Boy, this is embarrassing. I am seeing that this is literally my first blog entry in one whole year. Admittedly, it has been a crazy year and also a very unfortunately slow year for new Bu art. This year included me getting married and getting to enjoy a nice honeymoon, some really pleasant memories in an era where good memories aren’t always in abundance. This was quite honestly my first real trip beyond my general area in a couple years thanks to pandemic stuff. With that and home ownership, commissions have been very light. Now that the holidays are ending and the year is coming to a close, I am resolving to make 2024 a bigger year for Bu art than last year. I do have SOME new stuff, so I’ll take a moment to quickly show them off before 2023 is gone for good!
First up is last year’s holiday card made by Neekko!
Happy holidays! I believe this card was not ready for posting on here when I did the holiday blog entry in 2022, so now is as good a time as any for me to put it in! Neek had a very smart idea that Bu would be foolish enough to do the ol’ tongue on a metal pole routine if he thought it was a delicious snack. It was not, of course, but one can only hope he’ll actually learn from this experience (he won’t). I still think this one turned out wonderful and it’s very hilarious. x3 Thanks to Neek for always doing the heavy lifting every year with our holiday cards. We’ve consistently done it every holiday season for over a decade and I have hopes we won’t be stopping any time soon.
Next up is a recent commission from Shenanigan!
A samurai Bu theme! I’ve done the samurai Bu idea before but it never gets old because I will always dig the look. Shen always gives me the best Bu art and I continue to enjoy them as the years go by. This one is beautiful and I love Bu’s face here. One can hope that Shen and I work together again soon and I’m sure I’ll find time to get more samurai Bu commissions in the future, that can be sure. A huge thanks to Shen as always for being one of the most dependable and talented artists I’ve worked with for all these years. <3
Finally, here’s a new commission I got from DE4THPUNCH!
A new Bu-man commission incoming! I’ve also enjoyed the few times DE4THPUNCH and I have been able to work together. This time I was looking for an epic heroic Bu-man pose and some of my recent obsessions have made it easy for me to come up with a dynamic pose for this commission. Big thanks to DE4THPUNCH for delivering a real knockout commission for me! <333
That’s all I’ll do for this time. I’m ashamed to let my Bu blog fall into such disarray and neglect, but I’m hoping I can make more time for it in the coming months. I do have a few other commissions I have not yet posted on here that I may try to put on here in January. >:3 We shall see what happens. Anyways, thanks to anyone and everyone that continues to care enough about my little OC and all his wild misadventures. I hope you have a wonderful new year and an exciting and safe time in 2024!
