Came back from Archcon so it's been mostly recovering from that, but here's what I worked on the past week!
I did get sick today, though, so I'm going to try to take it easy this week. Updates will continue on December 9.

Commissions: Focusing mostly on the stuff that has deadlines in December, but I'm picking away at the larger projects too. This week's progress as follows:

Writing Updates:
- Doesn't look like I'll get Krampusnacht done by actual Krampusnacht. :(
- BUT DigitalPopsicle has updated me on the cover for Milk and Honey and it is, barring some last-minute adjustments, DONE! I'll hopefully be posting Milk And Honey next month so stay tuned!

Commissions are officially closed for the month while I try to clear out my queue, but I think I'll open up with a sale when I finish everything!

Also I may not have announced it last time, but all my current commissions are going to be delayed by probably another month added to the time I'll need to take off to rest. This means most commissions are moved to finishing September or later.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience!

- Nikolai refs. This is technically a 'sona of mine so it's a little weird for me to have a nude ref up but there's also that degree of separation that helps a little, so why not. I hope to do some art with him in the future.
- Knoell refs. Completely overhauled his design so I had to do this. I didn't draw his weird long tongue this time but I assure you he can still do that.
- Marzi refs. My boy has stopped dyeing his hair that weird brown, and gotten some new clothes! They technically cover more skin but somehow *feel* more revealing.
- Barbie/Ken Mugshot YCH (OC) for  arellasmercy (discord)
