October 2024 Patron Sketches

Wednesday, December 4th, 2024

I ended up doing these guys a little late for the inevitable holiday cold reasons, but I had a really fun mix of prompts this time, at least!

7 sketch cards by Amy Crook in various media

  • Nick asked for “kissmas” after some book he likes, and gets the blorbos from my upcoming Goblin Market book instead. Sorry not sorry.
  • Andria wanted a confused jack-o-lantern.
  • Eric asked for “The Ballad” and I had fun fading this out on the left like the world in Coraline when she tries to walk away and instead walks around. (sold)
  • Kelly wanted hellfire, so I painted some fun flames and added a few lost souls for ambience. (sold)
  • SaraBeth asked for Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors, and I went for the smaller version because it’s just cuter. (sold)
  • Amy B wanted an autumnal Pod, and in autumn all Pod wants is warms.
  • Rebecca W said of course she still loves Pod (who was the cat on that post, iirc) and so I experimented a little with light and form and color for her. (sold)

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.

March 2024 Patreon Sketches

Monday, May 13th, 2024

I wrote a LOT of words last month (over 50K!) on the new Consulting Magic book, so these were a little late, but I got ’em done. Enjoy!

  • Amber asked me to do “the artist in residence” (me) so I went a little ridiculous with it. (sold)
  • Jefferson prompted “barcodes on the brain” and really I don’t know what else you could expect from me. (sold)
  • Nick wanted a baby Chocobo.
  • Amy B said “grumple” which I decided was “grumpy skrunkle” and there he is. (sold)
  • Catherine asked for a Princess Fish.
  • Deandra asked for the Queen Bees from To Hive and to Hold, and I did the more alien-looking one, only I’m just not great at translating them from my brain so you know, don’t take her as canon lol.
  • Kelly wanted a cat + dragon, and gets this draconic kitty. (sold)
  • Eric asked for Cloud Strife in a dress, and, welp, here he is! (sold)

I hope you guys have had a great April and don’t get rained on too much!
