I was obviously sketching from reference here. Clearly the focus is on Nitz’s rear. Combined with her legs she definitely has a certain appeal. I also appreciate opportunities to draw pinups because I feel I am notoriously bad with them, so I appreciate the practice.

She is definitely a character I really enjoy drawing, so I expect I’ll do more of these. Beyond that, I really am going to try to set a goal for 2026 of doing a sketchbook post every week. Ideally, not all of them would be pinups, but if it takes that to motivate me then more pinups it is. Might also be fun to draw more explicit ones as well, as so far the only one I drew recently was Briar.

Anyway, if you are interested in supporting what I do, you can do so through donations on Ko-Fi. I also take commissions.

It’s a bit rough and there are elements I think I would change upon further revision, but it’s more about finishing work than anything else for me, right now.

Anyway, as for the inspiration, Kevin had the audacity to design a sweet goblin girl character, so I decided to draw Nitz again, who is decidedly less sweet. I think Kevin and I have had a bit of a back and forth and have been creatively in-sync, which certainly helps. He does something, I decide to do it, too. He’s a good friend.

But enough about good friends, like take a moment and appreciate bad girls. I still very much would like to do a Nitz story sometime, but I don’t see that happening anytime soon. In the meantime, the pinups are going to be it for now. Of course if anyone wants to draw Nitz the Goblin, go for it. It’s been a while since I received fan art. Just drop me a link in the comments or contact me.

Also, here is a larger resolution version of her for your viewing pleasure.

Anyway, not much else to say. Nitz is a fun character to draw.

The post 2025 Sketchbook #033 – Nitz the Huntress appeared first on hpkomics.com.

Nitz was a character developed for a potential adult-oriented comedy comic, something that combined monster hunting, fantasy settings, and goofy gags involving nudity and that sort of thing. The aim was something that could be seen in something like Heavy Metal or other mature reader anthologies. Nothing too extreme, just goofy, sexy fun.

Technically, she occupies the same setting as Fang, the character from Fang of Triseria. Also Leezle – can’t forget Leezle.

The setting is a kind of take on epic fantasy on my end, where there are numerous ages and cultures. Different stories focusing on different angles would emerge. Fang of Triseria is only one story within the setting. Leezle has had an overarching role over centuries. Nitz’s stories would be their own thing, less focused on larger fantasy storytelling, but still of the world.

There isn’t much else to discuss here. I have some more adult-oriented illustrations of her for character design and concept work. Nothing I feel like posting here. Maybe one day I’ll find a location where I am comfortable posting these things. Maybe as an incentive for supporting my illustration work. Let me know if you want to see more, or are clamoring for the NSFW material.
