FIRST LESSON pages 18-20 - WIP pencils

Took a while of juggling projects, but I’ve finally got the pencils for these pages done! I’ll be inking and coloring these pretty quick; I’ll knock out a couple more SIRENS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN pages and then I’ll belt out the last three pages of Miranda’s first lesson!

Naughty Pixie Willow

I had the concept in mind for this image of Willow months ago but I kept -urging off actually doing it because I knew it would be a little challenging with the two versions of the arms and getting the lighting right. Overall, I’d say Mission Accomplished; I have one more Naughty Pixie I’d like to do a pinup of before I start really playing around with comic ideas. Stick around!

Naughty Pixie Willow WIP - pencils and flats

It took a minute to figure out the parameters to make this work, but I got there. A few more days and Willow will be fully rendered!

FIRST LESSON page 18 WIP - rough sketch

Here’s just about what the first stage or so of my page set-up looks like: layouts set, my color palette ready, my thumbnail minimized so I can reference my initial art set-up (along with the script, notated separately). From there, I do the rough sketching first just to proportion and arrange everything where I want it and account for the text fields to come later. The next step is to blue wash the sketch and bring the opacity way down so I can add a layer for final pencils and begin the a...

SIRENS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN - pages 5 & 6 complete

All done with these pages! My shortcuts and workarounds are starting to pay dividends on how long it takes me to complete these things, so don’t be surprised to see me start churning out more work faster (no promises). I’m especially proud of the final panel on page 6, it’s a little homage to the fantastic Atilio Gambedotti in reference to a shot of his character Susanita that caught my attention a long time ago. Did some different things with moisture effects (“pussy juice” and cum...

SIRENS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN - page 6 WIP

Here’s a little showcase of how I’m shading this shot. I wanted to do my primary shading the way I usually do, darkening folds and creases and muscle tone and so on. Then, in order to really drive home the effect of seeing a floor-facing body from below, I did a second shading layer by copy and pasting the flats for this shot, alpha locking and darkening the entire figure, and then setting the layer to multiply and reducing it down. Not seen here: I next used a soft airbrush to “push”...

SIRENS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN - pages 5 & 6 WIP Pencils

Took me a minute to get back here, but production is moving again! There were some definite anatomy challenges, especially on page six with that panel 3 doggy-style shot of Catwoman. I’ve also included the rough base sketches for page 6 and a sample of how I overlay for the final pencils. You’ll notice the last panel isn’t blue-lined; that’s because I liked the thumbnail version so much that I just copy/pasted/blew it up and used it instead of redrawing a whole new rough sketch. Saved...

SIRENS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN - WIP Preview

Working on the next two pages! Pencils for page 5 are complete and I’m working on page 6. Pencils take the longest, so once I’ve got that done you should see complete pages pretty quick! Tier 2 & up supporters can expect to see the finished pencils for both pages before the week is over!

Midnight

I’m posting this uncensored to my socials, but that will be a somewhat compressed version; this represents the full shot. As my first anime character done in my full-color naughty style, I think she came out pretty awesome! I toyed with the idea of doing a chest-frosted version, but I ultimately felt she did best in this shot as is (that said, I can always find a way to do that image another time 😈). Meantime, enjoy! I think I’ll start dabbling in a Naughty Pixie for my next pinup (and...

MHA Midnight - WIP pencils

I’m considering making the final product an all-the-way freebie on the socials, but I’ll treat my tier 2’s & up to some bud with my pencil process. Working o. The flats now.

THE CHAIN chapter 2: Fallout

*sorry for the delay, a lot of IRL stuff to get through, but we’re here! Enjoy the art and the story!*



The Chain Ch 2: Fallout


Franco Cassetti grunted as Blondie 1 (she had stated her name when the night’s fun had begun and Cassetti had promptly forgotten it) ran her velvety tongue sharply up the shaft of his thick, stumpy cock. Aside from the grunt and a twitch in one of his pale blue eyes, Cassetti never moved. His right hand remained where i...

Asma & Tomas - WIP pencils

On top of just sharing what I’m working on (I’m way behind on putting out the next chapter of THE CHAIN), I thought I’d show off a little more process breakdown at the pencil level.

FIRST LESSON pages 15 - 17 complete

Enjoy. Miranda and Darian certainly are.

FIRST LESSON -page 16 process

It occurred to me that I’ve never really showed off any of my process beyond a few flats shots and whatnot. Here’s a visual breakdown of how I go about lighting everything. Feel free to ask me to clarify.

I’m nearly done with pages 15 - 17; I’ll likely be dropping them later today.but just in case, here’s a little fully-rendered taste to whet some appetites.

Home stretch! Next update should be the complete pages with full lighting renders and text!

Some additional project work has kept me busy, but I’m ready at last to flats down! Final color work is where some of the more, ah…moist shots are going to get interesting 😅

FIRST LESSON pages 15 - 17 WIP pencils

Pencils are done at last on the next three pages! Inks will go quick and then it’s just color work and text; I’ll post the stages here for tiers 2 & up as I move along.

Midnight (My Hero Academia) - pinup WIP

I realized the other day how long it’s been since I did any anime character art and Midnight is easily one of the most visually appealing (and arresting; pun intended) anime characters I’ve seen in a while. Her hair style takes me out of my comfort zone, and I’m making a conscious effort to keep from going too far into anime-style territory, but I still want it to have some of the original anime flair to it, too. Tough balancing act, but I’ll make it work. I’ll be doing this in a co...

The Chain - Chapter 1: The Reckoning


A while back, I started writing chapters for this steamy story I had ideas for and kind of fell off the wagon with it. I’m thinking about revisiting it, so I thought I’d share it here, starting from the beginning. To start off strong, and because I am wrapped up in working on the next FIRST LESSON pages, I also did a quick art piece of Asma Basil, the central character. Enjoy, and let me know what you think.


“I said closer,” Asma said in a low voice, the s...

SIRENS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN pages 3 & 4 - complete!

I think the post title says it all!if you pay attention, you can see I’ve been working on my rendering of body fluids and there’s a definite progression just from page 3 to page 4 alone. Next, tiers 2 & up will see some sketches of upcoming work (another Naughty Pixie pinup and some layout work on the next set of FIRST LESSON pages) and everyone will see the completed Naughty Pixie sometime in the next week or two. Stay tuned!

I have the text ready for page 3 but I’ll save that for the final drop. Just wanted to show some work as proof-of-project and to whet some appetites. Should be done soon!

SIRENS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN - page 3 teaser

I’ll be showing off the full page sans text for my tier 2 and up supporters, but I thought I’d be a nice guy and -it something out for the tier 1’s to lay eyes on until the full pages are up. Enjoy!

SIRENS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN - WIP Rough Pencils pages 3 & 4

Normally the rough sketch stage for me is a lot of wire framing and basic shapes just to set up structure, but I got a little carried away on this one. I’ll still do another, cleaner pencils layer where I can finalize everything before hitting the colors.

The next three pages of First Lesson are here! From here on out, it’s the good stuff 😈🔥. And it only gets hotter…

FIRST LESSON PAGES 12 - 14 WIP

Got held up by the real world a bit but pencils are finally done on page 13! Here’s a little taste of what you’ll see as well as initial sketch comparison so you can see the set up and process I’m using for the drawing portion. More to come; just ask Miranda lol

FIRST LESSON pages 12 -14 WIP

Here’s the initial rough sketches for the next round of pages, which gives you another look at my process. From here I add in the dialogue and text which helps me block out the final art so I can save myself some time and trouble. Can’t wait to share he finished product!

Here we are with the first two pages of Ivy, Harley, and Selina having their way with Batman. I got a little experimental with this and I’m loving how it’s turning out so far. More pages coming soon; enjoy!

SIRENS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN - WIP

First page is done, hard at work on the next! I’m trying a new process of not-inking to save some time and see if it helps overall texture and quality. I’m liking how the first page came out with it, so we’ll see how this one does. I included the original thumbnail in this post so you can compare the progress from the original setup.

Sirens Just Wanna Have Fun - WIP storyboards preview

I knocked out all the storyboard thumbnails for this short comic today so I’m going to be working on this in tandem with knocking out FIRST LESSON pages (call it another challenge to my skills 😎). I also already have a background standard put together for this so I’m really excited to see how this plays out! Guess who this one’s about?
