Studio Tour 12 – Denji/Raditz

Denji and Raditz is one of those random crossover pairings that just kind of occurred to me one day. Now, to be clear, I don’t really see their relationship as romantic or anything, in this pic they’re just having some fun bro time. I do have a clear image of them, though, as this kind of stinky, troublesome little duo. It’s very easy for me to picture them hanging out and making something of a nuisance of themselves around the Studio, and I just kind of like the idea of them as pals. Of course, to illustrate that and be on brand means drawing them fucking here, but hopefully most of you won’t mind that.

Studio Tour 11 – Birdgirl/Harley

I sketched this one a good while back. I’m not sure if I can articulate why I really wanted to do something with these two together, maybe just because I consider their respective shows part of a similar trend, but I wanted to bring them together so here they are. I can think of several shows that portray the heroes and villains dynamic as more like a form of roleplay (sometimes even romantic/sexual roleplay) instead of a battle between good and evil. The show Birdgirl spins off of, Harvey Birdman, is one such example, even. So it made sense to me that, in the Studio where crime and villainy are all pretty much out of the picture, characters who miss that dynamic might instead take to a form of mock battle that functions pretty explicitly as foreplay.

Studio Tour 10 – Lum/Aimee

I wanted to draw these two characters together for a while. Aimee Brightower is one of two protagonists in Galaxy High, who I drew back in 2015. Lum is the female lead of Urusei Yatsura, who I drew on commission in 2020. Both girls were in the 1 Club prior to this pic, but I wanted to pair them with each other rather than more popular characters like I do for that series. So, instead, I dusted off the Studio Tour series for the first time in a while. Urusei Yatsura and Galaxy High have an interesting history together. Urusei Yatsura was extremely popular in its day (and has a new series airing right now, though I haven’t watched it yet), and Shinsha was tasked with creating a similar series for the western market, since importing anime was rare back then. They created Galaxy High, and inverted the “alien girl in human school” premise to “human boy and girl go to alien school”. They also traced some animation from UY for GH, including the last shot of the opening credits where Aimee looks a lot more like Lum than usual.

Studio Tour 9 – Pearl/Butt Witch

I don’t remember what first got me thinking about these two as a pairing, but I do recall being immediately interested in them. At first I started writing one of my AI-assisted fanfics pairing them up (those fics I’ve done a couple of where I write prompts and let an AI tell the story), and maybe someday that fic will go up on my site. However, I found myself more and more wanting to draw them, so I did this Studio Tour pic to bring the pairing to life. I might do more with them in the future, I’m not sure, and I do have another character I’m tempted to put in a role similar to Pearl later, too… But for now this is what we have, I hope y’all like it. 🙂

Studio Tour 8 – Ochaco/Mako

So this is a crossover pairing I wanted to do as soon as I was reminded of Mako back when I got a couple commissions for her… I almost did this pairing for the Ask where she ended up with Glimmer, but I’d already decided I wanted to do them for a Studio Tour entry instead. I just see a lot of parallels in their designs, both being brown-eyed, brown-haired, thicc girls with round, curvy designs and hairstyles. There’s actually at least two other characters currently in the Studio who also fit into this category with them (two that come immediately to mind, at any rate), so maybe I’ll try some other pairings out of that foursome of characters in the future. For now, though, I wanted to get out another Studio veteran/rookie type pic while Mako’s still fresh enough to the roster to be called a rookie.

Studio Tour 7 – Luffy/Frieza

So here’s the latest entry of the Near Hentai Studio Tour series, which serves as a follow-up to the last one where Luffy was in the audience for Frieza’s pole dance/strip show. Seems he found himself backstage later, and that slut was ready to go! It’s a little weird to draw Frieza with someone other than Goku or Vegeta, honestly, but in a good way. I have one other idea for something with these two, but there will probably be a handful of other Studio Tour entries before I do it.

Studio Tour 6 – Frieza/Ash

So the title of this one might be a little misleading, since Frieza and Ash aren’t paired together in the traditional sense… but they are the focus of this piece, so here we are. I had the idea a while back (like, before SES) of drawing Frieza pole dancing. I went back and forth on a few different options for the audience for said performance (Frieza’s soldiers or the Giny Force, the Z Warriors, anonymous aliens). Setting the pic in the Near Hentai Studio, however, let it be a bit more open. I still stuck mostly with people he knew before the studio in the audience (same with Ash in the background), but I like the narrative this approach creates. Both Ash and Frieza are sluts for attention in and around the Near Hentai Studio, and this is a fun way of illustrating that. ^_^ I was a bit worried about the colors for this one, but I think they turned out okay.

Studio Tour 5 – Riley/Launch

This was one of the first ideas I had when I started the Studio Tour series. I ended up pushing it back a bit for a couple other ideas, but now I get to present it here. I could’ve used almost any girl in the studio for Riley’s partner here, but I wanted someone who I’ve only used a couple times and want to use more but don’t have many good ideas for. So Launch it is. ^_^

Studio Tour 4 – Raven/Clementine

So the Studio Tour is a series that keeps getting put to the side. As a result, I have several entries for it sketched out, but it’s gonna take me a while to work through them. This one in particular is pretty old, but I’m happy to have it finished. I was inspired for this idea off how I’ve had Clementine answer a few of her Character Asks. Clementine has sort of ended up being a character we see more often talking about the NH Studio and such, rather than in-character talk of her games (mostly due to me not being super familiar with her games). I don’t remember why I chose Raven as the person for her to practice on (or to tutor her, however you’d like to see it), but she is a long-standing Near Hentai veteran. Her first appearance in my work (not counting colorizations) was in April of 2010, so she’s getting close to hitting a full decade on my roster, hehe. Good thing cartoons don’t age.

Studio Tour 3 – Goku/Killua

So it’s been a hot minute, but here’s a new entry in the Near Hentai Studio Tour series! I had the idea for this one early on in developing this concept. Gohan’s gotten to work with both Gon and Killua, and it makes sense to me he’d relate to his new friends his experience in working with Goku in Special Training. Naturally curious, Killua decides to investigate and, well… here we are. I don’t know yet if I’ll portray Gon trying out the Goku dick for himself, but it’s a possibility. ^_^
