Drawing #150 (!!!!) / 2022 Artwork #13: Don't ask me where I got the inspiration for this piece, because I have no idea. My initial thoughts were I'd do something special for my one-hundred and fiftieth drawing, but sometimes the brain wants what it wants.
When Shinji requested an actual officer's uniform, this wasn't quite what he was expecting...

Drawing #151 / 2022 Artwork #14: Akane from Seo Koji's manga Megami no Cafe Terrace, one of my favorite current series that I'm reading... out of way too many.
It's been a minute since I last drew a guitar, so I'd nearly forgotten how much of a pain in the ass they are. Drawing, coloring, and shading that Gretsch White Falcon took nearly as much time as it did to draw Akane in this. Now I remember why I don't draw guitars anymore...

Kaji's got some explaining to do!Drawing #148 / 2022 Artwork #11: Remember the last time I went Peak Stupid and drew an internet meme? Well, I decided to embrace the idiocy and spent six hours drawing and coloring that one Misato meme that's been making the runs on the internet lately.
Drawing #159 / 2022 Artwork #22: Komi discovers a new hobby, part 3, wherein her friend Tadano has to try a cosplay of his own...
Drawing #160 / 2022 Artwork #23: Mio Akiyama from K-On.
Drawing #161 / 2022 Artwork #24: The first time I've drawing Ryoko from Tenchi Muyo since high school. This series was basically the Patient 0 for what kickstarted my interest in anime back then, and it's still one of my favorites.
Drawing #162 / 2022 Artwork #25: Misato's the Captain now on this installment of EVA-Trek.

I really like this one a lot.Drawing #162 / 2022 Artwork #25: Misato's the Captain now on this installment of EVA-Trek.
So, why do I like that one so much? Because it's almost exactly how I envision a scene from a story I have in my head (but haven't written yet).
Several of the crew and contract technicians are installing new systems in the Bridge. As it just happens, all of the enlisted crew on this detail are young women (oldest about 27). A Lieutenant is sitting in the command chair, supervising the work, and she is called away right when the contractors take their lunch break. She hands the PADD off to the ranking Petty Officer, leaving the enlisted to their own devices. (To be fair, they do keep working on the install.)
As soon as the Officer leaves, the Petty Officer hops into the center seat. Someone tells her she should not do that, but she replies that her application for Officer Training School is at headquarters for final approval. She's just "trying it out to see how it fits". The conversation quickly turns to "how cute" some of the contractors are, and also some of the male crew members, to include the First Officer and Captain.
What they don't realize is when she sat down in the command chair, her elbow hit the button for All Hands / All Decks broadcast. The entire ship, including the captain, heard them talking. Oops.
So, yeah, other than the rank insignia, that image could have been pull right out of my mind.

I'd never heard of her until now, so I can't say that I have.
"Kid, I told you to go before we beamed down!"
Late-week update, mainly because I've been on a bit of a low-ebb as far as drawings are concerned. On the writing front, I've been able to complete the teaser, act one, two, and five for the second EVA-Trek script - so, plenty of creative juices flowing this week! Anyways, onto the latest pieces I've done...
Drawing #163 / 2022 Artwork #26: Marin from My Dress-Up Darling tries out her Faye Valentine outfit for her Cowboy Bebop cosplay.
Drawing #164 / 2022 Artwork #27: Q decides to have a little fun with his old friend Jean-Luc after seeing him for the first time in 30 years. I never thought I would ever draw Sir Patrick Stewart in a plugsuit from Evangelion, but the world is an unpredictable place these days.
