Art of DPX | Blue Fish Apartment

So I finished doing the signs, so now I can work on the buildings. As of now, the left side of the buildings have their flat colors. I still have to do the right, center, vehicles, and pavement.

The signs that were too blurry, I'll still use as they appeared in JSR as long as they're further back.

The Hiragana and Katakana are fine and I can trace (or type) them out if it's just those present on a sign. But if there's Kanji mixed in that I can't figure out, then the either part of, or all, of the sign's getting tossed.

#JetSetRadio #JSR

But there's some that are so blurry, it's hard to discern what the Kanji says in some of these. I've been using (kanji.sljfaq.org) to get an idea, but again, the blurriness of some of these is killing me. I may just leave some of these blank and just use the logos.

#WIPArtwork Time!

I finished the 2nd Sketch for Piranha's background. But Before I start doing the Flat Colors, I gotta do some of the signs that'll be visible. I'm having some success tracing some of the more legible ones, Like Ken and Mary and Bom Bom.

Israel is now added to the Blocked countries list for the Blue Fish Apartment. Can't stop them from visiting the other galleries, but I can at least tell them to kick rocks from visiting the BFA.

I've set it up so that UK visitors aren't fully blocked, but instead get redirected to my Links page instead. The closest UK visitors will get to all artwork posted to BFA will be through NewGrounds.

It is done. I'm sorry to my UK peeps. But I gotta block ya'll from the Blue Fish Apartment. You already know I draw NSFW artwork, and I got age gates up for artwork that needs them. But the UK wants me to see your ID, or give it to a 3rd party. I ain't about that life.

Harriette, Letter Carrier of the White Rabbit Post “Whether Rain, Sleet, Snow, or meteor storms, we’ll deliver! Closed on Full Moons.” Harriette’s back, and now she finally has a profession!

There's a whole lot more to talk about over on the BFA. I'll speak more about Harriette's role in Belinda's world when I start posting the Main Circle later on.

I ended up referencing a photo from Marie Bunny for the pose. The outfit was partially based off the USPS uniform. And the boxes are all riffs from real world companies. There's even one from my old part-time at Michaels!

I made the decision to put her in the same universe as Belinda Cauldron. The previous times I drew Harriette, she was supposed to be chubby. But It never came out right or wasn't obvious. So I referenced Marie Bunny for this.

Continuing with my OCs for 2021, here's Harriette. Before this, Harriette had only two pics for Easter, and both NSFW. Now, she has a job!

Home of The Nameless Mermaid “When she had a name, she had a home. Until…” It’s been over 5 years since I last drew The Nameless Mermaid, and it was back when I used GIMP.

I'll talk more about her new design when I start uploading the Main Circle later on. But for this pic, there's more info over on the BFA.

But why is she the "Nameless Mermaid". It's an inside joke that I decided to run with. She's one of my many OCs that started from a hentai idea well over a decade ago. She had a name. But over the years... I forgot it! I remembered her design.

#OC #OriginalCharacter #mermaid #mermay #NSFW #R18

Previously, I drew her underwater. But since I was still using GIMP, I had no confidence in using filters to express that "feel" of being underwater. This time around I'd apply filter that to this pic. Nameless would also get a redesign for this.

Around this time, I was nearly done with building the new BFA website and had some time. So I draw up one of my other OCs, the Nameless Mermaid. It had been 6 years since I drew her.

I knew eventually I'd have to do a full render of them together. Wouldn't happen in 2020 since LNY fell on January. But in 2021, it was in February.

The ladies here are Rhapsody and Xiuying, my OCs. For years, there was a running theme with their silly sketches, both of them being drawn together since their holidays, Valentine's Day and Lunar New Year, tend to fall on the same month.

The job mentioned I've quit since 2020. But I have another job that's full time. However it's because of this job I have now that I had to shut down commissions since January 2024.

Once I got the angle, I did a rough trace of the whole thing. I'll be adding on details as I go along.

The streets on both sides of the Ichiban Top building have inclines at different angles, eventually meeting at the back. This made it difficult to nail down the perspective. Then I found an environment viewer via Reddit. Took a bit of futzing to get the perfect angle.

#WIPArtwork Time!

Finished shading in Piranha. Now onto the background. I actually did this before shading in Piranha, and it took a lot of trial and error. I booted up the game to get some shots of this section of Shibuya-cho. But it didn't go so swimmingly.

#JetSetRadio

By this point, I already quit Michaels and went back to freelancing (actually quit in October 2020). I had a bunch of free-time once again. So the time came to finally start going full speed ahead with building the new Blue Fish Apartment, away from FC2 Blog.

On the next Old Artwork post, 2021!

I had this long compound frame that had 5 of the Pocky-tan from 2018. But there was a 6th spot that was empty. So she said I should add one more. The original 5 were based on the 5 flavors that were officially available in the U.S. So I added one that was an import!

My final pic for the cursed year, and my only self-started pic that wasn't a commission for the year. The idea to create Azuki-tan came from a co-worker of mine.
