Up Next

Hey everyone! I’ve been back at my day job so my time has been pretty strapped this week. Sorry for the slow updates as a result. I’ve wrapped up the second Grace and Nelle pic and have that Creature Comforts pic underway currently.

I’m planning to probably keep a little more OC focus aside from things already in progress like that Dragalia sequence I started last month. I also wanted to get another art tip update with some accompanying pictures before the month is over, its a bit...

Kawaiidebu’s Art Essentials Guide - Introduction

Hey everyone! Attached in this post is the text intro to my ongoing series of art tips, suggestions, and instructions. 

This first post is text based and pretty conceptual. If you’re more interested in visual guides using art I plan to make those in the future. This gets a little more into art theory and practice. I tried to keep it accessible and articulate some of my perspective based on the years of art education I received and other books I’ve read on the subject since scho...

Creature Comforts 2020

Was thinking maybe the Cyclops gal is named Christy? Kristy? Maybe the big beast man that isn’t in this one is named Mack?

Working on colors for this.

Back at work, Etc.

Hey everybody! Well, my FMLA is over and I’m back at the day job. This means things will likely shift to a little more activity on weekends as before, but not necessarily all the time. My next efforts will be to finish up our Ofdice Gals having their sleepover, but I’m also interested in revisiting some other old characters, the Cyclopes girl and Best guy from Creature Comforts. Sort of inspired to do a bit more of a bottom-heavy look on the cyclops....

Anyhow, here’s hoping I can...

Developing the Office Drinking Pals.

Heya folks. So I’m planning on developing the Office Drinking pals a little more, which mostly means I’ll probably have a few more pics with them. For starters I decided on names for them, and a bit of background I may try and convey in a pose sheet for each or maybe single page comics, etc. I’ll do a little infodump here and if you have ideas or things you may wanna see you can let me know.

The taller, blonde office gal is Nelle Bluhen. She’s a big beer fan and has a bit of a g...

Fourth of Jul-Ivy 2

Had to squeeze Frank in. HAD TO! One other idea besides this one. I’ll see if I can manage.

Fourth of Jul-Ivy 1

Gonna do a bit with Pamela and Harley I think...

Power

Power from the manga Chainsaw Man. It’s a fun read.

Updated To Draw List and plans

Hey everyone!

A few updates leading to the end of month rollover! Theres always a little natural attrition of patrons month over month, so if you have to bid adieu I understand!

In a journal earlier this month I talked about maybe suspending the charge for July but I didn’t really have the decline in art production I expected, so hopefully you all don’t mind if I leave the charges in place as they're pretty low... (I think).

I also wanted to share a bit of an updated dra...

Gudako

Apropos of nothing I did a random request for the Female Master from Fate GO.

Just a quick and dirty sketch.

Grace and Nelle’s morning after

Things have... escalated?

ill try and wrap this one up quick if I can...

Obviously got a little distracted with Harley and Ivy, but I had a little revision for anatomy’s sake on these gals.

Colors and background soon. Probably something a little painterly.

Also thought they needed real names unlike most of my gals. The blonde is Nelle, and the brunette is Grace.

Update! Slow and steady... blocked out the major color groups, will get to painting it properly soon...

Cowgirl Claire

wanted to knock a rough sketch out tonight, may clean up in the future.

Feedee Shindan - Idle-Minded

More Shindan shenanigans. Roughs for now. A few other sketches and things should be wrapped before the end of the month!

Colors tomorrow! Should work on the office gals too.

Feedee Shindan - Lewdsona

Some more fun with Feedee Life Shindan results. Lewdsona was interested in seeing my interpretation of their results. I may potentially offer this as a type of commission down the line...

Nadine and Linnea’s Foodie Travelblog

Two super cute new Dragalia gals. Gonna do a second page besides this, and eventually clean it up + color.

Feedee Shindan - Daisy and Kdubs

A pic with some characters made from the Your Feedee Life Shindan.

OPOCs - Clorena

(OPOCs = Other People’s Original Characters)

Clorena is a recent and I’m guessing somewhat joking OC made by the always talented Poundforpoundcake.

I hope none of you have a phobia of clowns.

Beachside Garmine

AkaFA’s cutie of an OC, Garmine. Bemused by someone’s attempts to get fresh.

Some personal updates

Hey everyone! As usual everyone has my sincere thanks and appreciation that you continue to support my work. it means a lot and at this point many of you have continued in your support for a pretty long time now!

I wanted to share some slightly more personal news.

Recently a number of factors have built up an increase of stress and anxiety for me. A lot of it is tied to my day job, along with some underlying health issues, in addition to other obvious global events. I’ve never r...

Feedee Life Shindan

Drawing based off the results of that Shindan "Your Feedee Life" I posted before.

Fun for generating random characters.

Your Feedee Life

Random bit of fun I poured a little time into today. The descriptions I think are fairly fun and can act as a character generator if nothing else.

Not my usual content but maybe you’ll enjoy it! May do art inspired from results in the near future.

Office Cake

Cakecatboy’s character in my... typical office antics.

Office Goth Thick

Early rough sketch. Wanted to see I’d I can convey a goth AND office look. Featuring my familiar Goth lady.

Somewhat inspired for a new Image Pack...

So I’ve really been enjoying "My next life as a Villainess: All paths lead to doom!" A new anime from this season, based on some light novels. The main character is very charming and has a cute design, I also like most of the supporting cast.

But anyhow the main character is this girl named Catarina who has a big sweet tooth, but she’s usually held back by her sensitive stomach.

I’ve been mulling over the idea of putting together big sequence based on the show. I would proba...

Happy Hour

Some office gal pals walking back from happy hour. Based on a suggestion from W00T.

Loose plans May/June

Hey all! Been a crazy couple of months! I’ve gotten a tidy little sum of pics wrapped in the past few, but the day job has really been kicking my ass otherwise.

I wanted to give sort of a loose road map of things to expect as we close out May and head into June.

For one, I put together an intro post for upcoming art tips and technique posts. I was hesitant to share because it’s really just text, but I think it will help if you wanted to give it a quick read. I’ll post that o...

Kodama Amagi - Revisited

A new sketch of Cupchans’ character Kodama Amagi. They’ve been doing great new pics of them recently even heavier than before. So good!

Possible Adoptable Design

Some preliminary sketching for a maybe adoptable design. The idea is she has cybernetic/LED eyes.

Update: Still working in her. Pretty much what I envisioned. Gonna try a couple outfit options, possibly expressions.

Bit more rendering.

Cattleya

Another big mom cause of the time of year. Could definitely be a great last second Mother’s Day card!

Fixed what I felt was an issue with her top.

Trisha Elric

Happy Mother’s Day!

Update: minor tweaks, fixes.
