April 2023 Deluxe Poll

Hi everyone,

Here's this month's deluxe poll:

I'll make a short 1-page comic for the top choice on this poll. The Cloud/Tifa and Mitsuki/Inko options will feature both characters together.

Same rules as always: Poll ends in a week, you can vote for multiple options, I break any ties.

Thanks!

March 31 Update and Previews

Hi everyone.

I have some updates and art previews as well.

I'll start with the previews:

First up is DGDO Page 5. This page has a lot of booty, you can see one there.

Second is an addition to this week's lineup: a NSFW themed sheet of reference sketches for Poste. There's 4 sketches t...

Behind-the-Scenes March 2023 Week 5: Part 2

Hi Deluxe everyone.

Here's updates WIPs and a new WIP for this week's artwork.

1. DGDO Page 5: I did some more rendering all around and added some background detail to some panels (behind the mirror reflection in panel 2 and the bedroom in panel 4). I also adjusted the colors in panel 4 to make Poste blend in more with the dim room. I did this by tuning the previous colors more toward blue with a multiply layer. I also drew Poste's hat in panel 1 breaking out of the panel frame an...

Art Tip: Eyebrows III, Emotion and Design

Hi everyone,

Here's some more art notes on eyebrows with OC examples.

Eyebrows are a big part of showing emotions in a face, along with the mouth second and eyes third. They can also add a lot to a character design, as I hopefully show case with the Ivy, Del, and Poste examples.

Any question or art tip requests? Let me know.

Thanks again.

March 27 Update and Previews

Hi Everyone,

Time for the weekly update:

The DGDO comic poll ended on Saturday. Here are the results:

It was really close, only a 1 vote difference, but Scorching Spice takes it and that's what Poste will wear on the beach trip. To keep things moving, I'll design something for Del.

This week, I'll be working on Page 5 of DGDO and Page 2 for the Tsunade comic. Here's a sneak pe...

Behind-the-Scenes March 2023 Week 5: Part 1

Hi Deluxe everyone.

Here's WIPs for this week's art that I was able to work on this weekend.

1. DGDO Page 5: I started sketching this early Saturday, but had to wait until the poll was finished to finalize the panels and start coloring, but I was able to get base colors down with some shading started. I still have to add a few things here and there, like Poste's bikini top in the third panel since it's supposed to be her taking off her bikini before going to bed.

2. The Lege...

Art Survey March 2023

Hi everyone.

It's time for this month's art survey. If you're feeling up to it, you can vote for your favorite artworks from the past few weeks. This helps me decide what to make in the future. I'll have previews at the bottom.

There were a lot of comics this month, since I kept up my weekly pace. I'm especially curious on which comics were most liked, so make sure to vote for all your favorites since you can vote for multiple.

Thanks!

March 2023 Week 4 Timelapse

Hi everyone.

Here's the downloadable timelapse video for this week's NSFW Ivy pinup. It's attached to this post.

Just a head's up, the video editor rendered the colors wrong for some reason. I tried finding a fix but couldn't so I'll try to find a different editor for future videos.

Anyway, enjoy the timelapse.

Thanks!

March 24 Update and Previews

Hi everyone.

I have updates and previews today. I'll start with previews:

So the big art project for this week is the Monthly Tsunade art. The poll during the second week of the month determined a NSFW comic titled "Tsunade the Legendary Sucker." I worked on page 1 this week, and I plan to release more pages in the following weeks.

Behind-the-Scenes March 2023 Week 4: Part 2

Hi Deluxe everyone.

Here's updated WIPs for this week's artwork.

1. Naked Apron Ivy Painting. I got colors down and started lighting. I still have to go through the rest of the lighting phase (subsurface scattering, fresnel lighting, ambient occlusion, etc), but I have the main shadow and highlights down. I still need to add the cum alt and post process.

2. Tsunade the Legendary Sucker Page 1. I got backgrounds done and started lighting the figures. Same as above, I have the...

Art Tip: Eyebrows I and II

Hi everyone,

Here's some tips for drawing eyebrows. Eyebrows are pretty flexible so there's lot of ways you can approach them, but these are things I keep in mind when I draw.

If you've got any questions or art tip requests, let me know.

Thanks!

March 20 Update

Hi everyone.

Just a few update for now:

On Saturday, I posted a poll to choose Poste's bikini for the comic. Someone asked if all the bikinis are as revealing as Option B (Scorching Spice), and I can confirm that they are. You can vote here if you haven't yet: https://www.patreon.com/posts/dgdo-comic-poll-80186726

Behind-the-Scenes March 2023 Week 4: Part 1

Hi Deluxe Everyone.

Here's WIPs for this week's art.

1. Naked Apron Ivy Pinup. I made a mini comic for Ivy last week and I wanted to do one last naked apron artwork but more lewd. A patron also submitted a drawing suggestion on the discord "Messy Ivy (covered in cum)." I wanted to do that last month when they suggested it but I got lost in the other content, so I'll be adding a cum alt to this one. I have the lines done but no color yet. Time was a little short this weekend but I'...

Hi everyone,

Here's the new page of Delivery Girls' Day Out (DGDO). It features a vote on which bikini Poste will wear for her beach trip.

March 17 Update and Previews

Hi everyone.

I've got previews and some updates.

But first, I noticed an increase in new people here lately. I'm guessing it's from the comics that I started making this year. I've had more than a few people tell me they're really enjoying the comic projects so far, which is good because I've got a lot more coming. I've been on that weekly comic pace (with pinups and animations mixed in) and I don't plan to stop. So thank you all again for enjoying the work I do!

Lewd Rosa Animation

Hi everyone,

I finished this month's animation: Sloppy Toppy Rosa. Rosa was always intended to be my lewdest OC.

This one took a little longer than I thought because I animated it in a few parts and with way too many layers to count. The head alone has 15 layers, but it's also the most complex part of the animation with the hair, bow, bun, mouth, and lips all animated independently. But overall, I'm happy with the sense of movement in this one. I also added some slight blur and bl...

Behind-the-Scenes March 2023 Week 3: Part 2

Hi Deluxe everyone.

Here's updated WIPs for the comic pages.

1. Sexy Cooking with Ivy. I added color and started lighting all around. I also added the word "chichona" on her apron. It's a word for a woman with big breasts in spanish. Also a little bit of a narration in place of dialogue. I'd like these mini comics to be a way for me to give more personality/background details for my OCs. In this case, Ivy never misses breakfast, she likes chilaquiles, and she wouldn't mind having ...

Here's this weeks art drop:

2-4: Delivery Girls' Day Out Page 3. The third page of DGDO. I separated the 1st panel as it's own drawing (1) so you can better appreciate the booty, and (2) to make a funny alternate scene. I also separated the 3rd panel to also make a funny alternate scene and to show off the cover of the hentai manga Del is reading. Expect Page 4 next week.
