April Post (Kelda)

So, if you follow my Twitter, you'll notice that this isn't a new piece -- I actually did this on the 23rd of April. Neither of the pieces I finished today felt right for a Patreon post, so instead of compromising and posting something here that I wasn't quite satisfied with, I picked my favorite pi...

March Post (Cup O' Plenty)

A bunch of stuff I enjoy crammed into a drawing...dripping liquid, bodies of water, long hair, big boobs, inhuman characteristics, flat colors and clean lines. It's simple and indulgent, but I really like how this turned out. Hopefully y'all will, too.

I could picture this as a pretty sick album c...

February Post (Watering the Garden)

I felt that limiting myself to pinups for these Patreon pieces is kind of stifling, so...I tried something different. If you're looking forward to just a cute girl with little/no clothes on, no worries! There'll still be a couple of those in the February Picture Pack.

My inspirations for this piec...

January Pinup (Kelda)

Hey! So, it's been a heck of a month. I spent the first ten days of January horrendously sick with the stomach flu. After that, I had a tough time getting back into the swing of the daily drawings, so I decided to try something different. I've been working on a short (10-20 page) original hentai man...

December Pinup (Blue Orchid)

As usual, this looked much cooler in my head, haha. But I did what I could, and I still think it turned out alright. The holidays have been rough on my work schedule (two family Christmases -- one of which we're hosting at our house, extended relatives stopping by, impromptu get-togethers), but I di...

November Pinup (Azura)

Tried something different again! Lots of chunky textures, color blending and linework that's meant to be more organic and relaxed. I like how it turned out, and hopefully you will, too. :)

October Pinup (Sona)

So, I started playing League of Legends. That's your frightening news for Halloween, I guess...lol

There're a lot of quality waifus to be found, and even a few blue-haired ones. I decided to try my hand at Sona, since I already did a sketch of Jinx this week. I know my inexperience at drawing inan...

September Pinup (Kathleen)

Hey! I decided to try something a little different with this month's pinup, lol. This is my character, Kathleen, sending a snap to her boyfriend, Otto. I've been wanting to draw both of them again, and I though...

Update type of thing?

So, hey! First of all, thank you so much for your support. Patreon money is still my main source of income, and while I'd never expect anyone to donate any money for the art I make, it's something I've come to depend on somewhat for my monthly expenses.

Despite this, I wanted to make you ...

August Pinup (Yuki-onna)

Yuki-onna (snow women) are probably my favorite yokai. I drew this gal once quite awhile ago, and did a quick sketch of her this month, but I thought it'd be fun to do a full pinup of her, too.

I didn't t...

July Pinup (Lucina)

All these FE Heroes swimsuit characters got me thinking, so here's my take on Lucina at the beach.

I actually used the same swimsuit design I did for the Waifu Wars/Smash Girls at the beach sketch from awhile ago.  No suikawari stick this time, though.

June Pinup (The Countess)

You know, it may not seem like it, but there's a subtle blue tint to her hair, so this still counts for my streak of blue-haired pinups. :)

I was struck with an idea for an OC of mine, the blood-bathing Countess -- a limited color palette, minimal skulls with screen-toning, and her looking back ov...

May Pinup (Miku)

I wanted to draw Miku, and I wanted it to be cute, loose, use pastel/soft colors, and I also didn't wanna think too hard about the end results. I think I pretty much accomplished what I set out to do with this piece, even though I'm still not completely satisfied with it. 

I tried a bunch of ...

April Pinup (Dizzy)

Another month, another blue-haired babe.

I've been in a bad way this month, and I know this isn't my best work. I'm just glad I managed to finish anything at all, to be honest. I'm sorry to disappoint anyone, but hopefully I captured at least a little of Dizzy's cuteness here.

Thanks so much...

March Pinup (Ferri)

Another blue-haired babe! I'm a big fan of Granblue Fantasy, and Ferri was one of the first characters that got me interested in it (even though Vira is the waifu in that game, let's be honest).

Speaking of Granblue, I'll also have a drawing of Silva in Shunao's upcoming Granblue fanzine/artbook (...

February Pinup (Aqua)

Continuing the theme of blue-haired chicks, here's Aqua from Konosuba!

This might be the first time I've drawn a pinup character in just her regular outfit, but after sketching her out in a bra and panties, it didn't quite give the feel of "collapsing onto the bed after a long night of chugging wi...

January Pinup (Kurokami Medaka)

A new year, and a new wave of pinups is on the way.  Instead of sticking with the Smash girls theme, I'm moving on to highlighting some of my favorite blue-haired ladies -- and first up is Medaka, from the manga/anime series Medaka Box. 

She's strong, confident, loves to show off her bod...

December Pinup (Ice Climber Nana)

I thought an Ice Climber would be apt for a winter pinup, so here she is!  Tried some slightly different stuff with the cel shading (applying airbrushing within the shadows themselves) that I think softens it up a bit.

Nana is cute! And I love wool thigh highs! Overall, this was a fun finale ...

November Pinup (Rosalina)

I decided to make this month's pinup a little more close-up and intimate than usual...and to do my best to emphasize Rosie's softness and curves.  Hopefully you guys will enjoy it.

(and Happy belated Thanksgiving!  Hope you had a good one.)

General Update-type Post

So, lots of interesting stuff happened lately -- some it cool, some of it not-so-cool.

For one thing, my Tumblr got deleted.  Almost 30,000 followers and over 500 posts, gone (although I have all the artwork saved myself, so that's not really lost).  It happened because someone claiming ...

October Pinup (Peach)

Happy Halloween!  Instead of something spooky, I drew Peach.  Hopefully you guys won't mind.  Working hard to put the stuff I've been learning into practice, and I think it's paying off.  Things'll only get better from here~

(I'm going to write a separate "news and current affa...

September Pinup (Sheik)

Sheik was a tough one.  I decided from the get-go that she'd be wrapped in bandages, but her pose/mood I couldn't figure out for a long time.  Ended up being a mix of a lot of things, with the main focus being her abs and thigh/ass, and her mysterious nature.  Her pose is conflicted -...

Declined payments for August

For some reason, I can't send out the usual reminder message for everyone whose pledge was declined for August (keep getting an error), so I'll let you know in a post!

If your pledge was declined for August, you will not have received a message from me with a link to the August picture pack.  ...

August Pinup (Wii Fit Trainer)

I got it done! I wanted WFT to be stretching and contemplative, and give that kind-of-mysterious air that I think defines my version of her character.  She's not the type to look at the viewer -- she does her thing and doesn't care whether you're watching or not. Kept her underwear pretty basic...

July 2016 patron supported

Thank you so much for the support this month!

July Pinup (Samus)

I used the pose from William-Adolphe Bouguereau's Birth of Venus...I'm no Bouguereau, but I still think it turned out pretty nice.  I wanted Samus to look confident and cool, but still sexy...hopefully I managed that.

Thanks, as always, for your support!  Hope y'all have a great weekend!...
