Tsuno workout (hi-res)

Alright here we go, the first girl in the new series of workout girls for the stream break screens, it's Tsuno!

I believe this is the first time I've done a colored piece of Tsuno without her horns. You might remember she originally started as my Halloween girl, and she had this curse motif, very much inspired by stuff like ICO, where she had two horns and one of them was broken. I liked this design, but I always felt it looked a bit off when I put her in group pieces with my...

Overlay Chinatsu 2020 (hi-res)

I recently updated Chinatsu's pic for the stream overlay and folks have been asking me to post her on patreon, so here you go. 

In addition to assorted improvements, I also changed her color scheme. This time it's a black and gold, almost rich girl vibe. I think it looks neat, though I'll probably try something else next time. :p

I'll likely post the new workout girls I made for the break screens too. Watch out for those soon. :3

Enjoy. ...

Chinatsu Cheongsam (hi-res)

The result of the first Chinatsu costume poll, it's Chinatsu in a chinese dress, a.k.a. a cheongsam!

I love the side parting on these kinds of dresses, so I wanted to play with an idea like that. And then I thought, what if Chinatsu's pulling up the dress with an embarrassed look on her face? Yes, yes, yes. Also, I gave her a ponytail to better fit the aesthetic too.

Shading the dress was quite tricky. I wanted to capture a classic satin texture, but replicat...

Rosalina (hi-res)

Commish for @xeroj_Designs of Mario Galaxy's Rosalina (and a Luma.)~

She's floating around and the Luma is dancing around her.  Also, Rosalina tushie.

I agonized over whether to show her other eye or not. In this angle the hair doesn't cover the eye entirely, and initially I drew it as if she didn't have that eye, but that read a bit strange. So then I experimented with either showing only the part of the eye that wasn't covered by the hair, but that als...

Amelia SS (hi-res)

Sketch reward turned color for OwMyNeck of his girl Amelia.

That feel when you try out old clothes are they're too tight. ;w;

First time I do an idea like this. It's fun to draw some flustered girls once in a while. :p

Enjoy! ❤

Ethy 2 (hi-res)

Commish for @CaptainLoli69 of his nature inspired brown catgirl.

It's my second time drawing her and it's still a great refreshing design. I did my best to highlight all her assets. ;d

Enjoy!❤

Enjoy! ❤

- knp live action series

- knp participate in the Japanese watermelon smashing summer ritual

Enjoy! ❤

Cerberus (hi-res)

Helltaker's doggo trio, requested by you guys.~

Of course, you knew I was gonna draw them in swimsuits. Took me a couple tries to figure out a pose I wanted, but I knew I wanted a lot of tushie action. This one is fairly symmetric and I think works well. We get lying down tushing, all fours tushie, and tushie peak from the sitting pose. A healthy diet. :p

I hope I captured their expressions well.

Enjoy! ❤

Azera (hi-res)

Commish for Gunbird of his blue haired cutie.

I've never done an idea like this before so I was really excited to tackle it. The girl sitting on the reef while the waves splash on the rocks and up into the air. I think it makes for a really neat visual. :p

In case there's confusion with her bikini top, that inner stripe is actually made of skin colored fabric, and not an open part.

Enjoy. ❤

Champagne party (hi-res)

Commish for OtakuTom of 3 of his main girls - left to right it's Adeen, Hilde, and Rei - having a toast. :p

We juggled a few ideas before landing on this one and composition was always an issue. Someone would always be the spotlight and the others felt like they were reacting, but this puts them more on equals, which works better. I forget if I've done an idea like this before, but it was an interesting challenge.

Enjoy. ❤

Plushmallow (hi-res)

Commish for Plushmallow/Squishington  of his 7 tailed fluffer, this time at the beach!

This is super up my alley so I got to really flex my Summer muscles. And my tushie drawing muscles. :p

Enjoy. ❤

Aurora (hi-res)

Commish for Dark-Nightshade of his cutie Aurora. Aurora has the power to multiply, so that's why we see two of her. 👀

These pools are based off of rooftops, where there's these segmented areas with drainage. It's a neat idea I hadn't thought of before. :p

This piece turned out to be deceptively very challenging. It's challenging in that there's a lot of water action going on, but also because of the color scheme. Light skin with grey hair with light blue s...

Reiko (hi-res)

Commish for Freckle Mancer of their cutie twintail fox. :3

The idea was she'd be eating some fresh takoyaki, so at first I thought to do a takoyaki stand, but that turned out to be problematic in terms of logistics (I wanted it to be right near the beach so we saw some sand), so I ended up going with a mobile takoyaki stand in truck form. 

Fun bit of trivia, although her hair looks green, it's actually orange hue. Try colorpicking it. It's a neat optical...

Selenac (hi-res)

Commish for Babette of their stylish black hair fluffer at the beach!

The background is inspired by some islands in Okinawa I researched. I tried some slightly new colors based on that research. I like how it came out. :>

Also, cat butt. 👀

Enjoy! ❤

Major Patreon cleanup update

Hey guys! 

The past week I've been working on a major Patreon cleanup, and I wanted to report what I've done. For anyone worried, no content was deleted, so fret not. Here we go, time for Kuro patch notes. :p

1)I did a massive tag cleanup. When I initially started using Patreon I wasn't sure how best to use tags, so I used to include all sorts of them - tags for characters, series, whether pieces were commissioned or not, etc - and...

Shygal (hi-res)

It's Shygal from the minus8 short animation, requested by you guys, and drawn by moi. :3

Given the source material, and my proclivities, I had to do a butt piece. I went back and forth with the background, wasn't sure what I liked. I played around a bunch with the blues and the star motif, and eventually landed on this which I think fits nice. :>

I added a couple wips of previous backgrounds I tried.

Enjoy! ❤

Me!Me!Me (hi-res)

The girl from Hibiki Yoshizaki's infamous animation music video, requested by you guys. :>

Actually in the animation she's wearing regular shimapan, but I was attached to this idea and decided to change them to a more thongy kind of shimapan. Hope you guys don't mind. 👀

Enjoy. ❤

Haruhi (hi-res)

Requested by you guys ages ago, it's Haruhi Suzumiya! 

Yet another piece that I'd shelved and recently dug back out and fixed up. Initially she was doing an asymmetric leg spread, and something about it wasn't quite clicking for me. This time I decided to do a more symmetric pose and I think it works better.

Haruhi's personality lends itself really well to these teasing ideas. I imagine she's teasing Kyon, or maybe a potentially new club member? *sweat*<...

Chinatsu costume poll!

In the July fanart poll there was an option for Chinatsu, where if she won, there would subsequently be a poll to decide what costume she'd be drawn in. It's time to decide it! >:3

I included a bunch of common trope outfits, with accompanying image examples. Please take a minute to vote on the outfits you'd like to see her in!

Poll #39 winners and poll #40 filtering!

Fanart Poll #39 is a wrap! The winners for the month of July were Cerberus (Helltaker), Altera (Fate/EXTELLA), and Tiki (Fire Emblem Awakening)! 

Because of the special circumstances of Cerberus being 3 characters, I'm gonna try some sketches for them and see if I get something good. If it happens, then that'll be the resulting piece, but if not, I'll scratch it and do pieces for the other two instead.

Cassie daki (hi-res)

Sketch reward turned commish for TopazMoon, of Cassie!

This is not actually dakimakura resolution, it's just playing with the idea/format. I thought a shy and submissive pose would fit well, and I like the result.  💦 

Another piece on the far end of the Kuro spicy scale. There's been a few this month. 

Disclaimer: Despite her petite body, Cassie is 18+! It's canon. :p

Enjoy! ❤

July sketch pack!

New sketch pack time! =v=

I spent most of the month grinding on color pieces so the sketch number is on the low end. I also happened to nail some ideas on the first try, so there's less experimentation sketches. But there's a bunch of nice cleaned up sketches I think, and it'll probably go back to being girthy next month. :p

I hope you guys enjoy. ❤

Kits and pups July pack!

New kit and pup sketch drop-off. :>

More hijinks included, such as:

- Schroedinger's kit

- knp sexy ads

- knp play battle bots

Enjoy! ❤

Zelda fractions 2 (hi-res)

Another piece revived from the graveyard. This is a followup to my original Zelda fractions, from 2017. I wanted to do an updated remake on it and really push it as much as possible. More dynamic angle, better composition, etc.

Alas, I bit more than I could chew at the time, and I had trouble figuring out the background perspective and some of the shading problems. Thus, the piece was put in the freezer for a while. ;w;

Then recently I picked it back up and m...
