Who Should I Draw a NSFW Picture Of?

There was a request for more NSFW content.  So I'm going to make a big poll.  I don't know if I'm giving too many options.  The runner-ups will be the only choices in the next poll maybe.

2010 Sketch Dump

I don't know if I have much of the art I drew on paper anymore, but I still have all of the digital art I've drawn-- even the stuff I never finished.  SO I thought that going back through folders and postings things I never completed might be fun.  Some years might have more than others.  This would be the first year I drew digitally.

I don't normally make a web version (in jpeg or png) of art that isn't finished, so these aren't even in my folders are competed art.

The Batgirl Who Laughs

Finally got around to finishing this.  I thought I'd try to do a more traditional superhero picture, instead of just cheesecake pinups.  I'm not sure if the rope makes sense but a lot of superhero pictures have ropes that just are going off in every direction.

This is Stephanie Brown, the short-lived (4th?) Batgirl.  She was Spoiler, briefly Robin, then briefly Batgirl before the DC universe was wiped at least once.  Then she was back to only being Spoiler I think. View Post

Pulse 427 + PSDs + WIPs

Okay, a part of this is to show what Pulse's situation might be like in the future.  Although to have a solo office, she'll have to be a B-Class.  She's currently a D-Class which means two person teams and limited outside missions.

If she can upgrade her suit, she'll be a C-Class.  They have three-person teams, and go on regular missions like a normal superhero.  Her team will be Tabitha and Charlotte.

Pulse 427 WIP 5

I'm officially late, so this WIP is going up for all Patreons.  I'm still working on the flats, that's why the colors are weird in places.  Krita has a think to auto-create a flat color layer, but it just inserts random colors.  Then you have to put in the right colors (and fix mistakes in the automated creation).

What's happening is that we're seeing Jessica's office, which starts with her trophy room.

2010 Pulse Wing Prototypes

I was looking back at old files trying to find what was the oldest all-digital art I could find, and I noticed these pictures I made when I was trying to design the wings on Pulse's suit.

I picked #7, but it was because I wanted the first wings to be simple.  You have to leave some room to make some more complex things in the future.

Pulse 430 and 431 WIP 1

Another really early page while I try to iron out future pages.  I wanted to tie Annie's narrative in with Mira and Evilyn's narrative.  That both allows the "team B" story to continue without having Annie absent for a while, and it allows Annie to be tempted to fight Mean Evie.

I also thought that Evilyn wouldn't be afraid of Annie.  Annie is only a D-Class and she'd feel like she needs to show her status as a C-Class.  The lesson being that you have to manipulate E...

Pulse 427 WIP 4

This page is going to have a lot of details.  I'm trying to make it look like Jessica has had a good career, but she's not even in the top half maybe of B-class heroes.

I don't know if some of these will be important later, but at this point, it's more to show what Annie's team might have eventually.

Materia Enhanced IV, page 10

I'm not sure what I think of the text in the last panel.  I had originally planned for it to be empty, then thought it needed to be something that wouldn't let it be a drastic cliffhanger, then realized it couldn't be very specific.

Materia Enhanced IV pages 10 and 11 WIP

On page 10, I think I just need to just work on the first panel and then color and letter.

On page 11, there's more to do.

Pulse 427 - 429 WIP

Okay, here's my current plans for the next three pages.  I decided that I should add a page between 427 and what would have been 429.

427-

Jessica shows off her trophy room.  I suspect every superhero has one, showing off a trophy from every major villain they've defeated.  She makes comments about each.

428-

I don't have the dialog yet, but Jessica and Annie talk in a room with a big "M" window.  I thought Jessica ...

Pulse 427 & 428 WIP

I'm not sure if I should have a page in-between these two pages.  This sudden shift suggests that Jessica always had a plan for Annie, which kind of goes along with the appearance that she manipulates people.  But there also could have been a page with her talking with Annie, considering this is the first time she's known she's also a superhero.

Also, on page 428, I wonder about the panel of Annie's butt.  It's certainly not unworthy of a panel to itself, but it does seem...

Materia Enhanced IV, pages 12-14 WIP

What I'm trying to do recently is take one series and roughly draw the next bit of the story.  Here's Materia Enhanced IV up until the end of this section of the story.

Part of me wanted a big dramatic fight with Tifa and the robber, but I thought the best thing for the story was that it was so simple for her to win that it happened off panel.

The next section will be mostly Rikku and Yuffie sneaking off away one at a time and making people randomly grow with the materia to t...

Pulse 426 + PSDs + WIPs

I thought that if Annie was going up to the above ground levels, there would be a lot of famous people to her, and I should show that.  Her Mom might see them all as her peers, but Annie would geek out.

I also thought that Annie might still not see herself as she is now, and still she herself as she used to be.

...It's not totally clear what happens to Jessica's helmet after the first panel, but maybe she's floating it somewhere.

Pulse 426 WIP 4

I'm starting to wonder if Annie is clearly buster than the woman in panel 6.  If not, maybe I should alter the dialog in the next panel to imply Annie is competitive with her in bustyness, not the clear winner.

Pulse 426 WIP 3

Annie's pointing out the people famous for something, and mentions the one with the biggest breasts-- which is always bad when you're actually bigger.

Sketch Dump

Some sketches from the Android tablet-

  • Annie doing pushups.  I thought this would be a little more complex with her figure, and wanted to see what it might be like, and if it would look too weird.
  • Annie in a dress.  I draw Annie a lot because I like drawing her, but also I can draw her easily, and without any reference (although Lucy, Tabitha, and Eve fit that too).
  • Annie pose.  I think this end up a NSFW picture.  Maybe a towel in her right h...

Pulse 426 & Pulse 427 WIP 2

The next two pages.

--Dialog for page 426--

Panel 1

Annie: It's so bright up here!  There's daylight!  And so many famous people!

Panel 2

Annie: It's Blackout!  The blind man they say he has a gadget for everything!

Panel 3

Annie: (person's name) the smartest mind in the world!

Panel 4

Annie: (person's name), so fast she can seem to be two people!

Cowgirl Lucy

I sketched a picture of Lucy, and then asked on Twitter how should she be dressed.  The response was in a female cowboy outfit.  Here's all of the major stages too.

Materia Enhanced IV, page 10 WIP 3

Worked a lot on the backgrounds.

A Day Off No Matter What page 20

A little more complex making two versions of the page than I remembered.  I tried to judge duplicate layers in the same file, instead I should have had two different files.  It would have been better to make the R one first, then made a duplicate file and edit it to the PG13 version.

Pulse 425 + PSDs + WIPs

Okay, chapter 33 "Mother Daughter Day".  Jessica takes Annie up to the higher levels, where the B-Class work.

This is going to end up connecting to the Mira and Evilyn narrative.

Pulse 425 WIP 3

Getting close.  I don't think I got Jessica's hair right in panel two.

Sketch Dump

I know more comics were requested, but here's some doodles in the meantime.  It's just two quick things I drew today.

A bottomless Eve (I should probably add a game logo to her shirt)-

And a basketball woman playing basketball.  I'm not sure who she is exactly.  She could just be a one-shot character?  She might be about Rikku's size in Materia Enhanced?  I could make it (the future character) Sasha from Maximum Max, as an easter egg that she'll end up thi...

Android 18 and Krillin

I must have saved the colored version as a Krita KRA file, not a PSD.

A Day Off No Matter What cover WIP 2

I wasn't sure if I should have them wearing their bathing suits on the front, or the outfits they were wearing at the start of the comic.  I think I've decided on a third option- battle-damaged versions of the clothing they wore at the beginning with their bathing suits showing underneath.

The shape of the image wasn't quite right on the tablet, it was the shape of an inside page with a border, so I'll have to add a bit to the sides here.

View Post

Pulse 425 WIP 2

The first page of chapter 33 "Mother Daughter Day".  Annie goes up with her Mother to the upper levels.  Charlotte eventually joins Tabitha and Annie's team, so I thought I'd have Tabitha meet her.

I thought I needed to have a big transition here from the last page, so I put in that one panel with big borders.

A Day Off No Matter What pages 20-24 WIP

I thought I needed to start trying to plan out the next bit of pages for each of the open series.  I started with "A Day Off No Matter What" because it's the only one that's near the end.

Page 20-

No change here from the last WIP.  Annie wakes up from their fight to find Lucy missing, and goes to find her.

Page 21-

Lucy says she was investigating and the underwater complex wasn't destroyed.  While there will be a NSFW ve...

Swordmaster's Day Off

Just finishing up a WIP.  I had mostly inked this once, but the program crashed and I lost almost everything.  That never usually happens, so it took me about a month to get back to it.

This is Narmaya from Granblue, which is both a game and an anime?  It was a request on Twitter.
