Guoh Bagi

Really, it was just a matter of time before I got to this one. I mean, it was probably one of the first Guoh sketches that I saved.

But… let’s talk for a minute about Bagi, okay? Sure, I’ve seen it. Heck, you can watch the whole thing on Youtube now if you want…

Came out in 1984, but before you try to defend it because of the date, here’s some OTHER animes that came out in 1984.

Macross: Do You Remember Love?

Urusei Yatsura

Now I’m not Anime expert, but those are all pretty classic because even >I< have seen them! But Bagi… I tell you, if it wasn’t for Bagi herself, that would be the most shit anime I’ve ever watched. Not the worst in existence, just the worst I ever watched. Why did I watch it?

I’ll give you one guess. I mean, it feels like the plot – such as it is, was written on the back of a napkin, and they lost the napkin halfway through. I’m not going to turn all movie critic on you, but… dudes… it was bad. It really felt like it was written as a bad fanfic.  A VERY bad fanfic. She even licks the kid in the jungle? And dances for him? JEEZE! I think I wrote this when I was 14 and discovered my Special Purpose! And catgirls of course.

And yet… here I am 34 years after she was first created, coloring Bagi’s junk. I guess that just goes to show that even good things CAN come out of crap movies. Should you go watch Bagi? I guess. Sure. Just don’t tell anyone >I< told you to!

And there it is. Off model badly (thank God and Guoh!), and I felt her ‘real’ color was too light so I darkened it up some. And she doesn’t have a pale belly, but all catgirls should so screw it – she does now! 🙂

I do like Bagi – the character. And parts of the movie itself were pretty inspired. Too bad it was surrounded by so much other crap. And motorcycles. And Australian hats for some reason. And Astro-Boy.

And of course, thanks again to Guoh, who just cranks these things out it seems! Damn – how can this not be popular with such a beginning sketch? Not my most detailed coloring work, but I sure as hell like it! Like…. lots.

Presenting – Incarnation (erotica)

Well, I did it. I wrote my first gosh-darned out and out furry erotica. It won’t be a long story, but it is long enough to need it’s own separate blog since mostly I just post images here. The demon is the lion-demoness from the last image I did.  Good news is I am going someplace with it, and even the sex is at least not ONLY there for prurient reasons. It has a purpose.

Is it good? Is it bad? Is it cringeworthy? Honestly, I don’t know that I can answer that. I like it. That’s all I can say.

You can read it here:

3 chapters so far. The third is where the porn is. It’s not PRIMARILY porn, but when it gets there, it goes all-the-way.

Lyin Eyes

So, it’s time for another game of “What Guoh drawing did Bluedraggy color now?” I really can’t help it. He just makes so many good ones!

This one’s going to look a little different though. I’d watched some tutorials, primarily on doing fur and also color. So I tried to apply those at least somewhat to this one.

Also, you know when you do these, you spend a lot of time with the ‘character’. My brain starts putting together a story. Usually it’s sated by just a quick one or two sentence thing, but this time it took off. I’m writing a story. I’ve only got the first chapter done, and it’s in a rough state, but if you’d like to read it I’ve got it up at pastebin: https://pastebin.com/TwVbQDRv

It will EVENTUALLY involve this demon lioness.

Technically that’s not quite the original sketch. I’d removed some of his shading since I was going to do shading over it anyway.  I still started with flat colors, though the coloring tutorial just dove right in without them. But even if I end up completely covering the flat base with other stuff, I still like it to be under there.

Okay, here’s where the new stuff begins. I used a fur brush I downloaded for this. The brush itself adds it’s own variety to the base color in a semi-random manner so each stroke of the fur brush will contain their own slight variance.

Here I’ve used the same fur brush but with a yellower tint for the highlighting, and a bluer tint for the darker areas. I do like the result. It kind of let’s me do my gloss thing without looking like rubber.

And this is the end result after adding a background, more highlighting and a little more gloss on, shall we say… key areas.

I think I may have killed it’s popularity somewhat by adding that very dark background. But I still like it. I’ll put the story up after I get a couple more chapters done and at least somewhat proofread. I’ve not even made the blog for it yet though, so I can’t post it here yet. It will be NSFW. Undoubtedly.

Guoh Mirage

Someone said roughly, “Dude – you gotta stop with the boobless lizards!”. I agree. So let’s get back to something a LOT more curvy, shall we? I found a Guoh drawing of Mirage from Aladdin some weeks ago and stored it, waiting for a chance to color it.  Just finished and I think it’s a good validation that yes, in fact, I am quite, QUITE enamored with female breasts still.

I couldn’t quite decide what color to use for the nipples, so I have an alternate as well.

Given the context of Mirage in the first place, this is the more likely color:

Really I like em both. Lots! And again thanks ultimately to Guoh for drawing these!  

And before anyone says anything – yeah, I’m quite aware that fur doesn’t reflect like that. Ah, but see, this is fantasy. It can do anything I want! AHAHAHAHA!
