I used Canute for the first Christmas party after his debut because I thought his royal cloak, which is red with a white fur trim, had a Christmas/Santa vibe to it. In that party he was shown sucking off Mark, as referenced in his answer. He didn’t appear in this most recent party, but I figured he could’ve had some fun with Denji. Denji’s grown a new appreciation for pretty guys lately with Haku and Zarbon, and Canute fits well into that.
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!
Rio answered an Ask along these lines a while back, and I think Debbie has a similar perspective. While I do think Amber and Mark would have a better shot in the Studio than their real world, I think Mark and Eve are the “couple,” as much as that’s worth here. Like Rex, though, it’s easy to see Amber often being involved with them, and I always thought Amber and Eve made for good friends. Either way, Debbie seems to be enjoying them both here.
So with that recent Garnet Ask, there was a stage of the process where instead of Ed and Winry she would’ve appeared with Nolan and Debbie. Now, I dropped that idea for a number of reasons, but one of those reasons was I just didn’t think I wanted their first time appearing together in my work to be that. This, however, I think is a fine way for them to have their first Studio appearance together.
Last year we started a new Halloween tradition of a highlight comic set in the Studio Halloween party. Like last year, our randomly-selected costume model, Space Beth, takes the center panel while we check in around the party with the rest. I know some characters who appear here may be hard to place, especially in the glory hole panel, and I imagine some will only be identifiable through the tags in the public post. I’m pretty happy with how this comic turned out, and I hope y’all will enjoy seeing some of the Studio residents enjoying the spooky season.
There were actually quite a few scenarios I was considering this time around, but I decided to go with this one. The hardest part of working this scenario was figuring out, like, when during the poker game it should take place. I could’ve had them playing in various states of undress, or maybe even something deeper on past this point, but I decided right on end would work.
