DISTRESSED DAMSELS: WORK STAGES on another CONVENTIONLESS CON SKETCH featuring EMPOWERED & MINI-MAIDMAN(?)!
Added 2024-09-30 13:00:23 +0000 UTCWellp, one of my remaining art requests from the $20 tier featured the quite frankly unreasonable suggestion of "Empowered's Maidman rescuing the girls (presumably Emp & Ninjette) from the Pint-Size(d) NInja Platoon," who have menaced Rose & Lily on many previous occasions. In fact, I already did a similar request earlier this summer with Emp laid low by the Platoon:
Anyhoo, I used the suggestion as the basis for another Con Sketch-style illo, with the main damsel pose derived from a recent Empowered rough sketch set:
That was too good a pose not to reuse, as seen in the illo's underdrawing:
I decided to make The Goddamn Maidman Pint-Size(d) as well just for the hell of it, and also to devote most of the illo's available space to Emp's figure. Onward to the Sharpie-based inks:
And the final colors:
The piece once again took four full work hours to produce, which is waaaay too long to be viable for further pieces along these lines; oh, well.
As with the other two pseudo-Con Sketches I worked up this month, I'll likely try to sell off this piece down the road, but I'm way too swamped with other work and real-world crap to contemplate doing so at the moment.
NEXT TIME ON THIS HERE PATREON: No idea, TBH, but something should be coming up in the next M/W/F slot. Let's find out together, shall we?
UPDATE: In fact, stand by for an exciting update on fantasy project The Chaste and the Chained next!

2024-10-01 18:43:07 +0000 UTCThis is absolutely adorable and hilarious all at the same time. Is Emp's distress at her situation, or at the absurdity going on around her? I suppose it's good that her powers meant she didn't fall victim to the spell that got the Goddamn Maidman, at least. Gorgeous work, and I hope you can keep on having fun with these different pieces as time permits!

2024-09-30 15:46:09 +0000 UTCI really like Emp's hair here. It reminds me of the old JBF story, and while I know that's not what happened here, it lends to the impression that she got a few more punches in fighting these ninjas than normally. Good for her!

2024-09-30 15:28:06 +0000 UTCI will say that this Maidman versus Ninja platoon is a very fun piece.
