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.
So it’s been a long time since I did an HOS pic, and there’s a few different reasons for that. One of the big ones is that I feel people didn’t necessarily vibe with this series, which is likely due to it having a darker story/connotations than even the other dubcon type stuff I’ve done before. I had this one already drawn up and planned, but I probably won’t do a fourth entry in this series unless I have an idea I really like for it.
Anyway, this one introduces Loren and Lucien’s mothers. Their families have close ties, which is how Loren and Lucien got to be friends, but it seems their mothers might have some tensions. The Hidden Orchard Society makes sure they’re close regardless.
Also, for anyone interested, here is the Q&A video I did for Subscribers last month:
I worry sometimes that Goku’s generous ratings might get old, but I decided to do this one for two reasons. One is just that I haven’t spotlighted Majuub much. He was mostly hidden in the OS I first drew him in, and other than that I’ve only ever drawn Uub. Speaking of Uub, the second reason is that I thought this could work is that Goku could also talk about him a bit.
Dizzy, or Queen Dizzy, is a Guilt Gear character and someone one of my Vanguard-tier Subscribers wanted to see. Specifically, they wanted to see her Strive design, which is what I shot for. Like most Guilty Gear characters, she has a bit of a complicated design and isn’t easy to draw, so I don’t expect to see her showing up in, like, Asks and stuff.
I kinda figured we would do something with Satsuki and Kanamori following that Ask with Ryūko. I don’t have a lot I want to add here, but I hope people will enjoy seeing these two together.
This here’s another Lord Tier commission for one of my Subscribers. Like the last one, this Subscriber paid a little extra to bump the reward up from two characters to three. We have here Killua sandwiched between Nobimaru from Kemono Jihen and Oliver Grayson from Invincible at a hot spring location.
So this is one where I didn’t so much have a great or interesting answer in mind, but more just thought it’d be fun to draw Chel again. Rather than pair her with an anon or someone else from around the Studio, I put her with one of her boys. Of the two, I remember Tulio being the one she had better chemistry with.
This is a Vanguard Tier reward featuring Retto from Super HxEros, an ecchi sentai series I have a passing familiarity with. The series has a bit of a harem thing going on, where most of the characters are attractive women who gravitate around Retto, but one of my Subscribers was interested in seeing the man himself. He has a design that’s a bit familiar, but I hope y’all will enjoy seeing him here.
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.
