I can’t believe it took me this long to get around to the February page of our second Calendar project. I suspect finishing the first NHS Calendar made me unknowingly file it away as “finished” in my head, and I just haven’t gotten deep enough into this second Calendar for it to feel real yet. Regardless, I did manage to get our second page out, with Beast Boy getting paired up with the Freeman boys. Since February is the month of love and all, I decided to put them in a love hotel.
So some of you who don’t follow my work very closely may not be familiar with Trainer Anya. She’s a Pokémon trainer based on my friend Anya Lykke (https://twitter.com/AnyaLykke) that I’ve drawn a couple times. Now, Anya wasn’t fishing for a drawing of this character with this Ask (if that’s what she wanted, she could’ve just asked Trainer Anya a question, since I view her as one of my OCs), but when I was thinking about how to answer it I decided it’d be cute to draw the Near Pokédex Sylveon with Anya.
Just a note, this Ask is actually being posted way earlier than it should be so it’ll land on Valentine’s Day. The publicly-released Asks are currently still in the January batch, but this one came out of the February batch. I think it’s worth it, though, to get it out in time for the holiday.
This is a commissioned piece I recently finished featuring Terra of the Teen Titans. The idea behind this picture is that Terra is “trapped” in these earth stocks but, since her power is to control earth, the implication is that she’s only as trapped as she wants to be. Hence, the seductive look she’s giving you, teasing you.
I’m not sure why, but somehow this picture was a lot easier to make than most of the pics I do. I’m not sure if it’s because there was only one character, or what, but when I got the description I was sure it would take longer than it did. However, I pumped it out in less than half the time I usually allot for for standalone pictures. Not that I’m complaining, mind you, as I’m still playing catch-up on some of my commissions. Hopefully we’ll be seeing a few of those pop up around here soon.
