Does not actually feature any booty ☠
This was supposed to be my end of month sketch but I went too hard. Again. It keeps happening. I found myself drawing this one and just put on some colour because I just love beach stuff, and I just couldn't stop thinking "well if I put a bit more work in this part it'll look much nicer overall..."
Anyway, hopefully this lovely scene is a portend for the rest of summer. Inside I have ...
24 images and a fairly standard fare slideshow from start to finish, the notable feature of change here is you get to see me redraw most of her face after I drew it in nice crisp line art because I just wasn't satisfied with it, luckily the commissioner was much happier with the redraw, as was I, and I hope you are too! This set also shows off how I go about drawing alternative versions of images with things like facial adjustments and the consequent reconstruction; something I tend to try an...

This month's main feature:
Tyrande finds a Druid of questionable credentials giving out free blessings, and soon finds herself engaging in previously unknown rituals...
I've split the attachment into two files as these exceed the filesize limit otherwise, but I am still uploading the same amount of data; bureaucracy... Anyway inside you will find a notable number of variants, text/less versions, and if the thumbnail gave you any clues some versions with plen...
23 images.
This one was a really fun project for me and I think these shots present that well. Inside you'll get to see the two initial competing sketches, and then how the winning option morphs from something quite generic looking into something much more threatening and alien. At least that's what myself and the commissioner thought!
Commissioned by Dopepope.
This was intended as a sketch but I think I went too hard on it, again...
My take on everyone's favourite Dark Eldar. Nothing like an alien bath in a Commorragh penthouse right? Well for the sake of everyone's enjoyment I made this one maybe not altogether canon as that is some sort of water/oily substance she's dipping in, rather than blood.
Anyway, in the attachment you'll find coloured, black and white, and wet/dry versions for both...
If you've ever seen the game end screens for Zero mission, there are in my opinion a few that give a cursory glance into the world of Metroid; and actually give me the impression that Samus is in fact a bounty hunter, something that seems to be swept under the rug in most game narratives. Sort of.
So here is a fairly simple environmentally based sketch. Attachment includes line art, and a version with a neck accessory.
No process shots for this one unfortunately.
Enjoy.
Some amalgamated comparison shots which reduce the individual file count a bit on this one, but not the total amount of actual visual information. Also includes a number of discarded sketches which give some insight into what this set could have looked like, but ultimately didn't. Some progress on the alts are lacking as they don't show much which is fundamentally new or different, and by then I likely forgot to document the progress as I was too busy just finishing the piece: I'm sure we've ...

Commission.
The Teen Titans are sent to investigate a gloopy and abandoned warehouse following a fresh lead on the city's latest threat, but behind the stripped walls and leaking pipes the building's resident waits, ready to grab, or squeeze.
2 image set including the usual settings but also with varying alts, includes very squeezy tentacle bondage, and implied yet imminent activity.
Enjoy.
Though this does include a bit of drafting and drawing, this one is mostly an environmental piece so that's what is most documented here. I hope you find it interesting.

Instead of a sketch to start this month I balled out and just painted a complete picture instead. This is what I'd call more of an environmental piece than anything, but I hope you enjoy it anyway.
2024-05-06 23:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostSimple poll determining some unstated future projects, very likely to do with sketch posts.
Will run for about 24 hours.
Comes with free Moongirl bathwater
Titled 'Moongirl' rather than Luna because I decided to put in some imminent shadows in the background, though this piece really was just meant to focus on Luna. Attachment includes two versions with some notable differences though nothing too drastic.
Thank you to everyone who voted on the flash poll for this, and I hope everyone had a happy impromptu moon month.

Over twenty images depicting the development of this painting: Includes some nice views of early drafts versus more complete sketching along with editing, comparitive shots for decisionmaking purposes, some nice step by step progression shots of rendering for Mirana in general, but also some closeups of her face specifically. Finally, it includes the pictures used for the flash polls.
I hope you find it interesting.
This month's main feature sees Dota 2's Princess of the Moon Mirana out for an evening stroll under minotaur supervision: He must have levelled dex because look at those knots!
In the attachment you will find colour, line art, and the original sketch. I hope you enjoy it.

I didn't really expect to ball so hard on this one...
A fairly extensive development set here (for what was originally planned as a B&W sketch) with over twentyfive pictures documenting the entire drawing process quite comprehensively, with a fairly concise but clear portrayal of background painting, colouring, and a few examples of editing. Also includes the little tidbits used for the poll.
Enjoy.
2024-04-09 23:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostIt came to my attention that a number of people in North America enjoyed a solar eclipse recently, which makes this month being all about moongirls a very happy coincidence. I have therefore taken it as a sign from Selemene, and dedicated the last upload slot for this month to a small simple sketch of Luna with some typical Baddie.
Please then, cast your vote as to whom Luna should be paired with.
Vote will run for approximately a day.
And you thought it was just Mirana
This was originally planned to be a black and white sketch, then I added simple colour, then I kept adding more colour, and I mean c'mon what's a sporty summer picture without a beach?
Line art & colour versions, as well as a version with these catgirls collared.
Enjoy.
2024-04-06 23:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone, I hope you are excited and ready to praise Selemene this April! 🌙
(Selemene is the patron goddess of Mirana who will feature throughout this month)
(I am sure some of you knew that already... Why April? It's just coincidence)
Development snippets are now going up three days after their parent posts rather than a week later. Was this really worth a post? Probably not but at least you have a record now of when to expect these things.
A big thanks to everyone who made their submissions, I'll be evaluating those and sending out replies throughout this week.

This month's re-release is a lil piece I did of Widowmakeur quite a while ago, I just think it's a really pleasant picture and wanted to get you all excited for next month's beachy picture.
2024-03-28 02:23:26 +0000 UTC View PostA friendly reminder to let you know that commissions close in a little less than a week, you have until the 1st of April to submit your proposals. If you missed it you can read about it further in this post.
Thanks.

Seeing as everyone was asking where the restraints were, I'm going to go into a little bit more detail on that and let you all choose: I have put together a little illustration which should be somewhat indicative of how a final accessory will look, so please consider:
You are a baddie running a fun beach resort for holidaymaking heroines, which style of accessory do you make them wear for admission?
Please take a look at the attached image and cast your vote!

A flash poll for the dotards.
I am trying to keep it on model but I'm having a really hard time figuring out how large Mirana's bust is (Game Mirana not animation Mirana) so I figured I'd put up what will probably be a fairly pointless flash poll.
Please check the attached image, the running will last the best part of a night/morning whatever, multiple choice enabled.

This one went fairly smoothly but there are a fair few points of editing with things like redrawing poses, faces and expressions (though all during drafting thankfully), some perspective features, and even a rare picture I drew on my phone (which is actually how this set started!).
Enjoy.

Going far from home and looking for adventure is all good and well, but it doesn't pay the bills. Lux gets herself a job with some questionable individuals, only to find a somewhat familiar face there already...
Enjoy.
In case you didn't see my twitter post commissions are open.

I thought I'd get you all involved again to suppliment my small brain with this Patron's pick piece. I've got two backgrounds to show you and I'd like for you guys to choose one.
Poll will run for the rest of the day, not a full 24 hours but hopefully enough for people to vote and for me to wake up to a result.

I'm having trouble deciding, so I thought I'd let you guys choose. Take a look at the attached image and let me know which you think is best.
Poll will run for the best part of a day.

Some plot and backstory to Dopepope's original character Anterra.
I'd say the volume of work exceeds the typical amount I'd do for a sketch post, but I found myself enjoying the concept a lot and wanted to explore the character more. Consequently this set establishes some of Anterra's negotiating tactics as a high level diplomat, which appear to work quite well on her opposite representative from the tribe of rowdy Horsemen.
In the attachment you will find text/less, and line ar...
Let's decide how Mirana's Captor is (or isn't) dressed, and how professionally he can contain himself in front of this angry princess.
