Description
This is Sara. She's friendly, mostly. And I think she likes you.---
I always liked the basic structure of this lineart, and hey, look, I actually finished drawing something. That's something new for this year.
I tried hard to make her legs look really shiny, like oiled latex or something, and I think I succeeded. The color contrast came out good, too: She pops off the background pretty well — the random-anime-bubbles background that I lazily drew this morning when I wanted some kind of background behind her that wasn't just a solid color. I don't know where she's supposed to be, but underwater, maybe? Volcanic heat vent? I dunno.
Anyway, this is my usual pile of innumerable hours of bending and tweaking splines with a mouse (yes, this was done entirely in CorelDRAW X5 using a mouse), and it produced a pinup of a blond, pink-legged octopus girl with searing blue eyes. This picture isn't marked mature, because there's nothing showing, which is exactly the way Sara planned her pose: A girl is so much more enticing when there's nothing you can see...

Not often. I have sometimes in the past, but the rules can be complex and the prices are often significant. If you really want to discuss a commission, you can send me a Note.

Beautiful! The perspective on the legs is perfect, the shines to make her look nice and wet... all great. Lovely job!
I feel for you, doing this with a mouse. I used to do the same. It takes some crazy patience.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it. You should join my drawing streams sometime; there's often more where this came from.

Yes!
I had an idea one time for an east-Asia cecaelia who had shiny black leather/latex-like tentacles; it sounds similar to what you did here.
I'm sorry, "strawberryblonde" wut?

"Strawberry blonde" is a hair color, blonde with reddish or orangey highlights.

I am strawberry blonde, so I speak from experience when I say that doesn't look like it!

Well, if I go to Google Images, type in "strawberry blonde," and hit Enter, she looks like about a third of the people in the result set, so I think it's still a fair assessment. She's closer to the blonde end of the scale, but I still wouldn't call her an outright blonde.

Very lovely curves--in VECTOR, yet--thoughtful, successful anatomy, quite beautiful... Great hands! I do so love it when you finish something.

I remember seeing her somewheres as a sketch, she was called Lissa once.

Looks like she was a "Lissa" when I first drew her, but I didn't note that in the file at the time. I really think "Sara" fits her better, though.

Well, I suppose it is a better name for her.

love the come hither with the octopus arm. I bet she has a lovely singing voice
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
She's a soprano, very pure, with almost no vibrato. She's had no formal training, and is a little embarrassed about her singing voice, but it's very pleasant to listen to.

I like the bottom tentacle enticing us, almost saying "come here!" A wondeful piece.
