So there’s probably more restaurant owners than I can think of in the Studio. Off the top of my head I can think of at least one other one, but when thinking about this Ask I was kinda drawn to bring back Himeka Manaka, the mother from PriPara who works as a chef at an Italian restaurant with her husband. Her husband isn’t in the Studio, but I liked the idea of her and Tiana’s restaurants being close enough to consider each other rivals. Now, for a few different reasons there wouldn’t be anything resembling a real rivalry there, it’s not like the real world where there’s a risk of going out of business or anything like that. But I figured it was a good excuse to bring back this character I haven’t drawn in ages, and give Tiana another left-field anime character she interacts with in the Studio.
Not too long ago Zarbon told us about how Vegeta really only does his ass-rating gimmick for the cameras, so here he is in front of the cameras. Al’s gotten some quick action already since his debut, but where he got to top his brother he’s now experiencing the other end. He doesn’t seem to mind it.
Continuing our annual tradition, here’s another Studio Christmas party! I had a couple people I thought would look really good in Santa outfits, and a few others I just wanted to draw. I’m really happy with how this year’s party turned out, and I hope y’all will enjoy seeing a handful of Studio residents living it up!
This is a Dare where I had an idea of how it might play out that I thought was funny and wanted to draw it, basically. Now, I don’t know enough about Inosuke or Knuckles to do, like, a Death Battle analysis on who would win or anything, but I thought Knuckles topping would be the most interesting result for a handful of reasons.
Kanamori has a really good personality for topping other girls, and it’s part of why she’s done it so much so far. Less of the mean or cruel type, but definitely bossy, it’s easy for me to picture her calmly but firmly drilling a girl to squealing, toe-curling release. While I think she’s a natural for that role, I don’t see her as being strictly a top or anything. I’ve already drawn her getting fucked pretty good by some guys, but she can take it from other ladies, too. I went back and forth on a few different partners for her here, but I ended up settling on Pearl. Pearl’s kinda the inverse of Kanamori, in that it’s much easier for me to picture her bottoming, but she has some room to switch it up. She’s also a tall, gangly type like Kanamori, which I think makes them natural foils and a good fit for this Ask.
Although Asta established a connection with Inosuke in his last Ask, I don’t really picture Inosuke getting his bod from a gym. I do picture that quite easily for Obi, though, who Asta has worked with before. I figured he’d be a natural workout butt for Asta, and I thought they could try out a bit of an adventurous pose to really stretch and work those muscles.
So we’ve occasionally done these sorts of Asks, where the premise is built on two characters bearing a resemblance. Once of the points of comparison for Ed and Link, the prosthetic arms, isn’t really present in the Studio, but they’ve still got the blonde ponytail thing going on. I don’t think they’re quite close enough to warrant confusion, though, but I did think the idea of them being seen as a good pairing for a bigger top sounded fun. I actually had something I was toying with for a bit featuring these three characters specifically, and I thought this Ask would be a fun way to test the waters and see if y’all like this dynamic or would want to see more of them.
