Art Update // Leveling Up My Design Skills! What To Expect
🕑 Added 2021-10-13 11:39:29 +0000 UTCNow that I have restructured my Patreon a bit, I have a few things I want to change in my art process!
I'm much quicker at painting, I leveled those skills up, now I need to level up my design skills! I can paint faster, but that only takes me so far if my character design skills can't keep up.
I want to design my Annie & The Mirror Goat world and its denizens the right way, and I want to take you all on that journey with me!

Leveling Up My Design Skills!
I spend a lot of time discussing Annie & The Mirror Goat designs and working out personality on my Discord. Almost none of that makes it to Patreon posts.
One of my biggest issues is not allowing myself time to explore a design idea. I can end up with stiff characters, not a lot of personality on display and wonky color choices. It has taken me ages to get Annie right. Annie was being difficult, very fitting for a mischievous fox lady, ha ha~
I have issues painting because my designs are not properly worked out. I often rush to the full painting phase because I feel pressure to post big art up on Patreon, so...
I wish to make designing my characters and Annie world a bigger part of my Patreon!
------------
What To Expect?
Sketches and quick paintings to nail down character designs with many sexy scenarios showing personality off!
Honey Bunny and Kore/Sedah are good examples of what to expect!
I spent the last few days organizing all my art files! I will be providing Photoshop Files (PSDs) as well as explaining my design and painting process more now!
My big paintings and Ask Annie requests will be much easier and smoother to make if I properly design and build my characters up first!
TL;DR:
Not properly designing my Annie characters and world slows my painting down. I want to make fleshing them out a bigger part of my Patreon so all parts of my art is represented here! More expressive, sexy art to build personality!
Up Next:
Halloween paintings with Annie and design work on Maeven The Graveyard Hellhound!
