Nagatoro Posing #3

I inked/shaded one of my abandoned sketches. Also was kinda trying to ditch my faux halftone on the skin/shadows since I hate the moire effect.

Final frame+final shot. Eva2.0: 0251 uncropped

Technically I've spent years on this on and off, but that's one itch defeated.

I can't remember if I previewed a previous gif here before, but if I...

Frame 13

Inbetweens may be too difficult. Final frame and shot should be posted together first week of new year. Investigating painting the background and foreground elements of the other shot. Have an additional art in the chamber.

Apologies for the...

Frame 12 AB

The flushing continues. Combined and in motion they do actually look good, like a bottom-up flush. Two more keyframes and the shot will be complete. I don't think reverse engineering the inbetweens, including the half-keyframed in-between, will be...

Frame 11 ABC

In drawing up this keyframe I double checked the source for frame timing and spotted the flushing which is an easy bit of inbetweening so why not. Same will apply to the next frame. The second to last keyframe is only partial and is halfway an inb...

Frame 10

Bad week actually. Personal reasons and not just *gestures*. Witnessing another Twitter artist exodus so hopefully Bluesky picks up for consumers too.

Frame 11 is a good one tho. There should just be 4 frames left, there is a half s...

Birthday 2024 - OC Kiki

It's my birthday, I'll redraw my OC profile pic with the subtle redesigns if I want to.

Frame 9

I NEARLY FORGOT.

It'll be my birthday next week and I'd like to post a thing but I'm not sure if there is a thing yet. Unfortunately I like to: read, watch, game, write, draw; and I can only do two or three of them while the other three or t...

Frame 8

Yes, my content is very erratic.

A very long term family/legal thing has supposedly finally resolved, stress might not be over and there's a string of birthdays that turns the whole thing into a gauntlet, but I'll try to keep doing somethin...

mech wips

Nearly forgot. Sorry I'm not doing lady bodies or anything cool. Mechs should have me moving on to silhouettes instead. Generally either distracted or doing wordy work.

Also it's slowly turning into Shockwave which isn't intended.

WiPs still

I actually had nothing since I'm still writing in Google Docs and happened to accidentally do some design work on this yesterday so I guess this is the thing. This work isn't specifically mecha, but the thing kinda materialised. It's a start, and ...

Some edits

Fuck me, two weeks already. I have nothing new to add, I've been on the writing side, I'm enjoying some media consuming time, I've also been volunteered for a small very minor very brief editor role for the story of an early access Steam game. Kin...

Text update

Nothing to present, unless you wanna see screenshots of the Cardflow app. Cardflow creates digital boards with endless index cards you can write on to help with brainstorming and structuring stories. Also a way better form of spontaneous notetakin...

Nagatoro manga render + wips cont.

As soon as I looked at that finished painted wip I needed to make more changes and just made a little turnaround and had a lot of inbetween phases with what you see above. Just trying to feel good about it, even if it seems subtle. The brief for m...

wait a goddamn minute

Forget yesterday's, this is much better.

continued wipping

I had nothing and rather than make a post about writing I guilted myself into making this last night. I'm probably going to keep trying because I can't seem to get the face/eyes/anything quite right.

There was a colour scheme in my head, and...

Nothing but tone-talk

Nothing new to post, distracting/relaxing two weeks. More concept work and working shit out stylistically.

If you read manga you might be aware of the dot matrix style of shading, usually called screentone or halftone, used because it's a mo...

WiP evolution

The cough is going/gone now.

I made a nice softer brush I can sculpt with. The intent of this character is for a very 80s/90s OVA setting without leaning on a stereotypical style too much, and I really want that mullet floof. I'll see how w...

Sick, small post

Immediately after last post I got sick and while way better now I'm alternating between comfortable and less. Practice was done, mainly in the sketching department with material I can't or am unwilling to share for privacy/permission reasons, and ...

Study Study Study

It's pretty boring, but it's so necessary. This is a mix of loose/precise reference/imagination. If anyone correctly guesses what's up with bottom left then holy shit.

Wips

Still putting stuff together in my mind. Keeping myself open to things.

Nothing but WiPs

I got nothing. I can share the current frame for Asuka:

And I can share some floof mullet 80s OVA tomboy idea I'm getting:

Last variants

Once again, I'm out of material. I've finished my rewatch of Korra and have been touching the SF Alpha games which are tickling some fanart urges but those would be better suited to doing some OC work. Internet becoming hostile to art leading to s...

Another gag

I got very spooked by a lot of the PP/card rule stuff the past few weeks. I was never committed to full H content anyway and in the future I'll diverge away form it, but I'd like to be able to do it and not get ramrodded. I might have to consider ...

Subscription billing change.

This won't effect any of you currently subbed, but I've changed how subscriptions work. If you were to sign up from now on you'll renew a full month from the date you signed up onat signup date. Current subs will continue to pay on the 1st of the ...

Kaede + Shizuka Shirt gag

There might be a bit of artstyle shift happening due to the pseudo-break and the offscreen practicing. I had also spent days of the past week adding different shading and not really liking anything so that might be a part of my monochrome style no...

Next week probably

I'm in. I could rush it but I won't.

No post this week, reason

I have nothing to show this week, and I had a plan to share some of the wips just to indicate that I am in fact working again. 

This might be TMI but last month we received news that a couple of family members and friends got cancer. On...

Asuka keyframes pt 3

I only have this one extra frame, here's all so far.

We'll see if I can produce anything else this month. I know making a poll with "Do whatever" ...

Poll - just a feeler

This is multiple choice so read all 6 and go with whichever you feel.

Fanart includes stuff like that Saya and the Asuka frames.
Patreon OC's includes Kaede and Shizuka and the ones from that (maybe-not-a-)succubus project.
Kiki is the...
