April Submission Post

This submission window is one week long: last day being Friday, April 9th. No submissions of my characters this round: I would like to spread out a bit - don't worry you will have plenty of Barria and Kat stuff anyways with the comic and stuff from the list. 

All $5 and up tier patrons time to start submitting your choices for the Month's Patron Poll. You can either comment here or send me a note (whichever you feel most comfortable with). Each Patron at this tie...

April Is a Month

First stop this month is finishing the Too Many Cooks page I started last month, and then an item I already picked out from my worklist to finish. Id like to get at least one more Village Secret page and we will see after that. I have two more cow prints I want to do but those are kind of a "for me" thing and other obligations come first.

Patron Poll this month is going to be just your OCs. I have such a backlog of Barria and Kat stuff as it is and they keep hogging all the polls. Got t...

March Art Dump

You know the drill: Demonesu is nsfw stuff, Graphics is logos so in this case the "notice these senpai" shirt logo, sketchbook is wips and sketches, comics are comic pages from this month: enjoy!

WIP: Too Many Cooks Page 4

Am I really trying to do three color pages this month? Yeah I guess so. One more page of Too Many Cooks now that I have a better handle on the comic format I want to use, possibly finished this month, and then next month switch between Village Secret and this until back and forth. If I have time I would like to go back and redo the other Too Many Cooks pages but only after other stuff gets done.

One Sided Competition

Tierynbe's magical OC Maddie is determined to outsize Barria and refuses to accept any help (she's just feeling a little competitive is all).

Both High Res and textless versions in the below bits.

WIP: Smish Fighter Banner idea

trying to come up with a new banner idea to use across platforms. One of the problems is that sites like here, DA, etc. I can't be too excessive with the boobs in my banner. So trying something fun instead.

Ballpit Bouncy Castle

Ok I'm honestly glad I was told to draw this one.

Kat is starting to panic on accoount of all the angry parents but Barria was hasn't gotten to play in a ball pit in years! Little bit lazy on the crowd in the background if I am being honest to myself, but I didn't think about plotting that out ahead of time.

There is probably a HQ version in the bottom under the balls somewhere down below.

Incomplete Inflation B.E. Sequence

Busmansam's alchemist Alyssa having some issues with uniform inflation...

I am very inexperienced at drawing "flat" characters. Which I feel is the lead in to a joke of some kind.

The Village Secret pages 1 and 2

This was just going to be a 2 page joke but I like the character design and came up with too many ideas so probably more to come.

March Patreon Poll

Final Day is Monday, March 15th.

1: "Resubmitting: It’s springtime and that means spring cleaning. Kat and Barria enjoying a breezy laundry day, only they procrastinated on it for a bit too long."

2: "I'm going to throw my OC Liz in as  a possibility.  I think she would be really cute having a dream sequence where she has become a boob wall and is asking Barria how she handles it happening.  Art reference: 2021-03-09 17:57:40 +0000 UTC View Post

Stream Schedule for March

I'm Going to do an extra stream on Friday (so streams 26, 27, and 28th), just to try and get a few extra things done for this month and/or a head start on April. Probably work on new comic pages or illustration from the list. Or both. 

This month I am going to do streams for the weekends (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) starting at 1pm PST. Starting next weekend (March 12th, so three weekends this month).  I might sneak a few other streams in during the...

Village Secret WIP

UPDATE: yeah it was pretty unrealistic to think I could get this finished over the weekend but it's coming along really well. Also I am probably going to extend this comic out further, I have ideas!!!

Update Two: Got everything finished but the backgrounds so may need to start on those for the weekend stream.

More comic practice.  I like this character design way too much for a single use joke though, so I might need to elab...

Notice These Senpai

I had to stop what I was doing and spend today making these. For obvious reasons. 

March Submission Post

This submission window is one week long: last day being Monday, March 8th. I am requesting your own (or someone else's) OCs for this poll - my worklist is full of stuff with my own characters and I would like to see some more of your characters get a chance to be seen.

March is a Month

Daily stream gauntlet was a good idea even if it was difficult. Wound up getting a bunch of stuff finished in a week and it got me comfortable with streamining regularly again. I am going to need a couple days off from stream but I want to know if I should stream writing and commissions that are maybe not the same sort of content people are used to, or if I should save the streams for the smishy stuff.

Objective this week is patron poll, at least one item from the worklist, one commissi...

It's a Fair Question Though

Testing a new comic style for next month.

Boobwall Kabedon

This is totally inappropriate workplace behavior Hilda. Just because you take up most of the office doesn't mean you get to bully your coworkers this way.

February Art Dump

Quite a bit of alts and some design work this month. Glad I managed to get all the Valentine's stuff done even if I kinda missed the day itself. Same month still counts! I think I might need to start using a dropbox link or something for the art dumps with how big they are getting; patreon struggles with some of these folder sizes.

or I'm just too impatient. 

Candice Bunnysuit

Actually done as kind of a coloring tutorial/practice for stream.  Hi res version also for absurdly large file size if that's your thing!

Year of the Ox: Biscuit

It's been pointed out that the official terms are Sea Cow or Bull Shark. Also a free lifeguard version included in every set!

Obligation Chocolates

I wound up designing a logo because, like these two disasters, I have no chill.

Sweet Valentine Mochi

Adapted from the poll winner of Mochi with Mistletoe that is just a little bit late.  At this point the fact that I keep saying I need to go back to simplified colors and shading is pretty much a joke.

Meushi Sensei

Late for Valentine's this year but at least made it on the right month!

Also included is a no glasses version because I could.

Stream Schedule

To try and make up for problems this month; I'm going to force myself to stream work starting this weekend until the month is over. Streams will be on picarto https://picarto.tv/Icymasamune and start at 1pm PST (Starting Saturday Feb 20). The goal is to run every day this month and hopefully get everything finished.

Generally I like February but I couldn't control most of what happened this month: aside from the back...

Back Spasm, Haven't Slept, Fine Otherwise.

First thing: I'm fine, it's just a uncomfortable back issue.

But it has made it hard to perch over a tablet or sleep. Two things I need to be able to do in order to draw... not at the same time obviously. But, unless I can find a position that doesn't wake me up two hours later and I am able to heal quickly, I am worried I am going to miss Valentines. Still trying to work for it, just a heads up.

February Patron Poll

Final day is Monday, February 15 (yeah its a day after valentines but its still good for time, promise).

1) "It’s springtime and that means spring cleaning. katt and Barria enjoying a breezy laundry day, only they procrastinated on it for a bit too long."

2) "It's 2021 I say keep the Milk train running with more moos"

3) "Either boobwall milk-farm-zoo attraction-employee Stelard, or Aquatic Stelard (also boobwall, if i you remember her :P), having some kin...

Queen Cass Commission

Hey,  it's that very involved commission I said I was working on! Luckily I think its probably going to be appreciated around here as well. Honestly I am pretty happy with the way it turned out, the shading got kind of involved to change for the steps (more than I assumed it would at first) and I went a little harder on the background than I probably needed to: but I do like to get really into backgrounds sometimes!

Anywho, the files are appropriately massive at full size so you ca...

HBD Mindwipe (Featuring Tess)

An Illustration of my pal Mindwipe's cow girl Tess. For their birthday. Also included are some pngs of the logo for personal use.

February Submission Post

Trying something New! Still! This submission window is one week long: last day being Monday, February 8th. The theme being "Valentine" submit your own or other characters - it can be as simple as the character you want to give a valentine to (or get one from).

February is a Month (That I can't Spell)

So who is looking forward to my annual Meushi illustration, continuation of the cow-prints, posting some over complicated commissions, and patreon projects?

Me too!!

Actually kind of motivated for this month but going to force myself to take two days to recharge and maybe doodle some personal stuff.

Going to continue the new format for polls as this month I want to see how setting it for a valentine's poll works out.

Also I really need to start updating DA/etc with som...
