This was by Cider commissioned by Enheldor. I asked Enheldor if I could color it, and he said yes so here it is! I’ve got another of these two I’ll probably do too. I think my coloring style works best with cartoony styles like these. I won’t go through the whole thing, just the final version this time.
I have no idea why Rainbow Dash and Adine – but they are cute together I must admit.
Quill-Weave sunning herself on a rock. I really liked Ciderward’s “where did the summer go” last bikini pic, so when Johnny Cheesedog scanned and posted this a while ago, it was just a matter of time before I got my sweaty claws on it.

by Kazerad commissioned by Johnny Cheesedog:
Extra Crispy:
After I colored it and made her all sweaty and hot. I think I may need to find more QW to make sweaty and hot again. Damn that calendar, I’ll miss sweaty and hot!
And what do you know? It’s not even Questionable!!!
I knew it. I got a little bit of $ in my Paypal account and left $20 in there just in case Kaz did another stream before the big U. Then my alert went off on Friday that his stream had gone active. Woohoo! Even better, I was doing nothing Friday night anyway.
Homestream this time. I think of that as both good and bad. Good because commissions aren’t physical drawings and they come already Kaz-colored. Bad because I don’t get to practice coloring – and I DO have fun coloring. I think I didn’t get enough crayons as a child.
I really wanted to stretch that $20 to two commissions so they’re not gonna be awesome but still… I did want to get one in as First Commission as I’ve noticed that the first commission he tends to spend more time on. (Is this another time management issue with Kaz?). I came up with Katia working on the Update.
Then someone in the stream added, “NEKKID!”. So.. Katia working hard on the update… Naked.
I think honestly he started this at 8:30pm. He was nearing completion around 9:30. But then he started revising shading. I even started telling him, “STOP! It’s okay as-is!”. I felt guilty for taking 1.5 hrs on a $10 commission. But he ended up with this. I’m happy! (Debating if I should use my photoshop skills and lower the monitors just a TEENSY bit… No! Stop thinking like that! BAD DRAGGY!)
Then he started on Rick2Tails’ commission. The commission involved another fanart that I can’t post here and was basically, “do another take on this”. Let’s just say it involved Surly Bartender and Rajirra. Rather surprisingly Kaz did a pretty much straight-on Bartender Gropes Rajirra’s Tits! And at the last minute added “Erotic Honk!” caption.
Why do I mention that? Rick2Tails asked me if I could remove the caption. Once again, being the naughty draggy… I did so, just for R2T. Well, it was like 15 minutes in Photoshop. Not exactly hard to do.
I think I might actually have pissed off Kaz with this edit though. Well, gently pissed. I saw on R2T’s FA page that he’s requested the edit not be sent to e621. I feel bad about that because you can’t put the genie back in the bottle. So I’ve learned a lesson here anyway. I will hereby never mess with anyone else’s commissions. It’s official and honest. I can mess with my own though!
Finally I had another idea for my 2nd commission. I like Weedum-Ja and she doesn’t seem to get enough love. (I can’t imagine why? She has, like 4 different frames in the entire Prequel canon!). Someone mentioned that Kaz would be more likely to draw Argonians topless because they have no nipples (Probably. Who knows? Such things apparently are quite variable with Argonians.)
So rather than have it be just blatant lewd topless, I thought of accidental bikini top loss at the beach. So I commissioned that. Instead, I got “Swamped by a Rogue Wave Weedum-Ja”:
I think I captioned this something like: “Fortunately Argonians can breathe underwater. But Weedum-Ja’s bikini top was never seen again.”
I really like this one. Something about the swirly water in it really appeals to me. You can picture this as one frame in an animation where she’s tumbling around out of control. So much so that I may do the un-thinkable. Rather than make it more lewd, I might actually edit it to make it LESS so by editing her bikini back in!
Oh, who am I kidding? If I made any edit, it would probably be to add a lorebreaking nipple.
It wouldn’t be the first time… http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/80565/?
I understand that little Aggy diversion was pretty much all drawn by Cider. Some time ago (like, years) I started following his Ciderward blog too.
He does seem to go through phases where he thinks all he does turns to shit, and he’s in one of those now I guess. Somehow I doubt that, but that’s not my call to make. Still, I think of all the work he’s done for Prequel pro bono (can we say that on a SFW blog?) and I thought I should thank him somehow. He’d been doing commissions a while back but I missed those.
So when Kaz did a barstream I had this great idea – I’d commission Katia + one of Cider’s OCs! Have Kaz draw Cider’s character instead of the other way around! Yeah! That’d be kinda cool!
But which OC? It was really pretty much down to 2 obviously – Flick or Trash Panda.
Flick seems to be his ‘personal’ avatar. But my idea was Katia + (OC) shipping just because she should show some respect for a guy who draws her so often. (some of my fav. panels on Prequel were obviously done by Cider). Both are certainly cute enough. Which to choose, which to choose? These decisions can make or break the intent you know!
Flick… alcoholic skinny no-butt or…
Trash Panda – Full butt, full chest full everything?
It really came down to two things. First, Flick is often miserable. Kaz specializes in making things miserable. Did I REALLY want to have him draw Flick getting more miserable? And also the contrast between skinny noodle-armed Katia and round TP seemed better. And so…
(Katia, let it go. You will lose this fight.)
So thanks Cider, for all you do for Prequel! As for your current lack of new stuff, somehow it just doesn’t seem like a very SIGNIFICANT hiatus compared to OTHERS…
And finally, here’s to keeping the dream alive!!!
I’ve had the handle “Blue Dragon” or some variation of it for literally decades. Since people called them “handles”! But in all that time I’ve never, ever had a real avatar/OC. A few weeks back during a stream I commissioned Kazerad to draw “My Weird OC”, describing him as a bit like Dino from the Flintstones.
He’s about the farthest thing from a fearsome dragon as is possible to get. Kaz came up with this, which I colored and shaded today. It’s a simple thing, but having my own Weird OC is just… weird! I like him a lot! Though I identify somewhat as a Furry I guess, I’ve never really had a desire for a personal OC like this, but now that I’ve got one, I’m probably going to have to change my various avatar pics.
Okay, enough blab. Here’s the image:
Blue Dragon getting underfoot of a cat, instead of the other way ‘round.
Mostly I’m just doing these for shading practice which is kinda fun. But poor Kazerad. He keeps trying to de-emphasize Katia’s boobs, and then I come along with my shading and give her DDs. I’m a bad dragon. But happy!
Oh, and here’s Kaz’ original sketch:
I still do things sometimes. Commission from Kaz that I colored, though I think I just asked Evil Quill Weave’s Birthday Party. Leave it to Kaz to turn it into a pathetic scene of sadness and pathos!
Though it could be interpreted as tears of joy at Faceless Mook throwing her a birthday party at all. (Though knowing Kaz, that’s unlikely. More likely she realizes how pathetic that she had to order her minion to throw her a party.)
Original sketch:
During a stream last week, I wanted Kaz to draw me something with Quill + (somebody who is NOT Katia) for Valentines Day. A lot of suggestions were thrown out but Kaz suggested Quill + Quill. Now THERE’S a novel concept! So thus began my favorite so far I think.
Here’s the original I got from Kaz (unfortunately a day after VDay, but so it goes.)
Talk about beautiful! That’s beyond adorable. And yeah, damned sexy too without being explicit. (BTW, on closer inspection I noticed he’d drawn flames around the pupils on the right-hand Quill).
Besides the awesomeness of two amorous lizards staring deeply into each others eyes with Love and Lust, I also particularly liked how it can be interpreted depending on your specific preferences. Right had Q can definitely be interpreted as male if you so choose, Or not! Whichever is just fine!
So I REALLY wanted to do a good job on coloring this. I hope the result is as good as I think it is!
That is, if you don’t’ recognize it, the I Love Lucy heart. Somehow it just seemed appropriate, even in greyscale as it is.
Intent is to show Q+Q at night, though I’m not sure if it translates to a night scene as much as I intended. I also slightly lightened the colors of left-Q. Just seemed appropriate. But regardless, it’s by far the favorite one I’ve done yet. Hope you like too! Lizards in Lust!
