Goku SSJ Magazine Pose

Last month I agreed to let a Lord Tier Subscriber upgrade their reward to a three-character pic for a little extra payment. At the time I knew that some of my other Subscribers at that tier who like to split their reward into two pics might see this as an invitation to get three one-character pics, but I don’t want to set that precedent as I think it’ll be a slippery slope from there. That being said, this month I had another Lord ask me about doing just that, but with their third pic only being an edit of one of their old commissions. I made an exception since it wouldn’t be a full new pic, but don’t expect to see something like this happen again.
What they wanted was the Goku Studio Life Magazine cover edited to be him as a Super Saiya-jin. Specifically, I was asked to make it feel like Goku how he appears in Space Emperor Slut, which included changing his expression along with the hair. A simple pic here, I know, but I hope some of you will like it.

2024 Year End Awards

Last year we began a new tradition, which is to have a sort-of “wrapped” final tally of some stats for our Studio performers. This year I’ve added a fan vote element, where several categories are decided by votes instead of statistics. Let’s go through the poll results first:











And now we get to the stat-based awards. Each category here is based on appearances from the year, using the SubscribeStar calendar (opposed to the public one).

First, we had no winner for the most One-Shot appearances this year so we’ll look at who the most Character Ask appearances in 2024:

Now, we’ll look at our Comeback Performers of 2024. This is the male and female performers who had the longest gaps between their returns this year and their last previous appearances:

Next is the Male Newcomer of 2024, the male performer who had the most appearances out of everyone who debuted this year:

And the equivalent Female Newcomer of 2024. This year, our Female Newcomer actually had the most appearances overall for the women, but since I do pics based on these categories it was decided to keep her in this spot:

And now, drumroll, our Male Performer of 2024. This is the male performer who had the most overall appearances this year:

And finally our Female Performer of 2024. She technically came in behind Kanamori, like I said before, but she had the most appearances of female performers who didn’t debut this year:

Aladdin (Magi) Character Ask 1

I drew this version of Aladdin once on commission a long time ago. Besides contributing to one of our NHS Fusions, though, I haven’t done anything with him since. I never really got into Magi, but I remember Aladdin being a fun protagonist and I like his design well enough. Of the candidates for a partner for this Ask, I thought Luffy paired relatively well with him.

Also, for those interested, here is the Q&A video I did for Subscribers last month:
