Another Bunny Girl WIP: Yoko!

Here's another preview of the bunny girl sketch book I'm working on. (I'm thinking about calling it "Anime Bunny Waifu" as kind of a play on "Little Bunny Foo Foo", but I'm not sure how well the joke lands.) It' s Yoko Littner from Gurren Lagann!

This is, of course, is just a silly little gag. Could you imagine if Studio Trigger ever actually made a series where the mechs were designed like sexy waifus? And, like, maybe the pilots have to be in some sort of sex position to operate them....

Sailor Scouts Bunny Suits WIP

So my current "Damn, this seemed like a good idea at the time- What do you mean I still have seven more pages to go?" project is another sketch book, this time themed around anime girls in bunny girl costumes. It's a trope that comes up a lot, and I thought it would be a cute, fun project that will hopefully go over well at the couple of anime shows I have coming up. (Alas, I highly doubt this will be done in time for Animarathon, but I think I just might pull it off for Anime Ohio.)  2022-03-02 18:01:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Shipping Gnome Commission

I really would have sworn I had already posted this, but I apparently did not. This was a commission I did last December for a frequent client for a Christmas gift to her husband. I must have really been in the Christmas spirit at the time because I personally think it came out looking a bit Rankin/Bass, which was totally unintended but ended up being my favorite thing about it. 

NSFW Valentine's Day Cards

So I had the idea to make some naughty Valentine's Day cards, and I asked the folks over on my NSFW Twitter what characters they'd like to see. They picked Jade (Mortal Kombat), Amy Wong (Futurama), Roxanne (A Goofy Movie), Frankie Foster (Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends), Quorra (Tron 2), and Spider-Gwen (Into The Spider-verse). I had a lot of fun coming up with the cheesy text to put on each card. I'm especially proud ...

Daredevil Sketches

So, yeah, I'm acutely aware of the fact that I've really been neglecting my Patreon lately, and for that I apologize. As most of you probably already know, it's been a rather difficult couple of months for me, starting with the death of one of our dogs, then a car accident that I'm still waiting for insurance to pay me back for, and now most recently my dad being diagnosed with cancer. On the more positive side of things, I had my final con of the year (which, if I'm being honest, was rather ...

World's Goodest Boys

Krypto the Super Dog and Ace the Bat Hound! 

.

Update: (Warning, this is going to get sad, so maybe stop reading if you aren't in a good headspace or whatever.) So, this post was originally scheduled to go up yesterday. I decided to delay it, though, because on Monday morning our dog Buster passed away. I guess we'd had him for about 10 years, but it somehow feels like it's been much longer and, tragically, much less. Understand, if you don't know me or my family ver...

Hands-on Harley Quinn

You might have seen in my Cincy Expo sketch post that I did one particular sketch card of Harley Quinn getting a .... *ahem* helping hand from Poison Ivy. Well, I really liked the idea - plus I've been trying for a while now to think of a replacement for an old Harley/Ivy print I used to have but retired a while back - so I decided to re-draw it as a full on finished print, and I think it came out pretty awesome. For her face, I tried to go for a blend of the Margot Robbie movie version and t...

Cincy Comic Expo 2021 Sketches

The Cincinnati Comic Expo  was this past weekend and it was a lot of fun! I got to hang out with several old friends and meet a bunch of new folks and, of course, get a lot of sketching in! Mostly it was a lot of sketch cards, but on Sunday I got to take part in my first ever Sketch Duel! For those of you that don't know (because I basically didn't right up until I was actually doing one, lol), a sketch duel is a bit like a panel where they get a handful of artist up on stage and the aud...

I want to go to there...

So I took another Bob Ross class this weekend. I have ... very mixed feelings about it!

Okay, so first of all, painting-wise, I think this one turned out a lot better than the last one I did. Honestly, the pictures here don't do it justice. Just something about the glare and the way my phone captured the pictures, it looses a lot of detail in the background trees. That being said, I still have some issues with the final image. This time, however, it mostly has ...

Tan Lines

The second of the major projects that have been keeping me busy this month was an art book I was suddenly inspired to do that I've dubbed "Tan Lines". The premise of the book is that all of the wild, skimpy costumes worn by various comic book, video game, and other pop-culture characters would lead to some very interesting tan lines, so I decided to do a pin-up book showing them off. I tell ya, this project was soooo much fun, and what I've posted here is just a sample of what's included. The...

Island Dreams 2

So, on the Island Dreams project I mentioned, we were actually encouraged to include sexy beach babes, and I was happy to oblige.  So here are the more mature cards I did.

What I've been up to...

Hey, everybody! So I know I haven't post here in a while and I just wanted to let you know what's been going on. First, my day job has been a little bit crazy lately. I got a promotion that turned out to be a bit more than I expected, mostly due to my boss quitting shortly after right as a lot of the other assistant managers were taking their vacations, so it's been a real fight just to keep my head above water. Luckily that's starting to calm down a little bit, though there have still been a...

All Might Commission Sign

So I'm now 2 conventions deep into this new post-COVID-but-not-really world and it has been a mixed bag to say the least. That's a whole rant in and of itself, but for now I'll just say that I've decided to use the handful of cons that I have in the back half of 2021 as a time to really think about how I do shows and what things I'd like to change or improve. For instance, I've decided to retire probably about 2/3 of my old prints and focus on newer stuff. I'm also going to try only doing tak...

Samus Aran: "See You Next Mission" (NSFW)

If the bikini is considered "the good ending", would you consider this "the happy ending"?

Hey, if I'm doing alternate versions anyway, I knew this had to happen too! lol

Samus Aran: "See You Next Mission"

I've always considered myself a fan of Metroid, but until recently, I'd never actually beaten any of the games. (Got about half way through Fusion when it first came out, but I got stuck on that damn spider boss.) So when they announced "Metroid: Dread" at this years E3, I resolved to play through the main-line series to prepare.* As such, I've been a little obsessed with Metroid lately, and naturally I had to draw something for it! And inspired by the different endings you can get based on y...

Painted Clock

Today is my dad's birthday, and he's really into clocks. He's also been surprisingly sportive of my painting, so I decided to paint him a clock! I haven't actually given it to him yet, but I think he's going to like it!

Twitch Stream (6/29/21) - Tommy Oliver

Tonight I'll be working on a Tommy Oliver, AKA: the Green Power Ranger, trading card on my Twitch stream from 6 - 8. Be sure to stop by and say hello! 

Is it still a happy little accident...

... if you technically did everything correctly, but the "right way" just ended up looking bad?

I took another Bob Ross painting class this weekend, this time returning to the local one I did earlier this year that produced what remains my favorite painting I've done so far. Unfortunately, I don't think it worked out as well this time around as I'm not really all that happy with how this one turned out. Those background trees just are NOT doing it for me. And this isn't me being overly ...

Lady Dimitrescu

This was another in my "oh, crap, cons are back!" scramble to create new art to sell at shows, and by far it was the most last-minute. Last Thursday, the day before I was set to leave for the show, it occurred to me that I didn't have anything of the Internet's new favorite giant steppy monster mommy, AKA Lady Dimitrescu from Resident Evil VIII.  That just seemed like leaving money on the table, so I decided to do something real quick.

And I'll admit, it's definitely on the "simple...

Distracted Robin

How do you do, fellow kids? Do you like memes?

I actually started this about a year ago on a Twitch stream, but like a solid chunk of the art I start - especially on streams - I kind of forgot about it and never finished. Flash forward to a a week or two ago. I'm looking down the barrel of my first post-Covid con, realizing how little I've created in the year off* and desperate to generate some new stuff to sell. The unfinished file for this one happened to catch my attention and I deci...

Catwoman: If heroes "don't do that", find villians ...

Just some gals helping a pal when the boyfriend comes up short.

A dumb joke based on the recent "Harley" interview.

Hai, Kazuma desu

Last and certainly most least of my Konosuba card set, it's Kazuma!

Okay, I shit on him because that's honestly part of the gag with this show, and he is a lesser character in that all of the other characters on the show are so great, but I actually do like him, and he ended up being more fun to draw than I expected. 

Just The Right Amount of Pink Energy

(For anyone that doesn't get the title's reference.)

So it's my birthday today (for about another 20 minutes as I write this), but because of my family's various schedules, we aren't really celebrating it until tomorrow. Still, I wanted to do something fun and self-indulgent, so I decided to have an impromptu Picarto stream tonight and draw a sexy Kimberly Heart, AKA: the original Pink Ranger. I've draw ...

Darkness!

Part three of my Konosuba card set and the last of the main girls. I really could stop here and probably be okay, but I'm still going to try and get Kazuma done anyway. (Even though I'd probably do better sales with Wiz, Yunyun, or even Eris, but he is the protagonist, I guess....) 

Megumin!

Part 2 of my Konosuba card set; it's Megumin!

This one ended up testing my whole "how they see themselves vs how they actually are" concept because Megumin basically wears all of her emotions on her sleeve. While the rest of the party members try to mask what selfish idiots they are, what you see is more or less what you get when it comes to the Crimson Demon. If anything, I think the background on this one may be how others see her: a deranged little psycho that just wants to ...

Lady Aqua

Some things never change. Despite having well over a year to make new stuff to sell at cons, I'm just a few weeks away from my first post-COVID show (Anime Ohio) and I'm scrambling to get some new stuff done. Because it just wouldn't be a con without me waiting until the last second do stuff! lol

This is the first in a planned series of Konosuba trading cards. (I'm trying to go in order of general popularity, bec...

May Picarto Art

Wow. May put my Wednesday Picarto streams into overdrive with it's theme of "Animated MILFs"! Since it was all relatively simple "cartoon-y" designs, I was able to color about two images per stream! And the theme, of course, left me with plenty of inspiration. I actually had a couple more ideas that I didn't quite have time to get to, so there may be a few more spiritual bonus images to this set down the line. 

Mob!

So "Mob Psycho 100" and "Konosuba" tied on my What To Draw On Twitch poll yesterday, but I figured Mob Psycho's style is so simple (it's done by the same guy who did One Punch Man, after all) that I would be able to fit in at least a little bit of both. To my own surprise, however, I ended up going a bit harder on the Mob sketch than I expected and it ended up taking up the whole stream plus a little bit of time afterwords. Sorry, Lady Aqua, perhaps you'll get a chance to show off your party ...

Tuesday Twitch Poll

So I felt like putting up a poll to help me decide what to draw on Twitch this evening. I have an anime show coming up here in about a month, so it's all anime themed, but I limited it to some of my personal favorites that tend to get overlooked in these polls.

Be sure to stop by my Twitch channel tonight from 6-8 EST to see who wins!

A Perfect Piece of Art...

And if in 12 years someone that no one's ever heard of on a website that no one has cared about in ages DARES to question it's greatness, I will sick a legion of sycophantic fans upon them until that person is harassed off of the internet! You know, like a real pro.

So, yeah, that 12 year old Spider-Man cover with Mary Jane sitting kinda funny is in the news again because someone on Tumblr did a re-draw of it and J Scott Campbell decided to shit himself over it. 2021-05-12 17:00:06 +0000 UTC View Post
