Cocotte Character Ask 3

I thought I’d have a little bit of fun trying figure out the character dynamic between Cocotte and Zangya with this one. One of the things these two have in common that made me want to pair them together in the first place is that they both have minimal characterization in their limited appearances. This means the “Studio” versions have a lot of their personality inferred or just made up, making them a bit closer to being OC’s than, say, Goku or the like. I liked the idea here that Cocotte answers with something pretty superficial and meaningless.
The original idea for the art here was going to be a bit simpler, basically just this pose but zoomed in more so you just see Zangya’s legs (not unlike the Gohan/Ashido Mini Commission from a ways back). I’ve been wanting to do the next pic in the series based on these two for a while, though, and I think that pent-up desire came out a bit and I ended up doing more-or-less a full pic of both characters. This made the Ask take up more of my daily schedule than I’d originally wanted, but I think the end result is better off for it. Hopefully sometime soon I’ll be able to do the actual next pic in their series.

Cocotte Character Ask 2

I can only assume the participants in the Tournament of Power don’t have a bunch of interaction after the tournament, right? I mean, they exist in different dimensions, so probably they’d only see each other with some help from some high-level authorities. I don’t know if this is something that’ll be touched on in future Dragon Ball works (or already has in ones I’m less familiar with), but Cocotte’s such a low-level priority character in the series that I can’t image she’d be too involved with anything like that anyway.
That being said, I’m sure Cocotte wouldn’t mind settling some scores from that tournament. In my eyes she came across as a bit buffoonish, so I imagine she’s probably embarrassed over how things went down (especially how she was eliminated). Of the characters she interacts with, Android 18 is I think the most prevalent. They fight a bit throughout it, and 18 is the one who eliminates her. Also, if we’re looking at the Cocotte living in the Near Hentai Studio, Cocotte has befriended another DBZ woman who’s been established as having some sort of beef with 18.

Cocotte Character Ask 1

I had a pretty good idea for how the text portion of this answer would go from the start. Obviously you gotta have her talk about justice, but then we can lewd it a bit by talking about keeping a fit body (and implying something naughty with these physical inspections). I thought about the visual portion for a bit, but decided I wanted to have her, y’know, “assume the position” for those inspections she’s mentioning. Mostly I just wanted to show her from an angle we hadn’t seen in her previous appearances.
People seem to be liking Cocotte so far, so there’s a good chance there’ll be more of her showing up. Of course I intend to do more of her series with Zangya, but maybe I can do some “canon” (as in, not set in the Near Hentai Studio) pics of her. I’m not really super interested in drawing the other Pride Trooper members, honestly, though it might be fun to pair her with people from the other universes in the Tournament of Power. We’ll see if people still like her in this pic and the other ones with Zangya, I suppose.

Cocotte’s Orientation, Part One

So the idea for this pic came to me a bit ago. Originally it was going to be a Studio Tour entry, but I started wanting to do a bit more with the idea and didn’t want the next several Studio Tour entries to all be dedicated to it. I didn’t quite have enough to do a full comic, though (and I’m already doing more of them than I’d like), so I decided it’d be best to do this as a series of pictures. I don’t know just yet how many entries there’ll be, we’ll be seeing more of these two later when I get around to Part Two.
I’m not sure what got me started thinking about it, but something felt right about pairing Zangya and Cocotte up. Maybe it’s just that they’re two colorful, elven-eared alien girls who play largely bit roles in their limited appearances, but I felt like they’d end up kindred spirits. True, if they met in the world of Dragon Ball they would’ve certainly been enemies (Zangya being a pirate/mercenary/criminal or whatever and Cocotte being a soldier of justice), but here in the studio that dynamic just doesn’t exist so they can meet on more neutral terms. Anyway, hope y’all will look forward to the next installment of this series!

Pride Trooper Training

So, the final season of Dragon Ball Super introduced a ton of new characters, many of whom I took an instant liking to. Hopefully I can get around to drawing some of those others eventually, but for the time being I finally got around to Cocotte, here, the lone female Pride Trooper from Universe 11. My first thought when I saw her in her uniform was that it’d be fun to rip that uniform up, so that’s what I did! I didn’t really want to pair her with a specific character this time around, so she’s getting it from some random Pride Trooper (I’m not positive, but I assume there are other members than the ones we see in the tournament). I’m not sure if I’ll draw Cocotte again, I guess it’ll depend on how well she’s received in her debut.
