Fall is here and its time for a Newsletter

 

Fall is Here

Where did summer go? Everything is yellow, its rainy and grey outside.... ugh I am not ready for winter. There is so much yard work I need to get done before the snow covers and hides everything. But enough of that! I have a sale going on in my online store, use code VESPER for 10% off to celebrate the release of a kick ass dungeon. The sale lasts from October 15 to October 22.


GCX and the Future of Destiny

GCX was a huge success! Out of state conventions are harder for me to pull off since I have to travel so far, but I can safely say after 3 years of doing this one that I am finally figuring out how to do these without taking a loss. Thank you to everyone who came by and bought some art. It's crazy to think that my art is in so many places around the world now. This has been my best convention to date and we are going to keep the momentum going. While Destiny is not in the greatest of places right now, I still am planning on making a few new pieces for gcx. By next GCX I will have another set of 8 raid bosses and also 8 dungeon bosses too. Outside of that, I probably won't be drawing much for Destiny. This franchise will still be one of my biggest inspirations, I am just going to apply it to my own creations. Destiny ended for me when Salvation's Edge released, and while I will still keep up to date with it I probably won't play much outside of new raids. It's been fun, but it's time for me to move on.

Monthly Sticker Club Design and Kofi Perks

September's envelopes are out the door and now it is time to prep for October. The next monthly sticker is going to be a big Magpie! You will only be able to get it through the monthly sticker club so hurry and sign up now. Along with the sticker club, I also offer digital phone wallpapers each month exclusive to members of any tier. Lastly, Kofi is going to be the platform where I put all of my original paintings for sale. Usually I only have them available for purchase at live events, but I want my whole community to be able to have a chance to pick one up at any time. I only have a few up at the moment since making listings is very tedious, but I will try to have all 70 of them up within the month of October.
October's Sticker



Shop Update November 3rd

I am updating my online store on November 3rd with new prints and stickers! I have prints of a Raven, Magpie, Gray Jay, and Stellar's Jay as well as a few new print packs as well. The Corvids will be available as both singles and in a pack, the landscapes will only be available in packs. Packs include Winter, Birch, DND, and Corvids. I will also finally put my wooden pins online, this includes all of the DND birds, a chicken, and a Raven. Stickers will include all of the birds I did for the raven show.

A Busy Holiday Season

I am doing a lot of holiday events this season! All of them are in Fairbanks except for one. For my last convention of the year I am heading down to Minneapolis for Twin Cities Comic Con, something I am VERY excited for. Be sure to look at the list and see if you can go to a few.

What I'm Working On

Well lets start with the usual, I am still working on landscapes every week and I am always drawing random birds. Volume 2 of the fantasy bird guide is starting to happen, I will have these 20 new birds done and formatted by Alaska Comic Con next year. For the Raven show I will have a lot of new bird-related prints and stickers to reveal. By Twin Cities comic con I will have a couple new fan art pieces, probably Elden Ring or Pokemon themed. In between prepping for those events, I am slowly working on a hoodie design that I want to do. Idk on a timeframe but I eventually want to sell clothing of some sort. The same goes for a desk mat, I really, really want to do one.
