Hey, remember this pic of Sonya and Charlotte posing nude together? And how I teased that there might be more pics coming from that "photo shoot"? Well, here you go!
I have quite a collection of photos of two women posing together in various stages of undress, so this may not be the last of the "Sexy Sisters" series...

For those who are new here: I produce a video - usually about 10 to 15 minutes in length -during which I answer questions submitted by you, the patrons of my site here. They can be questions about me, my artwork, my working methods, my characters - almost anything. (I avoid questions about politics, because it's such a divisive topic.)

Actually, it's three animated "somethings" (plus a still frame). The original concept was simply this: Cynthia (Starburst) Robinson flexing her bicep:

One more post before the month ends...
I've had a photo of my current favorite bodybuilder, Aleesha Young, in this pose for quite a while. It's a pose i've liked since I saw it, and immediately thought it would make a nice reference for a drawing of Tetsuko in that pose. Well, I finally broke down and did the drawing, and decided to share it with you.
A couple of days ago, I posted 2022-04-01 00:47:50 +0000 UTC View Post
I think I'm finally getting the hang of these videos - I started shooting the video this afternoon , and it's already posted!
I'm trying out a new feature for the series - you'll find out what it is when you watch the video.

I actually haven't decided yet whether Cynthia is the type (as Charlotte Gannon definitely is) to allow herself to be photographed in sexy lingerie, or semi-nude (or even fully nude). But I think that might make an interesting story: what would happen if Cynthia decides, on a whim, to accept the invitati...

Here's the February 2022 edition of the Patreon Q & A.
As the post title says, it's short - a little over 8 minutes long, as contrasted to the comparative marathon 16-to-20-minute videos I've posted in the past. Mostly because there were only four questions this time, and they could be answered pretty briefly.
Give it a looks, and let me know what you think, please.

Not long ago, Dr. Sonya Gannon heard her cellphone ring. She recognized the ringtone: Charlotte! Well, your timing is perfect, sis. I was just finishing up for the day.
After a minute or two of "touching base" and general chatting, Charlotte got to the point of her call. "One of my photographers, Dick Cummings, saw the layout you did a few years ago for that men's magazine, and got an idea for a pictorial. He wants to shoot both of us for a 'Sexy Sisters' feature!"

I haven't drawn Charlotte in a while, and I also haven't drawn her "doing her job" as a pin-up model often enough. So here she is striking a sexy pose in a glittery purple bikini
I tried a new method this time: going straight to color from the rough sketch, without refining or inking the sketch first. I think it turned out pretty good, considering I used this method as a way to try to save some time.
Also! I recorded a timelapse video of the process. It's 30 seconds long, so if yo...

And the obvious question will be... "Guess who got a green screen for Christmas?"
It's something I've wanted for a while, in order to add more visual interest to my videos - like the "virtual art gallery" I used as the backdrop for this installment.
But I discovered there are tradeoffs. By embracing green screen effects, I've apparently sacrificed the ability to overlay additional graphics over the main image, such as when I talk about a drawing I've done, and it appeared on the s...

I was tempted to wait for the next couple of pages to be finished before posting this one, in order to get past the "talky" "character-building" scenes in Sonya's lab before we get to the "good stuff" (Tetsuko's fight with the monster).

Time was ticking down for me to create a new drawing for you "Patrons of Strong-Girl Art" for December. I was about to do yet another Starburst piece, but I've been drawing her so much lately that I thought maybe you'd like to see something different.
So the other night I was changing the wallpaper for the home screen on my iPad; I decided on the first Marissa of Mars pic I'd done some years ago. And it hit me: I haven't drawn Marissa in awhile.

When I targeted today (Monday 11/29) as the day for posting the November Q and A video, I didn't realize I'd be getting it in just under the wire.
But I spent a lot more time on doing up special art for this video than I normally do... and then had to go back and edit those when the aspect ratios didn't match. This was all for Question 4, which (I believe, haven't actually gone back to check) might be the longest answer to a question I've ever done. It takes up about 10 minutes of the 2...

Yeah, I've been "a bit" obsessed with Starburst lately. So when it came time to do a new drawing for you "Patrons of Strong-Girl Art", I deliberately went to someone I haven't drawn much in the past couple of months - Tetsuko!
And she was so happy to finally be featured in an illustration - until she saw the caption I'd put on the drawing. "Omigod, Papa-chan, you finally do a drawing of me, and then you put on a caption that makes me sound like a slut!"

This is just for you Patreon sponsors until Jan. 2, 2022.
The trickiest part of this color version was the background. That's the dressing room/pump-up room backstage at the Ms. Ultima contest. My idea was that each contestant gets her own table and mirror for keeping her things, applying or touching yup makeup, etc. That's why the little taped sign over the mirror indicating this is Satin's table.
Enjoy!
