This One-Shot was pretty intense to work on, fitting in the most shown characters the script would allow. I tried to vary things up with three different approaches to a yaoi threesome, and I hope y’all will enjoy the results.
So I kinda saw this Ask as a way to tie together a few different threads, mostly revolving around Yuji. Yuji has more friends in the Studio than these four, but I think this makes a good group and any more would’ve been too much for me to manage. Corey’s sitting this one out since it’s not his speed, but I decided to let Kipo join him on the couch since this Ask is taking up a “yaoi” slot in my production schedule. Anyway, I like this odd little Studio friend group and they seem to be having fun together.
The thing about wrestling is, while strength can be an asset, it involves a lot of skill and technique. A lack of patience in learning even the fundamentals would probably keep Inosuke from ever joining the Studio’s Wrestling Club, but he’s always up for a challenge so he stopped by for a quick exhibition. It doesn’t seem like things went his way, though.
Here’s the final page to this little comic. Everybody gets to finish on someone’s face. Some of you may remember that this comic was commissioned to help cover expenses following a personal disaster, but the commission I sold was for ten pages. This marks the end of the first half of that commission, and sometime down the road I’ll begin working on another five-page comic that makes up the second half.
A while ago Kintaro had his first taste of yaoi work in the Studio, but he played it safe with a partner who wasn’t that far off from the women he’s usually paired with. This time it’s a bit different, definitely more outside his comfort zone. I have no intention of moving Kintaro into a prominent yaoi role within the Studio, but he’s cute enough I figured some folks might like to see him on the other end of the equation at least once.
The winning February One-Shot was Demon Slayer focused. I actually recently started watching Demon Slayer, but only occasionally. Unfortunately, where I am in the show, really only the four main characters spread through these panels are the only one’s I’ve seen much of (and I already knew them just through my work). In fact, there’s a couple characters here I don’t think I’ve ever even seen before, even in passing. That being said, I did my best to capture them all here. I know there’s been some demand for Tokito from some folks, and there’s been people wanting to see Shinobu again after her Studio debut a while back. I also know that Mitsuri’s a pretty popular character, as I see her around often and always see a bunch of cosplays of her at conventions. So I hope fans of this series will enjoy seeing their ranks fill out a bit more in the Studio.
I feel like the Studio Tour series has really fallen off my radar in recent times, and I’d like to hopefully change that. I think it’s a great avenue for exploring random pairings I’m interested in, or introducing new elements to the Studio lore.
This is a pic I’ve had sitting on the back burner for ages, and finally got around to it. A while back I had Loid reference in an Ask that Yuji wanted to introduce him to a friend, and this was the pic I was thinking of when I did that Ask. It’s nice to finally get it out here, and we’ll see if I can get around to other pics in this series some time.
So Edward appeared with Inosuke and Yuji not too far back. I don’t really have, like, a specific dynamic or anything hammered out between these two, but I don’t think you always need one. I mostly just kinda feel like they look good together, so I think them having a bit of a casual fuck buddy type thing works well.
This is the fourth and penultimate page of Hot Yoga. Not sure yet when we’ll wrap this one, but for now here’s the bulk of this comic’s action.
This is a Dare where I had an idea of how it might play out that I thought was funny and wanted to draw it, basically. Now, I don’t know enough about Inosuke or Knuckles to do, like, a Death Battle analysis on who would win or anything, but I thought Knuckles topping would be the most interesting result for a handful of reasons.
