Akiaji Margo (comm_oc)

Hello! I’ve completed the first commission of the month! She is an original character who is laid-back and has an older-sister vibe, enjoying retro games! If I remember correctly, I received this reservation quite a while ago, so I’m glad it was finished just in time for the season that perfectly matches her outfit! Haha. This time, I did my best to add more detail, such as the folds in her clothing and her hair. The summer beach setting has a great environment to portray the character, wi...

Hello!

Hello! I've had a good rest, and starting tomorrow, I’ll officially begin working on commissions again! During my break, I spent time on personal studies and worked on my doujinshi sketches. I've made it up to 29 pages so far—haha. There are still a few rough areas to polish after finishing the sketches, but if I keep going a bit more, I think I can finally move past the sketching phase. As I’ve been progressing gradually over several months, I’ve noticed that the style of my sketches ...

May commission work

Hello! May is finally coming to an end, and June is just around the corner. For me, May was a challenging month, but also a time to solidify the thoughts and reflections I had from April. To be honest, I barely had time to focus on my studies due to the heavy workload from commissions. Still, I did my best to organize my thoughts whenever I could. That said, studying and working involve different kinds of reflection and depth, so I often feel a bit frustrated. I know I need to work harder and ...

Mirko_dakimakura

Hello! I’ve finally completed my last commission! This time, it was a dakimakura (character body pillow) illustration. It was something unfamiliar to me, so as a first-time challenge, I had to do a lot of reference gathering. Rather than focusing on experimenting with angles like I usually do, I spent more time thinking about how to effectively portray the full body. Thankfully, the final result turned out stable and satisfying. However, the client requested partial privacy, so unfortunately...

Robin x Nami x Cayden Reese (comm_oc)

Hello! I’ve finally completed my third commission! This time, the featured characters are Robin and Nami from One Piece, along with the client’s original character! It’s actually my second time properly drawing One Piece characters, and I’m happy I got to draw them again! Haha. The variety of outfits they wore and the backgrounds—like the inside of the pirate ship (an aquarium, a library, and their personal bedrooms)—combined with the client’s original character, made for a fresh...

Mirko

Hello! I’ve finally completed my second commission! This time, it was a combination of a C-17 aircraft and Mirko! Since it was my first time drawing a plane, I made up my mind to try a variety of sketches. Thankfully, the client responded positively to them, so the final result ended up including one more piece than originally planned—haha. Honestly, considering this month’s schedule, things are a bit tight, but one of the sketches had a rather experimental angle that I really wanted to...

Makoto Fujimori (comm_oc)

Hello! I've successfully completed my first commission for May! This character was actually one I worked on in a previous commission, so I was really happy to draw her again! Haha. Compared to before, I've been able to reduce the emotional ups and downs and feel less anxious, so I approached the sketching process more systematically—gathering reference materials for angles and poses, and trying out a wider variety of drafts. Personally, I still feel a lingering sense of spring, so just like ...

Hello!

Hello! I spent the past week resting, studying, and working on my doujinshi. Starting tomorrow, I'll begin sketching for commissions. This month, I have one SFW and three NSFW commissions, for a total of four slots. I’ll do my best to build on the things I realized last month and continue improving. Thank you again for your support this month!

April commission artwork

Hello! April is already coming to an end, and May is just around the corner. Since the beginning of the year, my desire to grow has only gotten stronger, and as I’ve tried more and more new things, I feel like I’ve been running even more busily than I did last year. As I constantly encounter unfamiliar challenges, there have been many moments of mental friction that left me tired or even a bit depressed. But each time, I reminded myself why I want to learn and why I choose to draw—and tha...

Nullira (comm_OC)

Hello! The final commission for this month has been completed! Thankfully, despite my concerns, I managed to finish it within the month! Haha. This piece features the client’s mature original character. They’ve shared the character's background and ideas with me consistently over time, so the character left a strong impression. I’m really happy to finally complete it—haha. Since the background had to include a club, it naturally became a night scene. Because of that, I spent a lot of ...

Nicole/Claire/Leila (comm_oc)

Hello! I’ve completed my third illustration! There were quite a few characters this time, so I ended up spending a lot of time on the sketch and line art, haha. I put a lot of thought into the direction and layout to make sure the story in the illustration comes through clearly. Now that it’s done, I do feel a sense of accomplishment. However, the fourth commission is still waiting, and the part I was worried about is slowly becoming reality… I’m not sure if I’ll be able to finish ev...

Kafka x Fu Xuan (comm)

Hello! My second commission has just been completed! For this artwork, I got to draw Kafka and Fu Xuan from Honkai: Star Rail! They're characters from a game I really enjoy, and I’ve always wanted to draw them, so I’m really happy to have done so! While there hasn’t been much progress since I drew Mirko, I think I’ve started to pay more attention to color theory. I feel like I should apply the theories I’ve learned while drawing more instinctively, but it’s a bit disappointing that ...

Mirko (comm)

Hello! I’ve just completed my first commission for April! For this piece, I focused a lot on making sure the colors of the background and character blended harmoniously together. Although it took longer than usual for a single character, I feel like I gained some insight into what I should focus on when creating SFW illustrations. While NSFW art tends to emphasize facial expressions and texture details, I think SFW pieces should be more about color balance and creating the right atmosphere. ...

Hello!

Hello! I’ve just been working on sketches for my doujinshi, and starting tomorrow, I’ll begin my April commissions! Once again, while working on this doujinshi, I learned a lot of new things. It’s not quite an experience that has built my confidence yet, but as I research more references, I’m starting to get a faint sense of “This is how it should be done”—a certain flow and understanding are beginning to form. Even when I realize things, applying them well still takes a long tim...

Burning

Hello! I took enough rest and worked on a personal piece! It's a character called Burning from MHA! Luckily, I stopped at the sketch phase this time! Haha. I wanted to refine her style again after a long time, so I decided to draw her! I’d love to draw more poses, but I had to stop here to start working on other plans. I've been working at a pace where I draw personal works after commissions for almost two years, but now that I’m drawing at a different pace, I think I need some time to adj...

Bakugo Mitsuki

Hello! I've completed my last commission for this month! I thought there were two full-body characters, but I was mistaken. Haha The characters in this work are the same as last month, Bakugo's mom and Deku, in an intense scene. I've drawn genitals frequently, but I think this is my first time properly depicting the anus. Haha I tried to focus on the texture of her buttocks and genital expression to make them visible, but I'm not sure if I did it well. Hahaha The remaining time will be spent ...

Aster x Loona x Roxanne

Hello! The third commission is complete! This time, the commission features Loona, Roxanne, and the client’s original character! The magic circle on the floor gives the impression that the three characters are being summoned, and I wanted it to feel like a summoning magic circle from hell. Personally, there are a lot of bold colors in this artwork, and I think I worked hard to maintain balance. Haha. I’m also slowly learning about textures, and I always feel a bit disappointed that I can...

Mamako

Hello! The second commission is complete! The character in this piece is Mamako! This artwork was a particularly difficult challenge for me, so I put even more effort into it. I can’t believe a whole week has passed—haha. Her dress was especially challenging to draw. When sketching, I considered making it a full-body illustration, but after completing the piece, I realized that if I had done four full-body images, it would have taken even more time—haha. I also worked hard on the backgro...

Midnight x MT. Lady

Hello! I’ve completed the first commission of this month! The characters are Midnight and MT. Lady from MHA! They are quite attractive characters that many people enjoy. Haha, I’m really glad I got to draw them! I can definitely feel that I’ve improved in terms of not getting lost during the coloring stage. However, as I’ve been reflecting on some recent concerns, I find myself frequently revising backgrounds or noticing discrepancies in the character designs between line art and final...

Hello!

Hello! I'm reaching out because I'll be starting commissions tomorrow! As for what I've been up to, I've been fully immersed in working on a doujinshi. I initially thought that if I could speed through the sketching process, I might have some time to work on personal projects—but that was wishful thinking. Haha. In particular, I realized just how much I lack in areas like composition, panel distribution, and various poses. I kept drawing and reworking things while constantly reflecting on t...

February commission/personal work

Hello! February is already coming to an end! I can feel the cold gradually fading and the days getting longer. I think it was around this time when I first started taking commissions. Back then, I only intended to enjoy drawing as a hobby, so I remember feeling nothing but vague fear. Haha. The reason I'm reflecting on the past now is that I've never really wished for time to slow down in my life. At the very least, I've come to believe in myself, and that alone makes me happy. It would have ...

Bakugo Mitsuki

Hello! The fifth commission has been completed! This piece turned out to be a really intense one! Haha. The character featured in this illustration is Bakugo’s mother from My Hero Academia. Since there isn’t much time left this month, I couldn’t take on too many commissions, but I did my best with the ones I worked on. Following the previous commission, I realized something important while working on this one—I finally solidified the direction of my coloring, which I had been strugglin...

Hello!

Hello! I’ve completed my fourth commission! Unfortunately, due to the client’s request, the final artwork will remain private, so I won’t be able to upload it… The character was an original female character with a devilish appearance yet captivating charm. She wore a bunny girl outfit without piercings or hair accessories, and the composition focused on a low-angle shot emphasizing her lower body. I put a lot of effort into improving my weaker areas, such as texture rendering, hair, fa...

Mirko x Bakugo

Hello! I have completed my third commission! It’s a combination of Mirko and Bakugo! I found their pairing refreshing, so I had drawn them as a personal piece before. It seems like the client had a similar idea as me, haha. I had a great time working on this and did my best! I tend to admire many different art styles, which sometimes makes my coloring process a bit chaotic. I have a bad habit of referencing too many styles at once, making it hard to stay on track. To fix this, I’ve starte...

Athens (OC)

Hello! I’ve completed my second commission! This commission features a beautiful original character (he’s a guy!). The scene with the character floating on water was unfamiliar to me, but it provided a challenging motivation. I’ve finished it, but natural elements are still quite difficult for me, haha. I’ll pay more attention to them next time! Yesterday was Valentine’s Day, but lately I’ve been balancing commissions and personal work, so I wasn’t able to draw. I’ll definitely...

Mirko

Hello! My first commission of the month is complete! Since this is a commercial commission, I had to add a watermark—sorry about that! As I reflected last month, I’ve been paying more attention to facial expressions. My sense of three-dimensionality is still lacking, but I did my best to properly depict her muscles. My approach keeps evolving, but I hope that one day, I’ll be able to fully express a character’s charm. Until then, I’ll keep drawing steadily. Haha. I’ll take just on...

Complex _Ryukyu

Hello! I’ve finally finished my personal artwork! Since it’s a style I’ve never tried before, it turned out a bit rough, but I did my best to work on it! Haha. I added a lot of my own imagination to the character Ryukyu from MHA. She originally has dragon abilities, but I wanted to tell a story where, due to the bullying she faced when she was younger, she perceives herself differently. Haha. It might be a bit forced, but I came up with a fun story in my own way. Still, I hope that based...

January Commission

Hello! This month has come to an end safely! I originally planned to complete as many personal works as possible during my free time this month, but I ended up being so busy both inside and outside that it was impossible, haha. If I could stop time, I would love to just draw everything I want, haha. Still, while working on commissions this month, I was able to identify noticeable issues in my artwork and discover effective study methods, so I feel quite satisfied. I don’t expect immediate im...

Sabrina(OC)

Hello! I’ve completed my fourth and final commission! This time, the illustration features a character posing alone on the beach. Now that I think about it, it’s been a while since I last drew a beach background, haha. I kept working on it, hoping the character and background would blend well together. I finished the artwork yesterday, so I plan to take a break today! Now I finally have time to complete my personal project! Haha. Since I’ve put it off for quite a while, I’m determined ...

Villain x Hero

Hello! The third commission has been completed! For this commission, I transformed the original vertical comic format into a horizontal one! I thought it was a rare opportunity to draw two characters with significant size differences. While this might be a matter of personal preference, I found it to be a very rewarding experience! I paid particular attention to depicting the muscles of the muscular character. Haha. Although I usually don’t highlight my shortcomings, I strongly felt that my ...
