My dA pageviews have reached 100k, so here’s a lil celebration. And this is a thank you for visitors to Moonwarrior too!

Amazonia has been revamped for Femuscle Roleplaying. I have also added an art section called Daily Scrawls, where you can view daily sketches by me and other members of Amazonia. Anyone is welcome to join. We often draw our original characters.

A belated birthday gift for Higalack, who likes girls with guns. Surprise! Higalack had made a surprise gift art of Alika for me earlier.

I commissioned Refaal for a fanart of my character Alexis, because I liked his fashion sense. The finished art looked like a great piece for colouring, so I did. Here ’tis, Her Majesty Alexis xD

Companion sketch to Gem & Kate. Alexis is the buff one on the left, who’s going to give Kate a hard time :P Effie is Gem’s roommate… who’s probably going to give Gem a hard time. In a nice way. *laughs*

Characters of a story I haven’t written yet. The gal on the left is Gem-chan, and the buff one on the right is Kate. They’re freshmen. That’s all I know for sure, but I think Kate is also a wrestler. I’ve read about how awesome the female wrestlers are, and I want to learn more.

The 2nd of my Moon Samurai series, sister-art to Akami.

GLHTurbo/St-Bewolo was one of my first and dear FM friends, and he gave me a gift character Mika. I had wanted to create something in return, and finally, I was able to offer him Rishu, just before he left the FM community again for personal reasons.

Rishu is a very sensual lady. Her impressive size and honed body attest to her amazing strength and skill, all the while upholding the samurai ideals of honour and loyalty. However, unlike the stoically dutiful Akami, Rishu definitely also enjoys having fun. Rishu leaves her silky black hair loose and flowing, gentle like the water. With her alluring eyes and voluptuous endowments, she easily reaches people’s hearts.

Kulli did an amazing coordination of getting the artists at Amaz0ns to showcase a character each in an Amaz0ns community pic. Youta and I contributed this pic.

Yay!! Fanart love from Debido-san, TC2 and Black Kusanagi.

It is my pleasure to introduce to you Moonwarrior’s Samurai Guardian, Akami. She has been long in the making (since last year), because I didn’t have the skills then, and lately I haven’t been able to attend to my art much. But it’s finally done, thanks to all the support to get me through that home stretch.

TC2 observed that perhaps Akami will symbolise the closing of a chapter, in anticipation of a new one. It’s rather fitting, then, that she should debut on my birthday. Please enjoy this celebration with me.

My colouring method has changed a lot since my last tutorial. So it’s a good time to make a new one. And lucky I did, because the breaks I took between colouring Akami’s artwork were so long that I’d often forget how I coloured different parts. Feel free to ask any questions, I’ll try my best to clarify.

Update 21 Sep 07: Added MKV versions of the clips.

Update 23 Sep 07: Very important setting I forgot to mention! The Paper Setting for the colour layer needs to have Roughness: 0%

A couple of sketches to bide away those quiet nights.

UPDATE: “Costume failure!!” *laughs*

Thanks: TC2 for staying up nights to cheer me along; Ad Meyer and those who gave me feedback, they were valuable, thank you.

Entry for IMAF 2006. It didn’t place, but it was a good experience, and allowed me to create some wonderful characters.

Manga featuring my first femuscle character.

This is based on my current method of colouring skin, as in Jenna vs Reigh.

Level: Intermediate (I try to keep it simple)

This is Alika, the protector and guardian of this journal. Her name means “defender of mankind”. I hope she will bring good luck to this abode, and look after you well.
