Rat's Saucy Nest
Just some silly picture from our trip. The first few are from Lake Tahoe, where we went checking out the nature and the snow, then gambling and playing at an arcade in one of the casinos on the Nevada side of the lake, sadly we weren’t able to take a picture with them on a roulette table or something.
On our way home we took a short detour to check out Nevada and some of the old mining/Wild West towns, especially Virginia City. On the way we saw some wild horses (last picture), which was all kind of amazing.
It was a lot of fun, and so very fascinating to see all those different climates so close together, especially the (short) drive from the snowy mountains of Lake Tahoe to the barren deserts of Nevada blew my mind. I keep on forgetting how diverse this country is, we saw small Chalets and skitown Hotels like back in Switzerland, huge flashy and exciting Casinos and the tiniest little mining villages right out of an old Western movie, just to drive back home and to see the massive skyline of San Francisco, this time it looked even bigger than usual.
Anyways, no Idea if any of that rambling is actually any interesting to y'all, but I figured since it’s thanks to you that we were able to go, I’d share our experiences with you!
Found the most phallic fountain ever while staying in Lake Tahoe.
Applejack being angry at snow!
Just something quick before my wife and I are gonna drive up to Lake Tahoe in a few hours and spend the weekend there, made possible thanks to the overwhelming success of my Valentine’s Day art pack! A big thanks again to all of you, you’re amazing!
I really miss the snow here, it’s been more or less a year since I saw snow the last time, so I’m especially looking forward to the trip! Can’t wait to get my hands on snow again. <3
I’ll be back Monday next week and will finish my current batch of commissions in that week before starting anything new.
See y'all in a few days!
Someone commissioned me to draw a late christmas/Valentine’s Day gift for their partner, I couldn’t post it here earlier, since I didn’t want to spoil the surprise for the receiver!
Enjoy, it was a lot of fun to draw, I just love lingerie.

It’s okay to post it now, thank you so much for asking before just reposting it, that means a lot!
Remember my friend’s cute little gay gryphon? I’ve drawn a quick colored sketch for him again and thought I’ll share it with you guys too, since you seemed to like the last one!
Enjoy!

To be honest, I’m not sure why you’re complaining to me, I just published a pack that you can get for free. And the other Valentine’s Day pack I see floating around from Atryl and co is also Pay What You Want. I think a big part of artists and customers alike enjoy this great distribution model and I’m sure it’s becoming more popular with each successful instance!
Not to mention that I post 95% (about 100 pictures last year) of my art here for everybody to see for free.
And that’s all I have to say about this topic in public, I don’t wanna spam my blog with boring text posts.

I’m glad you enjoyed the picture set! And thanks for your feedback, it’s appreciated.
The thing that’s on the do-not-post list on derpybooru is an imageset I’ve drawn as a very personal thank you for everyone who donated for my wedding last autumn. I promised those people a thank you gift in return and part of that gift was, that it’s something exclusive just for them. I didn’t make this decision to get more money, but to thank those wonderful people for their support back then and I fully stand behind this decision.
I’ve also drawn art for the Playpony and the Hooves and Holly pack, both are on a DNP list, I believe. But I was one of many artists involved and organized neither of those artpacks and had no final say in their distribution, in fact I voted for a Pay What You Want distribution for Hooves and Holly and gave away some Playpony issues to people who donated to me.
Feel free to come off anon if you’d like to have a more indepth and private conversation about the topic, though.

It’s pay what you want, so you decide how much it’s worth to you! I plan on going to a romantic getaway weekend with my wife, and hopefully this pack can help pay for it.
I worked on it hard the last two weeks and tried to come up with something a lot of people will enjoy. There are 6 main pictures, each picture has at least 2 other edits. There’s a separate folder in the archive for SFW pictures and one for futa (so if you don’t like futa, you’ll never have to see it!) 23 pictures in total in ultra high resolution.
If you don’t have any money to spare or you’re just not the type who pays for something like that, don’t worry! You can just enter 0 as the amount and you’ll get the link to the pack.
Please wait a couple of days before uploading the pack somewhere else, thank you!
If it ends up being successful, I’m gonna draw Celestia and Luna in Valentine’s Day gear, too!
I hope you’ll like it! Enjoy!
Reblogging for the day crowd! Thanks so incredibly much to everybody who already downloaded it! The support is just overwhelming.

Why can we see her nipples?
Because it’s freezing.
ehehehe. I’m so funny.
(And because I wanted to draw them, obviously.)
Nipple-free version is on my deviantart.
Oh my god, you guys are amazing. I need to draw something for that occasion as soon as I’m finished with my current batch of commissions!
Thank you so much to all of you for your interest in my art, I’m overwhelmed.
You may remember my Elsa sketch from way back, I was finally able to finish it for Valentine’s Day! I’m so in love with her.
My first try on humans in a long while.
Enjoy!
