Character Asks

Ash Ketchum Character Ask 5

So, I treated this Ask sort of like if the question was, “Which crossover makes the most sense?” Obviously there’s more of a precedent between Pokémon and Digimon, with the two franchises seen as being competitors and the forerunners of the monster raising genre. Also, I think if I was going to pair Ash up with someone in My Hero Academia, it wouldn’t be Deku, but Denki. Their personalities seem closer (though I think Ash and Deku would get along great, I think he’d have more in common with Denki). There’s also the little matter of Ash already being very familiar with powers like Denki’s, and I think you could draw some cute parallels there. 

Siat Wildstar Character Ask 2

This was another “world building” Ask that I got to have some fun with (sorry it’s a bit wordy as a consequence). I haven’t talked much about -where- the Near Hentai Studios is, but it’s basically not set in any sort of reality or established fiction… Like, just picture it more like a self-sustaining city-island floating in a void. That’s probably close enough, right? But anyway, I figured of my characters, Lillian would be the most fitting to be in charge of tentacle monsters. She’s the incarnation of Halloween spirit, and that gives her an affinity for anything spooky or horror-themed, like Lovecraftian eldritch abominations. 

Kamas Hat-hor-het-aei Character Ask 1

So this Ask is actually more just world building than anything, I guess. I don’t get many opportunities to do writing for Kamas or the other Halloween characters, and this question seemed like a good chance to talk about them a little. It’s also nice that Kamas seems to have gotten more popular since I drew her for Halloween this year. She’s been discussed more on my Discord and cropped up in my suggestions, and I’m psyched that people are interested in her. Hopefully even if you aren’t interested in all the text (sorry about that, I know these answers sometimes get a bit verbose), you can at least enjoy the cat tits on display. ^_^

Izuku Midoriya Character Ask 8

So, this Character Ask is in reference to a previous one I did directed at Kota. It seems like Kota and Midoriya have grown closer since then. I don’t know how much there is to their relationship beyond the physical, but Kota’s found he quite enjoys servicing Deku, and Deku seems to be alright with being on the other end from how I usually draw him.

Also, here’s a new episode of “Near Talk”. This episode I mostly talk about my own experiences getting started as an artist and try to offer a bit of advice where I can.

Mito Freecss Character Ask 1

So this is a case where the character’s answer is kinda based on how I handle them in my work… Aunto Mito is a character who I like. I enjoy drawing her, but like the question mentions, it’s been a while. I only drew her once for a One-Shot comic back in March 2017. I haven’t drawn her since just because, well… I don’t have any good ideas for her. All I’ve got is pairing her with Gon and/or Killua, and I just figure people will get tired of that. So that’s why she says she likes to keep to herself. In the anime one of her roles is to read Gon’s letters, which serve as recap episodes, and I like to think she still gets to follow Gon’s career in the Near Hentai Studios. I don’t know if he still writes out full letters, but I’m sure he tells her all about his shoots with Killua, or the work he’s doing right now with the Freeman boys, or what have you. It’s also easier for him and Killua to visit when they’re not shooting content, since they all live in the same big studio complex, right?
