Silas Holloway Character Ask 2

So there’s been a couple times where Silas and Eren have ended up sharing screentime together. I was just kinda tickled by the idea of Silas answering how he does here, and Eren showing a bit of a different side as well. I’m not sure exactly what it is about these two that I think is cute, but I hope some of y’all will agree.

Also, for anyone interested, here’s the Q&A video I did for Subscribers last month:

MomSwap – Chika Watanabe and Mom

So I watched Seiyuu Radio no Uraomote, or The Many Sides of Voice Actor Radio, a while ago and enjoyed it. It’s about two voice actresses who discover their private civilian identities are classmates, and through some shenanigans end up hosting a podcast together. It’s nothing terribly special, but I remember liking both of the lead girls and their moms, which is why I set them both aside for future MomSwap entries. I remember there being a few other ladies in the show I was fond of, plus it had a lot of fake anime made up for the series, like My Dress-Up Darling, which is something I always enjoy in anime about anime.
Up first is Chika, who’s the more sullen and serious half of the lead duo. Her mom is similar, being the stricter of the parents we see, but here they’re able to get a bit more loosey-goosey and have a little fun together.

Tiana Character Ask 1

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.

ClashMe #6 – Harley Quinn

For our next villain profile, my Subscribers voted for Harley Quinn next. Specifically the Batman: The Animated Series version of Harley, which was the only version of her when I was a kid. I’ve always had a real fondness for this character, and I decided to have her give the camera a good angle for her profile. The HBO version of Harley is also in my pool of characters who might show up for a poll sometime in the future, but she’ll have a very different profile if she ever ends up in this series.

Subscriber Scenarios #16 – Giant Pussies

So I don’t really know anything about these Seven Deadly Sins giants, but I was drawn to this Scenario for a couple reasons. One is just that I know Diane is popular, and has been a frequent nominee for NHML, so bringing her in here is something I figured some of y’all would fuck with. Another is, while the Scenario is framed narratively around Diane and Matrona, I had this idea of Nolan teaching Mark, since he strikes me as someone who’s been with a variety of body types in his “wild oats” days. So the Scenario has maybe a slightly different lean to it than this Subscriber had in mind, but I like this angle and I think it’s fun.
Matrona seems to have two hairstyles, one in flashbacks and one in the modern time of the series, I think. I don’t really know which fans of the show would consider he normal or default look, but I leaned more towards the latter design here where I used her flashback one last time I drew her.

Kurapika Character Ask 5

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.
