Zahira Potion Fun

Anytime render commission for Zahira involving some transmutation/duplication magic. I've been wanting to do the whole sunlit from a window look for a long time now.

Full renders are fun but there's a reason I don't do them for every piece.

OCs in costume

Featuring my most recent character and my least recent character. Morgan went somewhat obscure with Amy from Soulcalibur.

Morgan in action!

A lot of experimenting with new techniques in this piece here. I said on the WIP post that I really needed practice injecting life and action into a scene, so this is a combination of almost every way I could think of to do that. Comments on ways I could have done it better are welcome.

Morgan WIP

My more explicit scenes have always really lacked life because they were so static. I added some action indicators after the fact to that last halloween commission at the request of the client, but I wanted to do a piece that intends action from the start. This is principally practice of those blur spikes. They're possibly a little overused in places but overall I think this is a really successful experiment.

Gonna try to finish it with some experimental coloring before the end of the ...

Morgan sketches

Yeah, the name is officially Morgan. Apologies to the patron who wanted to keep calling her "that girl". It was honestly tempting but I liked the name a lot and I want to put the suggestions to rest.

Anyway, people like her and she's fun to draw so here you go. There was a third sketch but I decided I wanted to try to properly line and color that one.

Not pictured: what may or may not be between her and that chair seat...

Trick or Treat

Commissioned by somepageperson. This was a flat color commission so I took some time to experiment with inking and effects, and I learned a lot!

Worthless internet points to whomever can first identify the two figures over yonder and what their costumes are.

This Girl Again

Another runaway sketch turned into grayscale (and near gray) experimentation.

She still doesn't have a name...

Inga Polishing touch-up

Longtime (relatively speaking) fans and perusers of my galleries will recognize this piece. It continues to be one of my favorites that I've done so far but the face in the original version *really* hasn't aged well.

I didn't want to do a full redraw because I really think most of it works, so I figured I'd take a little time to break down the layers in the old version and rebuild the face from lines up. If it were as easy I'd also redo the hair, but overall the hair isn't as bad, and w...

[C] Milk meme with Corbin

Wanted to get this commission done and out there while the meme was only *somewhat* stale. For @ThiccMeowboi on Twitter.

Incidentally, for a long time I was using a blend mode for the lines so that they take on some of the color below them, but lately I've been trying out opaque black again. Curious if anyone has noticed the difference, and whether you prefer one or the other.

Layla's new tail

Layla isn't very well-versed on kitsune lore.

I sketched this up because I didn't like having two double-tailed commissions of Layla and not one that I'd drawn myself.

Patrons' Choice: Inga's Booty

I still think it's funny that this won the poll, but hey! look how she turned out. I think I was a little too generous with the size of that monster between her legs, but it looks good to me anyway.

My apologies to anyone who saw the rough WIP post and expected either a sword or one of those cool pirate topcoats, but the coat looked better in the sketch than it did as I tried to go into detail (and let's face it, there are quite enough versions here already).

The next poll will be...

[C] Halloween Party

Commissioned by Pwigg, featuring Timiya and Melanie sizing up the prospects at a Halloween party. Various alternate captions provided for your entertainment.

Celebrate with Cleo

October 4 is Cleo's birthday! A year ago I posted the first picture of her (included here strictly for reference). That was significant not just for the introduction of a new character, but because it was the first NSFW piece I ever posted, and led down a path of increased depravity right up to this post. Apologies for burying this content warning for hand-holding. I hope it doesn't offend anyone TOO much.

Fun(?) fact(??): Cleo almost had a dick. That first picture of her has her hidin...

Random sub

I wanted to take a break from comms but didn't know what to do instead... until I saw this tweet. Dunno who she is. Maybe an adoptable?

The messy version is just for the patrons.

[C] Emba and Perry

Commissioned by @Smoxul on Twitter. He decided against the areola version but I thought you might be interested to see it (I have client approval to share the unreleased alt here).

A note to patrons on exclusive art

You might have noticed that kept one version of the last commission exclusive to patreon, but then decided to release that version. That was based on my philosophy that patreon-exclusive art from me should be limited to higher-resolutions and small enhancements and variations to the image-- things like outfit variations, climax versions, and more that don't alter the core focus or composition. In this case the variation was substantial and it felt too much like I was tossing scraps to the pub...

Patron's choice poll #1

This will most likely be a monthly event. Options are a mixture of suggestions from 'There Will Be Bl8d' tier patrons and my own ideas.

I will be drawing the winning option as somewhere between a shaded and a complete render piece, depending on the subject and time constraints. Strong runners-up will either also be drawn or be included in a future poll.

The poll will be open for a week.
