Kiran from the Archives

I resaved some more of our older pictures to make them much bigger and higher quality, and thus easier to enjoy the details. Here's a selection of pictures from 2001-2002 featuring Cutepet's cutey blonde witch character, Kiran!

Ryougi Shiki WIP 2

Here's some more workups and sketches from the Ryougi Shiki picture:



Here you can see how I refined the rough sketches and concepts along the top into the final three picture candidates I posted in the last WIP post. Of the three concepts, I ended up going with image concept #2, which further refined into the bottom three sketches you see in this picture.

To really nail the anatomy, I took my favorite version of the sketch, and started breaking down the perspective:



Perspective isn't just for backgrounds. The character also conforms to the vanishing points. If you look closely at the top image, you can see where her body used to be, and how it was reworked to follow the perspective.

Working from the bottom blue sketch, next I did a final clean pencil drawing, and then finished it with the inks and color. A lot of love and time goes into each of our images, as I hope these WIP show. :)

Ryougi Shiki WIP

New picture in the works... this is Ryougi Shiki from an anime series called Kara no Kyoukai.

When working out a new picture, I'll sometimes come up with multiple rough composition sketches. That allows me to try out different variations on a pose/camera angle, and see what works best. Stay tuned to find out which one I end up using.... :)


In keeping with the character design exercises I've been doing lately, here is a turnaround I did for Shiki:



Work in progress sketches continued in Ryougi Shiki WIP 2!

Sci-fi Amelia WIP

Here's the next picture in progress, coming up after Rukia and Kagura are completed:


This is a commission I'm working on of original sci-fi character Amelia. She's taking a break from her navigational duties to toy herself with a remote control operated device. A hidden feature of the ship. *grin* :D

Here's the character design sketch of Amelia modeling the naughty-hide-nothing sci-fi outfit she'll be wearing in the picture (She can speak in binary, hence the binary barcode word balloon):



On a separate note, some of you have noticed that Studio Cutepet has taken up residence on DeviantArt, and have expressed concern about imposter art thieves. Thanks for looking out for us! I assure you, that is indeed me posting there, so feel free to watch us and favorite our pics. I'll be periodically posting a sampling of our softcore images there. :) We're also now on Hentaifoundry and HentaiArtist. ^_^

Like always though, the most complete collection of Cutepet art will be on our website. Enjoy the pics! =^_^=

Angelissa - Pegasus Transformation

This one was a huge undertaking that we've been working on since last month. A triptych piece of Angelissa transforming into a pegasus. That's three figures, and six pairs of wings. The file size on the final version containing all three parts is massive.

Full version:


Just Angelissa:


Mid-transformation:


And here's an early version of the sketch:


Angelissa pops up in a lot of our pictures--in fact, we've been "playing" with her since 2001--but she's not a Cutepet original character. This this four-winged beauty was created by Angel, whose website can be found here. Thanks, Angel, for all the commissions over the years. We love Angelissa. :)

Rukia and Kagura - WIP

Here's a sneak peek at a new image I'm working on featuring Rukia Kuchiki from Bleach and Kagura from Azumanga Daioh, for an individual who loves both characters. :)



Doing design sketches of the characters allows me to feel out their anatomy. Every character is different, and I don't just mean the size of their breasts. =p Some artists fall back on the same curvy body type every time, but I find that to be a little bit boring. In the case of these two, Kagura is a very athletic and sporty character, with thicker proportions that Rukia, so I wanted to make sure that came across in the picture. (Note also how they compare to the taller, fashion-model-proportioned woman from the "Sunlit Veranda" image.)




Once I felt I understood Rukia and Kagura's individual characteristics, I worked up the composition for the picture. The concept is Rukia is touching herself while she watches Kagura having sex with some guy. Who the guy is....who knows. Perhaps it's you, the viewer. :D




Stay tuned for further developments...!

Also coming soon:

Sunlit Veranda - Complete



Sunlit Veranda started with this sketch supplied by the client (posted here with his permission). He wanted me to take the general idea presented in the sketch and, in a word, "Cutepetify" it. :)



The first step after that was to work out the look of the woman in my style while still capturing the essence of the woman from the client's sketch. Using charcoal pencil on newsprint, I did a number of character design sketches, shown here.



Once that was done, I worked out the general composition and final character design which you can see in this earlier blog post.

Then I colored in the background, which you can see the step-by-step process for below.



I generally save coloring the character for last. (If you think of the background art as the "veggies", the necessary nutritious parts of the picture, then the character is the "dessert", the tasty treat at the end.) :)

Kiran - Full Moon



I was going through the old image archives, and found this picture of our Kiran character from 2002. For what ever reason, she was only briefly posted on Cutepet. I'm not sure why the image wasn't on the website long... maybe it got lost in the shuffle when we were redoing the web design. In any case, it's still a charming pic of our witch lady, so I thought I would share it on the blog (it's also been added to 2002 gallery on Cutepet where it belongs). Enjoy! :)

Alone on the Veranda - WIP

New picture in the works. A woman touches herself in the privacy of her secluded veranda. At least, she thinks no one is watching. :)

Here is the character design and sketch so far.

Angelissa on a Cloud WIP

There's a new picture in the works of our favorite four-winged angel, Angelissa! Right now she is completely penciled and awaiting inks and color.

Here's a look at the progress so far:

Every picture starts with an idea. This rough thumbnail shows the general composition of Angelissa leaning back on a cloud while touching herself.



The idea was further refined into a slightly larger drawing This one is ballpoint pen with blue pencil for wings.



The final pencil art was done on 11"x 14" bristol in graphite and blue pencil. Her négligée will be drawn on another layer.



Stay tuned for the finished piece!

Elly and KOS MOS

Here's the newest picture I just finished up, some yuri action between Xenogear's Elly and Xenosaga's KOS MOS. Enjoy~


So I thought everyone would enjoy hearing a little bit about the creation process that every picture goes through.

The first step is coming up with the concept, which in this case entailed both coming up with a creative way of drawing the girl's outfits while exposing their naughty bits, and thinking up an exciting composition and poses. Each of these sketches are no larger than a inch or two in size so I can create them quickly.


Once I've settled with an idea, I create a rough sketch and work out the anatomy, the pose, and the background in a larger size. I typically drawn standard 8.5"x11" printer paper at this stage.


Once I'm satisfied, this sketch is enlarged to the full 11"x14" size for a final, clean pencil pass on higher quality paper.


Next, this drawing is scanned into the computer and inked in Painter (This step was skipped in the recent Chrono Trigger picture I did of Marle and Lucca to give the piece a softer, sweeter touch).


Finally, the background and characters are colored in Photoshop. That's the whole process! :)

Mogador Summoner


This piece was originally going to be one of the wallpaper images included on the Fantasy Medley Image CD, but was left out due to lack of time. More artwork of the Mogador Summoner can be found on the Fantasy Medley CD.

Aquarella

In 2002, I was commissioned to do this mermaid picture after the client saw my Pisces mermaid picture. One of the specific requirements for this picture was that the mermaid should have a fish tail that cut around her pubic area in a "V" shape. How does one make love to a mermaid? Maybe this is how! When I drew Pisces, I put the opening in the back. It was interesting to try a different take on the subject.

Introductory Post!

Welcome to the new Cutepet blog! In this space in the upcoming months, we'll be showcasing pictures from the archive as well as new works, including work in progress sketches and creator commentary.

I don't have any new pictures to share right now, but I've been slowly going back through the archives and resaving the pictures in a larger format so the details can more easily enjoyed.

To get things started, here's a picture from 2003 featuring our characters Antoinette and Bunni cuddling in the grass. Remember these lovely ladies?
