🌲✨December Bonus Card!
🕑 Added 2022-11-18 18:05:57 +0000 UTCGood afternoon, Blackbirds!!
I know I always say I’m excited to share everything with you — and I mean it every time!! But I really have been thrilled to try something out and show you the results.
Yes yes, our beloved best boy Hemlock is back en deshabille to celebrate Yule!! As you all know, it isn’t very usual for me to create a whole new illustration just for the monthly bonus card. However, I’m a little exhausted by every illustration I make being a 35-50+ hour grand work, especially after the last few months of ridiculous detail. Of course, that is the kind of work I love to make, but my soul yearns to remember how to make quicker little things too.
I’ve pulled together some inspiration for historical works that rely very heavily on simple but engaging linework and flat color. I’ve included two of those pieces here! I really adore those works, and I’m going to enjoy continuing to try to emulate them when I’m in the mood to make new little things for bonus cards.
I think I got pretty close to the mark — especially in the original simple gradient map, which I’ve also included, I feel like I was very much onto something. But something still feels off, doesn’t it? What do you think it is? 🤔🤔🤔
There are currently plenty of Raven Dandy slots open if you want to slide in and get this card in your December delivery! The deadline is November 30th to update your tier!

I love these so much ! The color palettes are both amazing, monotone is always hard to work with but your approach to it is so nice; for the historical piece I think it has a more washed out, old Japanese - tint like look, but yours is bright and full of lights ! I love them! I love all your works
