Two Vampires, One Erika.

Hello again! We're back this week with the current flavor pairing, myself and vampire lolis! To be exact, it is once again Rachel Alucard from Blazblue, and Shalltear Bloodfallen from Overlord. This time however, it is drawn by the ever awesome Keeper of Pots! Not only that, but this time it's something that I personally commissioned. So I should at least have some interesting tidbits of information to say on it!

That being said, there isn't really a fancy story as to how or why this commission came to be. Keeper just had a queue for commissions at the time, and it happened to be my turn. Since this pairing was the flavor at the time, naturally it's what the subject of the commission would be!
However, since this is a picture by Keeper of Pots who I am in contact with, I did manage to get his quote on the picture. So let's see what he has to say before we get into the nitty gritty of it.

"I don’t recall a lot of the specifics regarding this piece - I’m fairly sure it was a commission during the time Erika was still very much into this particular vampire pairing. I recall it took me a little while to get you to look decent enough, Erika… but looking back at it, I’m still not 100% satisfied with how you came out. There are some little perspective pet peeves like the way the head is angled, and the breasts.

The rest of the piece works pretty good though, I’d say! I love how Rachel and Shalltear came out, particularly their expressions and I have a fondness for discarded clothing being visible in the picture. I added some flourishes to the image that wasn’t specified in the commission to liven things up a bit as well, like the tea kettle, bed and Rachel’s little imp bat.

I also love the “trope” (or whatever you’d call it) of a sub being subjugated by pleasure, so this was all in all a pretty fun one, despite some snafus regarding the Erika design."

 

 It's funny though, because to me, I have a different memory of how this commission went. This commission in particular sticks out to me because of how many changes and slight revisions it went through. Keeper of Pots is a very patient man, but even he was getting tired of the revisions it went though. If I recall, he was even saying that we physically could not do anymore changes to a certain part of the picture. This is because at the time, Keeper of Pots drew pictures traditionally at first, and the paper was being frayed from too many erasure marks.

And even after all that, there are actually a few things on this picture that still stand out to me that I'd like changed, not even counting Keeper's mention of the off model version of myself! For one, Shalltear's discarded shoes aren't right, but it's not too big a deal. Also, we didn't have a room reference in mind. I just kind of left it at: "A bedroom in Rachel's mansion" and we ended up with a dungeon looking area. (Funnily enough, a few years later and we'd actually see what Rachel's room looks like. Oops.) And as Keeper said, he did fill out the room with the random objects in there, but the pillar in the background felt weird to me, since that's just a structurally weird place to have a pillar.

 

Despite that though, I still do look back on this picture very fondly, and it's up there on one of my favorite vampire loli drawings of the time! Since I was in creative control here, I don't know how I couldn't end up loving a picture catered to my kinks as well as it being drawn by one of my favorite artists of all time! So despite some hiccups, I'd say that I'm still very satisfied with this picture even years later. Maybe one of these days I should look into this pairing again... it's been awhile after all! But until then, you'll still be seeing these characters quite a bit in the upcoming entries.

Making New Friends.

Greetings all! We're back this week with the first drawing from a very close artist to me. That's right, this weeks picture is by none other than the amazing artist and great friend Myuk! We also have a slight collaboration with another fantastic artist, Keeper of Pots. He was the one to have the colored version of the picture featured here. Now that I think about it, it's pretty interesting that two of my favorite artists and closest friends of all time are collabing here like this.

Back in 2016, I remember browsing Hypno Hub one day, as I did every day, and out of nowhere I saw a few pictures posted from an unknown artist showing up on the front page. They were all done traditionally, so there were unfortunately left uncolored, but nevertheless I was incredibly impressed with what I saw. So much so, that while it may have been shameless of me, I immediately sent that artist a private message welcoming them abd asking if by any chance they would be interested in drawing me. Luckily for me, not only were they willing to draw me, but apparently that had already known of me before hand.

Yes, that artist would eventually grow to become one of my closest friends, and someone whom I still talk to almost every day: Myuk! And since I'm still in contact with him, I managed to get a bit of blurb from him about this piece here:

"Back then, i was a lurker on the hub, taking peeks at all the hypno arts. I noticed a lot of drawings of you on the hub which caught my eye and I liked them a lot ~ then when I started posting drawings of my own, you messaged me about how you liked my artstyle. At the time, i was pretty star struck and excited that you noticed me because I was just a nobody at the time and seeing all the erika drawings made me think you must be pretty popular on the hub. So, at that moment, I wanted to draw you with my ocs ~ I didn't have a particular idea, but I always like very claustrophobic/intimate sex scenes and thought it would be super hot seeing erika getting overwhelmed with licks, tentacles, tails, cute girls; just steamy yuri sex lol.
In hindsight, there isn't clear hypnosis in the pic, unless you count inma's tail with aphrodisiac juices"

 

As mentioned there, the other characters in this picture are Myuk's OCs. Febe, Joyce, and Inma. You'll definitely be seeing more of them upcoming on the blog at some point as well. However, while that story may end here, there is in fact more to it to that. I did say earlier that Keeper of Pots made the colored version of this picture! As for how that came to be, Myuk himself was looking for assistance in coloring some of his pictures. A mutual friend of mine, and someone we've seen on this blog before: Psi, ended up taking up his request and colored on of Myuk's pieces.

However the piece Psi ended up coloring wasn't this one. Of course it was up to him on whatever he wanted to color, but I did feel kind of sad he didn't pick the Erika one, because back then I was rather selfish. So I asked Keeper of Pots if he would be willing to color this piece, and he was awesome enough to oblige my silly request. So we now have this awesome collab that, while maybe didn't come about under the most noblest of circumstances, I'm still very happy something like this exists.

And fun fact, for those of you aware of Joyce, Myuk's OC. You'd see that her hair is brown here instead of the usual dark blue. That's because at the time, Myuk didn't actually have a clear cut idea of what her hair color would be. I specifically asked him at the time, and he said brown. However since then, her hair has been changed to the dark blue that you all know today.
