Like Yomi mentions here, Tomo Aizawa doesn’t have much in common with Tomo Takino, besides their names. If I’d compare her to anyone from Azumanga Daioh, it’d be Kagura. However, I kinda had an idea for how to have Yomi answer and still provide a fun image to go with it. I’m kinda interested in maybe doing some regular yuri between these two ladies eventually, but for this Ask I think it’s fine for Yomi to defer to Jun.
And here’s our seventh page. Tiana uses her feet to get Nanami back in shape.
Of the dicks involved in the pic referenced in this Ask, Krillin’s the closest to Corey’s type who I haven’t drawn him with already before.
And now, finally, we have a conclusion to our first match. Working on these four pages has given me a good idea of how long this comic will end up taking me to produce, and it’s gonna be long. Hopefully it’ll be a fun ride, though, as I’m pretty happy with the comic so far and have some stuff I’m excited for planned down the line. I’ll be starting work on the next page soon, so hopefully it won’t be too long before it’s ready.
This is kind of a simple one, but I hope people will enjoy it regardless. I feel like it’s been a minute since I’ve drawn Kizuku, and with the connection Gon had to both Killua and Izuku it feels like a straightforward pairing.
Here’s the April page of the second Near Hentai Studio Calendar. I initially forgot I was trying to include more month-specific details, so I added bunny ears and a more Eastery background last-minute to this one.
Even though I don’t really get it, people seem to really like when I draw Tanjiro. I kinda thought Vegeta just earnestly rating his ass in real time sounded funny.
Some of you may remember Evan King, an original character from my Spookyverse. His gimmick is that he’s a would-be monster hunter who, despite his best efforts, always ends up failing to take down the monsters he hunts and instead gets toyed with by them in some fashion. The idea behind this One-Shot script was to have him meet that fate with a bunch of “monster” type characters this Subscriber is into. Some of them are pretty obscure, and it wasn’t easy getting reference material for everyone, but here they are. The first panel is Surge from the Sonic comics, who I’ve drawn before and is probably the most mainstream character here. The second panel features Ms. White from a little webcomic called Pixa Chats, who’s actually appeared with Evan before in a commission this Subscriber did with a different artist. Appearing beside her is Scream, one of the many Symbiote characters from Marvel comics, who this Subscriber has nominated for NHML multiple times in the past. The third panel is a character I think is just called Minotaur, from a manga called “King of the Labyrinth”. I read a bit of it to prep for this comic, and did not care for it, but the Minotaur’s design is alright. The last panel features Amber from Space Leaper: Cocoon and Dinah from Unicorn Overlord, a couple of games I’ve never heard of and know nothing about.
I don’t talk about it often, mostly because I think the concept is a little confusing and doesn’t do much to support the smut, but characters in the Studio can remember their alternate timelines/realties/what-have-you. For the Disney princesses, there’s been multiple “universes” where they hang out as a group (my first thought is the long sleepover scene from “Ralph Breaks the Internet”), so I think they’d have that connection again in the Studio. That being said, I had a healthy selection of potential partners for Mulan here, but I went with Cinderella since she’s one of the classic princesses.
Pairing the Chainsaw Man with Lollipop Chainsaw was an obvious 1 Club option I’ve been sitting on for a while. I was originally planning to wait until after Denji’d gone “all the way” with Makima in a pic to do this one, but I might be running out of time and decided to go ahead and do this with them instead. If people like the pairing, I might could revisit them in a series like Studio Tour or something so Denji can fuck her.
For those interested, here is the Q&A video I did for Subscribers last month:
