June 2024 Patron Sketches

Tuesday, July 30th, 2024

There was a bat in our basement! It appears to have left on its own, but man, what a random ending to the week. Before all that, I spent the day on sketch cards! Everything is watercolor this time around because reasons.

9 sketch cards by Amy Crook

From the top left:

  • Kelly asked for a rainbow kitty
  • Amy B prompted “our big, loud pride in [their] shameful times”
  • SaraBeth prompted “quiet pride”
  • Eric asked for Gonzo
  • Jeff asked for Fozzie Ramone
  • Amber prompted “sidekick wanted!”
  • Andria wanted a subtle bi owl
  • Corinne referred to Goomy day by asking for “slime and rainbows”
  • and Nick asked for a Mandragora from Final Fantasy

There’s actually a 10th card, but it’s a spoiler for the cover of A Flutter of Fae, which is now with my beta readers, with its plot all fixed and some fresh typos for their pleasure of discovery.

Only a 2-day delay due to illness, whew!

From the top left:

November 2023 Patreon Sketches

Monday, March 18th, 2024

We’re catching up! Since patron sketches get done the month after requests, December’s the last of this batch (though January will be ready before these are all posted, lol).

As requested! 😻 There’s two sets, watercolor & ink/marker, so please enjoy both.

  • Jo asked for “something banishing winter gloom with light”
  • Jeff asked for “time shift” and this winter winds blowing the autumn away is the second try (sold)
  • Rebecca W asked for “giant Lapis tiny Lenin” since it often looks that way in pics
  • Rebecca S asked for honeybees! (sold)
  • This was the first try at “time shift” for Jeff, but somehow the ‘Murica overwhelmed the Doppler reference.
  • Next comes my wee monster Andy and “ew mouthpets!” for SaraBeth (sold)
  • Eric wanted “Loth cat Ezra” and got Ezra as a Loth cat, because why not? (sold)
  • Corinne asked, “Is Mikey CAKE?”
  • And finally, Amy B asked for a Christmas vampire and got this charming, trustworthy fellow (sold)

Lots this month! Patreon supporters were engaged or something.

y’all asked for a LOT of cards the month before I went and got covid, dang! I’m late but not outside of September, so I’m going to consider it a win. There’s quite a range of styles this time, because I tended to get 2 done and then have to fuck off and do something else, lol. Enjoy!

  • Corinne wrote a fic where super soldiers in the MCU were also werewolves, and I had to draw chibi werewolf Red skull
  • Amy B asked for petrichor
  • Eric wanted cookies & cream and got ghost Oreos (sold)
  • Amber asked for the 1st day of school (sold)
  • SaraBeth asked for autumn vibes
  • JoVE asked for “ready for summer but it’s raining” (sold)

  • Andria wanted dragon(fruit) shaved ice
  • Nick asked for a Princely Bottom a la Red White & Royal Blue
  • Kelly wanted space! I love painting space cards, ngl. (sold)

And that’s all of them! So many!
