This is only the second time we’ve done this, but I decided to do another “swap” within the MomSwap series. Normally MomSwap is a list of mother/daughter profiles on the MomSwap app, not a depiction of the swapping that’s implied, but I like doing these when I can find the time. I picked out the Boonchuys and the Mankanshokus for this one a while back, long enough ago that I don’t remember the initial reasoning for it. However, I do like how they pair up here, and I hope y’all will enjoy it, too. It’ll probably be a while until I do another swap, but I’m open to hearing ideas for who people want to see swap moms.
A little while ago I mentioned having some more Shikimori content lined up, and this is what I was talking about. Miyako Shikimori is the titular love interest of Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie. We only see her mother, Miyabi, briefly in the anime, but I made a note of her as I think she’s got a great look. From what little we see of her, Miyabi comes across as a cold and stern mother, but is actually very supportive and loving. I’ve had these two on my MomSwap list for some time now, and I hope y’all will enjoy seeing them here now.
I’ve been meaning to get back to Laid-Back Camp in MomSwap for a while now, and I’m happy to finally visit the Kagamiharas. I’ve drawn Nadeshiko and Sakura a few times before, but this is Shizuka’s debut. I think for a lot of ones like this, with more than one daughter, I’d just focus on whoever the “main” one is. In this case, though, Sakura’s a pretty important supporting character and has also been one of the flag bearers for LBC in the Studio. So, I figured she should be involved, too.
This is the final of my three planned Aoi Hana MomSwap entries. Yasuko is a cool basketball girl that Fumi dates for a bit in the show. We meet her family, including a few older sisters and her mother. Chie, Yasuko’s mom, is a bit older than the other two moms from this series I drew. We only meet her briefly, but she seemed nice and I thought she had a nice charm to her so I wanted to draw these two while I was at it.
Also, for anyone interested, here is the Q&A video I did for Subscribers last month:
This is the second of the three Aoi Hana MomSwaps I have planned. Akira is Fumi’s best friend and eventual love interest, and while I like her as a character she’s less my type design-wise. That creates an interesting dichotomy here for this entry, because it’s basically the daughter I’m least interested in plus the mom I’m most into, of the trio. Anyway, I hope some of y’all will enjoy these redheads.
Sabagebu! is one of those shows I watched and mostly just thought was okay, but I ended up liking a few of the characters disproportionately to how I felt about the show. I drew Momoka a while ago with one of the other girls, but I thought she had a pretty hot mom and that they’d make a good fit for this series.
This is one of the original pairings on my list when I first started the MomSwap series. However, due mostly to the art style of Dexter’s Lab, I kept putting it off. I’ve gotten to where I feel pretty comfortable adapting Dexter’s Mom, but Dee Dee’s in-series anatomy only resembles a human’s in the vaguest possible sense. I think I’ve settled on an approach that works without completely erasing their original designs, although I’m not completely happy with it just yet. However, I do hope people will like seeing them here regardless.
This is the last of the three Tomo-chan Is a Girl! MomSwaps I wanted to do, with Tomo’s best friend Gundou and her business mommy. Now that these are done, there’s actually another anime with three mother/daughter pairs I saw recently. I don’t know when it’ll be, but probably the next MomSwap I do will be the first of those.
