Series art poll (June 2019)

Hello again! :D
It's time to decide what series we'll have for our artwork poll for June!

As per usual, here are the rules:
Comment below the name of a series/franchise that you want artwork of and I'll pick one at random.
If there are many duplicates, we'll instead go with the most popular option.
Once we have a winning series, I'll post a poll where you can vote from a pool of characters from said series.

Canon proportions were requested by the client, need more practice with slender bodies, it's pretty hard to get them right x3
Anyway, as you can see Midori is catching her breath after a date with Rosie Palms ;9
Early background sketch for positioning purposes.

Hello guys!

3: Volumes are added to background elements
4: contact shadows are added
5: textures are added
6: water gradient (matching the ambient light we have in mind.)
7: transparency and shadow mapping of water. (reduce opacity and add a darker layer, then desaturate at l...

(UPDATE) New Banner for all my art sites. (Kondo Chiru)

UPDATED: I wasn't digging the way I did clouds and I decided to practice and experiment on them to make the piece look better. Here is the result. I'm very happy how it turned out and this is the way I will draw clouds from now on. Hope you like it! :D

I had this personal project planned for a good while. Sadly I haven't had a slow month to work on this or a very needed update of the Patreon page, so I decided to just work on them as I go.
This time, it's an updated...

Yay! Gear-chan is finally complete! :D
I should have finished this yesterday but our building lost power for the day and I had to wait till morning u.u
In any case, fancy taking a dip with Gear? :3
This was my first time doing a bath background and thankfully it paid off! This is one of my best backgrounds to date. I'm extremely pleased with results, hope you guys like it too!

Important: PSA on the next commission.

Hello guys :3
Heads up, later today I'll be working on Uiharu dakimakura side B which per the client's request, is private. So there will be no WIPs all the way till completion.
I'm making this report so you aren't taken aback by the sudden lack of updates.

Thanks again for your support!

Fun with Ikaruga.

Couldn't think of a backstory for this one xD
I guess the title and the piece itself are self explanatory :3
If Ikaruga-chan happens to be your waifu, then you can let your imagination run wild~
Have fun! :D
More multi-format as you can see, although this commission was specially tough and very time consuming due to the double artwork, separate background and a very in-depth set of specifics. I realized I had been commissioned 2 artworks in one, which is a loophole and shouldn't h...
