In early 2012 I tried crowd-sourcing ideas via polls. I let people nominate whomever they wanted, and then ran a poll with all the nominations. Mervamon and Weda here both won said poll and, though I did do another poll, this would be the only image I did this way.
I really loved working on this pic, it provided a great opportunity to experiment with light sources and limited lighting. Whether my experimentation turned out good results is for you to decide, but I’m quite happy with it.
There was some confusion on my part in coloring this. You see, DTiberius always uses direct references for his backgrounds, and I knew from experience that I would be able to find this exact skyline somewhere in Batman: The Animated Series. Well, I re-watched the entire series, but couldn’t even find the Wayne building featured. I shrugged and used other building colors to do the skyline, only to later be informed by DT himself that the background here is from DCU Online, not the show that the characters are done in the style of. Well, we had a good laugh and I recolored it. Cool story, huh?
COY stands for Cross Over Yuri. The premise is pretty simple, I have a list I’ve compiled of over 600 cute girls from various anime and manga. I then use a random number generator to make pairing, which I then draw. Every third picture is a threesome.
I have mixed feelings on this one. On the one hand, I’m rather happy with the pose and I think that (mostly) it turned out well. I also really like all three of the characters in this one. I loved Shirley in Code Geass, most because I have a soft spot for school girl woobies. I like May, too, although she’s second to Misty in my list of Pokémon chicks. Jun was a girl I wasn’t familiar with until I started coloring GodOfChaos’s work, and she pops up a lot in his stuff. So I was good on those fronts.
But I don’t know… something’s off. I know what it is, but I don’t want to point it out in case it’s not as obvious to other people. You should know, though, that if anything here looks a bit weird, it’s because it looked weird in the photo reference I used. I checked and double-checked, and it’s just due to the odd angle or something.
Rather than proper artwork (or even a color job), this is just a simple edit I did of a screenshot from the web series “Gundarr”. All I really did was edit out the girl’s bikini.
