I can’t recall if I’ve directly answered this before in a Spotlight or something, but it is a topic I figured would come up sooner or later in the Studio Tour game. I figured I could also answer it here, where more people will see it, while also getting a chance to draw Esmeralda again.
Month: August 2024
There were a few questions for Yelena after her NHML debut, mostly looking to see something between her and Eren. Without getting into spoilers too much, Yelena conspires a bit with Eren in season four, and this Ask is speculating on ways that could’ve gone. I think Yelena’s being a bit coy in her response, however, focusing more on what she was willing to do to secure Eren’s cooperation.
So I had this answer in mind pretty quickly on reading the question. When it came to finding a good villainous partner for him, though, I realized I haven’t done much with superhero-coded villains, and my options were limited. I did come up with a workaround, but I ended up going this route instead ’cause I haven’t used Venom in forever and I thought it’d be a fun pairing.
This is a commission for one of my Lord-Tier Subscribers. It’s positioned like a Mini Commission because this Subscriber has a second pic they want. However, due to some of my own plans, the release of that second pic won’t be for a couple months, probably. For now, here’s some crossover fun with Cheetara and Goku.
I watched Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! recently and really loved it. I’m a pretty big fan of the series director, Masaaki Yuasa, but for whatever reason this series passed by me when it came out. I’d been meaning to check it out for a while, and now that I have I find myself really loving the three main girls. Sayaka Kanamori, the tall one, is especially appealing to me, and I’m really hoping to draw a lot more of her down the road. I do like Asakusa and Tsubame a lot, too, and I know Tsubame has one big fan in my Subscribers, so hopefully there’ll be more of all three eventually.
The Near Hentai Monthly Lady for August 2024 is Bayonetta. I drew Bayonetta a handful of times back in 2020, but I don’t have a strong connection to these games so I haven’t done anything with her since. For this NHML pic I decided to stick with her Bayonetta 2 design, since that’s my favorite of her looks by a good measure, but decided to pair her with her best friend, Jeanne. What I have seen of these games makes me think I’d ship these two if I played them, and I figured this way we can still get some fresh blood into the Studio even if Bayonetta’s been around for a bit.
With this post, NHML nominations for the month of September 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, Bayonetta. 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 September 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!
