It was only a matter of time until we saw some combination of these three together, I think. I kinda thought it’d end up being just Miles and Gwen, but instead they’re tag teaming Miguel in a two-on-one here for this Dare.
Since this scenario’s expanding on a panel from the most recent Studio Christmas party, I thought it’d be fun to tie it in to another panel from that party. I know this one’s maybe a little more PG-13 than I usually do, but I just had this interaction in my head and thought it’d be cute.
I think a lot of Aki’s characterization in Chainsaw Man is informed by his motivations that I won’t spoil in case anyone reading this hasn’t seen Chainsaw Man yet. I think that drive really shapes his serious, meticulous character, and I think being in the Studio without that motivation might affect him. On the one hand, it has allowed him to loosen up and learn to be happy with Himeno, which is great for her, but here we see it maybe troubling him a little bit. Our serious boy’s become something of a playboy, and the poor slob just can’t seem to get out of the bed in the morning. I went with a hair-down look for both Aki and Choso here to help convey that morning messiness a little bit, hope it comes across.
Here’s the ninth page of Tournament of Lust. This match ended up having a bit more to it than I’d originally planned, but we should be wrapping it up in the next page.
Dogs and cats fucking together! Mass hysteria!
I posted a couple commissions not long ago that I said were part of an emergency fund-raising effort I had to run. The bulk of the funds raised from that sale were through a ten-page commissioned comic. The individual who bought that comic couldn’t fully decide on which characters they wanted to use, however, so we agreed to split it into two five-pagers. This is the first of those, a little three-way featuring Yuji, Inosuke and Thorfinn.
Updates for this one might be a little spaced out initially. Both “The Eizouken’s Closer” and “Leave It All On the Court” are only a few pages from finishing, so once those wrap I’ll be able to focus on this one a bit more. Until then, though, I did want to at least get it started with this opening page, and maybe there’ll be another page or two before those other comics finish. Regardless, I hope y’all will enjoy this one!
So this is a pretty simple one, but one I figured some folks might like. This is far from the first time I’ve drawn Killua giving a footjob, I’m sure, but I had this answer pop into my head and just decided to go with it.
Page five of this comic! We’re done with the strap-on now, and there’s only a couple pages left of this one. I’m still really enjoying working on this comic, but due to some other obligations it might be a bit until page six is ready.
I had an idea that I thought would be funny, and I guess I just let the intrusive thoughts win this time.
So, just a reminder for folks who don’t know, but I have a handful of different categories for the types of ongoing comics I work on. One is the SubscribeStar monthly comics, of which there are four that cycle through one page per month on a rotation schedule. I also have a handful of comics that just update when I can get to them (Tournament of Power, Butt Witch’s Busy Weekend, Leave It All On the Court and The Eizouken’s Closer are the current lineup of those). The rest of the comics I do are on a rotation schedule, where I will work on one comic for 3-5 pages before then moving on to the next on the schedule. I have this schedule posted on the sidebar of my site, but it’s pretty far down, so I don’t know how often people see it.
This page marks the end of ZMN’s run as the focus comic in this rotation. I know it’s just getting to the good stuff, but it’ll probably be a while before we work our way back around to this one. For now, though, we’re going to leave things here and move on to the next comic in the rotation schedule, which I’ll talk more about when the first page of that comes out in about a month.
