That's quite a bit of work, isn't it? Be sure to check the Dropbox Archive, as it's up to date.
[UPDATE] Plans for the Week
I'm prioritizing a Concept Art & Discussion thread for this week, though I'm not sure exactly how long it will be, as I may opt for something more in line with the first two threads made. The subject will either be related to a design pass at Ganon or Elayne Beaumont stuff.
As for NSFW Sketch Suggestions, I'm planning to squeeze another batch out before we end the month, though because I did draw a bunch of commissions, I'm not forcing myself to get a full batch of 5 pieces. Maybe 3 or 4? We'll have to see!
Reflection: Last Week
This previous week was a slow week, though it was, by no means, an inactive one. It was still a technically busy one, as I had taken on several commissions during my live streams. I have mentioned wanting to stream a bit more often, as well as take commissions again, despite how stressful they can be, because I'm still not making minimum wage via Patreon.
Though, this current batch of commissions is to eventually afford a new computer -- with a pricey set of specifications. So I'll probably be actively taking these commissions for a while, though I could technically reach my goal by the start of next month if I can take a few every single day until then.
I've worked a bit too much during these streams though, and I even woke up a very late today, so I need to be more mindful of how late I'm working…
Anyway, here's my stream, for those of you unfamiliar with it: https://picarto.tv/brellom
Now that I've thought about what's just happened, it's about time to think about what's happening next -- particularly within the next few months.
Linktober
I recently expressed an interest in participating during this year's Linktober, an art challenge in which participants create daily content based on The Legend of Zelda during October. Perhaps it'll lead to some exposure of my work, as well as allow me to explore more of my personal take on The Legend of Zelda.
You can follow the official Twitter at: https://twitter.com/linktober
As you can imagine, daily art challenges are time-consuming. As a result, my October posting habits may be different from my usual habits. Because they have strict deadlines, they may be ideal for our typical Early Access model, and I don't want to create a bunch of notifications, with each piece getting it's own Patreon post. So I'll have to think about that.
Elayne Beaumont Comic
As we inch closer to October, we're offered an amazing opportunity for Elayne Beaumont, given the concept's inherent spooky nature. I'd like to create and release a comic on October 31st -- there is no better time for it, if you ask me.
Though, like Linktober, comics are also time-consuming. I'm also significantly less familiar with the process of making comics reliably, and there's still a lot about Elayne Beaumont's concept that I have yet to iron out. It's intimidating. Pre-planning will be immensely important if I'm to expect an October 31st release date, as will making sure that I limit the quality so that such a release window is reasonable.
As a personal project, this Elayne comic should probably have higher priority than Linktober, which will also need pre-planning, but I'd like to get both to work… There's not very much time until October, especially if these two plans are going to compete with one another for my time.
Anyway, that's where my mind's at, so you know what I'm going to try focusing on in the coming weeks. It's very possible that the entirety of next month will be built around those ideas.
Don't forget to eat & sleep.

It should probably be the priority, as it is a relatively original property by comparison, but it's less likely to be cared about by others, and more likely to be stressful too. I'm going to try to make both work though.

I'd prefer an Elayne thing to Linktober, though I know that Links make the pancakes around these parts...
