KYOUTAKU HEADCANONS

I like to think Shindou has a really high alcohol tolerance. He can drink a lot and remain very aware, just more... happy and joyous. They're going out for drinks together, and Tsurugi with his meek lil beer can while shindou is already in his third 🍺.

Realized my one year dream of drawing Sakuma in the stage costume of AKB48's tragic love song between two men, Zankoku na Ame (Cruel Rain). I checked the performance video because of the premise, and it stays in my heart for the good song and the costume.

Un-fun fact about this song: this song is sang by AKB48 and its sister groups: NGT48 (Niigata) aka the first version of the song, CGM48 (Chiang Mai, Thailand), and JKT48 (Jakarta, Indonesia); and Indonesia's version is the only one to change the relationship between the singer characters to a het one... which as an Indonesian, is disappointing but not surprising

For this drawing I tried to render more loosely and sketch using lasso fill tool, and instead of eyeballing the color I used greyscale + gradient map + blending modes. The result is that I drew much faster! Back then this scale of drawing would take 12 hours the fastest but I managed to only take 9 hours with this method. I did a lot of tweaking particularly with the values of the color to keep the composition balanced. And it's a pro tip: if the colors feel off, it's likely either 1. the values are off or 2. the color composition isn't at 60:30:10.

I always admire arts with painterly style, particularly the ones where you can see mess and blobs when zoom in it, so I tried to draw this work that way here. Overall while I'm not necessarily proud of the end result, I am proud of my more refined workflow. For next art, I plan to adapt another Jpop queer love song, Good Times and Tan Lines by SUPER DRAGON which is a group I've been really liking lately (I'm experiencing idol renaissance rn). I want to make a simple MV with Kisaku.. it has been a while since my last Kisaku art

I FINALLY HAVE TIME TO DRAW AGAIN here have some kaze doodles with new brushes

I just finished watching season 1 of GO

I know I’ve drawn them get married before but now it’s official

Hatsune Miku sang at their wedding and it was beautiful

This is from 2013. You'd think with how much I look through my old art when I feel nostalgic, I wouldn't find things I don't remember existing, but alas.

I don't believe I ever posted this (or maybe on a different blog...?) but I thought it's kinda neat and would be a shame to be left gathering dust.
