February Art Dump

Guess what time it is?!

If you guessed it's time for Icy to have an anxiety attack over not getting enough work done this week despite having a bunch of stuff in this month's art dump, then congratulations: you get me.

While I am still a month behind  after my burnout in January: I did get my obligate  workload finished, you just have to wait until next month for the current illustrations and pages due to me wasting an awful lot of time writing this month.

Like. So...

Pride of Ophaen (Story)

Not my usual sort of thing but between working on comic thumbnails and scripts I have been writing a short story for my own entertainment. It's got boobs!

Anyways, something a little different in medium (if not content) that I was using to sharpen some writing skills.

Hope you enjoy! Illustrations soon~

February patron Poll: Demonesu

Deadline is Saturday, February 29.

 1) Battle of the Butts: muscular Naomi booty vs fat Kat booty.

2)  I was thinking of the game twister with a busty barria squishing up against a bootyful Kat. They seem to be running out of room. 

3) "Cause I've totally fallen for her and her concept, gonna throw out Boobie Shark doing the 'Free Willy' jump over someone holding up foods for her. It was mentioned during a stream and I was gonna suggest it any...

Meushi 2.0

Color test and some details on the Meushi redesign. I probably have a lot I can say about this - but mainly I think this works way better for both her personality and character as well as making her more interesting for me personally. It actually gets me excited to draw her again having a design for her I really like.

In her original role as a mascot she had a very generic design: and while I added details to her story and personlity; her appearance was always very "Generic cow girl mas...

HBD Meushi 2020

This year for Meushi's birthday I decided to update her design: change her hairstyle and darken it to a darker reddish-brown than it was before. Trying to hint more at a 90's transforming hero character.

Also Poisonwind originally launched in 2002 which makes her 18 this year so I decided to make it a more risque illustration than the usual.

I honestly like this look a lot more for her than the outdated one I clung to all that time. She was due for a remodel. Might still tweak it ...

Overstocked Dairy Aisle

 Patreon poll winner (that is a wee bit late); Roxanne's OC Zoe dealing with some inconvenient growth in the middle of the supermarket.  Hopefully the cold doesn't bother her too much before they can help her out, or doesn't have any follow up growth spurts in the mean time.

I wound up taking quite a bit of time with this one. But now I have a whole bunch of supermarket assets to use again later. Unfortunately most of the designs can't be seen all that well in this one, so I n...

On Comics, Scripts, and Polls

This post is going to serve as multipurpose. The idea of me posting comic scripts as part of the WIP stuff for the patreon was brought up, and it WOULD serve as an additional perk for the patreon. My main concern is that I have less confidence in my writing than I do in my drawing so I am reluctant to share it. But if its something people think is worth money to see then I can start working on that. I would rather just make it part of the $5 tier than make another level, but this also ties in...

Art Trade and Valentine's Illustration

What started as an art trade with Erasure escalated into my Valentine's Illustration for this year. Coloring and shading Mari (and especially) Slime-kun was a great exercise as well. This also saves me if I can't come up with anything special in time to draw with Meushi and can get away with a simple draw of her this year.

Also hey, did you know I keep forgetting to put the low res version of illustrations in the attachments alongside the High Res ones? I will, at the very least, rememb...

Icy Took a Personal Day

To draw an original flavor Naomi (Minos and floofy hair) and Mindwipe's four-boobed girl, April. Mindwipe has been a positive influence from way back in the Poisonwind days and I wanted to show some appreciation on his birthday this year.

These are already posted at full size. I know not everyone is into multi-boob so I didn't put April up front. But I really like how she came out.

February is a Month

I'm going to keep this one short and to the point because I have a lot of stuff I want to get to but I also don't want to stack too much on my plate and then not get to everything.

I still owe a illustration from January that needs to be completed.

General subjects poll winner from last month was:

Barria Dakimakura

I was thinking about what to do for February NEU picture and kind of started with this idea... and ultimately ran it all the way to its conclusion.

The file size is kind of huge because I made it compatible with what an actual Dakimakura resolution needs to be at. Figuring if I was going to do it, even as a gag, I should do it properly. So guess what!? In the attachments below are the full sized images; if you print yourself a Barria Daki I just ask that you send me a photo of it so I c...

Group Effort

Heavy Lifting and everyone is helping! Especially Candice!

New shading style is coming together nicely, was a little worried about this one for quite a while as I was working on it, but I really like the final result: Candice came out really well - her pallet works especially well with the light and shadows for the composition (important to remember for later). However - I feel like Kat's butt is kind of overpowering the rest of the image.

Check below for the HQ version; I think t...

WIP Unfinished January Illustrations

These two January illustrations didn't get finished in time so I am going to keep working on them this weekend and see if I can finish them up as quickly as possible.

It didn't help that I switched gears on the weightlifting prompt to go with something I though would be more fun and interesting. The sketch I had before might still get finished - it's not bad, its just a little bit boring as it is now.

The Zoe sudden boobwall pic will not feature bread of any kind. Please stop ask...

January Art Dump

This month was spent mostly trying to recover from December as well as setup stuff for the next projects moving forward. The great part of that is that there are a ton of design stuff and gestures in the art dump. The bad part is that I'm late with two illustrations this month and need to finish them over the weekend. Yeah I know you guys told me not to overwork myself after last month and I did anyways because I'm a big dummy head.

I'll try and keep my goals a little more realistic for...

Hilda Ref

Not a very detailed one. A lot of these ref sheets just need to be good enough for the upcoming comics so I can stay on model with the characters.

Hilda's costume and a few particulars about her appearance change with each specific incarnation, but this is her basic NEU appearance (which is also the only version of Hilda that leans more into deadpan snark than her usual Smug and Playful).

Also making sure to point out that she has the toxic roger eyes (cross in left, swirl in rig...

Scraps and Boobshark

While the Boobshark story idea is one that will have to wait for a bit, I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do with it. Still trying to get actual illustrations done and most of what I have wound up working on is just character designs for the current comic projects (good), gestures for future illustrations (always handy), and designing a new girl just to amuse myself (probably a little irresponsible). Anywho; got a week to finish up those last two illustrations for patreon, but the s...

Nyx Design Work

I still need to work on some details but the first character that I am updating for the new NEU comics is Nyx: engineering genius and villain cosplayer. Creator of the Hoodie of Holding in setting, and self-proclaimed rival to Candice Eunsijong.

Edit: Still tinkering with the design. Put the newest version on top.

Patreon Illustration WIPs and Update

Some gestures for the boobwall illustrations I owe this month, still not sure how many of the NEU cast I want to cram into the weightlifting one. There is plenty of canvas space to work with!

Comic wise: scripts for shorts almost done, I have been dragging my feet on the pencils for the next NEU comic but plan on getting some presentable before the end of the month. The comic shorts will probably start with the Barria origin and I'll get the side comic started after those are underway.<...

January Patron Poll: Demonesu

Final Day for poll is Friday, January 31

1) " I was thinking maybe a prequel or sequel to the image you made of Kat measuring Barria. Maybe the growth just starts and Kat has to continually look through to find something that could actually measure Barria or the growth continues from where it left off and Kay’s desperately holding on? "

What a Lovely Stump

I don't have an anecdote to this. Cake was musing about style choices for Cassie's stump on twitter, and I felt compelled to make a visual argument for a detailed version.

Wow, apparently this is one of my most divisive drawings to date (Apparently for a lot of reasons). I'm going to tag it with gore just in case; some folks on various platforms  have already stated it counts as such for them.

Reclining Pay-Tan

Fanart of SaburoX's mascot character Pay-Tan (Payton). To work on color and shading practice some more: attempting to get used to some new techniques to add some depth to my shadows and light.

One of those papers below is probably the same High Res version as in the attachments.

Fanart for Ryver8's Endowry Pageant story series. 

Which features a tiny smug genius.

Therapy Cow Candice

Breaking back into work mode with an actually Illustration of Candice sporting her Therapy Cow logo. This picture really made me realize that the work on her design has paid off: max mom energy and definitely has the right personality and feel for the character.

At some point I need to make Licensed Therapy Cow T-shirts.

Also included below is a HQ version so you can look at the eye shading I spent way too much time trying to improve at.

Design Sketches and Buff Boobwall

Just some simple design sketches while I work on some script and organization stuff for the new projects. Had to take a bit of a break to recover from overworking myself but warming back up now.

The sketchpage has some miscilanious doodles regarding hair and face details for Naomi, Hilda, Candice, and Scratch. Mostly dealing with some theme consistency and helping to nail them down a bit before their next comic appearances.

Also a "Old Eve": basically what I imagine Eve Taener...

Candice Design Workshop

Not sure if I am completely happy with it, but doing some work on Candice's design. I have always had a really hard time working with her hair: as her original design worked, but the way I drew her floof made it look less like floof and more like a plastic cloud. Giving her Ko's haircut has the complication of making it harder for me to use the haircut for the NEU incarnation of Ko, who is the actual Ko. Strange hangup but got me to focus a bit on trying to get her foof to work better.

January is a Month-

And a year, and a decade. You get the idea.

Ok so last year was really good for me in terms of progress. And I would like to keep that positive momentum going forward. There are a few things I didn't get to, despite everything (such as the Barria bonus pages and doing character designs for the NEU cast). But I have a bit of a gap and a running start on those now.

This month Ill be starting on two collaborations: both still in planning stages and I'll have more word on them as I go...
