Bonus Apryl

Before I did my more detailed pic of her I was messing around with this one, but decided not to go further with it. Felt the pose and angle were too bland and I could do better if I took my time, and this design was a bit more niche because she only had it in one of her manga one-shots before they really settled on the final versions (like the old proto Naruto/Death Note one-shots, or Yugioh chapter 0). You can see a lot of the final elements were already in place, but they changed the outfit...

Finished trendy office girl (Apryl)

Even when she's not so blatantly showing off the goods, she rarely wears underwear at the office. They didn't think to include it in the dress code, after all

Slight sneak peek

Just need to render the hair and do finishing touches, but wanted to give you guys at least a little early look before the final one goes up. Also including in the initial sketch based off a photo that I then combined with other refs and turned into the character, which is basically my typical process

Vaelena's new dragon tattoos

Here's a turnaround reference sheet for some tattoos I did! They're for Vaelena, one of Ashzari's OCs. They were sort of an update/addition to tattoos I made before for that character, and you can see the old ones in the commission I drew of Vaelena and Sherri frotting in a doorway: Slightly clothed version, 2025-03-29 21:50:56 +0000 UTC View Post

Little updates

Tier Update:
I got rid of the art help related tier the other day since nobody was in it, so figured I'd just ditch it for now. I'd made a channel on the discord server that was only accessible to people if they were in that tier, so I've just opened that channel up to everybody. If you draw and want help or feedback, feel free to throw something in there! Maybe in the future if I build up my patreon following a bit more I'll bring something like that back as a proper tier, but probably be...

Old lifeguards sketch for a pal

A few years ago, back when the Gris swimsuit was trending, I did this sketch privately for a friend of a couple of their OCs based on some jokes we made. Recently got permish to at least show it on patreon now as a little bonus for you guys

Legs up sketch

Working on a new piece that I've been a little indecisive about for the pose. I think I'm going to use a bit of a different pose from this one now, but at the very least I'll put it up here

Khiara pngs

Here are some transparent versions of the fanart I did a while back of Personalami's OC Khiara! I've always loved the look of the character and Personalami's art in general, so I was compelled to draw her. I'd recently gotten their permission to put this art up as stickers on Waifu Loot and had started prepping these files for that, but unfortunately some shake ups happened recently with Waifu Loot and they deleted my account and a bunch of other artists who weren't selling much or still acti...

Some Sticker Pngs

So you may or may not know I recently started selling stickers through Waifu Loot to see how that goes ( https://waifuloot.com/collections/bad-noodle ). To set up the stickers for that I have to make background-less pngs of the pics and clean up the edges real nice, so I figured I'd let you guys have the ones I've done so far in case you'd want them. Maybe you wanna pop em onto some existing background, ...

Oops I made a discord server

So you may have already noticed if/when you got added to it, but I made a bare-bones discord server that any tier will get you in. I was originally resistant to making one because I don't want that kind of responsibility, but it does make some things easier that patreon doesn't do a good job of on its own (and I felt like I needed it to make the new tier work).

Also I made a new tier, "I Can Fix Her," which is for art help. If you're an artist (or aspiring artist) and want me to help y...

Some Megs in Full Quality

I know this fishnet one is popular among my followers and mutuals. Most of it comes from a very good photo reference, and then the hair and face I made up/referenced other things to make it look like Meg. A weird little detail I'm proud of on this one is including those neck folds from turning her head. I think that kind of detail is usually avoided by artists because it can look off, and not suit stylization. It's not perfect but I feel like it manage to look natural, and fits the sort of re...

Sherri and Chance Squirt Set - Full Quality

Since this was something I could just hand over immediately, here ya go.

This is, of course, a very special set for me. I'd decided at the time I would just make the set that I most wanted to make, as well as I could make it, even though I figured it would take a while. It's the most self-indulgent I've gotten, and I think that was reflected in how it turned out, and how well it was received. When I posted the first part of it I had around 2300 followers on Twitter, and over the next m...

What do you people want?

I thought about doing a poll, but let's make this more open ended! I'm curious what you guys are most interested in seeing from me, whether that's preferred OCs of mine, fanart of certain characters, or just pieces focusing on certain poses/body parts/fluids etc. Put your mouth where your money is and reveal your secrets to me (pls)

Sherri's (unfinished) intro comic

Here's another one from back in 2020 when I was just starting out this whole Bad Noodle thing. Originally I'd intended to focus on making comics of my characters, before I drew more pieces and realized that at the pace I was drawing I'd never finish comics of any reasonable length (and if I did, my at style would probably advance so much I'd have to start over). I never even made a proper sketch of the last page of this one, so I can only show the thumbnail doodle of it. Here's the rest of th...

Shelved WIPs and abandoned sketches, OCs, and haircuts

1) First up is a Frieren piece I started in January 2024. I shelved it to focus on commissions because I needed money, and sadly never got back to it, though I still intend to finish it and hope to get to it this year. I like how it looks and it's a bummer to have left it this long. It's based on a photo I really like from Poisonne's Wood Elf set (which might still be somewhere, but I managed to get it from Gumroad before The Purge).

2) Second pic is an Amazon OC I was starting to work...
