The Den

November Bonus Alt: Prof. Oak

Surprise dilfy Oak!!!

The esteemed creator of the modern pokedex and world renowned professor graces us today with a throwback outfit from his university days! It's a little bit tight yeah...but all the better I say!

Seems like my hankering for pokemon peeps just cannot be contained by one guy so here's another! Okay, kinda weird saying that since I haven't completed the Drayden piece ye...

Men of the Valley Update: Wizard 🧙‍♂️

I like how the gif just goes from UWU to murder face just like that LOL.

Anyway yay, my schedule is pretty much cleared up enough that I can go back to doing the portraits again!

So Rasmodius! Like with Marlon, I again pretty much adopted a making-a-D&D-character-portrait mindset for this one. I even made him an elf so you know that that's totally what was going on. Comparing it to the previous one, this hands down is a TOTAL UPGRADE let's not even kid a...

November Poll Winner!!!

Drayden wins the November exclusive spot!!! 🥳🎉

Woah this is a little bit surprising to me. I honestly thought that Drayden was on the more niche side of things? Relative to the rest of the men on here, I mean. Like yeah, I've SEEN people thirst for him and all but beating Archie—the one I was lowkey expecting to dominate here??? I guess it's the Drayden stans who're here on the den LOL.

I admittedly don't know much about Drayden as a character...other than the fact that h...

October Reward Fix

As written on the post itself, I've reuploaded the October rewards because I've made the dumb mistake of drawing an extra finger in a hand as shown above. Ugh, how I didn't notice this is beyond me and I am now wallowing in absolute embarrassment OH MY GOD 😭

For those who've downloaded the initial version, please do download the new one...unless you want to headcanon pyramid head stabbing...

November Poll

Yup that's right, it's pokemen time!!! 🥳🎉

Dunno guys, I just suddenly wanted to draw some of these fine trainers. And I mean with the amount of dilfy and hunky men in pokemon, this is definitely not gonna be the last poll of its kind. Huh...maybe I'll do a professors one some other time? Anyway, I actually REALLY want to draw someone here specifically and thought I'd do a poll based out ...

October Exclusive: Pyramid Head

Oh man, I guess he got you right in the heart 😍

***

Ugh, this really dragged on didn't it? I had a little bit of difficulties rendering this for some reason. But it's done so that's all that matters! I'll shortly be posting the November poll later today so be on the lookout for that.

The pack contains three alts plus the image above; I wanted to do more but just couldn't get any...

October Reward Delay

So I just wanted to preempt the inevitable: the October reward will be delayed 😞

With my current progress, it's just not possible for me to be able to finish it before the month ends. The fact that I'm kind of in the slower side of the spectrum and have to juggle patreon stuff with commission work is just...ughh. Not to mention I kind of started work on this pretty late into the month like I mentioned in my last post.

But as I said in that very same post, this won't affect rew...

WIP: October Exclusive - Pyramid Head

Now what is going on with that fourth alt??? 🤔

Right, so I've only fairly recently started this because that other art thing I've been mentioning about took the vast majority of my October to finish. It's an illustration for a zine I'm involved with by the way...which means I can't even show it yet! But I do believe you guys should be able to hear about that publicly in the coming months so look out for that if you're interested. I'll be yapping about it on my socials for sure when t...

October Poll Winner!

Is Pyramid Head!!! 🥳🎉

Huh...initially, I thought that these two have an equal bearing in my eyes but now that we have a winner, seems like I'm ever so slightly disappointed Jason lost! No matter, I'm sure I'll find time to draw him some day. My misgivings aside, Pyramid dude will be a fine tribute to the dark gods this spooky month 😈

Also a little bit of update: a project I'm part of has its deadline quickly approaching and I'm hoping to finish it within a week or two. L...

October Poll

SPOOOOKY MONTH!!!! 🎃👻💀

I was aiming to get three choices for this but looking at popular slasher characters, turns out these two are the only ones that I actually want to draw 😅

So, Pyramid Head and Jason! Been seeing sexy art of these two for a while now. More so than horror art actually??? Well I guess people know what they want out of these big and intimidating manslaughte...

September Exclusive: Janitor Thresh

Whew, finished at the eleventh hour!!! Like literally, it's 11 PM on the 30th here 😆

***

So I got really ambitious with this one and made a whole splash art kind of deal. Which is the probably the reason why I took a long time finishing it...Although looking back at my previous posts, I do tend to post the rewards in the last week of the month so it's not really all that shocking that...

WIP: September Exclusive - Janitor Thresh

Yay, I'm late again this month! 😞🎉

Ugh, I knew doing the Duncan piece was gonna throw off my plans by a lot and well...it did! I haven't even started on that other thing that I need to be doing!!! But of well, it is what it is.

Anyhow, on to the piece itself: I was inspired by one of Thresh's in-game animation—the teleport home one, I think—where he slips because of his own mopping. But as a twist, he's accidentally kicked his bucket and got himself all wet! Well you ...

Men of The Valley Update: Harvey

So I lied; I WAS gonna focus on doing this month's reward and that other mystery project BUT NOOOOO I just had to really want to draw something else 😅

Anyway, we have Harvey! Everyone's favorite doctor if that twitter poll was to be believed. This one's a little special cuz I draw a variant; the normal one plus one where he takes off the glasses! See, I drew him these really pretty droopy eyes and was too in love with them to just trap them behind glasses...so there!

September Poll Winner!

Janitor Thresh wins!!!

Woo so excited for this one; I've really liked Thresh's design (EXCEPT FOR WHEN THEY TURNED HIM INTO A HUMAN EWWW) but have never had the onus to actually draw him. Plus the janitor design is just so whimsical and fun...not to mention sexy as fuck!

As for Big Daddy whomst I've not only disgraced with that crunchy, compressed jpeg but also had the misfortune of having his name misspelled on the poll itself (I couldn't edit it, didn't allow me to!): this is no...

September Poll

First of all, I'M SO SORRY BIG DADDY, I literally cannot find any other image of you that looks half as decent as this!!! I'm really pitting a crusty screencap with a fully rendered splash art 😫

But yeah, here's the pick of the month! No themes for this one other than the dudes I'd really like to draw at the moment.

Poll runs until Wednesday so don't forget to vote!

August Exclusive: Ben Bigger - A Short Constructive Break

Ben's taking a short breather and checking over his checklist when GASP disaster strikes! Whatever it is, it sure is getting him all flushed and bothered.

***

I don't know why but I kept messing up which layer to activate while exporting the variants that it took me an extra hour just to SAVE this whole thing properly. Tsk...there has to be a better way to organize layers for this alts t...

WIP: August Exclusive - Ben Bigger

So not gonna lie, it took a HOT MINUTE for me to figure out how exactly I wanna draw Ben but we're here now!

Okay one thing that you might have noticed is that compared to previous exclusives, this one has alts to it, yay! See, the problem I was having with the previous exclusive scheme (wherein I only upload sneak peeks of the image to the public) is twofold. One, I personally later found this to be rather unsatisfying since my ability to share my work in all of its glory is kind of ha...

Men of the Valley Update: Batch 2

Yay, we have the second batch out!

I was supposed to upload this here yesterday but man, I was so tired that I just couldn't so the patreon gets to be the last to receive word LOL. It shouldn't matter too much cuz I know most of you must've seen my posts on my socials anyway.

Anyhow, I would be remiss to not speak about the townie the completed the batch: George!

So like...am I the...

Men Of The Valley update: Gus

We be sprinting towards releasing that next mod update, I tell ya. So Gus yeah?

To be perfectly honest, this is the first of these portrait revamps that I personally don't see as an "upgrade". I was actually a little bit worried with having to redraw Gus cuz in my opinion, his portrait from the original was one of the best drawings from that set. Like, how could I possibly top that?

And having ...

Men Of The Valley Update: Willy

blink and you'll miss it~~

Been a while since we had this eh?

Yes, I am still gonna finish this portrait set, I swear! It's just a bunch of compounding factors why I haven't been able to continue working on this. Mostly because I'm such a slow artist so I have to be a tad more judicious about what I decide to spend time drawing on and turns out the portrait set got the short end ...

August Poll Winner!

Ben Bigger takes the cake! Woo!!!!🥳🎉

Funny cuz if you guys didn't saw, I ran this same poll on twitter and Von Lycaon actually won there! Hehe, I guess that just meant he has more mass appeal? Something tells me that has something to do with his wolfy nature...Well, I feel that's a conversation to be had in regards to the furry fandom's current state of affairs but MOVING ON!

As I've alluded to on the previous post, I was rooting for one of these two t...

August Poll

Yes we are doing it. For the August exclusive, I dare to ask:

WHO IS THE SUPERIOR FURRY!?!?!!?!?!!?

LOL yay for sensationalizing but yeah! I honestly don't know why I haven't done this sooner since these two have been just inescapable on every social media I go. Hehe, I do have a bias between them; care to guess which one? Not gonna confirm who though!

Either way, I'm gonna ...

July Exclusive: Kouhei - A Late Night Dip

Wherein we disturb a samurott out in the wilds...real close. Like, right between his legs 😲

***

Woo, I finally got this done!

I'd like to thank you guys again not only for supporting me here on the page but also letting me get away with doing something for an OC as an exclusive. Love you guys for it!

For next month, we're going back to my usual antics of doing fan art and I already have the perfect set of candidates for it! I know I said something about masked men ...

WIP: July Exclusive - Kouhei

Hello folks, WIP time!

Following the summer theme we have going on, I decided to have us see Kouhei cooling off in a shallow stream on a hot and humid night! Except I haven't drawn the water yet LOL. Oh and small detail: I dunno how I forgot to mention this at all before but as you can see here, one of his horns actually developed wrong! Well really, he was born with some kind of defect that caused it superseded his right eye; dude has real bad depth perception!

Sorry if t...

Samurott OC, Kouhei!

Notice: This is NOT this month's exclusive! I simply wanted to get a drawing of him out before the actual thing so you guys can have a little bit of context for the character. For funsies, I'll go through my design process as well as lore for him below! 😊

---------------------------------------------------

Conceptualizing the design

So right off the bat, I knew that I wanted my samurott OC to take heavy inspirati...

July Bonus Alt: Meowscles Massage

Why do I feel like I'm already late for the Steve bandwagon LOL. It's just been two weeks since he came out!

Misgivings about my punctuality aside, I did adore working on this piece for real; Steve and Meowscles were a delight! I'm actually thinking of going through some of the other fortnite skins and drawing them just for fun. Rippley, most of all. Love that slime fella!

Sometime in the futu...

July Poll Winner!

Yay, I get to make a new OC!!!

Just to be clear, I'm not gonna be making a gijinka Samurott. Rather, we're gonna go full on furry for this one!

LOL what a sentence 😆

Anyway, the image I have going on for this is more on the dilfy side of things. Like, a disheveled old man who's way past his glory days. A hidden master of sorts. Since I am gonna be using the hisuian variant, which has ronin vibes all over it, maybe rumor has it that he once was a renowned samuri whose rep...

WIP: Meowscles Massage

Yup, I like Steve enough to draw him hehe. And I'm being very slow as usual so kinda late to the party on this one ughhhhh. But at least I also get to draw meowscles eh?

I kinda did an oopsie and worked on this too much before uploading the wip here haha. Well, at least you all get to see it just a bit more rendered than what you would've normally have!

Oh and this one's gonna be a bonus for July by the way. Still trying to decide what alts I'll do for this, we'll see... 🤔 2024-06-30 16:50:58 +0000 UTC View Post

July Exclusive Poll

Okay another set of dudes to pick for next month!

So this one's a bit special since, as you might have noticed, I included an OC in the choices. Yup, if it ends up winning, I'll be making my very own Samurott character! I've seen a bunch of other artist make one and I thought it would be nice if I were to make one of my very own. But of course, don't let my desire to do some character designi...

June 2024 Exclusive: Senshi

Look what the waves brought in!

----------------------------------------------------------------------

So I had a little bit of dilemma with Senshi: his voluminous beard...was gonna cover his chest and belly! And I just can't have that you know 😣 Thankfully, I remembered seeing Ryoko Kui draw him with a shorter one in her modern day AU drawings of the cast which technically gives me the permission to trim it a little hehe. Well, I trimmed it a lot actually but hey at least we ...
