Greetings. The first time I opened my commissions docket it filled in less than twenty-four hours, but many of my watchers and longtime supporters did not find out about until after all slots had already filled.

So this time I am giving folks some advance warning. This Friday April 4th I will be opening my black and white docket again for $25.00+ sketches. I will have six slots for new art assignments. I am still not taking any new color assignments at this time.

Since many folks got left out the first time around I will be giving new customers first dibs at the slots. If after the 4th there are still slots available then I'll take repeat customers.  I strongly recommend that potential new customers read my commission guidelines first before inquiring about a commission. Note. Individuals attempting to secure a slot before April 4th will be automatically declined.

The Keeper's Warrior - Illo 3

The Warrior, passes by a bread stand on his way to visit the shire of Euseeda. Maybe he should grab a couple of rolls for the road....

Moving right along with the Illustrations for 'The Keeper's Warrior". 3 down, 6 to go!

Getting better with Manga Studio. Got a longs way to go though. Tried in this piece to use the perspective ruler. Could not grok it so I just did the perspective the old fashioned way. Find my point of view, find the horizon-line, then start dropping in diagonals where they meet. I think it all worked out in the end.

mmm fresh baked, hot piping bread...

Great. Now I'm hungry.

The second illustration for 'The Keeper's Warrior' is done. The Keeper nervously steps away from his tree.

Thanks all who came to my Livestream. After the stream was over, I realized I forgot to add the tree's markings so I quickly added them in. I'll start the next one soon, like today or tomorrow. There's going to be nine illustrations all together for the book so there's plenty of chances for you to drop by and check out what's happening.

Today we took one more step toward completing all the necessary filings to make Smudge Marks and Engel Werks a completely functioning company. After a trip to the county clerks office we now have our official fictitious business name on file; now we just need to get it published in a local paper within the next week or so. Once that accomplished we will be able get our business bank account opened and set up a PayPal account that will deposit directly into. This will help avoid commingling of funds which is a good thing. After that is accomplished we can get our Resellers Permit from the State of California. Then it is full steam ahead. Yeah!
