….and I’ve brought some footage from my trip to the Tarsin Desert! Got to meet Jacind and everything.

All right, so it was more like the badlands of southern Alberta, specifically Drumheller, but close enough. Tim was wild and crazy enough to pack a couple of costumes along on holiday because, again, we’re both really, really bad at taking breaks, and we took a four hour jaunt across the monotonous prairie landscape to where things get interesting and dinosaur bones are a’plenty. There are more shots of his Jacind cosplay and his Three-Toe Huadiv (minor character from Horizon Zero Dawn) that’ll be appearing over on his Instagram and Facebook (and his DeviantArt - TimmCosplay !) but for now, check these out and go give 'em some love: 

  

I've been getting a bunch of NSFW commissions in the last batch, and it's leading to some changes (for the better - more content for less cost) on my Patreon. If you've got feedback, I'm open to it - www.patreon.com/posts/tier-cha…

If you watch my scraps, you've probably seen (most of) these already. I started integrating a bit of community interaction with my Patreon starting back in January. It's been a busy year with trying to get all of my creative endeavours to balance out, but I'm getting the hang of it enough that I wanted to mention the whole thing here. Essentially every month I have a post in the $5 tier called a Suggest-A-Sketch post. If you're pledging at least $5 a month, you can suggest what I should draw during the next month for those times when I have an urge to doodle but I'm not sure what to doodle (and I have a lot of those moments!). In general, there's no guarantee that I can do all of the ideas suggested, but I certainly try my hardest to. So far with the awesome handful of people I've had giving me ideas, I've been getting 100% completion.

With any luck, this'll slowly get my acclimatized to the idea of doing commissions in the future. I'm still pretty nervous about those, but this helps to build my confidence under controlled circumstances.

It's been a long haul, but the hiatus is over! Back to the show. Prophecy of the Circle is live once again!

If you're curious about the process, my Patreon and the Prophecy of the Circle website both have some neat public posts with photos that Tim and I took while I was busy rebuilding.

And now, because it's deserved: thanks once again to Pezwolf and Wolfcry for your donations of guest art during the break! They're forever immortalized over in their own part of the homepage's Archives section, for those who missed it and want to take a look.

It's good to be back and back on my feet. Thanks also to everyone who stuck around to wait for me and to cheer me on. I hope you enjoy the rest of the story!
