tony is full-service
...worried that if i tag "tony mchenry jr" that indicates i may eventually may need a tag for "tony mchenry sr" and you know what i'm still going with it, i'll just leave that hanging over everyone's heads forever

This is a version of the recent Joe/Joyce artwork that I drew in late 2023! This is the original version, with hand OVER the sweatervest, Joe in his purple luau shirt, and Joyce in boots! I never inked or colored it, and it sat on my computer like this for a while as Hard Drive Smut #482.
I also had a hand-under-sweatervest version, but still with the boots and luau shirt. (see above)
At so...

There! I did the airbrushing! I almost didn't, because, like, I dunno, the "simple shading" version looked fine. Even Maggie was like "the sharper one looks better" so whatever. But I did it! It's airbrushed!

Took a detour on the way from Simple Shading to Airbrushed this morning, if by "detour" I mean "uh this took all morning and way longer than just airbrushing." That's right, it's an animated gif. Despite all the crazy lighting! I made it work!
and now i've.... got absolutely nothing else done yet today

For the regular comic-style "simple shading" pass, I used the same dark room palette as the scene in the strip used. Dark blue overlay, with some light blue highlights!

Sometimes when you're coloring you find things you still gotta fix -- for example, as I started to color in the argyle pattern on Joyce's sweatervest, I realized it wasn't actually long enough to fit it! And so more folds get tossed in.

Yup, those are sure inks! Some small fixes. Joyce's shins and arms are a little longer. Remembered to put that laptop back there.

a little TOO refined, those seem almost ink-ish

Saw the cropped thumbnail for the original version of this art pass up my dash and thought... let's update that Dorothy face to one a bit more honest with herself
so here y'go

A sort of roughly-finished/unfinished Malaya from my computer. It's hard drive smut #169 and the file data claims it's from 2017, if anyone's keeping track.
...is it still called the cowgirl position if it's a dude, enby, or otherwise doing it, i dunno
i'd like to think so, but i don't wanna take no chances

Back to my bread and butter, which is, as you all know if you've been here long enough, shitposty Ambers.
I don't even finish these most of the time. This is just how we cleanse the palate after a couple Joyces.

Yup! That's some airbrushing.
I should probably start tagging the airbrushed ones.

It's the fan-favorite comic-style simple shading!
well maybe slightly more complex than the typical comic-style shading

When there's plaid, the color fills and colored lines stage is a bit more involved than usual!
gotta map that grid to the wrinkles in the clothing, somehow

While the Book 14 Kickstarter has been taking up almost all of my time the past few days, I've been trying to sneak in some work on the promised redraw of the older Joyce art.
I dunno! None of my pencil gestures are speaking to me so far. I'm not sure what it is. I'm gonna keep trying, though, and you can have a look at two attempts in the meantime. Tell me which one is obviously better, and I'll say NEITHER!!!! Y...

We've got... another 100 active members??? (I'LL say) So I was like, hrm, I should, like, redraw the old reclining Joyce art that helped push this along, maybe, as a thank you? Spitballing. But after pulling up the original file for reference, I was reminded there were pencils under here! So have those while I work on the newer version.
Thanks everybody!

We hit... 1000 active paid memberships? I think right now we're specifically at 1,009. So as a Thank You, here's one of the scarcely few Joyce boobicles from my hard drive. It's from 2017 and is actually hard drive smut drawing #150? And I guess I thought to myself, that's a nice round number, let's draw something special, as a treat. As one does in one's head, celebrating an anniversary hard-drive-filename number to themselves. Like a normal person.
and then i went right back to ...

Realized: hrm if this is Comics Shading, then I should probably un-translucent the glasses into the way they appear in the comic. So here y'go. Comics-style glasses coloring!

And here's the popular, intermediate How I Actually Shade In The Comic Strip Itself simple shading pass! It pops a bit, I think. You know, in a way the airbrushing, well, smooths over .

Here's the colored lines and colored paintfills, as per usual!
yes the pubic hair is still shaped like her noggin hair, because that makes me laugh and i refuse to end running gags no matter how stupid, but i did try a new rendering style on it that makes it look a little pubier
2025-03-30 00:00:07 +0000 UTC View Post
I spent a lot of time un-inking and re-inking a lot because... I felt like I was making the shapes too complex. Needed to be like 20% more cartoony, or it'd start looking like a real-life human with a cartoon face on top. Making the lines a little thicker helped.

Spent so much time trying to figure out what to do with that right leg!
also you can see that at some point i flipped the pencils left-right 'cuz her bangs are swooshing opposite the usual way
