Patreon launched!

After many, many years of creating commercial art, I want to start focusing on my own art. And maybe I also want that tiny little bit of security of not being 100% dependent on commissioned work: although working from home is a save way to work in times of Corona, I've lost at least one big project with a monthly load of work due to the crisis.

But for this I need a little bit of support: if you like my art and want to support me, please become my patron. I will be very, very grateful. The more support I get, the more art and videos I can create without having to worry about how to feed my family. I know, this sounds very cliché, but it really is that simple (unfortunately).

What will I create?
I will create small series of artworks that will be somehow connected: illustrations, sketches and concept art pieces, imagining new worlds and stories. There will be a lot of room for diversity and for breaking stereotypes.

Having many, many years of experience as a pen&paper roleplayer and having worked as the art director of The Dark Eye / Das Schwarze Auge, the settings will hopefully feel like worlds in which you'd like to play a character and/or invent your own adventures.

I am also thinking about creating my own tokens that could be used when playing Magic the Gathering.

How does it work?
You'll choose a tier and after being charged, you'll get access to the tier's Patreon posts which contain all the material or links to the material you've pledged for.

Yes! This means that you'll get all the rewards from the previous months too! Except the early access of course - I haven't invented a time machine yet and most likely will never do (to my own disappointment).

In the future, there might be an additional tier with stickers, prints and/or postcards sent to your address (shipping costs included). Please let me know if you'd be interested in such a tier.
