NHS Fusions – Inkmethyst

By on Tuesday, September 27, 2022

The poll for this Fusion was a female-only one focusing on plus-sized characters. I can’t say I was surprised to see Inko and Amethyst win, both tend to get good reactions when I’ve drawn them in the past. I waffled a bit on how to handle Inkmethyst’s skin tone, but decided to not go full-purple on her. The lighting in the pic is a bit violet, but her skin tone’s still a human one, just a bit pinker than Inko’s normally is. I think this Fusion’s a cute one, and I hope y’all like her.

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

Character Asks Steven Universe

Amethyst Character Ask 1

By on Wednesday, May 5, 2021

So, like the last Ask, I needed a it of a simple one to do while I’m working on the monthly comic pages for SubscribeStar. This one stood out to me for a couple of reasons. One is just that we’ve never had a Steven Universe Ask, and I wanted to change that. Also, answering this one’s allowed me to give us our first good look at my version of Amethyst’s body, as her past couple of appearances haven’t really been full-body shots like this. Amethyst is fun to draw, and I enjoyed revisiting her here. As for her answer, it’s always a little awkward balancing a series own canon with my own version of the story, but I tried to have her answer reflect what I thought was reasonable and believable from what we see in the series. I’ve always liked the idea of Rose asking Pearl, Garnet and Amethyst to help her figure this sex thing out in preparation for Greg, and the way Amethyst and Greg interact in the show makes it very easy to extrapolate there might be at least a casual sexual tension between them. However, since Character Asks are limited to just who is in the Studio, Amethyst could only recollect on these exploits, rather than demonstrate them.

Amethyst’s POV

By on Saturday, January 16, 2021

I wasn’t originally planning to tie this to the Pearl pic I did a while back, but when I realized I’d ended up doing another Crystal Gem POV shot I figured that the title would work just fine. Vidalia is an old friend of Amethyst’s in the show, and I think their dynamic is pretty cute. We see Vidalia’s love for Amethyst in her art, as her garage is filled with paintings of her old friend after they’d drifted apart. I thought it’d be a little kinky to have her eating Amethyst out in that setting, so that’s what I tried to do here, though I’m a little concerned I was too subtle with the background and you can’t tell that those are paintings of Amethyst back there. At any rate, I wouldn’t be opposed to drawing more with these two somewhere down the line. Amethyst’s not my favorite Gem, but she is cute, and Vidalia’s absolutely my type.

Rubbing Her Gem

By on Friday, May 3, 2019

So the other day it occurred to me that, of the Steven Universe core group, Amethyst was the only one I hadn’t drawn yet (if you count Lapis and Peridot as part of the core group, then I also need to do Peridot). I’d started a few pics with her (I have a lot of dropped SU pics in the ol’ work folder), but nothing finished, so I did this quickie as a side pic while working on comic pages. I wasn’t thinking about Amethyst’s gem placement when I started it, but when I realized her gem was being covered up by Steven’s peen I decided to add some dialogue to go with it.
I have a lot of reservations when it comes to doing shows in the CalArts style. It’s why, despite loving Steven Universe, Gravity Falls and Star vs. the Forces of Evil, I rarely/never draw them. I think it mostly stems from my habit of trying to imitate the art style of the source show, and that just not working well with these shows. I can nail the CalArts face pretty easily, but it looks weird on the types of bodies I usually draw. When I try and simplify the bodies, I feel they end up looking weird for different reasons, and I run into all sorts of other problems. I’ve tried finding a middle ground in the past (and here), but I’m still not sure how well I’m doing it. At least I know those three shows I listed (and others like ’em) are getting a lot of content from other great artists who don’t have these same issues I do. ^_^;
