Not all barmaids are busty.

Kosherbacon is not one for waiting patiently.

Not when there's fan-art of my offspring.

Dem collarbones <3

I can't decide.
I'm not much of a Lena fan. But the barmaid thing is interesting. Maybe if it was in color I could make a decision.

It's never enough for you, is it? >:c

*Sigh* You have no idea how hard it was to draw that uniform without boobs. Like it was some deep-seeded programming.
Thanks for the positive response guys. I did not mean to have a whole Fan Art thread named for me. It is somewhat convenient though, to know where to dump upcoming work. I don't think I can keep up this girl-a-day pace, but I've decided to do each girl solo before anything more ambitious.
Waytfm mentioned in Favorite Girls that the fan art section is "depressingly sober". Consider this post of Natasha my remedy. I hope her legs didn't come out too much like a pin-up girl.

I would've loved doing Lena in color. I was thinking green for the corset and skirt trim, something to really set off her eyes, hair, and skin tone. Trying to render value, highlight, and shadow in grayscale would've looked nice in person, but scanned awful. To whit, I am doing these strictly by hand from my college apartment and do not have my colored pencils at hand. Expect color in further down the road.
I've also learned to play with my scanner settings to get something considerably less grainy. If anyone knows a surefire way/settings to scan these better, I'd be grateful.

Scan at 300DPI, clean up in photoshop or similar, then shrink it a little bit.

I ain't gonna complain about it

Again, great job :3

Been playing with a few poses and finally found one I liked.
If you were wondering, Natalya did not go out drinking with her sister. Instead, she stayed in to bake muffins. Do we like her muffins?
Oh god, these are quickly becoming very irresponsible of me...

Muffins are, almost without exception, terrific things.

Interpret as you see fit.

Are muffins some sort of euphemism?

(kwisatz, you are beautiful.)

"Would you like us to assign someone to butter your muffin?"

Excellent work. Bad, but so good ><
Keep 'em coming, kwis

Holy sexualization, Kwisatz. That's fantastic in all the right ways.

Of all the times for me to decide to take a break from these forums...

That Natasha drawing was also of incredible quality, for being the ever-reliable No. 2 pencil.

Lena was damn fine too.

So it's been a long time since I contributed to the fan art. Or anything. The reasons are twofold. One, I've been in school, and engineering doesn't leave me the time to doodle like I used to. Two, I've posed myself with the conundrum: how do I showcase Jeanne's butt without it devolving into a pandering ass shot? I thought of her bent over in front of a telescope, but that would be hard to incorporate her face and she deserved better. I came to the eventual decision that an up-skirt shot was sexy and reasonably tasteful.

Aside from Isolda, I'm running low on inspiration for the other girls. If anyone has a pose/costume/etc. they want for them, send me a PM my way (just no guarantees).

...That there uniform is awfully tight on her chest.

Gosh, that makes me want to change my favorite girl choice...

I'd like to think that those are buttons. A uniform that tight on Jeanne would just pop open.

You heard it here first, folks. Up-skirts are now tasteful.
