Big, Long Update!
🕑 Added 2021-03-25 22:38:19 +0000 UTCHey all! It's been a while since I checked in with general news and updates so I figured now might be a good time! I actually have a LOT to tell you about, so I'm including a bonus pose for your attention! ♥
The Handy Hand Book
Null-Entity and I have been secretly working on this since like November and IT'S FINALLY JUST ABOUT READY. We have a physical sample coming tomorrow and then we'll be ready to set up pre-orders.
It's a 8.5" x 5.5" (21.5cm x 14cm) 49 page book with over 400 photo references of hands (mine and Kyles)
Retail Prices will be:
- $28 + shipping for Physical Book & PDF
- $22 just PDF
Preorder prices will be:
- $25 + shipping for Physical Book & PDF
- $20 just PDF
I am talking to Kyle now about getting discounts for my Patrons for at least the PDF only version but since it's a team project, I gotta clear that stuff with him first.
We hope you love our intentionally horrid cover design. ♥ I've recently found out that UK VAT is not required for educational materials so I actually might be okay to ship to UK clients for this one! I am in the process of registering for VAT. It's horrid. 8D
Old Downloads Not Working
Due to my server failure a few summers ago and ongoing issues with my old domain host, there are a LOT of old ZIPs links that aren't working. I am fixing them as I come across them and some of you have been super helpful in messaging me when you find them. THANK YOU. Keep doing that! If you find ANY old download that don't work, message me! I will update those posts ASAP. I have all the files still I just need to figure out which things are missing.
I also have a plan at some point to go through all the old posts and clean up the legacy tags (because now we have keywords and search!) and put keywords in for olders posts. As you can imagine, this is a time consuming project. It's sort of on the 'do someday' list. I know Patreon doesn't make it easy to find specific things but you can ALWAYS ALWAYS message me and I will help you try to find something either here, or on DA, or in my archives.
You All Get Requests
Along with the above, most of you know this, but as a reminder, if you need something specific, please message me! I know my stuff pretty well and I know which keywords I use. I can help narrow down your search on DeviantArt and find specific things here faster.
If I don't have the specific thing you need, I have a studio in my house! I can do a lot of stuff for you! I am currently limited to just me for a model due to covid but sometimes we can fake being more than one person and RARELY I can coerce my husband into being a faceless body. ;D Turnaround times on specific stuff can vary so always let me know if you're working against a deadline.
New Testimonials
The main page of my Patreon has some testimonials from artists who are/were my Patrons. I use these messages sometimes for promotional stuff on socials and such. If you would like to leave a brief testimonial about why you became my Patron (or why you're still a Patron if you've been here a while!) please message me with your words and whatever social/name you'd like to be tagged with if I post them. :3
The New Sketch App Is FINALLY Coming!
Back in early 2021 (wait, what month is it...) I moved to AdorkaStock.com with my new branding and site. The Sketch App has been old branding since then, but the new and improved version is super close to done.
Patrons who are in the Discord will probably get to see a test version of the app this coming week. I will make another post here after I've had people poke it a bit. I'm attaching some teaser images showing some of the fun new features!
I'm on TikTok?
Yeah it's something, that's for sure. But hey, more videos!! I'm AdorkaStock there. If you use it for art lmk and I will follow you.
DTIYS Challenges
The peeps I have helping me with FB and IG are going to be running some DTIYS (Draw This In Your Style) challenges in the next few months. They are gunna share the posts and stuff so look out for that and participate if you have time! ♥
OKAY THAT'S EVERYTHING I THINK. Yay.
