For a while we kinda fell into this thing of only drawing Erika in commissions, but we just did a few comics involving her I'm eager to show off. Those will be a bit before they're ready, so in the meantime here's one of those aforementioned commissions, featuring Erika and Tim dressed up in a few cartoon outfits.

This one was rather different, doing a humanized version of Victini. Not really typical fair for us but hey, that's commissions for you. Actually gave this some last minute touchups before submitting just since felt like there was room for improvement.

This one's been sitting since about September and I think kind of goes to show the danger on waiting too long to submit things since do think it's notably more rough than a lot of the art we've been putting out of late. Kind of wound up delaying it just because we got a lot of Kingdom Hearts commissions in a relatively short period of time and wanted to space out releasing them.
Sort of funny timing, I replayed 1 and 2 recently and I have thought about trying out Birth by Sleep, which I...

Heheh... Yeah, Robbie and Joshie naturally get introduced to her Mom and the lady inhabitting her body, which is the point where we remind ourselves that Nainika's kids are warriors from the distant future mentally transplanted into their tiny past selves.
......
I friggin' love Daylight Park. ^^
ZOONDS, kiddos! It looks like that spunky, sassy Satsuki has run afoul a funky phantom with a predilection for padding papooses! How's she going to crawl out of this crib from the crypt?! There's only one more in this incredible series of commissions, so grab your snacks and grab your kiddies for the exciting conclusion, brought to you by Dirtybooks!
~~Dirtybooks: For when the pages are much too clean~~
Heheh... Yeah, this series is still going on. Actually we're almost done producing this particular arc. It's been worked out that it'll eventually come to 13 pages, and we wrapped up number 12 last month. Hope that means folks enjoy it, since there's still another four of them to go and we're in early talks for another arc after.
Certainly no complaints from us, always happy to do more. Honestly this is sort of a mainstay of our Patreon; we've been putting these pages up since about wh...
Yeesh. SO much time went into that background, trying to make it look as spot-on as we could to Shantae's house. Either way, this pictured waited around for a looooong time before it was finished, with Shantae herself being redrawn.... I think maybe three times? Was at least twice. Final result was certainly cute, though.
Like the last picture, this had its colors tweaked, so including both versions. Not as radical a difference but still fond of the end result. ^^
We haven't dra...
This one as you can see from the two versions got a loooot of last minute improvements. Was a picture we were happy with to start with but thought there was room to do better with, and it wound up snowballing. Very happy with this one, was a good chance to try out some new things with shading and coloring; really hope everyone enjoys it.

Heheh... Yeah, not bad, huh? ^^ Very fun getting back to this after not being able to do a page on the week of my surgery. Just more of these two responding to their body swap.... My favorite touches are Alisha and Dinah taking to each other and Mitch apparently having just had an epic fight with that hat stand.
2022-04-02 13:50:49 +0000 UTC View PostJust figured should give a heads up, it's been a pretty stressful week so the next page probably won't be up until later in the night, possibly early morning. Sorry for the delay.

Heh. Yeah, now we're gonna show off some improvements we've been making lately. Was just about to submit this picture of Marco from Star Vs when Martin decided to do some last-minute touch-ups. So thought I'd feature both just to show the contrast. ^^ Love that gigantic hair.

Adventure Time, anyone? Yeah, this was a commission from a while back... Not a big fan of the show but was an.... interesting one to throw together. Was kinda at a loss for the background.

So we had a picture of Phi sitting unfinished for a really long time, likely well over a year, and kind of just kept putting off wrapping it up. Then last week they announced the Xbox port of the Nonary Games and we figured hey, this is a dead series, it's not likely to be a better time to submit this than this other than whenever they finally port them to the Switch (especially since we already have an AI picture in progress for Nirvana Initiative). So we rushed this together for the occasio...

Heh. You folks remember this one?

It was so popular that we got two new commissions for Owl House work out of it. This was the first; REALLY cute diddy with these two, isn't it? Luz and Amity padded together and watching a preschooler-show.
Need to get the other commission involving these two out. I just had dental surgery so s...
This one will get updated later to add shading if nothing else, probably also to touch up the dialogue and make it laid out better, maybe clean up aspects of the art. Martin submitting this one and I basically had to completely solo this page due to Adam getting dental surgery done; as a result it's basically just something simple I could largely rework from existing assets, though do think it came out pretty good for what it is. Probably would have just been filler if not for today being whe...

Heh... Yeah, cute little picture of Mal and Emi from Devil Is A Part Timer. Two really fun, cute characters that we're all too happy to show off. Good show, should probably re-watch Season 1 before the second one drops....
This is one of those ones that went through a lot of last-minute tweaks before being submitted, mostly their heads being polished up, a background and shirt added, and most importantly Emi's padding no longer being clean. ^^
Heheh... Yeah, this was commissioned to celebrate the release of Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl, just a little diddy with Dawn and Cynthia looking adorable. Cynthia naturally steals the show, as she's accustomed to doing. ^^

Jeez, THIS one had a lot of work go into it....
Basically we tried out Veronica just as a random name that would be fun to pad... And she wound up being one of the earliest attempts we made at seriously trying to mimic another art style to be spot-on. This was a hard one to cut our teeth on; it was really, really rough capturing the Archie style compared to Owl House or Star Vs, and it was one of those projects we had to leave and come back to a few times as we honed our skills. Heck, ...
"Toldja I could take you without your She-Ra powers."
Yeah, another in our line of attempts to mimic other art styles, with a look at Catra and Adora from She-Ra. Both padded but Catra apparently has more umph in combat.
Heheh.... Yeah, this is what we're doing. Pages like this where we suddenly see the plot spelled out is always an interesting bit. Amelia and Nainika are body-swapping. That's this arc's plot.
Hope you guys enjoy where we wind up going with this~ ^^
Closing out the month we got a regressed Todoroki losing a bet with Eri. Simple little commission that's been waiting to be submitted for a while.

It's been eons since I cared much about Inuyasha so you can imagine how apathetic I am to Yasahime! Designs are sorta cute but eh.
Either way, got a cute picture out of it. Folks enjoy?
......
Okay, on looking up the characters' names to do the tags, Sesshoumaru and Rin got hitched? That's gross. That's gross in the same way the manga of Bunny Drop is gross.
Expressions are everything. ^^Here's a cute little shot of Susan from El Goonish Shive for ya, folks.
We're trying to do more vibrant color schemes now, and Susan here was an early experiment for it. We'd already got her finished when Martin backed up to give her another go with the more vibrant colors. Including the earlier version just to show off the contrast.
Does that count as using Jeremy enough to make a tag for him? I'm making a tag for him.
And there's the mysterious Amelia. ^^ Hope you folks like; she's the other major lead of this arc, so naturally we have to get a good look at her now that we've established just how important Nainika is to the complex and knows everyone who stays there.
Was a kick drawing her; we haven't done that since WAAAAAAY back when we did concept art for a lot of people staying here.
I think everyone from that set of concept art has shown up in the comics by now..... Sort of. There's some...
Just been a rough day in drawing, so it'll be a bit late. We're nearly wrapping up the lineart for now, will get it on here as soon as we can.

Heheh... Yeah, Cassie continuing to throw a massive fit. A continuation of this particular picture....

Kinda do enjoy giving it to Anne.... Eh, hope folks enjoy.
Heh. Yeah, a commission we did for Grandsword to celebrate Sora's addition to the Smash roster. We were gonna wait on it a bit longer, but after Kingdom Hearts got added to the Switch yesterday, thought this would be a great little way to celebrate. Not a bad shot, huh? ^^
Don't have a lot to say on this one, but while he didn't come out half bad, Sora wasn't a lot of fun to draw. Got easier once he as dressed as Daisy though; much better look for him too.
Why, what's this? Zounds! It's those lovable bunch of troublemakers from your favorite Japaname Ghost Stories!
Eagle-eyed viewers might remember our last rip-roaring adventure with those spook-seeking stinkers.....

Heheh.... Yeah, this was a cute little diddy we did of Vinyl and Octavia; two really cute ponies who are naturally cuter together.
We've been doing brighter, more vibrant colors lately, and this was a good experiment for it. Martin went back and re-colored this so they popped more. Appropriate for MLP characters, eh? Here's the original color scheme if you're curious.

Heheh... Yeah, we actually see Nainika's place here, run out of a converted Shipping Container. Nice, isn't it? ^^
Very cute little diddy, very fond of how Nainika is coming out so far.
