Tiana Character Ask 1

By on Monday, January 12, 2026

So there’s probably more restaurant owners than I can think of in the Studio. Off the top of my head I can think of at least one other one, but when thinking about this Ask I was kinda drawn to bring back Himeka Manaka, the mother from PriPara who works as a chef at an Italian restaurant with her husband. Her husband isn’t in the Studio, but I liked the idea of her and Tiana’s restaurants being close enough to consider each other rivals. Now, for a few different reasons there wouldn’t be anything resembling a real rivalry there, it’s not like the real world where there’s a risk of going out of business or anything like that. But I figured it was a good excuse to bring back this character I haven’t drawn in ages, and give Tiana another left-field anime character she interacts with in the Studio.

Kurapika Character Ask 5

By on Tuesday, January 6, 2026

So at first blush I didn’t think I could really work with this question, just from the premise. I don’t think Kurapika would really have much opinions on assassins as a group, and the question feels a bit to me like asking someone what they think about other race car drivers because one of their friends comes from a racing family. I think the idea here was to do something with Kurapika and Shin, though, or at least that’s where my mind went with it. I thought it’d be fun to do something with them, so I tried to work with it here.

Hange Zoe Character Ask 2

By on Wednesday, December 31, 2025

So Hange and Ilse never got to meet in the actual canon of Attack on Titan, which is sort of the basis for this Ask. Hange finds and studies Ilse’s journal, which has valuable information on the only recorded instance of a titan talking, so I think it’s natural to assume she’d seek Ilse out for more info as soon as she heard she was in the Studio. Hange may not have to deal with titans in the Studio ever, but I doubt her fascination would die any with the separation.

Uwora Wildstar Character Ask 1

By on Monday, December 29, 2025

Some folks might know Siat Wildstar from my Studio Tour game, but I’m not really sure how many people are familiar with the project she comes from since I don’t use it or reference it often. Obviously many folks do know Eromugen, but I wouldn’t blame any newer fans for not being familiar.
Eromugen was a fantasy JRPG-inspired comic I did early on, and Siat was one of two main characters. In a flashback sequence we saw her mom, Uwora, and sister, Asuka. Asuka only appeared as a child there, but some time ago I got to give her the “modern” design she was meant to appear with later in the series, which is how she appears here. Uwora herself was also meant to reappear eventually, with an updated design, but I decided not to use that here and just stick with how she appeared in the comic pages that actually came out. This is the first time I’ve drawn these three together since those flashback pages in 2013, so it’s quite the little milestone for them.
The Ask itself is pretty simple. Anyone familiar with their story will understand why they’d be happier in the Studio. Uwora’s the type to keep to herself, but it was nice to see her get back on camera again I think.
Also, for anyone interested, here is the Q&A video I did for Subscribers last month:

Alphonse Elric Character Ask 1

By on Sunday, December 21, 2025

Of course I knew once Alphonse got into the Studio through that One-Shot people want to see him and Ed go at it. For that OS I used their end of series designs, but for this I wanted Al to better match Ed so I think this will be more like his default behind the scenes look. Nothing too shocking here with the answer, I imagine, but more just an Ask I hope will be a crowd-pleaser.
