A fun little continuation of KAITO’s polycule messing with him XD

[Wip]: February 2023 WETA illustration

This upcoming week will be crazy for me, so I doubt I’ll have this (and the V-Chibi illustration) completed before the 1st - so I’m sharing this here for now :’)👍

Oh boy, my google search history was interesting. Lol

[Exclusive Access]: February 2023 VOCALOID Illustration

A more elaborate version of the last panel of Kaito’s birthday comic :)💙

[Edit]: had to replace the images, there was an obvious mark I didn’t catch the first time 😅

[WIP]: February 2023 Vocaloid illustration

To be honest this  three-person pose gave me a lot of trouble.. but after several hours or wrangling with it I think it looks decent.. for now.. I tried my best 🥹👍

KAITO’s outfit is from an anniversary MV called “I Skip Love” by Kid-P on YouTube! It has some suggestive illustrations so at the last minute I decided it would suit this scenario 😊💙

[Early Access]: KAITO’s Birthday comic

I managed to finish it within a week from the period of days that are considered KAITO’s birthday! (February 15-17). The reason his birthdays fall on different days is because the 17th was his original release date, while his only major update (V3, in this comic), falls on the 15th.  


Because these dates are so close, the 15th-17th (and sometimes the 14th), are considered KAITO’s birthday. 😊💙

It has been almost a year since I discovered my love for KAITO ...

I don’t want to spoil much, so I’m just showing the first three panels here - he’s very happy and silly as usual :) 💙🙏

[unfinished]: January 2023 Illustration

I have come to the realization that I’ve bitten off more than I can chew.. 😅

I fully rendered the four characters here, but left the background as Lineart since it would take a lot of time and energy to fully color in, something that my current time and physical stamina cannot support, unfortunately.

So, I decided it would be best to post this as a partially completed illustration, since it is already very detailed.

Because of how insane my school schedule and prep...

It will come out sometime this week. Sorry, school and other projects caught up to me..😅

Thank you for your patience 😭🙏

[Poll]: February WETA (OC) illustration

So the WETA-VOCALOID illustration for February 2023 will be sort of a comic-illustration style. It will consist of 2 separate (suggestive & romantic) illustrations - one Vocaloid, one with my OCs Tsubaki & Pepero.

The gist is, the first illustration will be a group pose with: Gakupo, MEIKO, and Luka basically cuddling and “teasing” Kaito. Pepero and Tsubaki see this, and decide to create their own.

Poll Question:

Would you want the Tsubaki x Pe...

[Early Access]: Luka Birthday comic! 💖

Omg this was so labor intensive to make. But the end result is really worth it, I’m happy with how these panels turned out, especially since I drew a more action-based scene.

It’s kind of now a running gag with Kaito getting bodied in the other Cryptonloids’ birthday comics 😂

I’ve also started adding my watermark on the Instagram version, in case people try to repost and don’t credit me. These take a lot of time and energy to make, after all :’)

[Wip]: Luka Birthday comic

A comic with some elements I’m not accustomed to drawing - action! Some panels took a few tries to look “right”, or flow well-

For those not familiar - Luka’s item is tuna! 🐟So this one will be focused on it, in a way :)

[WIP] January’s WETA-Vocaloid illustration!

This is a combined illustration, usually I have one Vocaloid illustration and one We Exist! (OC) illustration. But since school has started I’m combining projects into one to make it easier to keep track of projects. And also to push my artistic limits :)

[Exclusive Access]: January Chibi illustration

Sledding! Rin and Len are having a blast.. it looks like poor Kaito wants to get off. XD❄️

These outfits are actually modules from a rhythm game called Project Diva! They have unique names - 

Rin: “Kagamine Rin Christmas”

Len: “Ice Fog”

Kaito: “Diamond Dust”

(Second Slide):

Luka: “Megurine Luka Christmas” (Typing this, I just realized she has another winter module, not pictured here: “Eternal White”).

Meiko: ...

[Exclusive Access]: December 2022 Vocaloid Illustration

This is the first time I’ve drawn the Wonderlands x Showtime group, all of their detailed costumes at once. WxS is a unit within Project Sekai, a mobile rhythm game with card-based stories (according to my observation). The Vocaloids each exist in different units (aka “Sekais”), where they have different outfits and personalities that reflect their unit. WxS is a cheerful, entertainment based unit and these colorful, elaborate costumes reflect that.

I pulled several reference...

[Announcement/Poll]: January 2023 WETA-VOCALOID illustration prompt

Ok I’ll make this quick - these days I’ve been caught in this paralyzing cycle of exhaustion (end of year burnout, most likely), so December 2022’s Vocaloid illustration will be posted in January. I deeply apologize for this delay, as I did not foresee this level of burnout from doing more paid work during the holidays. (I still have some commissions I need to finish). 🙏

For January 2023 and going forward I’ve decided to combine my WETA (OC) illustration and VOCALOID ...

[Semi-Early Access]: Rin & Len Birthday Comic

I just had to finish it. Rin & Len are two of the most popular Vocaloids so I had to draw a comics for their birthday. 🧡💛

I also chose V1 Kaito for this cause he’s more innocent and gullible. (In my headcanon).

Currently bogged down on school prep and commissions at the same time. Thank you for your patience while I try and sort this out. I really, truly appreciate it. I’m trying my best 😭🙏

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it! 🎄🌟

[WIP]: part of an upcoming birthday comic

This one will not be complete in time for a full week early access, due to the date (December 27). But it will be available in high resolution on here when it’s done. Full, high resolution versions are only seen here. 😁

Been super busy with commissions. Pink Cherry tier, I will try to get the detailed Vocaloid illustration up by the end of this month. I am also thinking what to do for January illustrations. I want them to be winter themed since January is one of the last winter mon...

[COMISSION PRICES]

These are my finalized commission prices - I spent a while deliberating what prices would be fair for both customer and artist, and these are the prices I’m keeping.

New benefit - Patrons get a discount based on the largest amount you have pledged! If you pledged $5USD/mo, you will get $5 off of your total commission price, and so on.

I know maybe some of you pledged $10/mo at some point, so if you request a commission in the future, the $10 d...

Nothing like a cuddle buddy to help you recharge! This was physically painful to finish.. all the details. 🥹👍

$69 Couple’s Comissions?

I may be thinking of opening one or two slots during the holidays for a special $69 (USD) full-body, fully rendered couple’s commission. It can consist of two fictional characters interacting, or your OCs (no real people at the moment, since I’m not comfortable with it 😅).

It will include an additional (optional) POV shot within the drawing for no extra cost. Payment on PayPal, since it’s the only direct payment system I have right now.

Normally, a full body, ...

I don’t want to spoil too much. So I’ll show just this much for now. :)

[EARLY ACCESS]: The Kitty Bites Back.

There was this ”intrusive thoughts” trend going around where partners would have the sudden thought to gently take a big bite of their partner’s cheek.. and this idea was born 😂. 


I already headcanon that Kaito would have a very strong bite (from eating a lot of cold ice cream!), so he would bite Gakupo several times more in retaliation.. did Gakupo secretly enjoy it?  xD💜

[EXCLUSIVE ACCESS]: December 2022 VOCALOID Chibi illustration

This one is more elaborate, since it’s a Christmas themed piece! I enjoyed drawing all the little details 😁❤️

The wrapping of the presents are color coded to represent the receiver, and the ribbon/bow ties and stickers on them indicate the giver. 😉🎁

[Poll]: December 2022 WETA illustration prompt

For December’s OC illustration, I wanted to draw Tsubaki “riding” Pepero (get it? 😂) And you get to decide which outfit theme they will be wearing! Keep in mind that Tsubaki’s outift may be more visible due to the pose.

Ths illustration is based on a WIP (see attached files) of a TsuPero comic I plan to post on r/RoleReversal, with the illustration being a more elaborate take on the punchline.

What should the outfit theme be?:

[EARLY ACCESS]: Utatane Piko’s Birthday 🤍

A discontinued VOCALOID with a goofy but charming design.. Utatane PIKO is often mistaken for a girl 😂

I drew Kaito’s V1 (his first version) for this, since I headcanon  V1 to be more childlike and innocent than V3 (the version I usually draw).

I really wanted to finish this at least a week before his actual birthday, December 8. Hiyama Kiyoteru and Kaai Yuki (the glasses man and little girl in the last panel), have birthdays on December 4 so I included them here. ...

[Sneak peek]: A small portion of December’s Vocaloid illustration

For now it’s just this small part I’m showing, since it’s also a bigger illustration. This upcoming month’s illustrations are more elaborate and I’m excited to finish and share them - even if they may take a while, since they’re more detailed! 😁❤️

This is its own separate post since it’s a Pink Cherry tier illustration, and it wouldn’t really make sense to tease it on lower tiers that won’t have exclusive access to it 😅. I’m still figuring this part out. View Post

[Sneak Peek]: Some upcoming projects I worked on 🎄

The colored sneak peek will be December’s Chibi illustration! It’s a bit bigger and more elaborate than what I usually create for the monthly illustration, so I’m excited to show it what it’s done. 😁

The second one is supposed to be another birthday comic, but I have yet to know if it’ll be finished in time. As usual, I seem to have bit off more than I can chew 😅👍

I hope everyone is having a nice holiday season! 😊❤️

[EXCLUSIVE ACCESS]: November 2022 VOCALOID Illustration/Comic

There is a popular mobile game called Project SekaI: Colorful Stage! where the Crypton Vocaloids are featured. Within each group (“sekai”/world), each VOCALOID has a different appearance, character dynamic, and personality that reflects the sekai they’re in.

I’ve always wanted to draw Vivid Bad Squad (top 2 panels) and Leo/ Need (Bottom 2) Kaito! In this comic I wanted to show the difference in character dynamic between the Kaito and MEIKO of those respective Sekais. In VBS...
