Character Asks

Philip J. Fry Character Ask 1

I probably would’ve done something with Fry and Leela before now if I wasn’t always worrying about how Groening’s characters look in my style. I’m sticking here with an approach I tried in Marge’s Character Ask, which I think is a nice middle ground between drawing them completely different from how I draw everyone else, and making them not look like themselves. Hopefully people will enjoy this one, ’cause I am fond of these characters and wouldn’t mind revisiting them more often.
I had this idea of Fry trying to do something cute when Leela arrived in the Studio, but I figured it’d fall flat on his face. A simple dumb prank seemed fitting, though clearly they’ve moved past that by now.

Nimona Character Ask 1

There’s quite a few “gremlin” type characters in the Studio, I think. Knowing this Subscriber’s tastes I’m also pretty sure who they had in mind, but when I was thinking about Nimona I just had this itch to see her with Denji. I think, beyond them both being definitively gremlin-pilled, Nimona would empathize with Denji’s story and maybe even want to nurture him a little. I have this clear image in my mind of how she’d see him, and I’m trying to allude to a bit of how I read their dynamic here with this answer.

Rebecca Bluegarden Character Ask 1

Anzu got quite a few Asks submitted after her debut, which I was happy to see. I would’ve liked to do more of them this month, but the timing didn’t work out well for it. I did want to do at least one, though, and picked this one out of a few that I liked because I thought the “gamer girl” dynamic could be played in a cute way. I liked this idea of Rebecca taking the Studio approach to a question like this, while Anzu’s just focusing on her gaming. If I can, I want to do a lot more with Anzu in the coming months, so hopefully we’ll be seeing more of her down the road.

Kintaro Oe Character Ask 1

So I was kind of in the mood to do a Surge Ask when picking this one. She had several questions, but I wasn’t satisfied with the answers I was coming up with for the ones I could do, and so I figured I’d move on. Then I saw this question for Kintaro, and kinda thought I could work with that instead. Kintaro is very gay for women, and I don’t think he’d pass up a furry girl if presented with one. Surge is a little bit outside the type of woman I usually pair him with, but branching out is good and I like the idea of Kintaro being intrigued by how different some furries can be from what he knows.

Loid Forger Character Ask 1

I don’t think I have much to add to this one. This Subscriber has talked some about pairing Loid with every character Yor and Anya have worked with so far, although it’s not something I’m interested in actively pursuing. However, there are individual characters that are closer to them than others, and I think Yuji is someone who probably has a good relationship with Anya. I don’t think I’ve ever had her refer to him as her big brother in previous work, but Yuji has a way of becoming people’s brother and it’s just kinda a natural fit for him.

April O’Neil Character Ask 1

It’s been a little bit since I’ve done April with any of the turtles. I didn’t really want to just have her giving one of them a footjob (or, worse yet, have her footjobbing a green dick without it being clear which turtle it was). Instead, this idea came to mind, allowing her to give Donnie the footjob for the Ask while the other three show they might need a bit more patience and discipline in their training.
