hatton_slayden post breed world update from patreon

i try to keep around 4 images per day of updates. but some days, due to family life or just "one of those days" i can only work on one thing in a day. sometimes i get so into one image i can work on it the whole day.so as my supporters, what do you prefer? always strive for 4 posts per day?or less then 4 is ok ...

breed world update

more refinement

random smexy

lines done now print and start painting

draw me like french bugs

i have not started the cricket girl (Liu) because she has such a stark green that im not using in the 6 other images and i feel it will mess with my head....of course tomorrow i might just get over myself and work on her anyway

bug girl underpainting

sexy color sketch

i did a quick lay down of color with clip studio. this is just a reference before i print out the lines and do my copic/watercolor underpaintings

acryla gouache Mar WIP
