I’ve been suggested to do the “weed cat” for the Near Pokédex for a while now. Obviously a lot of anthropomorphizing of Sprigatito involved dressing it up like a stoner, but I haven’t generally gone that human with this series so far. Like all cat Pokémon, though, Sprigatito’s design is inherently pretty cute and works well for this series so here he is.
I finally got around to doing another Studio Life Magazine cover, and this is the first one to be done with the Subscriber-nomination system I plan to use going forward. The theme I gave Subscribers was “bad girls”, in order to make sure we got out first female cover, and there were a lot of good nominations. I went with Jessie ’cause I feel like she’s got a pretty strong presence in my work while also feeling kinda underrepresented. I’m also just really fond of her, so it was nice to do a simple little pic like this. I’d like to do these a bit more frequently, if I can manage, since they’re pretty easy on me while also seeming to be popular with a lot of folks.
Due to the polls I was on Twitter a while back, Ash’s ass has received something of an elevated status in the Studio. I don’t think Clemont is quite bold enough to challenge that reputation, but I figured a little side-by-side might be fun to see for fans of these two.
Marill’s one of the many Pikachu-esque introductions Pokémon likes to introduce. The regular Marill is just a big ball, but I like the tail. I gave this one a bow like one Marill from the anime I remembered.
There’s still tons of first gen Pokémon, and while I’ll never get to all of them in this series I thought Rattata would be a good one to cross off my list. Rattata are some of the first Pokémon many people encountered, being one of the common smaller ones you’ll run into early in the original games. For that reason, in my head, this feels like an essential one to do for a project like this.
The Near Hentai Monthly Lady for March 2024 is Bonnie from Pokémon X & Y. I figured I’d go with the obvious approach and pair her with her big brother Clemont. I feel like it’s been a minute since I’ve done brother/sister incest, so I hope some of y’all will enjoy this.
With this post, NHML nominations for the month of April 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, Pokémon. 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 April 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!
With this entry I believe all of the Gen 1 starts and their evolutions are covered on the female side of the Near Pokédex. Blastoise is one I’d been putting off ’cause I wasn’t sure how to handle the shell with how I wanted to draw her body, but I decided to do what I’ve seen some furry artists do and just treat the underside of her shell like skin. I think she turned out pretty good, and I hope y’all will enjoy her.
I thought this pairing would be cute in a similar way to Rika/Renamon. I don’t have much to add here, though, but I hope y’all enjoy May and her Blaziken.
I was looking for the next Pokémon to do a Pokédex entry for, and Girafarig caught my eye. I think it has kind of a cute design on its own, but then I thought it’d be fun to something with the tail with a face, too. I like how this one went, and I hope y’all enjoy it.
