She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

Studio Christmas Party Highlights 2023

Continuing the new tradition I started last year, for Christmas this year I want to take a little look at the annual Near Hentai Studios Christmas Party. A couple of these panels were ideas I had last year but couldn’t do, either because I ran out of space or because the character(s) I wanted to use hadn’t publicly debuted yet. Others are just ideas off the top of my head this year, and hopefully we got a fun mix of appeals. Also we get to see our 2023 Studio Santa again, and I immediately had this idea for how Scorpia would work in this role, which I think is fun. At any rate, I hope most of you can enjoy at least one of these panels, and I’m already looking forward to trying out more ideas next year!

Studio Santa #3 – Scorpia

Every year I randomly select a member of the Studio to be our “Studio Santa”. This is the third year we’ve done this now, and this year’s winner was Scorpia from She-Ra and the Princesses of Power. Scorpia’s a real gem in that show, and I’m quite fond of her, but her unique anatomy has deterred me from doing more pics with her. I think she makes a good Santa, though, especially since her default color scheme already kinda fits the theme. We’ll see her again at the Studio Christmas Party, but for now I hope y’all will enjoy this little pin-up.

Catra Character Ask 1

Since I tag Fusions a crossovers, Catra does technically at least appear under the crossover tag in my work, but I don’t really think that counts as a proper crossover. Not doing one with her wasn’t intentional or anything, but I think her antisocial tendencies make for a fine explanation as to why she’s only worked with people she knew well in her old life. For this pic, I went with Pearl mostly just because I like drawing Pearl but rarely do, and she’s a character I kinda enjoy pairing with anyone. Plus, cats love licking buttholes, so I thought Catra might get a kick out of Pearl’s blue little hole.

NHS Fusions – Catrina

The theme for this fusion poll was “catgirls”, so I had ten catgirls from the Studio up as options. I had to be a little loose with who qalified, which is how Catwoman got involved, but the ultimate winners here were her and Catra. For the name I decided to use Catwoman’s civilian name of Selina (but no last name, since Catra doesn’t have one). I like the resulting gal, here, and I hope y’all like her, too.

Entrapta Character Ask 1

This is a pairing I’ve actually wanted to do for a while, so when I came across this question I figured it’d be the perfect opportunity to finally bring these two together. Mei and Entrapta are not only both inventors, but a specific brand of cute manic mad geniuses, who also happen to have color schemes that pair well together. They’re one of those crossover pairings that almost makes too much sense, but I just never got around to doing anything with them until now.
Of course, there’s plenty of other inventor types in the Studio, Bulma comes immediately to mind for example, but Mei and Entrapta needed some more spotlight. Not only have I crossed one obvious pairing off my to-do list, but both girls have also now escaped “The 1 Club”, too! (More on that in a future post.)

Horde Barracks

This is an older pic I decided to pick back up. I thought it’d be fun to see a little sisterly bonding between Adora and her fellow Horde soldiers, Lonnie and Catra. Lonnie’s a character I liked a lot in She-Ra, but she doesn’t really have any natural pairings like most of the other characters in that show (the other direction to take her would be to pair her with Kyle and Rogelio, I think, but I decided to go this route this time). I’m happy to fit her in here, though, and maybe I’ll get the chance to draw her again eventually.

Adora Character Ask 1

So, I don’t really think of Adora as having a catgirl fetish or anything. Her connection with Catra is based more on their shared childhood experiences and escaping trauma, though being with a catgirl might make her find cat-like traits in others more attractive by association. Regardless, I did like the idea of pairing her up with someone, and I’ve been looking for an excuse to draw Dr. Pussycat again. This pic kinda built on top of itself with a handful of ideas, but I really like the final result.

 

Also, here is the Q&A vid I did for Subscribers last month:

Eda’s Ambition – Adora

Adora’s probably not really a “top” star in the Near Hentai Studios. I’ve drawn her a few times, but probably not as many times as I have Eda. So, even though I framed Eda’s motivation as wanting to work with the biggest or most popular stars, in reality I just want to cross her over with whomever tickles my fancy. For Eda’s purposes it doesn’t really make a huge difference, as her goal is to raise her number of appearances until she’s in the same league as the performers who made it into the Calendar project. I think Adora’s really cute, and I kinda like her dynamic with Eda here. I’ll probably do a future entry of Eda with She-Ra, but for now this is good enough.

Spinnerella Character Ask 1

I’m not really sure if I’ve talked about it before, but I’ve had an idea somewhere in the back of my head for, gosh… probably a couple years now, of doing a threesome with the Butt Witch, Pearl from Steven Universe, and Spinnerella here. I can’t remember the exact catalyst for the idea, but it’s one of many I keep thinking I’ll eventually get to, and I hope I will. I already did a Studio Tour pic of just Butt Witch and Pearl, and one of my AI-assisted fanfics alludes to the concept at the end of it, but I saw this Ask as a good opportunity to build towards it further. Hopefully eventually I’ll get around to drawing all three of them together, and it’ll be as nice as it is in my head, but for now it’s fun to see Sinnerella take some green cock up her backside.

Bennett Character Ask 1

So I don’t play or know much about Genshin Impact. All I know about Bennett is he’s an adventurer with bad luck who picks up a lot of injuries. Maybe off of that I could’ve paired him up with a woman who plays into his gimmick, I don’t know, but nobody really came to mind (and there’s no women from Genshin Impact in the Studio yet). I decided to go instead with a random pairing for this Ask, picking Mermista from She-Ra for a handful of reasons. One is that she definitely has the right energy for pegging; it’s very easy to picture her being the top in a heterosexual relationship. Another is just that I thought her colors would compliment Bennett’s colors well. Lastly, I just really like Mermista and had already been thinking of doing something with her again. So even if there’s no thematic element tying these two together, I think for the purposes of Bennett expanding his experience I can see them teaming up.
