June Pinup (Corrin)

My first finished artwork of Corn!  I wanted to highlight her haughty attitude, so she has kind of a smug look...not at all the type to blush in embarrassment.  I used a few references and did my best to get the perspective right, and I know it could've been better...but I like it.  Fangs are cute~ Corn is cute~

Also trying to finish up some stuff before the 4th of July weeken...

May Pinup (Zelda)

Only have an hour left of May, but I managed to get it done. TT _ TT

I had a lot of fun with this one!  I struggled with what to do with her hair, but ended up leaving just the very back unbraided.  The Wolf Link plushie I added because I think it makes her seem cuter...it's the sort of cutesy/immature thing she'd never let anyone catch her holding, but would secretly keep around b...

April Pinup (Robin)

Tried something slightly different with this one -- used two layers of cel shading instead of just one.  Hope you guys like it!  

As always, picture packs will go out on around the 6th of the month.  I've been experimenting a lot this month with different styles and mediums (even did a couple of rudimentary animations), and I think in the long run, it'll make for much more int...

March Pinup (Lingerie Lucy)

Ah, finally got it posted!  Patreon was having some kind of weird issues where I couldn't load anything -- sorry this didn't get posted here first, but I tried.  Glad it's working now, or seems to be, anyway.

As always, thanks x10000 for being awesome and supporting my artwork.  I'm happy with how this one turned out, and I hope you guys enjoy it, too.  I also made a less...

February Pinup (Villager Lingerie)

Decided to continue with the undergarment Smash pinup theme -- hope everyone likes it!  Did my best to keep the style consistent with the Palutena piece from last month.  Ideally, by the end of the year, I'll have 12 pinups that all fit in well with each other.  

Also, just wanted to apologize for being slow on producing new artwork this month -- February's picture pack will b...

January Pinup (Lingerie Palutena)

Hey, everyone!  Here's the pinup for January -- lovely Palutena relaxing in her underwear.  <3

I may or may not do a whole series of lingerie Smash gal pinups this year -- that's the current plan, but things might change or I might come up with something more interesting. :)

I tried something new with the line art again -- there's a line correction tool in Clip Studio ...

Please let me know if you fix your declined pledge! :)

The way I check to see whose pledges were declined and whose were paid successfully is with a tab on Patreon called the Patron Manager.  It gives a fairly simple readout that indicates who my Patrons are, how long they've been pledging, the total amount they've successfully pledged, their current pledge amount, and whether their latest pledge was "Declined" or "Processed".

SSB4 Girls - Wintertime Fun

Phew...got 'em done.  I know I'm not going to have much time this week to produce much else, with Christmas festivities in full swing, but I'm so glad I could finish this and get it posted for everybody to check out. :)

Feel free to use these as avatars anywhere you'd like -- just please let people know where you got 'em, if they ask.  

Also, this artwork (and a few other...

Mistletoe Robin (December Pinup)

I really took my time and tried to make this one extra awesome...hopefully you guys like it as much as I do. :)  Robin's so adorable~  With this, I've officially done a pinup of each of the 9 Smash Girls...feelsgoodman.

Included in the attachments are an alternate Red Robin version, and a .gif version with kira kira eyes and animated sweat drops.

November Pinup (Peachy Harvest)

Tried some new stuff with the shading again...not 100% satisfied, but I think it turned out pretty well.  I also challenged myself not to use any references...but I did end up using some for the background (backgrounds are hard... TT __ TT).

I've been extremely pressed for time for the past couple of weeks...lots of IRL stuff going down that's made it hard to find a chance to draw much ...

October Pinup (Bloody Villie)

Who else could I possibly have drawn for Halloween? :)

I wanted to do more stuff for Halloween (i.e. all the Smash girls in Halloween costumes) but I ended up finishing my commissions (all of 'em, hallelujah) and working on other random stuff.  Trying really hard to increase my speed/efficiency so I can accomplish more in less time, but I'm also realizing my limits more and more...somet...

September Pinup (Inkling Schoolgirl)

Found some interesting new brushes for Manga Studio that I've been trying out, but also tried to keep things close to my usual style.  Back to Smash girls for the pinup next month, but I was itching to draw a blue-haired Inkling gal. :)

Not as much art output this month as I wanted -- spent a lot of time trying to catch up on commissions and also spent a lot of time being sick. TT _ TT ...

September Update

So, good news and bad news.

Good news first:  there are awesome, honest people who really do support my artwork, and I fucking love you guys.  You give me hope that I can make art a livable profession, and you’re the reason I’m giving this a shot in the first place.  I’m so thankful...I’ve said it dozens of times already, but I really, really am.  (If you h...

Beach Fit Trainer - August Pinup

Tried something different with the coloring for this one...went with a softer, painting style instead of the usual cel-shading.  It's not perfect, but I gave it my best shot...it's good to try new things. :)

I'll be retooling my Patreon next month, to coincide with my new life...

Thank you so much, and some news~

I honestly never thought I'd make my first milestone...it's crazy, and I can't describe how thankful I am to everyone who's contributing.  As described, I guarantee I'll finish at least one high-res pinup every month and get it posted on here -- my plan for this month is to do one of Wii Fit Trainer, but I haven't decided much more than that.

I wanted to let everyone know too, st...

Miriam Pinup

Here's a big ol' version of the lovely Miriam from Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, the upcoming spiritual successor to Castlevania (the old Metroid-vania style ones, anyway).  I'm pretty hype for the game, and I haven't seen much (good) fanservice fanart for it, so I decided to throw my hat into the ring. :)

SSB4 Summer Munchies Icons

I've seen a lot of people use cropped versions of my art as profile pics/avatars/etc. -- well, here are some Smash ladies designed expressly for that purpose~

Tried to make them subtly lewd when I could, but sometimes I just had a different idea that wasn't phallic enough...lol

Thanks, as always, for the support!  I can't explain how much it helps me out every mo...
