I’ve ended up drawing the Parks with Nanami a lot more than I thought I would when I first introduced them.
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:
So we’ve seen Corey and Yuji partner up a few times now. Like he says here, though, Yuji’s kinda the exact opposite of Corey’s usual type, so if he ever did fuck him it’d be purely bred from their friendship over what usually motivates him.
A close call on page twenty-six.
This is, I believe, only the fourth time I’ve drawn Rosalynne from my Applebridge OC setting. For those who don’t remember, Rosalynne is the mother of Terry Birch, and back in college she would frequently hook up with Mickie Cummins. I haven’t explored much with these characters in my content, but I did think it was high time to let them fuck on camera.
Here’s the business partner of Kenton and father of Brooke, Sean Bishop. Like Kenton, Sean is gonna play into later events in Sunkissed Youth, but for now I just wanted to kinda get his design set in stone. I wanted a kinda outdoorsy dad vibe for him, and hopefully that comes across here.
So this is both the end of Corey and Ms. Dumpsey’s first arc, as well as the launching point for a new series. There’s only so much I think can really be done with just Corey fucking the mean old lady down the road over and over. So, while he’s not done with her, we’ll go on to see him making use of her body to other locals in the series “Corey’s Dump Truck Rental.” I suspect it’ll be a while before I do more of this series, so don’t expect to see more right away, but I’ve been planning this turn for a while and it’s exciting to make it here finally.
So this is the father of Ty and Kobi Ray, Kenton. Kenton has a role play much further down the line in Sunkissed Youth, but I wanted to get his design down and established while I was in the mood. I plan to do the same with Brooke’s father eventually.
SInce Kobi’s hairstyle is inspired by an Inazuma Eleven character, I thought it’d be a fun nod for his dad’s hair to be based on that same character’s adult hairstyle. I think the end result is that it gives him a sort of regal vibe.
Shannon Valentino is another design I was kinda itching to draw, sort of a similar situation to Corinne Crane and her debut pic. Unlike Corinne I have a little bit of an idea who Shannon is and what I might like to do with her eventually. I have a Bio page planned for her, though it may be a bit before you see it as I have a couple others I intend to do first. For now I wanted to see her design fleshed out in a finished pic, from a more flattering/interesting angle than I’d usually use for a bio page.
So twice now Corey and Yuji have hung out “Corey’s way.” Corey’s capable of being a fair guy, so even if it’s not his thing really he’s willing to give Yuji’s way a chance here.
