November goodie bag sticker (Patreon)

Hi guys! I'm bringing you freshly brewed sticker for this month's goodie bags and behind the scenes warmup and thumb-nailing session in preparation for this month's theme - "Forbidden desire"

The theme will be depicting a forbidden mingling between the righteous knight and a demonic cultist~ You have already seen a little snipped of it when I ran a poll some days ago, now you can see the rest of the sketchy thumbnails and below - the ideas I went with for the sticker.

"Kneef before the sword" is a direct translation of a meme polish saying "Klękaj do miecza" as a sort of a crude innuendo demanding of someone to blow you. I really wanted both of the languages to be there so I went with it~

But the road to the final render wasn't easy, and I went through all stages of grief before I actually landed on a one that pleased me. so here's a little compilation of some unused pages.

Even though I loved the thin slits in the helmet from the original design - I really wanted just a part of Patrick's face being visible in the end design so I redesigned the helmet a bit. Here's the final render before the major edits in digital:

And here's the final mockup of the sticker. The finish will be matte with a holograpgic effect on the text, sparkles and the border. I'm so happy with the end result! Can't wait for the stickers to finally arrive~
