Velma Dinkley Character Ask 8

So we’re past the month of October when it comes to the public release schedule, but I wanted to do this Ask for other reasons. Beyond just always enjoying an excuse to work with Velma, it lets me lay out a few ideas/plans I have regarding the Mystery Solvers Club and the residents of the Studio’s haunted mansion. I don’t have any specific plans for implementing their collaborations into work, beyond a mention in any relevant Club Cards, I like the idea of certain spooky volunteers working with the club to arrange events. I picture them being a bit like murder mystery events mixed with classic Scooby-Doo shenanigans and ending in sexy funtimes, but I’ll probably keep them mostly vague like that for now.

As for Velma’s partner, I just used my own ghostly OCs recently for a different Ask, so I went with Sadako instead since I think some people were wanting to see more of her.

Ember Holloway Character Ask 3

Like with Serie, Sadako’s had a bit of attention in Asks since mostly off-screen debut in a Lord Tier commission not too long ago. I wanted to try working one of them out eventually, and thought this pairing sounded fun. The premise for how I handled the answer was that Ember wouldn’t see anything particularly scary about Sadako or her tape due to her own Halloweenish nature (sort of a “to me, a crazy straw is just a straw” type of comedic perspective). I hope that came across in how she answered.

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

Matrona’s Studio Adventures #2 – Seven Days Later

This is the second half of that earlier Lord Tier commission. This time the commissioner wanted to see Matrona paired with Sadako Yamamura from the Ring franchise. Sadako’s a pretty big pop culture figure, to the point that there’s already two parody/ersatz versions of her in the Studio. Since this is technically meant to be a Mini Commission-type pic she’s mostly cropped out here, but I tried to make it clear who she was regardless. I decided to pose Matrona with her feet up, since I don’t think we’ve seen her feet much in the other pics I’ve done of her. It hasn’t really come up in Asks or the like yet, but characters like Matrona and Diane aren’t typically walking around the Studio at full size, since it’s not built to accomodate them that way. With access to things like Pym particles or whatever, it’s pretty simple to keep them human-sized unless they’re gonna be big for a shoot.
