December 2024 Sketch Cards

Tuesday, January 28th, 2025

How is January almost over? The passage of time is a continued problem. I have two! Two sets of sketch cards for you! Ah-ah-ah-aah! [insert Count von Count here]

6 moon phase sketch cards by Amy Crook

Above, I did a set of six moon phases because I always need extras for my patreon goodie packets. These were fun to experiment with the clouds on each, so they feel connected but not too samey.

6 sketch cards by Amy Crook

Here are everyone’s actual sketch requests from last month! And that wraps up the whole year, which is wild.

  • Jefferson asked for ninja espresso and got an espresso ninja (sold)
  • Rebecca S wanted a hockey boy and I paid homage to her team, the Krakens (sold)
  • Amy B asked for a skunk
  • SaraBeth wanted flight or freedom, and apparently my brain went the easy route with this bird escaping its cage (sold)
  • Eric asked for “Captain Negasonic Human Torch” because he’s a troll, but I had fun with it
  • Kelly wanted a goth to interpret “red” so of course it’s bloody bones (sold)

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)
