended to do two for each of these two final posts for Quicktober, but once I got to four, I realized I was pretty much halfway done - and came up with an idea for everyone (with one exception, which you'll see below).

The poses and detailing work on all of the costume sketches were extremely fun to do; I felt like I was in the flow for the entire set, and I think it really shows through in the art.

For this set, we have Chili, Antoinette, and Me! Can you guess who we're dressed up as? There's clues and answers hidden below.

Did you guess them all?

With that, Quicktober is done! What a trip it's been. For a while since starting it, I've felt like this wasn't as ambitious an undertaking as Kinktober in 2023, but sitting with that feeling a little longer, I think I made up for the lack of colour and linework that I showcased back then, with quite a bit of storytelling and doubling up on several of the ideas I made every day.

I'm proud of having gotten it done, and what I got done as a result of it, too; especially with a lot of the other challenges I'd been dealing with this month, and not having missed a single day despite, at times, feeling like I really, really wanted to.

With that said though, you might have noticed someone missing! That's because my friend MoT was kind enough to make a costume for Chip while I was working on the first ones of these on stream!

It's such an amazing piece! Look at the BuBuy²!!

It's Halloween! I wasn't gonna let the holiday pass by without some fun with dressing up, so here's what I came up with.

At first I'd intended to do two for each of these two final posts for Quicktober, but once I got to four, I realized I was pretty much halfway done - and came up with an idea for everyone (with one exception, which you'll see tomorrow).

The poses and detailing work on all of the costume sketches were extremely fun to do; I felt like I was in the flow for the entire set, and I think it really shows through in the art.

For this set, we have Rayna, Puppy, Flake, and Praline. Can you guess who we're dressed up as? There's clues and answers hidden below.

For Halloween I made something for myself as a treat, cause I was needing something fun for a change. This was actually Garnet's idea, which she shared with me with the intention of commissioning it, but I liked it so much that I made it anyway. The hardest part was naturally deciding between drawing myself as a puppy in a bunny costume, or a bunny in a puppy costume.

I neglected to put this on my site originally because I figured posting it publicly right away would make it redundant, but I forgot that's kinda the point of being on 10 different sites, after all. So here it is!

I still can't get over how much I love the response of "I'm bunny" to Garnet calling me a clever girl.

Feels almost like a lifetime ago now, but even still, I hope you had a good Halloween.

A while back, I made this little gift for my good friend Piter; inspired by a conversation in a group chat we share.

I like Gravity Falls, so the combination of factors made this a fun idea to work on.

And guess what - this is a brand new YCH slot too! In an effort to revive the YCH commissioning system I set up years ago, I've now added the option for public slots that everybody can order! Some will still be reserved to patrons, especially when on discount or discontinued, but this way, everybody gets to have a turn.

Go grab it now!

Remember Happy Campers? Yeah, I certainly haven't forgotten about that project, and I still have every intention of picking it up again.

I made this during one of the Christmas streams with Austin and Russel, slightly aged up, and in fancy dress. Maybe it's a teaser of what's to come?

I don't want to lead people on with promised dates and predictions cause I have a lot going on right now, but just for the time being, take this post as a way for me to say that Happy Campers will be back.

Zeph is getting into the Halloween spirit early with his adorable Gideon costume. He might have forgotten half of it somewhere along the way, but never mind - he made pie!

This is the final standalone reward left from the old patronage system, though there are some standalone patron streams still left to get done besides Tiff and Wolfie's regular ones. It's been such a wild ride and I'll be a little sad to see them go, but even with my own personal projects now taking center stage, there'll still be plenty more fun collaborative stuff like this coming in the form of sponsored and commissioned art.

I really want to thank everyone who pledged at the higher tiers over the past 3 (!!) years since I set up my Patreon page. If FA's search function is anything to go by, it's resulted in approximately 265 illustrations in total, which is a pretty sizeable body of work by any measure.

As always, I hope you've enjoyed seeing these art rewards as much as I have making it for you all. With the start of a new chapter on this site, you can look forward to more and better content to come very soon.
