Kickstarter update and a new illustration!✨
New art, more Kickstarter progress, and - wanna hang out?
I showed the sketch to you last month, but now it’s done! Here’s a concept for a dark fantasy book cover.
This is the first image I’m throwing on the internet with Glaze! It’s a protection layer that should protect the work from being used in AI models without the artist’s consent.
And by the way, I’m making this illustration available for licensing! If you happen to be working on a story that this would be a good cover for, send me an email and we can talk about that :)
Lots of waiting, seeking, not knowing
March has been marked by lots of “Yeah, it might happen. Or maybe not. Wait a few weeks.” both in my professional and personal life. I can’t share why yet, but geez, being in limbo with multiple aspects of your life definitely makes it hard to concentrate 😂
Breakthrough with D&D Dress Up packs
After searching for a month an a half, my friend Arjen helped me fix the D&D Dress Up app prototype so it works on desktop AND mobile! I’m so proud that people would come together to make this possible for the packs.
I have some cosmetic fixes to do and things to set up still, but I aim to release them for D&D Dress Up users together with the Kickstarter! I’m so excited because the app is so fun to play around with and it’s going to make creating your custom character so much easier.
Launch date for the Kickstarter & campaign prep progress
I’m gearing for the 3rd week of April! Haven’t decided on an exact date yet, but I’ll let you know as soon as I’ve finalized that of course.
The waiting I mentioned a few paragraphs above also influences the scale of the tiers I can or can’t offer with the D&D Dress Up Kickstarter. I think I’ve found a solution to be flexible but still launch within a couple of weeks. I don’t want to wait until everything is known because otherwise it might take ages before the Kickstarter happens. And I want to get all you Human Fighter players your custom characters!
Tiers I’m conisdering are the Human Fighter pack (obviously), bundles with the Elf Rangers, custom art tiers and possibly an art print tier, where you’ll get a print of your favorite combination!
Resuming comic streams
With the next few Netherrealms pages penciled, I’ve also started streaming again! So if you’d like to see me draw, come hang out on Tuesdays until I have no more pages to ink/flat :)
And that wraps up March!
Despite the chaos in my head because of the waiting game, my calendar seems to be getting some breathing room so I can focus more on the Kickstarter. Thank you all for being here for another month and supporting my work! I’m so glad you’re here.
