5/27 + 5/28 Sketches

A few more sketches are coming down the pipeline! More may follow tonight, but I wanted to be sure a post went out before it got too late.

There's a strong Vannie focus with this one, and I feel thats not gonna slow down! I have a handful more ideas I want to depict with Vannie, primarily involving her being an adorable lovebug, so we'll see how those may shape up.

Included here are...

Summertime Sinoa

Going big on the summer time beach vibes, I realized I had never drawn ANY outfit for Sinoa! While not a casual outfit, I have kind of remedied that issue in a sense. She tries to feign ignorance, but its not really working now is it?

Expect more sketches in the future and for past WIPs to be wrapped up in the coming days! The summer means I have a bit more free time to do t...

Assorted Projects

Here is a recent batch of projects I have ready to share! Four projects in total, in order being Duna Nichs (commissioned by T-rex M), my own Sinoa, Midna, and Fluttershy. A rather diverse cast of characters!

To list a few of the upcoming projects, you can expect to see Vannie paired with Aspen's Maxine, Sarah paired with Dr.Djdray17's Elise, Luna from Konosuba followed by the Aqua and Da...

Let's GROW! 10 - Sango (3/3)

File has been updated to include the following variants

Sketch

Full Release

Character Art (No BG)

------

This is the last part of Sango's Let's GROW! set. Once prepared, the additional versions supplied by Gaz and Cap will be uploaded to this file. Things have proven to be rather busy, so I do apologize for the short notice on these collaborations. That being said,...

SGA Audio Cover Art 3

Here is the (mostly) finished cover art for my third project with SGA Audio! This is currently pending review, so things may change slightly between then and now. Fully voiced, the project in question will appeal to fans of mini-GTS content. As mentioned, I will be sure to link to the pages where it can be found once the project goes public.

Up next will be Sango! Following that, I will b...

Project Batch 5/18

Here are a few more projects to round out the night!

First is a project that began on the 14th that I was rather unsure of what to do with. Regardless, it belongs here! Vannie has gotten a bit bigger it seems, and she may be teasing her hubby a bit with some fun pictures~

Included are both cropped and full versions of the picture. I felt there would be no harm in drawi...

Mako & Hiro Project

Here is a long overdue project for my friend Umbra that is finally complete! This project features Mako alongside his own OC Hiro. The background is multimedia, blending a provided backdrop with some editing and post processing, sort of similar to what you see with my collabs with CapnXero, though I am sure the process is massively different.

This was drafted in the middle of last month, ...

Posing Vannie

Quick little doodle I made of Vannie! I was getting inspired by some projects with really good posing and wanted to try a bit or a more technical pose. Its not anything crazy like a ninja flip or anything, but its a step towards more expressive art pieces! I get very self conscious about posing in my pieces, so I am very happy that this one is rather lively and expressive.

I plan to color...

Let's GROW! #10 - Sango (2/3)

[Updated Description 2024/05/14]

Additional assets are now available within this post including a transparent BG variant

--------

Here's the inks and sketch for Sango's second part of the Let's GROW! entry! She's gone a bit top heavy, really leaning into that gremlin energy she has, and Part 3 is more than likely to follow this trend (along with some potential gains elsewhere!...

Golden Bikini Vannie

Hey everyone! Here is another project to share, this time being a finished version of another sketch from late March. I know Golden Week has passed, but I'm quite alright being fashionably late to the party.

Since this is technically a two parter, I have also included separated versions of both images, with the horizon line moved on the standalone low angle shot to make the ...

Signs of Growth

Looks like Vannie can't deny she's gotten a fair bit bigger...this compression shirt is barely a few years old!

Another Vannie pic from late March that I have wrapped back around to finish! It was a lot of fun to make this, all the inks and colors were done on stream earlier this evening. I suspect the two angle bikini pic will be next for completion, that is if another draft doesn't grab...

Let's GROW! 10 - Sango (1/3)

Here is the master file for everything pertaining to Part 1 of Sango's Let's GROW! journey! As these are collaborative projects I apologize that this could not come out sooner, but additional variants and behind the scenes files are included in this post.

Whenever possible, Parts 2 and 3 will be uploaded as soon as possible for everyone to get first looks at the project!

More Sweater Dress Vannie

Another quick little project because I've been loving how this sweater dress looks on Vannie. Not too crazy of a project, but just a quick fun one to keep the gears moving! I have a lot of planned projects coming up, so its best to stay proactive. I can't wait to show them all off soon!

I hope you all enjoy!

Art Trade - Veronica (DJthepokemon)

Here is the next art trade to be completed! This one was of DJthepokemon's own Veronica! DJ Includes Pokemon in a lot of his drawings so I wanted to try my hand at it as well. Additionally, Lamp Post added in a little Gardevoir into the background to fill out some of the negative space.

That is all for the currently planned trades! I can return my focus to commissions, personal art and P...

Patreon Poll - Wiz (Konosuba, Complete)

Hey everyone! The Wiz project is looking to be just about complete. I don't see much else that needs to be added, and with 35 variants to this project it has become an absolute BEAST of a set. As mentioned before, the full library of these images can also be found in the Patron tier channels on my Discord, so if you have your account connected, you may view them there as well.

As rewardin...

Patreon Poll - Wiz (Update)

Here is an update regarding the Wiz project!

As things stand currently, there are 15 variants rendered, fully inked with flat coloring. Shown in the above preview are a couple of the variants. I initially only planned for there to be two clothing alts, one with the full outfit and one with the skirt portion removed, but I have also gone ahead and included another set that removes a bit m...

Art Trade - Julia + Mordread (RamenWarwok)

The art trade between myself and Ramen is complete! It will be going live on Wednesday, so keep an eye out! Despite the time zone difference, we are shooting for a synchronized release, so it will be a bit later in the evening.

It was a lot of fun to get to work with Ramen and the individuals who set up this project, so thanks again! I hope you all enjoy!

Sweater Dress Vannie (Complete)

I finally got around to finishing that doodle from a while back of Vannie in her new sweater dress! I had been really anxious about the inking, feeling that it simply would not work, but it seems that as I am forcing myself to ink more projects once again the anxiety I had has been slowly melting away. If there is anything to take away from that, its that pushing out of your comfort zone is alw...

2024-04-19 Elise

Here is a little colored sketch for my friend Dr.Djdray of their OC Elise! I want to focus more on posing improvements so this was a great opportunity to do so!

I hope you all enjoy! More content to come very soon, thank you as always for the support ^-^

2024-04-18 Amane

Finished up the Amane picture that was drafted up last week, and here it is! I was playing with the idea that her standard outfit can double up as a one piece swimsuit when the lower skirt portion is removed, although I'm still not sure if I want the top to be more of a hatched design, a striped sweater design, or a smooth and slightly shiny polyester/synthetic look as shown here. Easiest answe...

Style Practice - Vannie

I've mentioned in my Discord that I am looking into alternative rendering methods for my artwork as lineart, specifically very thin lineart, has become rather encumbering. Inspired by the refined sketch look of artists like Rikuguma, I gave the general rendering style a shot. While I wouldn't say I am the best at it yet, it was fun!

Additionally, this piece works as sort of a comparison f...

Hex Maniac + Amane Project Drafts

Here are a few more sketches to share, one of Amane showing off how her new outfit doubles up as a one piece swimsuit, and another of Hex Maniac based off the ghostly Hex apparition encounter in Pokemon X and Y

I will be doing more work tonight, but I want to make sure an update goes out in case plans fall through. I am absolutely going to color the Hex piece once my other obligations are...

Art Trade - Cori

Art Trade with CoriPoner of their OC Cori

Feeling a lot happier having this completed, and I feel this newfound clarity will make way for a lot more work on new and existing projects!

More projects to come soon, so stay tuned! Thank you for all the support ^-^

April 5 Sketches

Another little sketch batch to close off the night! Included are a warmup piece of Vannie, a non-descript slime girl requested by my friend Lamp Post, and a gift for my friend Berggie of his OC April! The April piece is from a few days back, but I was still not well enough to be around my computer to post it.

The Vannie piece may be completed as a test for how quickly I can ink a project ...

Art Trade - Muna

Here is a quick art trade with MitBoy of their OC Muna. Finally getting back to my feet after this run-in with Covid, I felt a nice simple laid back project would help.

I would like to do more trades in the future, so maybe it is something you all can anticipate. I will be doing a bit more work tonight, so another post may follow in the evening.

I hope you all enjoy your weekend! 2024-04-05 18:16:30 +0000 UTC View Post

March 29 Sketch Batch

[March 31 Update]

Hey everyone, this is a late addition to the previous post that I was unable to squeeze in. Saturday hit me with a pretty sudden bout with Coronavirus and I was unable to get to my computer until this evening. As such, I am including this draft within this post as it was intended to be here.

Vannie wanted to get a bit more into fitness, and for that she wanted a co...

Mid March Sketch Batch

Hey everyone! I have some more projects to share with you! This has been a busy week that kept me away from art, but I have put together a little collection of drafts from the last few days to make sure everyone gets to see what has been in the works!

Here are some tests I had been doing with style and appearance. I recently began work on a character sheet for Vannie, and one of the added...

Community Guidelines Update and the Future

Hey everyone, last night it came to my attention that Patreon has updated their content guidelines surrounding sexually gratifying works.

The new Guidelines can be freely viewed here: https://www.patreon.com/policy/guidelines

This new update to their terms of ...

Vanessa 2024 Character Sheet - WIP

Late Night Update! Fitness and Bikini outfits have been drafted! This makes a total of four outfits now, and I feel it is a good rounded number to end with for the time being. These four outfits will give a wide range of project themes so I am rather content with the progress! :D

Heya! This started because of some fast-acting brainrot from an outfit...

Let's GROW! #9 - Mint (3/3)

Here are my inks for the final part of my Let's GROW! collaboration. Hyper sized thighs are rather tricky to get right, but despite that they are always a ton of fun to draw! It might be all the opportunities for overwhelming squish that makes it really feel worth it, because despite the challenges it always feels good to draw proportions like these.

As previous, colored versions will be ...
