I've been helping a friend illustrate his book! (Patreon)

Hi All!
I wanted to share with you something I've been working on!
A friend of mine commissioned me to make some illustrations for his book. I don't normally do commissions. They take up a lot of my time and there's just not enough hours in the day for a day job, webcomics, a social life, and commissions...
But the Author is a really good friend of mine, and I was really intrigued by the project, so I wanted to do it. He and I worked out a trade. He's got some experience with publishing, and he's going to help me prep my comic for publishing and help me fix some of the copy on my website. You know how I am with spelling errors....
I'm not posting these on my other socials. I just wanted to share my thoughts with you here on Patreon. These are pretty spoiler heavy for the book. So I wanted to make sure I got author's permission before I shared them with you guys. :)
The book is called The Blue Path. You can read it for free on the Royal Road: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/42101/the-blue-path-step-1
The book is fiction, taking place in a fantasy VR game.
(spoilers ahead!)
I was commissioned to illustrate the gods in the VR world.
Alex had some fun descriptions and I had a lot of fun working on these.
Ledgess: Cool hippy surfer dog. I tried to make him look cute compared to the others.
Mout: God that looks like the moon and a biblical angel. Also he's a plane??? I did my best. This one was wild.
Triyya: Probably my favorite description: 3 headed snake god. One wears glasses, one wears a monocle. The other has a silly hat.
Xieter - dragon god of contradictions. The character is supposed to be arrogant. I hope I captured him.
Zayder - A god of decay. He asked if I could make something scary. I told him I got this.
I hope you like seeing a little behind the scenes of what I've been working on. I have a few more non-comic illustrations I can share with you guys in the coming days.
Please enjoy the rest of your day!
Talk to you soon!
