Jackanapes Shots
From last month. Still most proud of the expressions.
Abandoned Ariel
Commissioners and patrons, sorry for the lack of content lately— I haven’t forgotten about you, just been sick. Nothing serious, but colds have a particular way of stripping me of the motivation to draw.Speaking of losing motivation, it’s been a while since i worked on this, and will likely be a while still. I like some things about it, but I’m not sure it’s salvageable. Something’s off about the timing.Anyway, decided to share it wit...

Gotta transition Daphne and Co. to visiting the dwarves, who won the last poll. Had fun with the expressions, though.

I’ve gotten to really like making different facial expressions on Squanknuts. Of course, I’ve now got to go back to earlier pages and draw him better.
Jean Grey SFW
The fiery redhead shows off why she’s the object of desire for both short hairy Canucks and monocular Boy Scouts.I still can’t figure out what to call these: Sex-Men? Implies these are dudes when they certainly are not. X-Women? Boring. New(d) Mutants? Maybe…Anyway, she’s nekkid for ya’ll next month. And, I’m having fun with the series so far. How long should I keep this up? How obscure should the characters get?
Jean Grey Line Art
I like how she came out.Relatedly, popped by my DeviantArt account earlier today, and was amazed at:1) fully 90% of the “art” on the new art page was AI2) at pure “pretty pinups”, AI seems far superior to mine.But, I’m just glad that I have my niche, because my art has a wit, and personality that AI doesn’t. If I was just doing fan art pinups, I think I’d be sunk. But I don’t see AI doing Jackanapes anytime soon.

The last poll was a tie, so I flipped a coin. Gotta figure out a better way for breaking ties, but the fewer people vote, the more likely ties will be. Sorry for the sparse updates, but my internet’s out at home.
Commission Sale Extended
Commission Sale Extended— Now Up To 50% Off!I’ve had several people contact me after the sale ended, or make comments that it was unfortunately poorly timed. So, here’s what I’m gonna do: commission sale extended through the end of the weekend (9/15 last day). Get your deposits to me by then, and you’ll get a place in line with the above prices. I’ve started on one commission, and the others will queue behind them in the order I recei...

Yuffie, inked

The Goddess of Whether Or Not To Wear Clothes.Next will either be Jean Grey or Kitty Pryde— haven’t figured out how to break the tie yet.

Coming to the end of the gorgon arc. Where will they go next, I wonder?

Man, there’s just a ton of stuff I forgot to post…

Oh man, I’m sorry guys— forgot to post this before the month changed. This counts for August.
Commission Sale Starts Now
This will likely be the only sale of 2024. I also think this is my biggest-ever sale, 1/3 off usual prices— plus you get your Patreon tier discount on top.First-come, first-served, and spotswill be reserved by a deposit of half the fee, via Amazon.come-gift card, sent to japes.art19@gmail.comIf you have any questions about pricing your idea, or whether I can do your commission, (for instance, if you’ve never seen me do that content before) pl...
Commission Sale Starts Tomorrow
Probably in the afternoon, when I get off work. Here’s my last 6 commissions, BTW.
Jackanapes The Tenth, Page 11
FYI, I’ve decided that all Jackanapes from “The Tenth,” on will be Patreon exclusives (aside from the someday print version). I figure, #1, there’s enough Jackanapes out there right now to catch the interest of anybody who’s gonna be interested, and #2, you fine people deserve more special, exclusive stuff.
Commission Sale Incoming!
Commissions are always open, but they are rarely on sale. This will likely be the only sale of 2024, for instance. I also think this is my biggest-ever sale, 1/3 off usual prices— plus you get your Patreon tier discount on top!Think about what you might want, sock away your money, because commission slots will be limited, and on a first-come, first-served basis. If you’d like me to price your idea for you, or confirm I can do it, feel free to...
Storm Front SFW
She’s nekkid next month, tho.

Whaddya think? Hope you like it, b/c it’s already done.

A Storm Warning, if you will…

The White Queen reigns… Storm’s coming next.

I’m particularly proud of the script on this page. It’s got jokes that pay off set-ups from all the way back on page 4! It’s sometimes a struggle to not write Loin as too stupid to live, but I think I got the right balance.
Jackanapes Shots
Here they be.

Poor Medusa. Usually, in mythology, when the hero kills Medusa, he takes her head. Here, she gives it!Once again, I want to acknowledge how indebted Medusa’s sisters are to Yzma and Ursula. I knew they were going to be needed, but I didn’t know how much I’d be using them, so I didn’t want to spend too much time on their character design. But modified versions of those two great Disney villains worked perfect. I hope you all notice the lit...
Emma Frost SFW
The White Queen reigns. NSFW version next month.

This month’s X-Woman!LFG!
Psylocke NSFW
Japesified X-Men pinups continue! I’ve been waiting to draw Psylocke for years! See, dreams do come true.Looks like Emma Frost is next!
Rikku
Upgraded sketch for a highest tier supporter, a character from Final Fantasy.
Upgraded Rogue Sketch
The sketch that gave me the idea to start my new series. You can see how it informed the finished Rogue piece from before. I just don’t like the stiffness of the pose compared to the more dynamic piece I posted earlier. But, you know, that’s what sketches are for!
