This Saturday 5/25/19 starting at 5:30pm Pacific will be my 4th anniversary stream on Picarto. Yep, 4 years ago through the support of my patrons on Patreon, and the many customer who purchase my works I was able to quit my day job and go full-time as a freelance illustrator. So join me for an evening of art, stories, celebrations, and some really great folks. See you there!
I said when I passed 2000 followers on Twitter and kept those numbers for a couple week I would do a drunken Picarto stream. Well tonight 5/11/19 starting at 5:30pm Pacific it's happening. Join for an evening of art, cocktails, stories, cocktails, some great folks, cocktails, more cocktails. I think you get the picture.
A patron reward for Sura-Resch. He wanted my take on Cosmos from the IDW MLP comics. Apparently she was Discord's girlfriend at one point.
This Saturday 5/11/19 starting at 5:30pm Pacific I'll be creating more art on Picarto.
I don't know if this qualifies as one of Baron's Art Tips or as simple cautionary tale, but here it is. At the start of Babscon last week I began working on a drawing of an anthropomorphic Rarity (Plainity) in a hoodie. I've been meaning to do a series of hoodie ponies for a while. It wasn't a commission, just something I was poking at off and on when I was bored.
Later during the convention SnivianMoon dropped by the Roan RPG table and talked to me a series of anthro genie pony pieces. My, my folks seem to be interested in my anthro genie ponies. Bottled Six Thumbnails Last Babscon I had done a genie drawing of SnivianMoon's OC but this time he wanted Rarity as a genie pony. There's worst things to want in life. So I decided that first I would do some thumbnails poses and he'd pick the one he liked, and any poses he didn't like I could recycle for other ponies. Anyone interested in an anthro Sunset Shimmer genie?
So I grabbed a piece of paper from an envelope and went to town brainstorming ideas. It was only after I had sent the client a phone photos of the thumbnails that I realized I had down them on the other side of the sheet of paper that had hoodie Rarity on it. Doh! So the lesson today boys and girls is don't be like Uncle Baron. Check that you've got a clean sheet of paper before you start drawing!
If you'd like to see me drawing on clean sheets of paper tune in 4/27/19 starting at 5:30pm Pacific on Picarto to see create more art.
