Well, I tried...

...to make this the last reward for January, but I didn't finish it in time, so it's the first one for February.

I pulled out a photo of a physique-woman sitting on a stool from the pics I've been hovering up from the intarwebz lately, and decided it would make the basis for a cool Satin Steele drawing. So... here it is!

January 2021 Q and A!

Here it is!

I hope you find these offerings entertaining and informative. And if you're inspired to submit a question for the February installment, of course drop it in the comments below.

And a bonus...

I mention in the video that I wrote a prequel to the first Tetsuko comic, detailing the week or so before Tetsuko's fateful encounter with Slade, Winston and the Formula. I posted it in five parts at my DeviantArt gallery; but I also promised in the video th...

It's that time again...

...time for questions for the Q and A video!


I've already got three, but I can always use more! So if there's anything you want to ask about almost anything - my art, my characters, I think you get the idea - leave 'em in the comments below.

...let's see... [checks calendar] January 26, a Tuesday, will be the cutoff date; that should give me from then 'til the weekend to shoot and edit so that the video can drop Saturday the 30th.

Looking forward to your questions...

(NSFW) Sonya x Tetsuko 8

Just as I promised in the December 2020 Q and A video, here's the latest installment of hot Sonya-x-Tetsuko action! (At least I hope you find it hot...)

You can imagine what Tetsuko's doing to Sonya to get her to make that face; or you don't have to imagine, you can download the full-size, uncropped pic at the usual link below!

Head's up on charge up front

Just a note to let you know that later today, Friday, January 1st 2021, I'll be changing my billing method to "charge up front".

What this means, is that a new sponsor will be charged up front for their monthly access, then will be(just as present sponsors are) charged on the first of the next month for the next month's sponsorship. For example: let's say "Sonya" joins my "Loyal Fan" tier for $1 a month on the 10th. At the time she joins, she'll be charged that $1 for t...

December 2020 Q and A!

This is likely my last post for 2020, so let me take this opportunity to once again wish you all a Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas!

Tetsuko - side chest pose

Aside from the classic "double biceps" - which is Tetsuko's favorite pose to hit, as well as my favorite to draw - I haven't drawn Tetsuko in very many bodybuilder poses.

One of the reasons for that is, she's not really a "bodybuilder", in that her superhuman strength and massive muscularity were not the result of years of heavy training, nd she doesn't pursue a career of physique competition. In fact, Tetsuko feels a lot of admiration for the women who have built their bodies ...

Question time? Question time!

I'm working toward posting the next Q and A video on or before the 28th (a Monday), so this is your chance to submit questions - about me, my art, my characters, almost anything - for me to respond to.

Saturday the 26th will be the last day I'll be checking for questions, so that i can get the video shot and edited for the hoped-for 26th drop.

I'm looking forward to your contributions! (And speaking of contributions... look for new art, either tonight or tomorrow!)

(NSFW) New Tetsuko pic!

It's ten days into December; time I posted something, huh?

I saw this pic of Andrea Osorio a couple of weeks ago, and something about the pic made me think it'd make a good basis for a Tetsuko drawing... so here she is!

2020 November Q&A!

Looking through my Q&A video archives, I see that this video is tied with the November 2019 video (just a year ago) for most questions taken, at ten for each video. (Must be something about Novembers...)

Anyway. I may do a post (if I can keep it in mind to) involving "Q&A Trivia!". Most questions taken; fewest questions taken; longest; shortest, etc. ...or maybe not: I got art to do! Stories to write!

Aaaanyway: if you have a question for the December edition, by all means...

Tetsuko in lingerie

Wanted to get at least one more pic posted before the end of the month. (And, I hope, even another one after the Q & A video drops.

Tetsuko isn't really into lingerie; most times she'll just wear a tank top and panties to sleep in (when she's not sleeping naked). And her boyfriends - past and current - don't want her to go to the trouble of changing into sexy lingerie if it's not going to stay on long anyway...

It's that time of the month!

...no, not that "time of the month!" Sheesh...

It's the middle of the month, which means it's time for questions for the November Q and A video! I've got two already, but there's room for more. Got a question about me, my characters, my work... almost anything's fair game! Leave them in the comments below.

I'm going to try to post the finished video on or before Wednesday, the 24th (the day before Thanksgiving), so I think I'll set the deadline for your q...

(NSFW) More Tetsuko chain breaking - two pics

I just can't stay away from images of Tetsuko breaking chains with the intense pressure of her powerfully-flexed muscles... even though drawing the chains is a real chore!

This time, I decided to take a "before and after" approach to the subject. What you see up there at the top of the post is a crop of the "before" pic - with the chains wrapped tightly around her mighty chest. The uncropped, full-size version (01A) is available at the usual link at the bottom.

And the "after" pic...

October Q and A is here!

It would've dropped yesterday, but it took a little longer to make than I anticipated.

For one thing, I almost overlooked two questions that were submitted for this video. I'd already shot the footage I thought I needed, and was in the middle of editing and post-production, when I went back to my Patreon notifications and found two questions I hadn't see before. So... set the camera again, write out my response and load them onto the Teleprompter app in my iPad, and shoot some more. (Yo...

Wednesday is shooting day

...or at least that's the plan.

I'll shoot and edit the October Q and A on Wednesday the 28th, and also (if things go well) post it that evening; otherwise it drops on Thursday.

I hope you'll enjoy it!

(NSFW) Tetsuko - bicep close-up

This started as a practice sketch; then I looked at i and thought, "Hmm. I bet my Patrons of Strong-Girl Art would like to see this drawing finished in color." So I did. And here she is!

I'll be posting low-res versions of this drawing at my other social-media outlets, but only you get the full-size version, and only here!

Question Time!

Almost let it slip my mind... it's the middle of the month... and if you've been sponsoring me for awhile you know what that means!

For those who are just joining us: every month I make a Question and Answer (Q & A) video, that's usually released in the last couple of days of the month. My subscribers submit questions they'd like to see answered in the video - questions about me, my characters, my comics and other projects - almost anything*. I solicit the questions in the middle of...

(NSFW) The third Charlotte - nude (2 versions)

(I'm assuming you've already seen this post, and I don't have to explain what I mean by "third Charlotte", right?)

I was almost finished with this pic, but was stuck on a final detail: should I have her wear a G-string to cover her "lady parts"? And if I should decide to just have her go nude - hair nude or shaved nude? Decisions, decisions...

Well, the wonderful thing about modern graphic programs like...

(NSFW) The third Charlotte

(NOTE: "NSFW" because she's not wearing a top, even though you can't see nipples or genitals.)

No, not that there are three Charlottes*; this is the finished piece based on the remaining sketch I banged out for the July Q & A. (The other two are here and 2020-10-12 17:30:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Charlotte unbuttoned

Here's the second full-color rendition of three sketches I did for a recent Q and A video. (If you're a $5/mo. subscriber, you can see the first color drawing here.)

I plan to finish the third one before the end of the month.

(NSFW) Tetsuko - rear nude

I tried a slightly different approach this time. Instead of inking with black lines, I used dark brown for the figure lines and a lighter brown for the hair lines. (I'll have to try a different approach with the hair, or go back to using the same color line for body and hair.)

September Q and A is here!

Just click on that cheesy smile up there!

And if you're inspired to ask a question for the October video - not too early to be thinking about the October video! - please leave it (or them, if ya got more than one) down there in the comments.

Gonna try to get one more pic finished and posted before the end of the month.

(NSFW) A "new" Charlotte drawing

Hey, remember in the July Q & A video, I included three sketches of Charlotte as part of the answer to a question? One of them was this one:

It had always been my intention to do fully-rendered illustrations out of those sketches. And since this was my personal favorite of the three, this was the one I decided to finish first:

I'm planning to drop the September Q & A on Monday, the 28th, if all goes well. There's one important component I need, though, to make that happen...

Namely, questions! (Can't have answers if there are no questions, amirite?)

(NSFW) KFT #1 page 14

It seems to happen to me a lot, especially lately: I finish a page (such as this one, Kaijuu Fighter Tetsuko #1 page 14), then debate whether to post it by itself, or wait until the next page(s) are also done (usually because it complete a scene).

I thought about that for this page as well, because there isn't a lot happening on this page. I considered finishing the next couple of pages before showing this page since that would finish the sequence of Tetsuko's first conscio...

Nataliya

...and here she is, in living color! Nataliya Kuznetsova (AKA Nataliya Amazonka)

I have trouble rendering likenesses of real people in my style, but I think I got the closest here that I think I've gotten so far.

I'm proud of the fact that, although I did use photo reference (quelle surprise, right?), this isn't  direct copy of one photo. I combined the pose off one photo and reference of physique detail off a couple of others.

Nataliya WIP

If you watched the August Q & A video posted this past weekend, you know that I promised a drawing of the Russian bodybuilder/powerlifter Nataliya Kuznetsova (AKA "Nataliya Amazonka") this week. Here's a preliminary sketch showing my progress toward keeping that promise.

Look for the finished (hi-res! color!) work later this week!

Say "goodbye" to the beard (for now)

As I said in a recent Q & A video ...let me check: yes, it was the June video... I told you I'd be shaving off the beard when I returned to my job at Disney World. (It was still intact for the July video, because at that time Disney had indeed reopened, but my job hadn't been reinstated yet, so I decide to keep Da Beard a little bit longer.)

Well... I've been called back to work. The portrait/caricature stand in the Magic Kingdom resumes operation tomorrow (Monday 8/24); my shift wi...
