Maron Character Ask 1

Maron and Marron are both pretty minor side characters tied to Krillin, one made for anime filler and one originating in the manga first. They were both named by different parties looking to expand on Krillin’s “chestnut” name pun. This is the real world reason for them having almost the exact same name, but that hasn’t stopped jokes around Krillin naming his daughter after his ex-girlfriend. Either way, I thought it’d be fun if Marron let a little of her dad’s side come out here in her reaction to Maron, and it was fun to get to draw her with her signature GT hat after drawing her so much without it for PPP.

Ersatzverse – Tsukinosagi’s Journey, Page Two

The first page of this comic went public in February of 2021… I’d chosen this format for this comic in order to make it easier to get pages out faster, and while it’s probably true that the hours spent on this page were less than those I’d spend on a normal comic page, clearly that didn’t translate into the page getting out any faster. Clearly the problem is more how lowly I’ve prioritized this series. While the Ersatzverse does have its fans, I can’t help but feel like the overall demand is pretty low, so I always choose other projects to focus on.
For those who don’t remember, the Ersatzverse is a universe constructed of “knockoff” versions of characters from other franchises. I chose Tsukinosagi to focus on for this story, and I’d originally planned to do a slow burn with her story. I wanted to show her going on a handful of normal adventures, maybe a bit ecchi but not overtly pornographic. The hope was to build some tension before things got spicier, but now I feel like that’s probably not really an option. The third page of this comic should come out faster than this one did, but nonetheless I’m going to move faster and cut to the chase more going forward so we can get some hardcore action before 2030.

Clover Ewing Character Ask 1

Drawing the Totally Spies trio in that previous Ask got me kind of in the mood to do more with those girls. Hopefully that will take the form of some kind of regular standalone art eventually, but for now this Ask was appealing to me for that reason (also I think it’s been a minute since I answered one from this Subscriber). I’d originally planned to pair Clover up with two characters meant to mirror Alex and Sam, but I decided that’d go against the spirit of her answer so I went instead with two basically random characters. May’s been sitting in the 1 Club for years now, and while she’ll probably eventually show up in Hypno’s Harem, she won’t have to wait that long to make her second appearance. I was also never happy with her first pic, so a better one’s been due for a long time. And April’s always a fun character to go to, especially for crossover stuff.

Hayase Nagatoro’s First Dare

I like the idea that Nagatoro accepted this dare expecting Naoto to be ineffective at giving her orders. However, Studio Naoto’s been gettin’ gangbanged by anons, as we’ve seen in his Asks, and he’s come out a bit stronger-willed as a result. So he’s put what he’s learned to good use here, hopefully people’s imaginations can fill in the gaps as we witness the aftermath here.

Boruto Mirror

The premise for this Mini Commission was to have Boruto checking out his own ass in the mirror. I felt like showing the reflection itself would be outside the bounds of a Mini Commission, and the prompt said it should be more of a side view anyway, so I drew it a bit more behind the mirror. Hopefully the scene is still readable in spite of this.

MomSwap – Tomo and Akemi Aizawa

I was planning for the next MomSwap entry to be from Infinity Train, but I stared watching “Tomo-chan is a Girl” and got distracted. I was hesitant about this series, ’cause the premise feels pretty dated, but I liked Tomo’s design a lot and decided to try it based solely on that. I did end up liking the show, and there’s other pairings I’d like to draw from it eventually, but I decided to jump on this mother/daughter pairing ASAP.

First Shoot #11 – Lin Beifong

Our eleventh First Shoot winner is Lin Beifong from The Legend of Korra. Legend of Korra has a number of hot older women, but Lin’s a real standout I’m happy to have on board. I don’t know if I’ll ever draw her with Toph, but when Mito ended up as her random partner I figured I could at least tease it, since Mito’s primarily done incest content herself in the Studio.

Homura Kogetsu Character Ask 1

While I don’t have much interest in drawing the Edens Zero characters again, I did have one subject I’d set aside in my mind as something I’d be willing to have them discuss if it ever came up. I haven’t watched this show, but I did have to watch several clips on YouTube in preparation for the NHML with Kurenai so I feel like I have some grasp on their relationship. In the climax of the struggle with Kurenai, Homura cuts all ties and feelings, positive or negative, with her mother. I don’t think the Studio would really change this, and I picture them not interacting at all in the Studio. I figured I’d let Homura explain this if it came up, and this question was close enough to justify it. I feel like the question itself was probably fishing for some BDSM femdom stuff with Kurenai, but I just don’t think that fits with my understanding of the characters.
