I mentioned before some sketches of Sadness I had lying around, and decided to get at least one of them inked and colored. There may be some more eventually, as I think she’s very cute, but we’ll see.
So Joy isn’t able to get into the specifics here, but I figured I might just in case anyone was interested. So the emotions in Riley’s head are, of course, metaphorical. Like, I don’t think if you put her in an X-ray you’d see the command center and everything in there. So, to bring Joy into the Studio, she was brought in separately as a character, which is also why the other emotions aren’t in the Studio. Then, for her brief appearance in Sleepover Raid, she was set up in a set made to resemble the inside of Riley’s head from the film. This means that, within the Studio canon, Joy can act freely and interact with other characters, including Riley. I’m sure Studio Joy wouldn’t waste much time in doting on Riley, and I tried to make it clear they have an ongoing dynamic where Joy embarrasses Riley in one way or another.
I’m hoping to do a little more Inside Out stuff sometime in the future. Riley has a new, slightly older design in that movie, plus I’ve never gotten around to her MomSwap (although that one will probably use the first movie’s designs). I have some sketches of Sadness I’m thinking of dusting off, plus I’m interested in maybe doing something with Riley and Val from the second film. No clue how much of that will end up seeing the light of day, but this Ask is me exploring going back to this franchise a little eventually.
So I know there’s gonna be at least a few of you who saw the title of this pic and assumed it was new Boondocks porn, and to y’all I apologize. I haven’t drawn Riley Andersen since Sleepover Raid wrapped up, and I decided to change that. When I first saw Inside Out I had figured I’d be drawing Riley a fair amount. I really like her design, and her being just a normal girl would make it easy to plug her into all sort of situations. That didn’t happen for whatever reason, but the other day I found myself really drawn to the idea of doing more with 3D lolis from films and television. I’m not sure how long that urge will last, or how much it’ll change my output for the time being, but if you do see more Dreamworks/Pixar/etc. girls showing up around here in the coming weeks, that’s why. For this pic I’d originally planned on it just being any old dick she was licking, but then I decided to add in the bottom of a jacket to help imply it’s Jordan, the boy she meets at the end of the film and goes on a date with in the short film that came with the home release.
I can’t say for sure when Riley will show up again in my own work, but I do 100% intend to bring her into the MomSwap series eventually. I wouldn’t be opposed to doing a few more simple pics like this with her in the future, though.
