Patrons have had this one for awhile, so it's time to release Tekra's color swatch to the wild.
Patrons, catch this month's sketch, and think about what you'd like for the next one: https://www.patreon.com/posts/sketc.....month-15295975
I intend to post all our Patrons-only stuff out here eventually, but
I'm falling somewhat behind. And there's no way I can catch up on posting the daily artifacts. Too much art, and too many platforms.

I was wondering if you were going to post this. I guess I'd be foolish to ask if there are any other versions of this ref. ;3
*ahem* As far as the art-ifacts go, I have some suggestions that could help in the long run, but won't be much easier. You can either stop posting art-ifacts on Patreon until the pervious postings are on the other platforms, then resume the art-ifacts on Patreon once caught up. You could stop posting on Inkbunny except for GNS and Prelude updates. Or, get rid of your Inkbunny account entirely.
Allow me to explain those last two ideas. If I am to understand that you are trying to maintain some kind of positive image outside of the current readerbase (which I assume is the case since you don't ever post any kind of lewds anymore), then having something as controversial as Inkbunny to your name could stir up trouble in the future. I know that you wouldn't want to cut off another venue of info for potential new readers, but having as many accounts as you do is proving to be a challenge for you and getting rid of the one with the most stigma could be beneficial.
In any case, just thought I'd share my quickly-drawn up thoughts on the matter. However you decide to share your content from Patreon, I can't wait to see what else you decide to share. X3

Please don't encourage artists to leave Inkbunny. Setting aside the questionable premise that the way to deal with stigma is to bow to it, there are a lot of good reasons to use IB, both as an artist and a fan. One big one is that you can share and enjoy art like this at its original size and quality, rather than only seeing them resized and recompressed. It'd be a big shame to lose that for Dreamkeepers, especially given the resolutions some of the concept art is at.
For example, this image was 2,850 KB 2,987px × 2,648px to start with, but here it's been shrunk to 138 KB 1,280px × 1,135px. If you view the original over on Inkbunny, I think the difference shows - compare the rectangle edges and sketch-lines on the ears, for a start. If that doesn't convince you, try the male (compare) and female (compare) cast reference turnarounds. [Click the images for full size.]
It's also something of an insurance policy. I remember a decade or so back when a bunch of artists were thrown out of y!Gallery and SheezyArt for being too furry and too disreputably adult-rated respectively, and flocked to a scrappy young startup called FA. Those predecessor sites no longer exist, along with many other such galleries founded both before and after FA. That's one reason multi-site uploaders exist - so you can spread your bets.
