News and updates for April 2016

Hey Everybody!

First an apology for the lack of activity this last two weeks, I came down with a pretty bad bug and am still recovering a little bit.

Well this month of April I got a couple new surprises and projects underway.

New Blog and Website construction.

So I went and got myself a domain name on wordpress and am now on the path to building my very own website. It's a slow start, but I am having alot of fun learning as I go. Come check out the site and keep up to date with my new art blog as I share news and art about me going about building a website.

April sketchbook comin in soon.

Got a bunch of new sketches for you all to look at and in the next month I will be building a dedicated sketchbook gallery on my new website.

Pic of the month for April 2016 is up and awesome!

For the moment I will be featuring pic of the months exclusively on Patreon, however I have also decided to post a few previous pics on DA and my new website every other month or so. The pic I have up now is a completed commission for VeXeDZERO, who will be posting it at the end of the month. He has a great art page as well as a patreon account, check his stuff out as soon as you can.

An apology to DA

It has come to my attention that some people on Deviant Art are not happy due to the lack of activity on my page or that I have mostly just been posting sketches and promos. It was never my intention to alienate anyone on that site and I am sincerely sorry to anyone who feels ousted. Please understand that I am trying to make a living as an illustrator and have to limit my works either due to time constraints or privacy agreements with contracted clients. I will try to get more content up and running for you as soon as I can, but please understand that I am truly alone on this one and my rent has to be a priority. If it wasn't for all of you taking an interest in my art, I never would have built the confidence to attempt these wonderful projects before in the past. I love you all and hope that you will stay tuned.

Love always Shaun the Comicsmith.
