Added 2021-03-30 15:13:12 +0000 UTCIts been a while, but as I said in my previous update post a few months ago I dont like making posts about nothing, so I wanted to wait until I actually had something done instead. I was really hoping to finish this before the end of the month just so I wouldnt go the whole of march without posting anything, and fortunately I managed to, just in time.
Before I get to the pic, and since I was already getting messages, I just wanna say everything is fine and the reason for the lack of posts is pretty much due to mental blocks only (something Ive also talked about before). Perfectionism, procrastination and all those great things that destroy our productivity because we are so scared of failing that we dont even start, and getting past that initial hurdle is incredibly hard, especially the longer it has been since the last drawing.
But anyway, more of my character, and actually her first drawing of 2021 which seems very strange because Ive done so little since the previous one (Caress). Im probably gonna be drawing a whole bunch of her this year because I just feel like it and there are so many things I havent done yet, especially when it comes to outfits... Which is ironic because I just drew her naked again, lol.
As far as clothing goes, for this one I was tempted to add those leg/arm warmers Ive done a few times before but in the end I thought it looked perfect as a full nude. It already has that cuteness and innocence I love so there was no need to cover anything.
The other thing was that its been a really long time since Ive done a solo full body of her, like... since 2019 (Ragequit) so I really felt like doing one. It works out great composition wise since it has the wallpaper format and she fills most of the screen which is always nice.
For stuff like background/lighting/colors I also wanted to do something a bit different from her usual stuff, although its actually not what I originally intended. I was going for a night time pic, similar to "Nocturnal", with a mix of green lights, blue shadows and her pink hair and red lips/nails contrasting with it... So it would have a kind of retro 80s vibe? (think neon dystopian future) I think it would look awesome but I couldnt get the look I wanted, so I decided to save it for some other time when I can actually pull it off.
Instead I went for a safer approach with my usual sunrise/sunset theme which always looks so warm and has this almost magical glow. I think it really complements the scene even if the colors arent as catchy as the original idea would have been.
I was also wondering if I made her a bit too busty, and I feel like I keep making her bigger over time lol, but actually here I have the excuse of her breasts being pushed in so that explains the illusion of added volume. The body type she has had since "Date" is 100% accurate so I have no plans to change that for now.
I think thats all I wanted to talk about. Im already working on a few more so you definitely wont have to wait another month for a new pic (Id probably just pause the patreon again if that were the case since I always end up feeling terrible about it).
So yeah, I think she will definitely be the main attraction this year, with a few other characters thrown in here and there. Hopefully people wont get bored of seeing her.

"Im probably gonna be drawing a whole bunch of her this year" nothing can make me more happy to read ! :D I love so much your cutie Sora, it's always a pleasure to see you drawing her (also because you always give her something "new"....either be angle, clothes, poses, design etc...). And again, love this picture a lot ! The pose/her expression are amazing, a wonderful mix of cuteness and sexyness as usual <3 Really loe the light and cozy atmosphere :3 Splendid work Sora ! Moaaaaaar of your cutie yes ! :D

2021-04-12 19:14:58 +0000 UTCI love the 80s both in aesthetics and music and all that (maybe because thats the decade I was born in), so I would definitely love to do that kind of thing with my art here and there, its just that well, Ive never really done it before and its VERY different from what I usually do in both looks and feel, so its something I have to be very careful with if I want it to be as good as my usual stuff Id love to do art of futuristic dystopian cities for example, but I have zero experience with that kind of stuff and especially when it comes to outdoors scenes, I tend to focus more on nature so when it comes to forests and the like I can do a pretty good job, but a cityscape? To make it believable you need a lot of detail everywhere and yeah, I have neither the skill nor the patience to do it, lol Id have to find some kind of "shortcut" through implied detail rather than individually drawing a bunch of things which would take ages Its something Ill have to do some research on and look at how other artists approach it, before I even attempt it... But one day who knows?

2021-04-01 05:43:23 +0000 UTCGood to see you back drawing again and with quite the art, its so good. The first thing I noticed is the expression and body language because wow, she is nude yet she looks very cute and innocent. The way she is looking to the side with a pose like this is just cute... Another thing is just like you said, her breasts have an illusion of being bigger but I cant complain, with her being on the back + the breasts being squished with her arms defo does it + I like all boobs so even if they were thats ok. I also really like the whole pose, its so nice, with her arms like that and her legs up (nice way of covering bottom nudity too, well done, I like it) just adds to this whole vibe and feel of your char. Its a very womanly/feminine pose and a cute one. Also, love the nails and colour, its always so nice and since its full body theres more and I love it. Really liking the lighting too, with the BG I noticed the droplets of water on the glass so right after rain... along with the sunset it really adds to this feel. Even irl sunset after a rain tends to look... different in a very nice and sometimes magical way. Oh and I like how you decided to keep the feathers for now, this time around it really adds to her innocent feel. I think warmers would be a good addition here but even without them she looks good here so this works really well too, no complaints. What a way to return after this break, and looking forward to more. Your char being one my of favs means that more of her is always welcome and I dont think people will mind more anyway. Also, with or without clothes, doesnt matter both are good but true that you havent done too many clothing choices with her thus far and seeing her in a nice dress would be amazing or something like that. But I can imagine its hard to not draw her naked lol so clothes or no clothes, it will be nice. Yay finally it let me post my comment after 12hours almost...
2021-03-31 19:58:24 +0000 UTCGreat to see you back in action! And what a return this is! Well-worth the wait. She is breathtaking! :D This has to be another one of my top favourites of yours. It's such a treat following your creative exploration with each iteration of your OC. The rainy glass window gives me "Reflection" vibes (and I love that piece!), with warmer tones. I love how the environment creates a cozy atmosphere - she's comfortably sheltered away from the elements, while lit warmly by the sun. As always, props to the amazing breasts! The accurate physics and cute pose definitely rounds and pushes them out more, and yet without completely taking attention away from her expression, her hair flowing behind her, and the rest of her body. Which is to say: great use of colour to guide the eye to the various details. I always enjoy the warm "low sun angle" lighting you do, but I must say you've peaked my interest mentioning your attempt at the more "nighttime neon" approach. Up to your discretion of course, but I'd love to see it materialize in a future piece, especially if you elect to go with that "classic 80s neon" pinks and violets, next to the cool blues like seen in "Noctural". I think there can be something dark yet sensual about the contrast between nighttime scenery and vibrant neon lighting, in terms of atmosphere and how it could illuminate the character. Looking forward to more of your OC!

2021-03-30 22:43:45 +0000 UTCWhen you make a return with something so beautiful, it makes all the waiting worth it. You gave her such a pleasant body language. Her pose is very feminine, but her facial expression is stoic yet alluring. It looks really well. Especially in case of your character. When it comes to the clothing, I think both warmers and fully naked versions would look good so there isn't really a bad choice here. Her breasts looks amazing, there was never any doubt about that of course, especially in this particular position (lying on back). In this position will look biggerm but if they actually are...well you won't hear me complaining about it of course :] This is an amazing art and a great way to return after a break. I think I can speak for most people here that nobody would mind seeing more of her in the future. on the contrary, I am looking forward to seeing more of her myself. :]

2021-03-30 17:58:42 +0000 UTCI like to do everything well if possible, lol I always feel like its a missed opportunity if I dont... Many artists focus only on their fetish and then rush everything else, and its always obvious which thing they are into... but I like mine to be balanced in a way that aside from the breasts/areolae (which are the most obvious thing) you could point at pretty much anything as something I like, from hands and nails, to shoulders and collar bone, to hips, thighs, legs and feet (which is actually not far from the truth, lol I like pretty much everything about the female body), everything has a beauty to it, just has to be done right

2021-03-30 16:59:05 +0000 UTCThere she is. Absolutely gorgeous! I love her pose. The "arms squeeze" is perfect for showing off her body in a cute and sexy way. The lighting is perfect. And I know I've said this before but you did just an absolutely amazing job on her feet. I'm not a "feet guy" either which I said last time ai pointed it out. I feel like it's just something I'm noticing you do really well! It's good to see you posting again :)

2021-03-30 15:37:00 +0000 UTCIt’s nice to see you back and creating art again. She’s gorgeous as always. Keep up the good work!
2021-03-30 15:33:08 +0000 UTCI hope so lol I noticed recently that I really like it when an artist has a cute OC and they keep drawing them in different poses, angles, clothes, etc, so I wanna do the same with mine (so far Im mostly missing the clothes part... I can never resist drawing her naked)
