Character Asks

Kamas Hat-hor-het-aei Character Ask 2

Kamas has become the most popular of my Halloween OCs, it would seem. For some reason I’m super hesitant about drawing my characters with the characters I draw from established franchises… I’ve done it once or twice when it came up on, like, the monthly One-Shot or something, but I’m still hesitant about doing it in general. That’s why we’ve just got Kamas talking here, but I did try and have some fun with the pose. It ended up more “safe for work” than I’d intended, but I wanted her crawling kinda cat-like and predatory. Even if I ended up inadvertently covering up the “good bits”, I still like the look of her here.

Gon and Killua Character Ask 2

So, um… I never really know what to do with questions like this. It feels like, no matter what, the answer is going to be uninteresting and kinda boring. However, I don’t like ignoring my supporters when they post a question multiple times, so I took a crack at this. I don’t think the response is anything special, but hopefully it’ll at least be kinda nice to see Gon and Killua again… right?

Harley Quinn Character Ask 2

This is one where I had a pretty good idea how to answer when I first saw it. I’d been thinking of doing something with Deku getting pegged for a while, and it also fits in with my idea of how I might do theoretical Harley/Robin content. I like to think this is Harley’s preferred way of interacting with young heroes, when she’s not being a more conventional supervillain type of course. The last Ask I did for Harley I did a more comic book style, but for this one I went with her animated design (my preferred Harley), since I thought it’d clash with the anime look of Deku a bit less.

James Character Ask 1

This was one where I knew right away what the visual would be, but I had to think a bit about the actual answer portion. Eventually I decided it’d be worth acknowledging that getting to toy with Ash isn’t a rare occurrence, but due to James somewhat limited critical thinking skills he’s just now noticing how much easier it is to catch Ash than it is to catch Pikachu. Of course it’s the difference one would expect between someone who doesn’t want to be caught, and someone who does. 😉

Ryūko Matoi Character Ask 3

So, one thing about Ryuko that I wanted to bring into this answer is how flustered she sometimes gets around sexuality and nudity. I don’t think she’s a prude or anything, but she seems like she can get easily embarrassed, and I like the idea of a more confident girl like Satsuki being able to push her buttons just right to gain the upper hand in a sexual encounter. Every time I’ve drawn these two before it’s been Ryuko chowing down on some Satsuki butt, which she seems to enjoy (and who can blame her), but I wanted to show a different wrinkle here. Ryuko’s not being, like, a BDSM sub here or anything, but she’s definitely taken a more submissive/receptive role now that Satsuki’s decided she wants a taste. 😉

Mina Ashido Character Ask 2

So, for this Ask I of course knew Mina would say yes to working with Gohan again (and I figured showing them together would spice up the response a bit), so those elements were kinda given. Mina’s one of those characters who’d be down to partner with almost anyone in the studio, I think, which was the main joke of her first Ask (where she kept thinking of more and more potential partners until her speech bubble ran off the screen). While I was working on this, though, I thought about how Mina might feel about the Gohan/Zangya rimming contest those other Asks covered. After all, she’s worked with Gohan now, and I plan to do something with her and Zangya eventually (Zangya has been established as taking on a mentor-like role with a lot of the MHA girls within the studio). So when she sees Ochaco get to be involved in something fun like that, maybe she’d get a little jealous. 😉

Beast Boy Character Ask 5

So I had two minds about how to answer this. Beast Boy is of course closer to Raven than her mother, but Raven’s also not one for enthusiasm or the like. In thinking of how Beast Boy would answer, I figured he’d be less sentimental and just go with who felt better, and in this case the experience and passion of Arella would probably give her the edge over Raven, even though Raven’s the one B.B.’s more in a relationship with.

Mace Mezzenga Character Ask 3

Mace is just being a brat, he doesn’t actually have business cards.
So, like this answer implies, Mace and Jackie were designed for the sole purpose of appearing in comics like their first few appearances. Just pair them up with some older woman, be it a teacher or neighbor or what-have-you, and then watch the sparks fly. The only reason either of them have appeared in any yaoi content at all is (much like with this Ask) by popular demand. So while I’m not against using them that way, it’s not really what they were meant for and kinda conflicts with their initial characterization. Still, it’s been a minute since Mace’s last Ask, and he was eager to get in the spotlight once again however he could. 😉
Also, here’s the QnA video I did last month for my supporters:
