Are You Winning, Mom?

Silly drawing of giraffe mom on the computer based on that one image of Coraline's dad

I was originally going to just draw GM with that distinct sloped/asymmetrical expression but then I got a bit carried away and drew the whole thing. And then also got carried away and inked and colored it quite fast. Thank goodness for 3-day weekends, heh.

(WIP) Are You Winning, Mom?

Silly pic based on this image that I've been wanting to do for a while... I mainly wanted to capture that specific expression/sloped asymmetrical face but then got carried away and made the whole scene.

There's a version where Caroline is standing in the background; I might do a version with one of giraffe mom's kids doing that... we'll see.

It was fun drawing GM with messy ha...

SEPTEMBER POLL - #Snektember Becky's Weekend!

For the September Poll Image we're going to give some attention to Nurse Becky since she is a snake and it's #Snektember! The image will feature Becky having a wonderful weekend doing one of the following things that she likes to do in her time off from work.

I drew this chibi Becky for the occasion; I don't really know much about "chibi" art so bear with me on this quick attem...

August Poll Image - Mahiña's Necklace Transformation

Mahiña's maniacal necklace has turned giraffe mom into a shark! Just before her date is picking her up, too... hopefully her date is not too upset she looks quite a bit different than her dating profile.

Other than the unworldly transformation sensation and a huge tail as a result, I like to think the biggest thing GM would first notice is the particularly-fishy smell. I hope her date enjoys seafood...

My upmost apologies for completing the monthly poll image ri...

Lakebound and Calderon

Where is Lakebound taking Calderon??? She's got him by both tail and cloth; looks like he's not going anywhere except wherever she wants him to go...

Calderon was a nameless scrapped character from 2003 who is a "Velsuvian" just like Lakebound, and now I have brought him back! Let us look forward to all kinds of future shenanigans between them...

[WIP] Lakebound's Catch (inks/flat-color)

Inks and flat colors of Lakebound's Catch! I decided to name this lad Calderon. His design might change a bit in the next image of him but he'll definitely be back again. I plan on using him as a kind of... meek servant for Lakebound.  More on that in time!

[WIP] Lakebound's Catch

This image was previously titled Just Lakebound, but it is now not just Lakebound so it has a new appropriate title!

In the previous WIP, Strawkit said it seemed like LB was resting against someone. It indeed sounded like an open opportunity for such a thing so I decided to do that! I did also want to involve a bit of size-difference, but the lad would be too short to reach the ground, so th...

[WIP] August Poll Image - Mahiña's Necklace Transformation

My goodness this image has been a ride so far. At first I wanted to do a kind of collage with the end result on the middle, but it was a mess. Then I tried doing a straight up comic but it felt constrained, so I eventually landed on a mix of both. I just really wanted to avoid a simple before/after side-by-side sequence kind of thing.

This image will still undergo some more modifications but I need to step away from it for a bit to think about it without looking at it, heh.

[WIP] Just Lakebound

I just wanted to zone-out and scribble some Lakebound! Though I started this image about a week ago and decided to figure out what to do with it today... to which I must admit: I still don't know what I'm doing with it! 

It needs a lot of repairs but I'll likely try to finish it at some point.

August Poll Reroll

Apologies to do this late in the month, but I was just about to begin sketching the August Poll Image where giraffe mom turns into what was going to be a rhinoceros, but it was pointed out to me that there's an artist with an existing character that is very specifically a giraffe/rhinoceros hybrid.

Out of respect for that character and its creator and to avoid any conflict, I'd like to avoid that result, however I also want to give those who voted for rhino a chance to make an alternate...

GM at the Beach! (+ alts)

It is complete! To reiterate the subject of this image, I wanted to draw giraffe mom in a kind of "candid" way, hence the smartphone photo app overlay. Whoever is about to take the photo seems to have taken more than one, as you can see in the little gallery shortcut thumbnail in the corner! Hmm, I wonder who could be doing it.

I also included a version of the image without the overlay. The grayscale version is just because when I converted the image into grayscale to check the contrast...

[WIP] GM at the Beach (inks/flat colors)

Inks and flat colors for GM at the beach! Believe it or not I consider this image only halfway done, as I am still aiming to draw big clouds... I hope the clouds turn out good. I'm anxious to find out haha. I want the clouds to be a highlight of the image when it's done, along with the booty... we'll see how that goes though.

Also considering this being another "backlit" image in terms of the lighting. Depends on the clouds though. I'm really thinking about those clouds, you see!

[WIP] GM at the Beach

It has been a while since I've drawn giraffe mom in her swimwear! I also wanted to draw her in a kind of "candid" subject-matter, heh... I'm debating on whether or not to have the smartphone-overlay in the final image, though of course I could simply upload an alternate version without it.

I also wanted to use this opportunity to experiment drawing towering cumulus clouds. I know it's just an outline right, now but the fun part will be in the shading, when that time comes. I'm hoping it...

Pom's Pyramid

Edit: I added a version with the darker green clothing!

I decided to utilize this drawing of Pom to experiment with lighting! It was a lot of fun. There's some overlying lore with the background, but I learned all kinds of things about contrast while making this!

Drawing is very much a highly-experimental hands-on learning experience; just fascinating. The nigh-endless range of options of where to put light on Pom's body is such a unique sense of control, especi...

Inks and flat colors done! Though I might make her clothing white for this one. It depends on how it clashes with the background (which is the next step especially since the image title currently doesn't make sense without it haha).

AUGUST POLL - Mahiña's Necklace Transformation

EDIT: Apologies for the repost! Patreon posted the poll options from an old draft, sorry about that!

Remember Mahiña's Necklace? What if the smiling-section of it happened to end up at a thrift store—and GM purchased it for $4.89? And what if the necklace happened to have some wicked transformation properties?  This poll is kind of an experiment as I haven't delved much into TF or...

July Poll Image - Giraffe Mom TV Spot!

Woo it's finally done! Now that the lighting effects of the flame is done, it really makes me think about how if I were her boob that I, too, would say "aight I'm out" and attempt to leave the room, hehe.

It was hard to decide what to write in the news ticker. So many possibilities. In the end I settled on ye olde "Interjection" copypasta. Small chance I'll change that before posting this publicly on August 1st, but this works for now I think.

There's today's date and also today's...

(WIP) Pom's Pyramid v2?

Kind of a remake of this image that I did about a month and a half ago. I never entirely liked the proportions of that one so I made another attempt and I really do like this version a lot more; I think I'll actually finish this one. The background of course will be even more refined like the previous image and then some... it's simplified in this sketch because at this time I threw it on solely for...

Flat-colors for the July Poll Image! I like to think this scene started happening as soon as the news anchors turned the screen-time to GM. What a disaster. If only all her food magically turned into cake instead.

Initial sketch of the July Poll Image is here! The winning poll option was a cooking show; in this case we see special guest GM showing the local news network how to take leftovers and enhance them for an even better second meal! Perhaps she should only do one at a time...


This one took a few attempts because I was pretty indecisive about how I wanted the little wardrobe malfunction on Live television to happen. One option was just a simple slip as she holds up a fin...

Annelise Pinorini Working

At last, a second new image of my old dancer character Annelise Pinorini and her updated bodytype! This time featuring her actively doing what she does for a living. I'm still surprised at how flexible she is for her size... having been a cheerleader in High School certainly helps, though back then she wasn't nearly as big.

I challenged myself to do under-lighting for this image, though it get...

Inks and flats are done! The next part that'll really make the image pop are the lighting effects... I might experiment and do under-lighting in this one which is something I don't do very often. Might as well give it a shot!

Also as you can see I have her some fishnet leggings. Figured she needed at least one more accessory.

Y'all remember my dancer character Annelise Pinorini right? She's back again, and this time showing a bit more of her personality than that last image of her return, heh. I knew I needed to make a more action-packed image of her at one point!

I know what you're thinking and I'm surprised at how flexible she is as well... especially at her size. But that's great! I like to think she was a cheer...
