Chained Kurama! 4K + super naughty alternate

Had a lot of fun painting this one and kinda tried a bit of a new techinque with the painting itself. Not sure how I feel about it yet, but I think the result is pretty nice! Lemme know what you guys think.

Next up will be the character vote for July, some comic preview stuff, and then we'll see what I can fit in for the Patreon.

Thanks so much for sticking around everyone and hope you enjoy the following comic page <3

Mizuki's panther BF sketches

So I've been working on some sketches for this boy and I'm wondering.. Do you guys like to see super behind the scenes stuff like this even if it's really sloppy? I'll be doing a LOT of sketching of both Mizuki and his BF in preparation for the main phase of the comic. Some of these poses may get included in the comic and others might just get tossed. Not sure if it'd ruin the anticipation to have seen sketches before in super rough form. What do you guys think??

And.. I'm sooo excited ...

Kuramaaa WIP

Hey all, I'm gonna be getting into the rest of the image today along with some other little updates, but here's a WIP for you! Wanted to show what the painting looks like before I go any further with the chains and other stuff.

Should have a few more updates for today, then we'll be onto the next character vote and more comic work.

Totally Not Gay pg 4

Okaaaay. This one is just a tiny bit late because I was fiddling with the character coloring and proportions a lot.. I think this is the style I'll try to go with for the rest of the comic.

Hope you all enjoy it so far and I'm excited to show where Mizuki ends up next.

It's totally not the Dark Side I swear!

Up next is Flip's completed June sticker, a deerboy sketch for Necrofelix, and ... Kurama!

See you guys soon <3

Kurama pinup of the month VOTE June

There's something extra fun about working on characters you actually know somewhat. Hopefully this one's a nice variety of poses and situations, but dang it is hard to work with such a large character (not muscled, but literally gigantic lol). 

By the way, this is gonna be Naruto from Boruto if one of the Naruto pics wins this vote! I don't want to possibly get in trouble for including Naruto from the original two series/manga.

So for now, this process is gonna remain as it's...

Totally Not Gay pg. 4 progress

Well Mizuki, looks like you really messed up this time.. Let's see where this goes! Gonna work on the dialogue a bit before the color version, but that's the gist of the situation at least.

Kurama final image for June

Will do a vote on this later on today for the pinup of the month. So the rest of the content this month will be the comic, the finished Kurama illustration, and some WIPs/random sketches if I have time in between all of the painting.

Thanks a lot for the suggestions guys - if this one gets selected, I'll be drawing in the chains, but since it's just a WIP I didn't want to bother because that'll take an hour or two probably.

Kurama option 3!

Alrighty - third and second to last option for Kurama. I'll have the next comic page update either for tomorrow's update or this upcoming Thursday (depending on how the panels turn out!)

Would love to see some suggestions for the final Kurama pic from you guys - I'm not totally sure what to do with him.

Kurama option 2

This is kind of a ridiculous scenario but.. I can't figure out how to do this pair any differently given the insane size difference xD.

The next two sketches will be of Kurama solo, and then we'll do a vote!

Thanks guys and see you soon <3.

Kurama pinup of the month pose 1

Hi guys. First of all, I absolutely love these two and have always wanted to draw them as a pair. I always thought their arguments were cute and I think this shows where my brain was while watching xD.

So.. I have at least 2 more ideas for the pinup of the month pose, and I'm gonna try to get them finished and uploaded here in the next week to vote on.

I was also super happy to see so many votes for a Kurama x Naruto pairing! I actually didn't expect anyone to vote for that, but h...

Kurama pinup theme vote: pairing or not?

Alright guys, this time I thought it might be fun to get your thoughts on the overall theme before I do a bunch of sketches for this one! I want to know your thoughts on this pinup, because Kurama has so many possibilities as a character and it'll be nice to narrow down a fun theme to start with.

So choose your preference for this pinup of the month and I'll direct my sketches mostly toward the theme that wins! (But I'll still do some others in case).

Flip Bunny sticker preview WIP SFW

So this one is an example of my new sticker offering for the $35 tier! You either have the choice of a full character sketch or a small expression sticker.

I'll have this colored sometime tomorrow before I move onto the next sketches for Kurama!

Would love to make stickers more of a thing in my work but between pinups, personal art, and now the comic, I'm not really gonna have time outside of the ones my patrons choose.

Totally Not Gay page 3!

Hey guys - here's the third page of Mizuki's adventure. Will update with the lines for page 4 sometime in the next two weeks, followed by the pinup of the month and full-color page 4. And for those of you excited to get onto the gay part of the story, it's coming soon!

Up next is Flip bunny's Telegram sticker and practice sketches for the big fox boy Kurama, who won the tie breaker. He's gonna be a stylistic challenge for me, even more than Kass was, but let's see if I can come up with ...

4-way tie breaker vote

Wow, didn't expect that, but I'm happy to see the contest characters accumulating votes a lot quicker now! I think it's time now to add a third row so there's less of a chance that the contests will end in a tie.

So since this was a first-time 4-way tie, I'd like to do a tie breaker like this. Just simply vote for who you'd like to see for this month's pinup, and I'll decide on the winner tomorrow based on the results, so I can get to pose sketches quickly!

Bunny Boyfriends!

Sooo.. For those of you who aren't aware, if you find yourself dating a bunny, be prepared for the hungriest boy you've ever met <3.

I swear bunnies never run out of energy for that, even if they're otherwise wonderfully comfy lazy cuddly boys. Be prepared!

This is a personal piece and as such will be a Patreon exclusive for at least a while. Planning on finishing this as a bonus for this month if I have enough time between the rest of the Patreon content and my commissions for...

Totally Not Gay pg. 3

Hey guys! Here's the page 3 preview of Totally Not Gay, which will be uploaded in full color on the 9th for the $10 tier. Gotta say I'm pretty happy with how the layout of this page turned out.

Absolutely can't wait to get to the gay part this comiccc ahhh. So the current plan is for it to go on for 5 pages of his straight relationship before some.. Revelations let's say! I'm not exactly sure where it'll end yet, but the plan is for the comic to hit around the 20 page mark (at least it ...

Character contest: June vote

Hi all - here's the vote for June. As usual, vote for your favorite here and I'll close this contest Saturday night, June 1st.

NOTE! $5 tier now has the ability to vote ONCE per character contest. 

$10 tier now get TWO votes

$35 tier gets THREE votes

You can split your votes if you have more than one. Hopefully this will be a bit more exciting for everyone and give different levels of influence depending on your level up support! 

Thanks guys and I'm ex...

Patreon tier changes!

Hi guys - I've made these changes to better suit the goals of my Patreon and to give a little more interactivity to everyone. This Patreon will be as it was before, but with an additional focus on comics - so the pinup of the month isn't going anyway!

Thanks so much everyone for your support, and I hope you'll all enjoy the new tiers and content as time goes one <3

1$: Tip jar tier - thank you for your patronage!

Totally Not Gay pg. 2

Well, here's page two! It's super exciting to get this comic finally underway and I hope you'll enjoy the progression to Mizuki's gay adventures! Gonna be a fun ride I think :D

See you guys soon for the next update! Gonna commit to a pace of one full color page every 2 weeks for this comic. I'm thinking of showing the planning stages in between uploads, continuing the pinups of the month, and maybe every once in a while holding polls for the direction of the comic mid-writing. We'll see...

Totally Not Gay Cover!

Hey guys - thanks so much for participating in that vote. I think there was a chance that the tiger could've won, but I'm willing to bet the panther had this one, so I went ahead and designed a cover page for this comic! 

So so excited to tell this story and hopefully make it ridiculously hot. We'll meet this panther boy around page 5 or so, and after that, it's gonna get super gay for our husky boy there <3.

Next up on the schedule for May:

-Flip bunny sketch of the...

Help me decide on Mizuki's male partner for "Totally Not Gay"!

First, whoa, welcome everyone, and I hope you'll enjoy the stuff I've got in store for this Patreon going forward!

I've had this comic in mind for ages now, and always imagined that it would be with a tiger, but now I'm rethinking as I'm starting to draw the gay pages. I have the personality of his partner in mind, but never really was too set on the species. 

Please vote for your favorite and when I arrive at the start of the gay comic in a few pages, we'll go with this choi...

Kass phone lock screens!

SFW and mildly NSFW.

Since this one is a relatively tame piece, I thought I'd make some phone screen versions of it so you can use it for your phone BG and still retain closet-furry status! *no gaurantees*

The musical bird boy! Alternate versions 4K

A couple alt versions for mister Kass <3

The musical bird boy, 1440p!

I tried to push myself further than I've ever gone on a painting here, and I've definitely hit the end of my current abilities here. I'll try to get even better from now on and push myself for every one of these big illustrations!

Thank you all so much for you support, and every time I come back to see you all still here it makes me smile so much and gives me even more motivation to improve and post more.

See you all soon for the comic update near the end of the month.

The musical bird boy, 4K! (special loincloth)

Necrodeer sketch May progress

Hey guys! Here's the sketch for May for Necrodeer. Next sketch on the way soon soon, and tomorrow I'll be working all day on Kass!

Decided that I'll be working on the comic the last week and want to get Kass finished a lot earlier. Gonna try to make it a really special pic with an extra detailed background.

See you guys soooon

Character design progress: Baako

Tribal spacehorse design by my boyfriend and I for an upcoming comic that will take place after I'm finished with Mizuki's comic!

Also, there will be a vote taking place for which character will end up being Mizuki's male partner for the comic, because I'm having second thoughts about the tiger actually.

Next up are the two patreon tier sketches which I'll be working toward uploading on Sunday, and following that will be comic page number 2 the following week, and the pinup of the...

Totally Not Gay pg 1

Alrighty guys, here's the very first page of this comic! I suspect it's gonna be something like ~15 pages maybe? I'm not 100% sure where I'm gonna end it, but we'll see as the story grows. Like I mentioned before, this is gonna be about ~5 pages of Mizuki still in this relationship with his girl before we start to see the shift into his gay self!

I'd love to hear what you guys think of this kind of style. I want to keep it relatively simple color-wise, so I've been fumbling around tryin...

Kass pose for May! Please vote

Hi guys, as usual, please vote for your favorite of these poses of our favorite bird boy for me to do a full portrait! This will be completed before the end of the month.

First comic page coming up in a little bit! I hope you guys will enjoy the story.

See you all sooon

Totally Not Gay: Prologue page 1

Alright guys, while creating this comic, I discovered a little problem… I want this to be a story about a gay guy who's basically discovering the hard way that he really is gay, and I'm telling that story with my husky boy Mizuki!

So, this WILL be a gay exclusive comic - but I want to show his history a bit to show why his later inner struggles with accepting he's gay arrive in the full story. I've decided to do a little prologue of roughly 4-5 pages to explain this part of his histor...
