August Report
🕑 Added 2024-09-05 00:37:29 +0000 UTCHappy September, friends! ✨Every day the pull in my heart to draw witches grows stronger and my ability to resist is weakened. 🧙♀️ Thank you for your support this August 🧡Let's review. Here’s what we have wrought:
AUGUST GOALS: 3️⃣/3️⃣ 🍾🎉🥃
✅More Fanart!
✅Libby&Holly CH3:PG31-35
✅CYOA PT 15
📊Let’s get into the report!⬇️
Coming off July my schedule going forward is starting to finally look more consistent and more manageable and I’m going to do all I can to make it stay that way.
Embracing the corporate art template for August was a fun thing to play around with and it led to me pursuing some silly ideas, office lady, for one.
It came a little bit later for me in the month, but the big naturals princess idea also resulted from indulging in this meta office narrative idea...
I think I needed some diversions early in the month because I embraced the ✅More Fanart Goal and made a lot of Audrey Ramirez fanart.
I just really enjoyed filling up the template with drawings and playing off the two tone palette that the border kinda reinforces.
I have not forgotten Kida or Helga and I have a rough WIP page I showed to gold patrons last week but I haven’t quite cleaned it up yet because I shifted gears back to finish...
✅Libby&Holly CH3:PG31-35!
These pages are pure fun as far as I’m concerned. Lots of drawing challenges but it feels really good to draw these moments of zero restraint after a chapter of nothing but.
Many of these still have rough, incomplete color but I’ll give a full pass to the book right before I wrap it all up and make sure the color feels cohesive and consistent throughout.
✅CYOA PT 15 - At first y’all stumped me when you FIRMLY wanted to stay put with Paier instead of exploring the environment but I am nothing if not a silver lining finder.
You might have been hoping for a threesome but you got a size difference orgy instead.
Sorry not sorry. 💖
This one's my favorite she's so cute. I think she's wearing a little hood that actually covers her ears like socks. :3
I kind of relish getting to make up characters for a scene that don’t have to be a part of the party because I can be a little fast and loose with character designs and have no responsibility to them long term. I hope it’s not disappointing that you won’t be able to recruit a dozen garden sprites, 😉
Coming up next: Double Feature Comic Project
This is a part of my ongoing process to involve other artists in the work that we do here!
I’ve been developing a short comic project idea that I’m calling “Double Feature” in my head because it’s two stories I have written so that I can draw one and give the second one to a ✨GUEST ARTIST!
My story involves a satyr and swordsman which will conveniently overlap with one of the poll themes from last month.😏 The accompanying story will have a medusa gf❤️🐍❤️
I know I shouldn’t complicate my schedule any more than I am already so I’m going to slot in the Double Feature project between Libby & Holly Ch3 and Ch4. I usually find that I stumble a bit between chapters and comic projects so I’m experimenting with this to see if I can smoothly pick one up as I put another down.
This is my first time writing for someone else to draw so that’s a new challenge, but I’m excited to be able to use the support you give me to help support other artists and in turn make EVEN MORE fun things I think you’ll enjoy! It’s a beautiful cycle. 🥰 I’ll be sharing more of that when it’s a little further along!
Wrapping up, here's what's in the works this months.
SEPTEMBER GOALS:
⏹️ Libby and Holly 36-40 - My primary goal for the month is completing this chapter and I think 40 pages will bring us there, maybe I’ll need 2 more. I’m not 100% sure just yet but I’ll get close.
⏹️CYOA Pt 16 - I’m looking forward to drawing this one :)
⏹️ Fanart characters complete. - I want to honor the idea that I’ll draw every fanart theme poll character AT LEAST ONCE. Before we get up to another poll in October.🎃 I didn’t expect to spend so much time drawing Audrey tbh 😅
THANK YOU for your magical and patient support 🧡I feel incredibly lucky to be able to do what I’m doing and I hope you enjoy being around for the ride!
If you have any questions or comments of things that you’d really like to see more of on the patreon, I’m always open to hearing them, because it helps me steer my future plans.
Happy Wednesday!
🧡Winton

That's true, even if I respond to comments on patreon it is a little impersonal. I have thought before that with the kind of folks that seem to gather here we could all have a really interesting book club or something 😂 I appreciate your input on this. I am loathe to do something if I don't feel like I can do it well but maybe if I can corral a friend to help mod things I'll take the plunge and start one up for real :)

I mean im in a really good Disc from skellyfrankie, she is like the goal of the servers, but the most thing i like is the diversity in there, we can post pet pics til nsfw ART (ours too), but i would love to see the respect from each other and the union towards your artwork + you interaction with us besides pools here in patreon that looks like a robotic thingy, you know ❤️
Winton Kidd
You know Carol, I do not to😅 I've considered it but I worry I would not be active enough in it to justify it's existence. 😅 That said, since you're obviously asking for a reason, if I DID have a discord, what kinda things would you be hoping to get out of it that you haven't found in other discords already?
Carol Pires
Hi, do you have a Discord or group chat that us (members) can talk?
Winton Kidd
💕Oh you're jumping right into dream scenario territory 😂 There's so many artists I'd love to work with in the future, but for this one I'm working with a close buddy of mine just because it'll make the collaboration process easier as a first try. :) Rest assured if I can find a way to make collaborations happen regularly I'm going to start knocking on the doors of a lot of artists I admire, Incase included :D
Winton Kidd
HA! I'm glad you can look past Berserk related trauma to enjoy the art from this month's update 😅 While I think a super grim, dark D&D experience with lots of high stakes action and blood and guts could be pretty fun, for this project I'm keeping it light :3 Happy to hear you're enjoying the work, Zack! Thanks for making it possible! 💕
Winton Kidd
Thank you thank you Fable! 🩷 Glad you enjoyed the work and are excited about what's to come! :D
Winton Kidd
hehe I feel like I always come back around to drawing little flower fairies so I'm thinking it might happen :)
Winton Kidd
👏I'm excited about it!! :D
Bastiaan
Guest artist, you say? Incase collab when?
Zack
I'm clearly still traumatized by the "Lost Children" arc in Berserk, because cute lil faeries and sprites always strike me as very sinister until proven otherwise. It's a huge relief to hear that these ones really are just having a bit of harmless horny fun! And the scene itself was awesome, super imaginative and well executed. You're crushing it as always!
Fable
This was a banger of a month, amazing work!!! So excited for the myth creatures story!
Taylor
Omg that was my favorite garden sprite too! She’s sooo cute! Would love to see her pop up again in the future at some point because she’s so cutie lol
Sephiroth1204
3/3 woo! The art this month was great that comic project should be interesting as well!
