Small update. Between playing card games tonight and going on for longer than expected, the Daedalus pic still isn't ready. I'm posting this right as I got home and I'll be asleep within the hour I'll be focusing on it as much as I can tomorrow and I'll get it done before anything else

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Posting the sketch now since I'm pretty happy with it. I posted it earlier in the discord alongside more WIPs in general. Come check it out discord.gg/wBaqsWEaQy (Gotta advertise the discord server more. Being passive isn't gonna get people to join after all)

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

New WIP. This one probably won't be finished this week but I'm having a lot of fun sketching out this design. Fate has some great servants but Daedalus might be my new favourite in every regard. If I didn't have a Global account already I'd make a JP one just for them.

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

And the other Rodya. I saw a sketch ages ago that did partial colouring/shading similar to this so I tried something similar. Not really happy with either sketch brush in terms of colouring after so I might give up on colour sketches until I can find a good brush that doesn't hate the fill tool.

041

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

For the other Rodion pics I wanted to try a cleaner sketch over the OG. Thought it'd be a good way to "finish" a pic quickly if I wasn't feeling it. It's not as quick as I wanted it'd be and the colours ended up looking bad. Gonna modify the process for the last sketch a little, see if that helps.

031

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Rodion done. Sadly won't be able to fit in a pic of her new ID but just know I'm definitely getting it Day 1. The other Rodya sketches I did will be finished but I want to try something with those. Look forward to it

142

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

And the other two sketches done in time for the Limbus update. I'll be getting through the story update tomorrow so art will be slow. Hopefully I can get at least one done before Rodion's big moment (no I am not coping).

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

New WIP. Next Limbus canto is out soon and I don't have any big ideas currently so I'm just gonna sketch a couple Rodyas and see what comes from that. Even after 3 years I have no idea how people do multiple of these in the same day but I've got a couple more I want to do.

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

That's Anya/Es finished. It was actually done yesterday but I wanted to change my upload times to the morning. Gives me time to make small tweaks and hopefully hit a bigger crowd of people. I don't know how to actually grow this account beyond "keep drawing and hope it gets popular." One day maybe

120

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Okay I dunno if I've caught something or if it's fatigue/burnout but motivation for anything has been low. Here's the full sketch but I'm taking a break for the rest of the day. I'll be sure to lock in tomorrow and get it done ASAP. No compromises

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

New WIP. Took a break over the weekend and wanted to draw the wives again. Sketch isn't done yet and I'm not sure if I'm doing more than that yet. The pose is tricky. If I do drop it I'll draw them in something simpler.

001

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

Nami done. Somehow this was easier than the prior pinups and looks far better. I still want to figure out how to draw pinups and more but at the very least I can say I'm good at paizuri pics.

062

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

New Nami WIP. Haven't drawn her in a bit and I've been getting back into the One piece TCG so... Gonna start posting the full sketches to the discord too. If you wanna see just check my profile or the pinned post for a server link

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

Hibiki/Carol done. I don't expect this to get much traction since it's a niche within another niche but I had fun, might even do more. Next pic I'm gonna be changing up shading a lil. Hopefully it'll look about the same but be much easier to actually shade. The way I do it now is far too tedious

121

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Still making progress but it's been a bit harder to line than I thought. Not gonna bother with when it'll be done since I always underestimate those but I'm happy with it

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

New WIP. Had a bit of trouble with the hands but I'm happy with the rest. Sometimes I forget I can just draw whatever random crossover ideas I have.

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

That's the big changes made. I can't say if they'll lead to much when I've barely been able to get this far with my art, but trying is the only way to know. Still working things out with my art too. Hopefully I'll lock in a style I'm happy with.

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

COMMISSION SHEET! I've cut back on the fluff so there's only 3 tiers. If you still want something in-between I'm sure we can work something out. We also have a discord now! I don't expect much of a community but it's the easiest way to contact me if you do want a commission. discord.gg/wBaqsWEaQy

001

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

That's Mai done. A day later than promised but Sunday had me at my cousin's birthday and it lasted a while. Something like that is more important than hitting hobby deadlines (not that I hit them anyway but still). The big changes are probably coming in the morning. They're close but not done yet.

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Posting a full sketch now since I'm gonna be away from the tablet for a bit tomorrow. There's some variants for this one so look forward to em. I SHOULD still be able to finish them all Sunday but I'll have to lock in with the rest of the pic

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

New WIP. Working on this reminded me just how recent that Hard drive crash was. I thought my last Mai pic was safe but nope. Aiming to finish this by the end of the week but I'm gonna be busy with family visits so it might be a bit longer

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

That's Arabella finished. It was technically finished yesterday but I wanted some time figuring out the sunlight renders and stuff. Only thing I figured out is I don't know how to do all that. Gonna be big changes coming to the account soon. Should be around the time I finish my next pic.

100

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

Update. My output in general's been slowing down a bit but I'm chalking that up to the heatwaves we've had this week. It'll still be a while since I want to properly render this one but I'll try and speed up after.

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

New pic. I'll be genuinely surprised if anyone can guess who this is

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 11/08/2026

It's not much but that's the birthday pic finished. I don't even know if you use Blusky much anymore but Happy birthday @dedalod.bsky.social

142

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Might be a delay on my next pic since I'm making a birthday gift for a friend. Not gonna be posting any WIPs either but just know I'll be working on that starting tomorrow. If I finish it early I'll probably post WIPs for my next pic after that

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

That's Rain Mikamura finished. I don't want to say it often but I think this is my best pic yet. I tried a couple new things when it came to rendering her suit and I'm pretty happy with how it looks. I've still got a long way to go but I'm getting somewhere.

100

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 04/08/2026

Nearly finished with the Rain pic. Only got a little more to do so I'm hoping to get it done by tomorrow. For a pose I struggled to sketch I'm pretty happy with the results so far. Hopefully others will be too

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

New month, new WIP. Posting the full sketch since it's a pose I haven't done before and I could use some feedback. To be honest, I'm actually feeling pretty good about it. Got it done quicker than I thought and I don't think it looks BAD.

021

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

Anya/Es finished. I was trying to focus on shading but I ended up working on lines more. Pretty happy with that but I also don't think I've made much progress with shading still. Sometimes I wish I just knew how to get it looking the way I want.

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

And Es sketched as well. Might redo her face though but we'll see tomorrow

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

Drawing the wives again since I wanna take some time to practice. I still feel a bit lost when it comes to shading anything that isn't skintone so I'm gonna be focusing on that. I'll take any guides that people find useful too.

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

That's Magik done. I had more ideas planned for this like dialogue but the week has been overwhelming for me. Had I known better I would've done this pic later after things had slowed down. I hate that my "big" pics always turn out like this but it still helps highlight stuff I need to work on.

030

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Lil update on the Magik pic. I'm nearly done with the lines but her outfit really is harder to draw than I anticipated even with cutting corners. I'm probably not gonna finish it that soon, mostly because Avatar Legends is out tomorrow but it'll be done by this week guaranteed

031

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

Getting a new pic started. This one might take a bit longer since Magik's tokon design doesn't have many good references and I'm making up some parts.

011

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

Catherine done. Her new swimsuit in Lost stories isn't what I expected from her but I kinda love it. This is a semi-follow up to an older pic I did of her since it's been 5 months since then. Maybe I'll do another one in 4 more months. Kinda amazing how much my art has changed since then.

121

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

New WIP. Slowly getting to where I want to be but I'm probably gonna try more than just pinups after this one.

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Jubilee done. I started trying softer lines again and soft shading for the hair too. The 2nd pic is my usual hair. A comment from my art friend about my lines being "boring" still sticks with me and I still don't know what he meant by that. Any advice or criticism there is appreciated.

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

New Jubilee WIP now we've had a look at her Rivals model. I didn't struggle with this sketch as much as I did the Shiomi one so I think I'm just cursed to never draw Shiomi properly. Trying some new stuff with lines again. Might not be done for release but hopefully the day after by the latest.

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

I really hate that I'm leaving both of my Shiomi pics unfinished but this has been taking too long. I intended to use this for shading/lighting practice but it's taken me 5 whole days just to get this far and 2 of them were spent on lining/coloring her outfit (which isn't even done mind)

110

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

Starting a new sketch. I wanted this to be something I could do quick so I could practice my shading more but it took way too long to actually sketch out (3 days, if you want to be specific). I'll still use it for practice but I really need to figure out how to do this faster

010

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 02/07/2026

Carol done. I don't like my posts swapping between "it's over" and "we're so back" but I'm really struggling to improve despite my efforts. The pics look fine but they're not any better or done faster than my usual. If I'm gonna take this long to make something I want it to look better than this.

041

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 01/07/2026

Lil update. I've been busier this week than I expected so I still need some time to finish these. Maybe I need to do another session of sketch practice since I'm not getting any faster

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 28/06/2026

For the first time in probably ever I've managed to finish some sketches before my estimate. I might make a few touch-ups but either way I'm gonna be starting the lines tomorrow. Look forward to it

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

So between the heatwave and today's thunderstorm I haven't been able to put much of that practice to use quite yet. Only just started on this today if you don't count the sketch I scrapped. I'll try to have this sketched out by Monday

000

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

I scrambled to finish this tonight but that's the sketches done including the request made by @silverray85.bsky.social. Some turned out better than I expected and I'm happy with the progress I've made. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go crash into bed and try to figure out what to draw tomorrow.

041

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 23/06/2026

Quick sketches update. Between going for the collage format and practicing new tech in general it's been taking a bit longer than anticipated. They're coming out well though.

020

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 19/06/2026

That's Tifa paizuri finished. Pretty happy with how it turned out but I want to improve more from here. I'm gonna start on those sketch requests tomorrow. Not sure if I'll do them in separate files or as a collage but now's the time to get your requests in if you haven't.

0111

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

I'll also say that, after this Tifa pic, I'll be doing some practice sketches of various poses. If anyone reading wants to request a pinup sketch of someone then drop a reply. I've got some in mind already but more never hurts.

110

Piloy_BB (COMMS: 0/3) @piloybb.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

Tifa update. Taking this one a little slower since I'm still not feeling 100% yet but it's cooking. I'm still practicing but it's hard to find guides and one artist friend I went to for advice... Let's just say, if I ever get big, I'm gonna do the opposite of him if others approach me for critique.
