Working on art

I have been practicing my drawing and have posted some things over on my Facebook wall. I thought I would share it here too. Eventually, I will move my artwork over to my Patreon page. More details about that will be coming soon!

I've been working digitally and traditionally (paper). And I made the decision to buy one of the top digital drawing tablets, a Wacom Cintiq 22HD . Actually, Wacom made the decision for me...details are on my Facebook wall. But after a lot of nail-biting and maybe a panic attack, I decided to keep it.

*Insert happy dance* I love the Wacom. I'm still figuring things out and will share some of my tips over on my Patreon.

Here are some of my earlier attempts at stylized drawings. Doxies are so naughty and will be a lot of fun to draw. Uncensored versions will be on my Patreon so I don't get in trouble with Blogger or Facebook. The last image (near the bottom of the page) is my most recent and drawn using my new tablet.  

My first try with the Wacom doing stylized art on the left. I decided to do a realistic drawing as well. The started painting is on the right. Finished product is below.

Thanks for checking out my art and reading my books I appreciate you guys more than you know :) 

Stay tuned for more art over on my Patreon. As soon as it is up and running I'll post about it here and all my social media. Maybe one day I can take art requests over there.

I have sent the next three Bound Gods books to the second editor. Stay tuned for release dates!

Coming Soon: Patreon for all things Bound Gods

https://www.patreon.com/

For those who are interested, in the next couple of weeks, I will be setting up a Patreon page for everything Bound Gods. This will include (but not be limited to) character index and bios as well as blueprints, maps, unknown history, known history, backstory on a few characters, plus tidbits not yet known about etc. I plan on offering the large majority of this for free.

If/when I start putting up the webcomic it will have a paid sub subscription for all the "naughty" parts. So basically you can read the story for free, but the juicy stuff will be for paying members. I don't plan on charging much at all, but hopefully, I'll be able to get enough patrons to maintain the site and keep it up to date. With the way patreon works, you make a monthly pledge, however, you are NOT charged if I don't update content.

I've also considered doing personal drawings for top supporting members who'd like a Doxie or god, created in their image ;). (basically, you tell me what they look like and I do my best to make it happen.)

And I'm also considering, for top members to let them create a future Doxie character to appear in the comic or the books.

Anyhow...that's my plan. If anyone has anything particular they are interested in or suggestions, please let me know.

COVER REVEAL: Bound Gods: God of Monsters Book 8 by Adrienne Wilder

This is the Chimera. I used my own artwork to create this cover (my artwork was also used for Taurus book #7). I was going for fearsome...what do you think?

Books 6 & 7 have been to the editors and I am doing the last run through. Book 8 should come back from the editor this week. Stay tuned for release information!

COVER REVEAL: No X by Adrienne WIlder

It’s a whole different take on werewolves and the lore that’s behind them.
