2 amazing women more for Women’s day! I have loved both of these women ever since that day in 90′s when I saw them for the first time. They both are very special to me in a way.

Also, fun fact what I noticed only NOW when I was drawing Nei’sha. Yeah, her name! There’s NEI in her name! I had forgot her name completely when I came with my up with my username, Nei-Ning.

My name comes from one man which has two names. Gan Nei or Kan Nei in Japanese and Gan Ning in English. So I was super happily surprised about HER name! Plus I remember how I ALWAYS was so drawn to her! I sat on the floor, just staring at her. I loved and adored her so much as a little girl and still do as an adult woman. Plus she’s super beautiful!

And then Mezcaal. Damn, she’s also a woman who I adore and admire. Loving and caring, but also kicks ass. You don’t mess with her. I’m sure she gives fair warnings before she steps in and kicks you out (like she did with the men who fought in her bar). On top of it, she’s Raphael’s wife and I could NEVER ask a better wife for him! They are clearly very much in love and their relationship works so well too :) A life goal to myself as well (whenever I end up in a relationship / marriage).

Get to know you part IV- 10 Characters

I was tagged by @niuniente​! Thank you so much! :D I will post my characters in random order! Also trying to post characters what I don’t show too much / almost at all on my dash.

Rules: Name 10 characters from 10 different things, then, tag 10 people.

Sofia from Battle Arena Toshinden 1 game. I rarely find any female characters who I actually like, but Sofia instantly was one of them! Main reasons why I like her, still, is that she’s pretty and dressed up sexy. Plus she’s more than capable of beating the shit out of anyone. I like tough women who are also dressed up sexy! Not overly sexy, but still.

Next is Zhurong from Dynasty Warriors game series. I really love her because she, too, is a tough woman who is not backing away from a fight. She loves peaceful life in the middle of the nature and wants that she and her people would be left alone to live in peace. However, if situation asks it, she stands up and protects her people, her land and supports her husbands instantly, showing great gentleness and love towards him - always - no matter how many times the poor husband (Meng Huo) would screw up. That is beautiful unconditional love <3 And just look at her! How beautiful is she! :D

Next is Rachel from Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate / Last Round / Ninja Gaiden. She too is pretty and sexy, (I love her outfit!) and a fighter. I haven’t played Ninja Gaiden so I don’t fully know her since I’m familiar with her only in DAO, but even in it she knows how to punch - hard :D I think I should get a NG game someday in the future to get to know her better.

Next character I love a lot! Mezcaal from old TMNT comics (TMNT Adventures). She always have been dear to me. She, too, knows how to fight, she’s firm but also loving (and sarcastic at times :’D). Especially towards old Raphael. After all she is his wife! <3 And what I always have liked about her is her spiritual side! Shame we don’t see it so much in the comics. Only in this moment (pic from Google).

Rei from Breath of Fire 3! I always have liked him SO MUCH! He’s so relaxed and easy going most of the times, but get things done when they get tough. He’s also great supporter and shows skills of being a great leader too! He went through a hard childhood as being an orphan and poor (villagers hating him), having to take care of Teepo and Ryu as well. As someone who grew up as a poor too (not as poor as them, but still) I know the feeling of worry about having food.

Gruffi Gummi from Disney’s Adventures of Gummi Bears! I mean I haven’t seen this TV series since my childhood (30 years!) (I’ve been around 4 at max when it aired in Finland) and I STILL remember Gruffi! He was my favorite instantly! The grumpiest of them all! :’D And he still has a place in my heart! It seems I always have been drawn to male characters with a temper, aha! :D

I simply HAVE TO name William from Nioh! I don’t know the character so well yet, BUT I love him already! I love his dirty strong face and long blond hair! His voice is also just... Ah! <3 He also seems a bit grumpy. Like in short animations. He wouldn’t want to be in meetings and would just want to get hell away from there.

I ALMOST FORGOT! KRULOS! From Dino Riders! I always have liked him too! I don’t know why, but I have and still do! Now I think it’s because he’s some sort of toad / frog... I think? And seriously, back in the days villains wore Pink/Purple outfits! :D

I have to say (the BEST) Shredder from 87′s TMNT show. He is so, um... “poor” in a way :’D He tries so hard, always so sure his plan will work, but he always fails - and yet he still, NEVER, gives up! That’s the spirit! :D <3 (even that he has his moments of despair etc. like here, but he mourns and gets back up on his feet!)

And lastly, Ashitaka from Princess Mononoke. I still don’t know why I’m so drawn to him, but I am! I really, really like him! I guess it’s his calmness and determination - and strength (physical and mental). I should watch Mononoke again since it’s been years when I saw it last time.

Since my laptop is acting weird (keeps freezing all of the sudden and I can’t recover it in any other way than to force my laptop to shut down by pressing the power button, then restarting it again, I will not tag anyone. I need to get this posted as soon as possible since I’m NOT doing this again if my laptop freezes!

Feel free to tag me as your tagger if you do this!

I so damn much love old future Raphael and Mez as well as Nei and Raphael <3 I also noticed while doing this that Nei and Mez would be great friends! They would get along so well and while Mez is more easy of going to fight by FR's side, Nei would go fight only if she needs to defense Raphael's life. Mez can kill without reason but Nei needs a reason to kill. I think so far this is the biggest difference between them. But ihihihi ~ I'm gonna draw more of these couples spending time together etc. <3

Only a part of my arts (both a bit more serious and goofing around) from last nights streaming which lasted almost 11 hours, ahaha :’D

1. Was asked / wished by @dashtumbles <3 2. Demonstration how fast and easy I draw 2003 Mikey instead of 2012 Mikey. 3. Young Mezcaal from my dream (she had VERY long and silky blond hair) 4. - 6. Were wished / suggested by @foziz105akanightshade <3

I want to give special thanks to MikeysBabey and Foziz since you guys kept me company for hours all the way to 6am and GOD ALL THAT DIRTY (and funny) TALKING WHAT WE HAD! Mostly thanks to lil perv Foziz, ahahah :D I’m so looking forward to our next stream session xD

And thanks to our naughty talks, I drew naughty arts so I will post them next!

Almost 5 hours of work and this is result! Couldn't be happier, yay! Freaking best background EVER what I have done too! >u< Though I couldn't get his groin area look right / good so I cropped it out, ahaha :'D Also this WAS supposed to be NSFW day art but how could I have draw him a boner or something when he's such a cutie already? Boner would had ruin this art. Also his lower body area is darker since I wanted to make it look like if he's leaning backward with his butt. I love to think Mezcaal and Raphael have decide to go out (perhaps to celebrate anniversary day or something <3) and Mez wants to memorize it by taking a photo of her husband (who also has bought new leather jacket to himself ~ and perhaps a dress to Mez ^//u//^ )

While I was yesterday doing some shopping, suddenly old future Raphael came to me and started to dance on his own. It was totally surprising but yet he moved so smoothly so I thought he must have either take dance lessons or practice secretly so that he and Mez could do little private dancing every now and then just to enjoy time together <3 (Like in anniversary days!) But you can't believe how much fun I had while making this since Mez and Raph both were there to say what to do, how to do, how to color and which colors etc. and they even end up having little playful arguments :’D I think best part was when I was drawing pants to Raphael and he said; "I don't want pants." And Mezcaal just blurted out to me, while keeping her hands crossed on her chest; "Make him wear them. I don't want him to dance all around with naked ass." She really didn't give any room to protest or anything which made Raphael pout. Then another thing was Raphael's hat. Mez wasn't all too happy about him wearing it but Raph held very tightly on his hat, repeating; "Nope!" :'D I just adore them and think they are perfect couple and THEY KNOW IT!
