Launch as a cat girl.

I absolutely adore Launch, both bluenette and blonde. She is a fun character overall. 💙

I am really happy with how this piece turned out! I am actually noticing that the more depressed I am, the better my work. Funny how that works out.

So this is another of those TikTok trends where you build an anime girlfriend, and this build is based off of @/frankie_funko's build.

She is supposed to have Marin Kitagawa's face, Tsunade's body, Noelle Silva's hair, Zero Twoo's voice, and Kiyoko Shimizu's personality. I absolutely adore how she came out.

I think she needs a name if there are any suggestions. Also, likes, favorites, shares, and comments are very much appreciated. 🩵

An Ipad piece. Princess Peach is flaunting her beauty. <3

Random color palette challenge! This is Envy. Punishment in hell: eyes sewn shut with wire. I'm really happy with how she turned out.

[demonoftheshadow]

I generated a random color palette that was all green... It was fun placing the colors, but it was one of those things I had to look away from after a while. This queen gave very Toxic personified vibes or like Acid personified. I actually really adore her. 🩵

This is the SFW Valentine;s Day piece. The 14th was a bit of a busy day so I didn’t have a chance to post my Valentine’s pieces everywhere. Better late than never though.

Last July's Pinup was Hizashi Yamada a.k.a. Present Mic. He looks a little weird and was hard to get right, but overall it's alright. Don't love don't hate.

Leah Clearwater is my favorite female from Twilight. She's also one of my favorite characters to draw. I also wanted to time myself so I decided to do a redraw of an 8th grade drawing

This is a birthday inspired OC I had done using a reel on Instagram last August. I still don't have a name for her either, but I really like how she overall came out.

I have a backlog of art pieces that I really should show here. So 2023. New year, New goals? "^.^ Point is I am trying to be better about using my socials. So I will give some of the last pieces from last year and the new ones of this year. This was the result of an Instagram reel I had done. She still doesn't have a name, but I really liked her so I plan to at least keep her and find a use for her. <3

The June PIN-UP is of Kurenai Sensei. And I am really happy with how she came out. This is probably my best one so far.

I haven’t had many issues or concerns with this outside of a couple places, but I do feel I should preface this going forward. Not everything I draw is pinup though a good majority of it is. As well as, not all of my pinup is super explicit as the case may seem for something such as nip slips or full boobage. I understand that isn’t for everyone and that is why I do try to make sure there’s some variety in my character work.

I enjoy drawing pinup whether it’s the teasing visual appeal or even the occasional sexier appeal. I like generally just like to draw. I do try to keep an open mind and I do try to make sure I have more innocent works as well, but overall I like to draw for me first and foremost and to put smiles on people's faces. So if there are suggestions I am very open to hearing them. I don’t want anyone to feel an obligation or to feel like I’m not listening to concerns or distastes. I appreciate all the feedback I get whether it is negative or positive and I try to respond and have discussions to clear any air that needs it. Thank you and I hope you join me and are able to smile even if for a moment. <3

I didn’t realize I hadn’t posted May’s pinup outside of my Instagram, but here it is!

The character is Skinn Bolic also known as Wrathra the Noah of wrath in D Gray-Man. I have been having a lot of fun drawing these calendar spreads and I've been having fun drawing guys which is new. I still prefer drawing women, but with more practice I have been having more fun with drawing men. Especially in the pinup designs.

April's calendar spread is finally finished! Now, when I originally started this project I only wanted to draw women for this round of pinups. However, there wasn't a female character with an April birthday who peeked my interest and the one who did interest me as an April baby is well Gabi and for obvious reasons (see January, February and March) wasn't going to happen this time. That is why this month we have the half demon Inuyasha as the model. 🥰 Now Koga is my all time favorite, but alas he is not an April baby. And he likely won't get drawn because I do want to try and avoid repeat shows if possible for this project, but if it interests me it interests me. Anyway! I am very proud of how he came out and actually enjoyed this piece.

March 2022 calendar pinup. Charlotte Brulee from One Piece. So I was scrolling through a list of characters with birthdays in March. Not sure what caught my eye, but here we are. I also want to mention I haven't seen all of One Piece and I haven't seen it in a very long time so finding her and drawing her was solely based on a desire to draw her after seeing her. I had no clue who this was before looking up characters. 😅 Honestly, I really like how she came out. Her body type, hair and facial features are very different from what I'm used to so I tried to keep that uniqueness and silhouette while still keeping my style recognizable. I hope you enjoy her!💙

So for February we had Ymir from Attack on Titan. I just got my girlfriend to watch it with me and I forgot how much I love Ymir among other characters. I also attempted a different way of shading using the technique I had been using, but creating an initial shadow to give me a guide for light and dark and also use a single color over everything (except the background because I didn't think about it) similar to @/lavendertowne's work. The lighting/shading overall came out super stellar. 💙

[demonoftheshadow]

An attempt at something I had wanted to try a couple years ago. I wanted to create those "Calendar" pinup images similar to those fireman/police calendars. To do this I decided to find characters with birthdays in those months. So the lucky one for January is the amazing and feisty Yoruichi Shihoin from Bleach.
