Was a bit undecided on whether to post this or Friedrich today since I finished both one after another, but since Friedrich is another horizontal 16:9 pic I thought Id post this instead for the sake of variety, and now you already know whats coming next.
Anyway, yep, I guess I lied... There will be more of Kei after all, starting with this one.
This is an idea we had discussed long ago so it was just a matter of picking up where we left off. Its been a few days since Ive finished it and it might just be my favorite of hers yet, for a bunch of different reasons. First just how good it turned out technically speaking, which I guess is expected considering the gap from the last one (its been about 9 months). But then just the overall feel of it, how soft everything looks and how fitting it is for the character.
Since she was going to be wearing a yukata from the start I wanted a japanese themed background to go with it, and this just looked so good from the from the start, it was just a matter of refining it throughout the process.
I knew I wanted to have a good amount of blue here and even when picking the color for the yukata it was obvious which color to pick which is rare since most of the time there are a few equally good options and I get very undecided.
Anyway as for her, as you can see we tried a new hairstyle once again, but I think this one is here to stay because I love it, so expect to see more of it, at least for more casual or cute scenes.
Then of course I cant avoid mentioning the obvious... These have to be some of the best boobs Ive ever drawn, lol. Its definitely one of her main features and I wanted to take the chance to play around with making them as soft and squishy as I could (which is what makes drawing large ones so much fun). I was a bit worried I went overboard on the size at some point but eh, we could just attribute it to her gaining some weight since its something that happens in real life as well, so nothing weird about varying breast size here and there.
The shading/lighting helps a lot here of course, and I always love doing those targeted highlights whenever possible since they make things pop out so much. I even threw in some dappled lighting as well which would make sense if she is standing under some sakura trees.
Lastly, theres the butterfly which as you can see from the steps was a last minute addition. I was something that came up in conversation before but I thought was meant for a future idea, until I realized how well her left hand was positioned to have one resting on it. Im a bit worried about overusing butterflies now but they are such a good way of adding life and color to scenes, so expect to see more of them.
Anyway thats it, I know Kei is a favorite of a bunch of people so Im sure theyll be happy to see her return (as was I).
