I don’t think there’s much cause to trick Bolin or anything here, so I went with a straightforward answer.
The Near Hentai Monthly Lady for August 2026 is Sandy Cheeks from SpongeBob SquarePants. I know this series is a cultural phenomenon, but I mostly missed it just due to the age I was when it came out. I had just gotten a bit too old for cartoons, but not old enough to appreciate them the way I do now, so any new shows I didn’t grow up with just seemed really off-putting to me at the time. Add the fact that the show’s initial advertising made it look way more like what we’d call brain rot today than it actually was, and I never really gave it a chance. I did see some of the early/iconic episodes later, and I’m no stranger to the franchise, but I never had the kind of relationship with it I imagine many of you did.
That being said, I do like Sandy. I’ve seen a few artists do stuff I really like with her, and I had fun tackling a different aesthetic than usual for this one. Hopefully my interpretation of her lands well, as I’d actually be pretty open to doing more with her down the line. I toyed with a few potential partners for her. Karen and Pearl are two characters from the show who I’ve also seen used well in fanart I’ve liked, but I went with what I consider the safe option instead. I went back and forth on how exactly to position SpongeBob here, but decided that with the way he moves and stretches in the show I could get away with some liberties I took in order to get Sandy positioned how I wanted.
With this post, NHML nominations for the month of September are now open. For those who don’t know, I’ll run down the rules real quick. Nominations are limited to one per person. You can nominate any female character you want, provided I have not drawn her within the past calendar year (though I prefer characters I’ve never drawn, period). Previous NHML winners are not eligible for a second time. Nominees must also not be from the same franchise as this month’s winner, Spongebob Squarepants. If you violate any of those rules, I’ll let you know, and you can nominate someone else. I know it can be hard to keep track of these things. You may nominate by either commenting in the cBox, commenting on this post, or emailing me (Nearphotison2010@yahoo.com). I’ll compile a list of the nominees in the sidebar of this site, and then on September 1st I will use a randomizer to select the winning character who I will proceed to draw sometime that month. I look forward to seeing who you all nominate this time around!
So this is a bit of a follow-up to an older Ask with Azula (which is why I included her here). That Ask focused on Mai trying to not make noises, but still letting out cute sounds in spite of herself. I think the idea here was to see her pushed beyond that, so Ty Lee attacks her weak point for massive damage.
Maybe a bit of a straightforward or obvious answer here, but I think Canute and Desna could hook some good cock by presenting themselves as a package deal. For the guys the got for this Ask, I wanted to go outside the usual handful of tops I draw frequently, so they got Ogun from Fire Force and Yami from Black Clover.
I know it’s been a while, but here’s the third entry in the Grave of Teenage Asses series. I’ve known for a while I wanted to bring back Danny for this entry, and I hope y’all enjoy seeing him here.
This is a Mini Commission for one of my Subscribers, featuring the later season version of Jinora. I didn’t really watch this stretch of the show, but I know this version of her from fan content.
I think Desna earned himself a little bit of interest with his appearance alongside Canute in a recent Ask, so here he gets to appear by himself a bit. I didn’t really feel like him giving a numerical answer, like “three” or something, would be that interesting though, so instead we get to see what constitutes Desna’s playful side in his response.
There had been another variation of this Ask where Canute was asked about similarities to other bottoms, but I think the answer I had in mind works just as well here as it did for that one. Canute doesn’t have a yandere twin sister (unfortunately), but beyond that I think there’s a lot of parallels one could draw between him and Desna. I think they make a cute pair here, too, and I hope y’all enjoy seeing them pose together.
Continuing our annual tradition, here’s another Studio Christmas party! I had a couple people I thought would look really good in Santa outfits, and a few others I just wanted to draw. I’m really happy with how this year’s party turned out, and I hope y’all will enjoy seeing a handful of Studio residents living it up!
This might be a somewhat controversial opinion, but Mai’s one of my favorite Avatar girls. I’ve actually been itching to do something with her for a few months now, and I thought this Azula Ask sounded fun. Mai debuted alongside Azula in Ty Lee’s NHML pic, but Ty Lee was between them and naturally the focus of the pic. Here now they can interact directly a little bit, with a smidge of Azula’s old sadism coming out as she enjoys making Mai’s facade crack a bit.
