"Save a seat for AT&T too"
Simply put, I'm done with Patreon, I'm migrating over to Subscribestar sooner than I wanted. Profile is still under review, but here's the link https://www.subscribestar.com/renthedragonofficial
Last day for my Patreon page is August 5th, then the page will be dism...
A bunch of stuff I did up past couple months and some stuff I sketched but never finished until recently, thought of course it'd be fitting to make the main image the next Blackbird Compromised page! Shandra finally meets her captor!
Mind all the mosaic censoring and watermarks, my little backhanded jab at piracy sites like Kemono.
Howdy everyone, I'm alive and well. I've been particularly busy with life stuff on my end, as well as commissions I've taken (Yes, I've started taking them again) and still am), among other things, some of which you'll see in an upcoming post! Some things I did in the past couple months, some being old sketches I cleaned up and finished in between.
I've noticed I've been particularly slo...
I almost had a coronary trying to do this one, small little clip up. 40-50 times of me restarting Blender because it'd get halfway through the timeline and Blender would just CRASH. Had to really mess around with the settings each and every single time to get a speedy and quality result.
Ran the output .avi file through Photoshop and exported as a .gif, which is why it's somewhat grainy....
So, like... Yeah, 3D Blackbirb coming, and thought I'd share what I have so far, since I've made some meaningful progress lately. Thought if I fussed around over every detail and keep waiting until I felt something was presentable, it'd -never- come to light. So, here's a few renders to tide y'all over! The trained eye can definitely see there's more work that needs to be done, I'm tracking, pa...

Get it? Instead of Prize Fighter, it's Prize Bomber! Cause she's taking a fighter... Prize. Pardon the bad joke xD
Bit of a new character I had in the works, Daisy, a grizzled ol B-52 (who looks hot with the linebacker scheme IMHO). Did this one up in a "quick and easy" style, where I cleaned the sketch up and colored it in. I've found this is a better way to get around the daunting task of ...
Another lovely tidings for y'all today! I got more coming! Looks like Shandra's decided to take the fun... Hard way for this, and we will be seeing her host very soon!

Merry Christmas, everyone! It's been a few years since I hatched up an image for my boi, Arty, my SR-91 Aurora, and I've been sitting on getting a proper debut image done up for him! The "original" for this isn't actually meant to be festive, but we shall see more versions soon!

A piece with Shandra and her old human crew. I think I uploaded a sketch for this here, but since redid it, and I'm quite satisfied with how it turned out! I'm also trying something new with this, I am incorporating a 3D background I put together in Blender myself! I've been looking at doing up 3D backgrounds and certain assets to use within my images in order to save some time on drawing these...
2023-11-06 22:35:25 +0000 UTC View PostTook me longer than I said it would, but I've sent out the rewards pack. Enclosed are some pieces from earlier this year I neglected to push out, particularly the "Pebble and the Penguin" piece. I sat on that one for so long because I wanted to add more to it, but... Neglected to. Some I left out because I never quite fully finished them or just looked again and went... Bleh... Some I may wind ...
2023-10-20 01:11:23 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! Some of y'all may know what's been going on for me on my end the past couple months, but I have been wrapping up my 4 years of Active Duty. Hard to believe it's been 4 years since I left for Fort Moore (Formerly Benning), I remember that day like it was yesterday.
I got out late August and began heading back to Miami shortly after. I've been back for over a month now, and...

Ah! Finally, got it done. The one aero in my roster I dread drawing the most, cause I never feel like I can do the F-117 aesthetic justice like this, as the craft itself is almost like an unrendered polygon, with a lot of flat and sharp edges. I'm starting to gain more confidence though, as this turned out better than I hoped!
Gonna also be using this as a template for a bio sheet as wel...

A piece with Drake in the works!
I love Drake, and want to draw him more, but I always dread working on him, as he's easily one of the most detail-intensive characters in my roster, and I never seem to feel like I do the aesthetic of the F-117 any justice anytime I do him up.
Hey all! Your boy is alive, the past month has just been unrelenting - back-to-back exercises, trying to prepare for certifications and taking care of other duties I don't know why they'd pick me for. I've found a little time to work on things in between, and been trying to get them up to a stage where they're presentable here. Some of which we will see soon.
I will push out April's rewa...
"No deal"
Shit's about to get spicy!
And apologies for the slowness on my end, been hitting me back to back with things non stop on my end. I'm foreseeing things will come down in a few weeks though.
Had a sketch for this sitting on the burner for a minute, but spur of the moment, decided to just finish up and thought it would make for an ideal mother's day or Mayternity pic for next month.
Here, we've got Shandra, set some time after her "Henhouse" pic, at some secret location, getting set to deliver her last contracted clutch.
And here it comes out of the blue! A new page from Ren! Here, it looks like Shandra's having a word with her captors, though her options do not look so good right now!
EDIT - Also noticed a few errors. Will address before Public release.
Another lil something in the works, we should be seeing the final product soon!

Been a hot minute since we've seen Connie, thought it was proper to give her a new 2023 look! There will be a profile version complete with bio soon!

Poor Bender's gotta contend with the reactivated PlanEx ship's upgraded chassis!
It was a slog, been busy with shit, but it got done! It was fun trying to imitate the style of the show here! Fry, Leela, Bender and Scruffy were relatively easy to pull off, but ah, I had to take liberties with the PlanEx ship. x3
EDIT
Testing something to get back at those thieves at Kemono Party...
Oh hey! I'm alive! In yet another block, but I've been binge-watching Futurama lately and... Well, y'all can see where this is going! Stay tuned for the full image!
2023-02-22 06:23:29 +0000 UTC View PostI think it goes without saying that your pledges have all been processed, and I've sent the rewards packs out, including to those who have pledged a Tier 2 pledge without selecting a tier.
Once again people, thank you very much for your support and your patience with me.
Now, this also extends to recent and future patrons - I send the rewards out monthly, and I try to get them out...

Got a new something in the works for my F-23A, Connie! Quite possibly a bio sheet or a new Turbulence mag cover!

Happy 2023 y'all! What better way to start the year off with a piece of fanart for a not-so-memorable movie only 90s kids may really remember? lol
Not the best Don Bluth movie, but certainly not the worst either. As much as I liked it as a kid, as an adult, I had mostly forgotten that Pebble and the Penguin existed, but it's because of videos from the Nostalgia Critic that have reminded ...
Pledges have been processed and last month's rewards pack has been sent out!
I've gotten messages before in the past from $5+ patrons that they were not receiving content. After a little research, I find that these patrons entered a custom pledge while not subscribing to a specific Tier, which I have been using the filter for in who to send the rewards out to. This time, I went based on...
So, after my friend, A_Drunk_Dragon uploaded an image of his lovely XB-70 Valkyrie girl, Pandora, I suddenly got an urge to do this up, featuring the two lovely aero Queens having a saucy moment together! Though, I may do a followup of this eventually. We shall see! <.<

Took a moment, but it's finished up! A lot of the delays came from messing around with the lighting.
Mama Blackbird making a pass through the henhouse of an undisclosed location, where she meets with the other expectant frames, a few of whom she may recognize! We'll also probably seeing this Raptor and Eagle again in the future too!

Had this in the works a while, but I thought it would be fun to have more preggo Shandra for the fun of it, entering a so-called on-post "Hen-house", where other expectant frames would reside until they deliver. :3
This one is coming along rather quickly, should be done very soon!
This is another page I've had on the burner since my deployment, and wasn't able to find the energy and such to work on it, but I feel it's been sitting long enough. This also may be going up earlier as well. I also have a page for North Rising in the works as well, so stay tuned for that one!

Another surprise piece I've been working off to the side, featuring Ren! This one may be going public a little sooner than usual! Sorry I didn't have any Halloween-themed images planned, I know some of you do wanna see a follow-up to my Aliens-themed "New Blood", but we won't be waiting until the next Halloween for that one, I'll see about getting something done up and ready soon on that!
