Welcome back, everybody! It’s now the year Two-Thousand-and-One-Zero, i.e. 2010, and we shall start off very simple. Two brand new commissions from two brand new awesome artists. One of them maaaay or may not be porny. Okay… it is. >_>

The subjects for Bu today – Gninrom and Erik Von Lehmann! Both wonderful, and extra friendly personalities are pretty new for me. Just one Bu from each!

Oh boy! lol This is something else. It was the hardest to figure out what I should do with Bu here. I decided I wanted to play off of Bu making himself comfortable ANYWHERE he wants to be. Which would cause much embarrassment to Human Bu. So Gnin and I imagined that his human for went out for some very authentic Japanese cuisine and… well night happened to creep in and I guess Dragon-Bu was feeling very excited tonight!It’s corny and campy, but it’s fun.

The pose really grew on me and the muscles turned out very nice. The legs, feet, and nipples are some of my favorite elements here, and the background is probably also one of the most detailed ones I’ve ever gotten. And don’t get me started on the tail! lol It’s become a Bu standard when he acts like this, isn’t it? >:3 He went deep today. At this moment, it is viewable as the W.I.P, backgroundless, on Y!, HERE!

Lots of hard work and very timely and communicative, I am more than appreciative of that! It’s excellent, I really do hope to being more of Gnin‘s iteration of Bu again someday in 2010. Never hurts to stick with the nice guys and it goes double when they are equally that talented. :3

And next we have another very special artist bring on the Bu!

Lol. I must laugh at the thumbnail. Seems to focus on Bu’s physique more than anything. But this picture I really appreciated. It’s a very different piece for Bu. The artist himself seems to have a lot of artistic inspiration from some classic styles, notably to me, Fist of the North Star. Awesome stuff. I wanted a piece of that! I am glad I had the chance too. I’ve known of Erik‘s art a loooong time ago, and it was great to see how much has changed for the better in his style and dynamic images when I found him again. And not only that, but damn, fast results to boot. I never make it a point to care about how fast or slow an artist is, but this was only days of waiting. Very cool.

He took a few interesting liberties with Bu, notably the markings on him, and the bracelets/necklace. Also he looks simply like an evil person! It’s offically villian-Bu. Haha.  Really though, it’s dark, but quite beautiful. Certain to be a favorite for me in terms of really taking Bu and changing him to the artist’s style entirely and it working too. You can see it HERE!

So there we go, two very different images from two exceptionally talented and friendly people. Not too many things to show besides that. I think it’s great to start of the new year short and sweet! Hopefully as the year goes on, we will continue to see new and awesome Bu pics! Thanks again for stopping by!
