sex pollen is an integral part of the fanfiction ecosystem but i just don't think poison ivy would make anything that encourages procreation of even more humans. unless she figures out how to make the sex pollen same-sex specific or fertility-negating she's not making it at all. #philosophical

batman: throw your homosexual phytoaphrodisiac pollen wherever you like, pamela. it won't get past my rebreather. i've made sure of it. i learned my lesson the last time.

fujo poison ivy: how was it...

Calling something "breakfastless behavior" just the modern day "you forget yourself"

idk if you've seen the DLSS5 memes but i think they're great, we're so back

[were--ralph]

for context, Nvidia or somebody showed off "photo realistic lighting" with DLSS5 and its just yassifying game characters with ai

so naturally

hello everyone it's Coupé time

I wanted to practice drawing clothes and luckily for me Coupé can pull off anything so she became my model :] Now does anyone want to help me with figuring out how other characters would dress up Robert, because I wanted to do some simpler ones with him and I'm indecisive with what would fit

Scars inspired by the amazing @aa-archer42 (hope you don't mind the tag king) I had a version without them but decided I love scars too much to leave them out + I don't want to add so many versions in one post DJKANW

yapping, additional sketch and refs below the cut!

Some sketches I was trying to do as more loose and quick, both for clothing and trying to give the poses more of a flow :3

I was testing a few different approaches to rendering since I still don't have a go-to process figured out; it's still very hit or miss, but I think I'm starting to get a little more comfortable with rendering!! I still struggle with drawing femme people though, gotta draw more of the girlies to improve on that

On the first pic the top left drawing started with doing most of the blocking out with the lasso fill tool and then switching to brushes, I was trying to use more interesting colors for shading there!

The drawing on the right and the one from the second pic were done in similar ways (sketch with base colors under it and then rendering on top), but the former had the clothes in grayscale at first and then gradient map and touch ups put over them, while the latter was in color from the start

I struggled a bunch with trying to get at least a similar effect with the texture and detailing on the right one without going insane and spending hours more over it, but hopefully it looks alright! It was my favorite outfit for Coop that I had saved, I think it suits her well, so I wanted to do it justice :]

The art with references I used!
