Pinup Sketch (March Week 4)

Here's the sketch for the final illustration for March! I am working on the colors now, and should have it up very soon. Then, I will get a jump start on April, probably with some close ups of the tall, silver haired girl. We've tackled the brown haired girl, and the curious redhead, so it's her tur...

Colored Pinup (March Week 3)

And here's the colors! Next one will be a group shot of all three girls, which will wrap up March. I'll send those rewards as soon as I finish it. I have some ideas to follow up the last group shot, so let's see what I can come up with!

More to come, soon!

Pinup Sketch (March Week 3)

Here's the 3rd pinup for March! The next one will be of the group of girls, I think. Got some interesting ideas to tie into the last full scene that I did. :)

I'll have the final one for March done in the next few days!

Colored Pinup (March Week 2)

You know, this sort of angle is a challenge to balance the cute and the sexy. The lines looked cute enough, but when I add the shading, well... It's hard to know when to stop adding detail to the butt, so it isn't "too much". XD

But I like it anyways! Hope you all do, too!

Pinup Sketch (March Week 2)

Here's the second pinup for March! Silly cute stuff is silly fun! Hope you all like it. :D

More to come!

Colored Pinup (March Week 1)

And here's the colors! I like this character. She's got a slightly different nose than I usually use. It's not much of a variation, lol, but it's a start!

More to come!

Pinup Sketch (March Week 1)

Here we go! 

I want to continue the scenes with all three of the girls at the summer lake cabin, but I figured I'd squeeze in some individual shots of the girls too. I've got three of this girl in the works, and then a full scene with the three will come after, as part of March's rewards....

Colored Pinup (February week 4)

Finally got this one done! really had fun with this one, though I definitely need to do some studies on evergreen trees... Personally, I like seeing the strokes in artwork, and it's fun for me to try and get basic shapes and brush strokes to read well as a picture... But I need to practice more on o...

Colored Pinup (February Week 3) Pink haired

So this is the alternate hair color I was thinking of, for the tall girl. The idea I had in my head was that she might be a bit like the pretty and tough girl, kind of snooty and stuck up, but still friendly enough to be part of the group. I wanted to make her stand out a bit, like she's used to get...

Colored Pinup (February Week 3)

Here's the colors for the 3rd week of February! I wanted to try white hair on the tall girl, but I might need to sit on it for a minute.... If I change it, I'll post the alt up, too. If not, well, no worries!

I just have one more to color before I send February's rewards, and then it'll be no ...

Colored Pinup (February Week 2)

Here's the colored version, at last! I'll have quite a lot of art to post this week, which should get me pretty close to caught up! 

Thanks for everything, guys! Hope you like how it turned out!

Pinup Sketch (February Week 4)

***EDITED WITH A BIGGER THUMBNAIL***

Here's the sketch for February's week 4! Unfortunately, it's hard to see in this thumbnail, but the symbols in the two scared girl's word bubbles are a picture of a bee, and a "Don't Touch" symbol. It'll be clearer in the final, full sized version (3840 x 2...

Pinup Sketch (February Week 3)

I drew some more characters than usual, as a way of saying thanks for being patient! I might do the next few as sequential pieces of these characters. It'll be fun. I might be projecting my eagerness for warm weather, with my art, lately. Since I am behind on these, it might have been smarter to do ...

Update - Dental surgery inbound!

Thanks everyone, for all the supportive comments over my tooth pain! I did end up going into the dentist office on Monday morning, under emergency situations. I woke up about 3 in the morning with severe pain. It was mind numbing! Funny how one little tooth can cause so much agony... To add to ...

Toothache!

I am a bit delayed in posts this last week, because of some bad tooth pain. More specifically, a pushy wisdom tooth. Despite the fact that there is simply no room for it, it just keeps trying to push itself through. It's been giving me trouble on and off for the last 10 years, but never so bad as re...

Colored Pinup (February Week 1)

And here's the color's for the first pinup for February! I wanted to practice the wet shirt effect, and the ripples was a nice added bonus. The background is pretty loose, but I like it. Hope you do too!

Thanks for your support! I will be sending the high resolution versions after the pledges ...

Pinup Sketch (February Week 2)

I wanted to do another of this character. Here, she's sneaking behind the cabin to change into her swimsuit, but maybe having second thoughts. Pretty risky, but maybe the bathroom is occupied, and maybe she's in a hurry. Who knows! lol

Thanks for your support! High resolution versions will be ...

Pinup Sketch (February week 1)

Here's the sketch for last week's pinup! I'll have the colors up in a day or so. Not sure what the background will be, but it'll be something! I've been doing a lot of water pics, I might have to move on to something else, soon.  I just wanted to try a wet t-shirt effect, which will show up in ...

Colored Pinup (January Week 5)

And the colors for January's 5th friday (kind of a bonus, really) are done! I decided to go a bit further with the scene. Just some more silliness. XD

I'll send the hi-res rewards within the next few days, after all payments have processed for January.

Thanks for your support!

Color Pinup (January Week 4)

Alrighty, got this one colored, finally! It looks Like January had 5 Fridays, so I owe you guys another one, making 5 pinups for January! I'll have it done by the 5th, when I send January's rewards. 

Anyways, what do you think of this one? Simple background, but I had fun with the ripples...

Pinup Sketch (January Week 4)

I decided to go with the girl from the last pic. I might put her in a river scene, or maybe a lake, considering that she was in a mountain forest setting, in the last one. Could be fun! I might have to change the shape of that clam to one of those freshwater mussels. I live in an area a lot like tha...

Colored Pinup (January Week 3)

Here are the colors! Man, I gotta practice evergreen trees more... I think I need a brush other than a simple round or square brush to make them really work. Looks like I have another thing to add to my list of things to practice!

Full sized images will be sent after the pledges for January ha...
