Month: September 2023

Minh Souphanousinphone Character Ask 1

I drew Minh and Joseph together for the WWOEC Woman of the Month back in August of 2013. At the time I was afraid of tackling the King of the Hill art style directly, instead taking it in a different direction, but I was never really happy with that pic. When Minh’s presence in the Studio came up on Discord, one Subscriber decided to give her a few questions for Asks, and I figured I’d use this one to take a stab at this pairing again at my current level. I ended up having fun working with Minh this time, and I tried to make her answer a bit unique. Maybe now that I’m more comfortable drawing her, she can eventually get in on some of those mom-based series she’s been campaigning for.

NHS Calendar #2 – February

I can’t believe it took me this long to get around to the February page of our second Calendar project. I suspect finishing the first NHS Calendar made me unknowingly file it away as “finished” in my head, and I just haven’t gotten deep enough into this second Calendar for it to feel real yet. Regardless, I did manage to get our second page out, with Beast Boy getting paired up with the Freeman boys. Since February is the month of love and all, I decided to put them in a love hotel.

Corey Park Character Ask 8

This Ask serves a couple functions for me, which is why I wanted to run with it. First is just getting to draw Ursula again, which I like, but more importantly using Corey allows me to establish something with her that opens up how she can be used in future pics. Corey’s not the type of guy who’d be comfortable around tentacles, I think. I’m sure he’s seen how other cute boys in the Studio have interacted with tentacles in the past, and that’s not really what he’s about. However, establishing that Ursula can get rid of them (without using the human disguise from her movie, which is a design I’m less interested in), now opens her up for much more content. Otherwise, she’d be stuck pretty much with oral, handjobs/fingering, and boob stuff, which is fine, but now we have a canon explanation for drawing her with human lower parts if I want to later.

Albedo NHML

The Near Hentai Monthly Lady for September of 2023 is Albedo of Overlord. Overlord is a series I watched and more or less enjoyed, but for whatever reason any pic ideas I had for it while watching it never fully materialized. Albedo’s probably toward the bottom of my tier list for Overlord gals, personally, but I know she’s pretty popular so it’s not surprising to see how many times she’s been nominated for NHML. I decided to fit in the other two ladies most at the forefront of the main cast, Shalltear and Aura Bella. I’ve drawn Aura Bella Fiora on commission before, but Shalltear’s a new debut despite me having some ancient unfinished sketches of her in my work folder. Anyway, it’s a big ol’ party, and I hope y’all enjoy!

With this post, NHML nominations for the month of October are now open. For those who don’t know, I’ll run down the rules real quick. Nominations are limited to one per person. You can nominate any female character you want, provided I have not drawn her within the past calendar year (though I prefer characters I’ve never drawn, period). Previous NHML winners are not eligible for a second time. Nominees must also not be from the same franchise as this month’s winner, Overlord. If you violate any of those rules, I’ll let you know, and you can nominate someone else. I know it can be hard to keep track of these things. You may nominate by either commenting in the cBox, commenting on this post, or emailing me (Nearphotison2010@yahoo.com). I’ll compile a list of the nominees in the sidebar of this site, and then on October 1st I will use a randomizer to select the winning character who I will proceed to draw sometime that month. I look forward to seeing who you all nominate this time around!

Near’s Drag Race – Future Trunks

I know it was a long wait, but I finally got around to finishing this entry for Near’s Drag Race. Trunks is one of two Dragon Ball characters I wanted to do two entries for, using the History of Trunks teen design with the new Super colors for Future Trunks. I figured both of those would make him different enough from the Trunks I drew for the first entry in this series. At any rate, I hop y’all will like seeing him here like this.
