Dark Magician Girl's present.

Hey guys! Man, it's good to be back!
I missed drawing a lot ; _ ;
My pen breaking set me back a whole week, however I will do my best to make up for the lost time, even if we have fewer artworks this month u.u
Anyway, DMG, the winner for character art poll is finally complete!
The hair was tough, as I was torn between being faithful to the spiky and stiff style of the original or doing it in my style. I ultimately went with the latter and  I have to say that I think t turned ...

IMPORTANT: Tablet pen is busted. u.u

Hey guys, I have some bad news; my tablet pen is busted.
it may have some sensor issue since it sometimes fail to detect pressure or the pressure is so small that the stroke is nearly invisible.
I ordered a replacement already (RIP wallet) but it will get to me by November 20th.

I attached a video (follow the link because the embed is not working as usual) so you can check how much pressure I need to put on each stroke to get it to the thickness I want.

Progress on DMG (character art poll)

Hey guys! it's time for some progress on character art poll winner; Dark Magician Girl.
Yep, that character that has more hent@i than the entire hololive universe combined x3
Regardless, her victory is undisputed, so here's le rough(crotch focus and foreshortening practice), le body sketch (3 polishing passes. The hair was not fun, Yugioh hair is horrid, so I drew it the way I do hair, not very faithful, I know x3) and le clothes sketch (pantsu present is something I've been wanting to ...

Nymph presenting.

Series art poll winner Nymph is finally complete! :3
This is the 1st time the character I root for during poll votes actually won xD
I'm not big on this series (it's so weird  x3) but out of all the characters, Nymph is certainly my favorite, so I'm glad I had the chance to work on her.
For the concept, I've been wanting to try the "train handrail ass focus" which is very popular with Japanese artists. Nymph has a great posterior so I decided to capitalize on that :9
Overall ...

Hey guys!
you voted, I deliver :3
it's time for some progress on the winner for series art poll; Nymph!
Initially i wanted to do a tease with pantsu reveal but then i remembered this was a NSFW entry, so i did away with the pantsu. bare ass is unsafe enough, right ¬u¬

Barbara.

Hey guys!  Chef's rec is now complete!
I really like this character and took this one opportunity I have to draw something for myself.
I wanted to work on a crotch focus concept for a while with a bit of perspective so I could emphasize the thighs and add plenty of detail to her pantsu.
Barb does wear panties under her skirt, so I decided to go for this approach instead of the usual no-pan fanart which is very prevalent nowadays, although if I have time, I'll do a no pan version...

Guess what?
More Vert! :3
Yes, our dedicated #1 fan has more Berts to commission, so I hope you guys like her.
I know I'm slowly falling for her every time she's commissioned x3
As you might have noticed, the client consistently wants this angle and pose for most of his Berts x3 changed things up a bit so it looks fresher than the usual requested POV tho.
anyway, here's le rough (early bg grid for positioning) le body sketch (2 polishing passes)

Artwork variant batch.

Hey guys!
thanks so much for your warm feedback on the recent artworks. I really appreciate it and I'm glad you like my work so much! *bows*
As promised here's the Histoire variant for those who would prefer a regular artwork instead of a daki preview, as well as a couple more variants I owed you. Namely Green Heart's jizzshot variant and Z23 no-pan. (added an embarrassed variant too because why not? :3)
Apologies if you feel this month has been a bit slow, but it's quite the contrar...

Histoire dakimakura (Side A)

Histy daki is finally complete! :3
Been a while since I had the chance to work on her. I really like her design~
The client gave me a good opportunity to refresh the last artwork I did of her.
She has been getting a lot of good feedback as well so I may do a close up crop so it can also double as a regular artwork. This variant will be a Patreon exclusive :)
Overall I'm extremely happy and pleased with results! Hope you guys like it too! :D

Sango teases.

Hey guys, this is a little something I made as a way to test how "Fast commissions" will look like and how much time they take. (refer to September's monthly report in case you missed this)
In short, this sketch took me 1 day and compared to a full polished artwork it's rather simple and lacks a detailed background. Fast comms are indeed, very fast as you can see x3

Anyway, hope you guys like this small doodle. Do give me your thoughts about it.

Kaguya's outing.

Best Yamai twin comm is finally done! :3
This was lots of fun, been a while since I got to work on a Date a live character~
I was given free range on the outfit and naturally I decided to go for her school uniform, which design is pretty great IMO, no pantsu this time, mostly due to the pose and also because I wanted to tease for once ¬u¬
Overall, I'm extremely happy and pleased with results! Hope you guys like it too! :D

Paizuri, The Reckoning (Part 1)

Jesus Christ.  
This has been one of the most challenging and laborious artworks I've ever done. This is technically 5 artworks in one; 5 different characters each with their set of specifics and of course, the male components. I am very relieved and happy I managed to do this in about 5 days (Apologies for the delay btw. I underestimated just how much work this was.)
I will postpone part 2 for later since I want to draw some regular stuff, so I don't kill my wrist or the schedule...

Hey guys, time for another lood comm~
this time it's a group paizuri artwork which I totally don't regret accepting :3
well, to be fair, my wrist was better and I didn't have a backlog then so x3
in any case, this is gonna be done in 2 parts, 5 characters for part 1 and the other 5 for part 2. Both are gonna be in the same canvas at the end but I will also post the separate versions. This essentially counts as 2 artworks, so please bear with me while I finish it.
