月のエロイラスト、「草原の大王の敗北」（テキスト無し版）/MONTHLY NAUGHTY, "THE DEFEAT OF THE GREAT PLAINS KING " (no-text ver.) (Pixiv Fanbox)

と、言うことで、今月のエロイラスト、「草原の大王の敗北」（テキスト無し版）です。テキスト有り版は後日公開します。えーと、今回はモンゴルっぽい甲冑を描きたかったわけです。主人公が甲冑を着たまま、最初から最後までイロイロな目に遭わされてしまう、という漫画を描きたいのですが、さすがにマンパワーが足りないのです……(笑)。いつの日にか……。

それと、今月のエロイラスト、もう1点は、7月13日に開催される「にちょけっと」用に描いた、髭面体育教師・須藤先生の全身図です。完全な描き下ろしではなくて、既存のイラストに下半身を描き足したものです。「にちょけっと」はホントに最終ギリギリにお声がけ頂いたので……何も準備できてないです(笑)。※にちょけっとはゲイイベント「二丁目祭」の一環で行われる同人誌即売イベントです。

さらに、X（Twitter）などのSNSにも投稿したのですが、市川の近況報告……。いや、もう、ホントにイロイロなのです。本当に昨日、一昨日ぐらいからようやく床上げ出来た感じで……。いまだに体調も悪いです。それとウチの親の介護！いつか来るとは覚悟してたんですけど、遂に本格的に来たか！という感じです。言い訳になってしまって申し訳ないのですが、現在、ほぼ毎週のように病院に行き、ウチの親を担当する介護チームと面談して……というようなことを繰り返しています。全然精神的に落ち着かない～～～(汗)。そんなこんながありまして、「6月から漫画描く！」というお約束守れなくて本当に本当に本当にごめんなさい。7月から、とはお約束できないかもですが、7月以降少しずつ新作漫画を描いていければ、と思っています。

MONTHLY NAUGHTY, "THE DEFEAT OF THE GREAT PLAINS KING " (no-text ver.)

So, here is this month's MONTHLY NAUGHTY illustration, "THE DEFEAT OF THE GREAT PLAINS KING" (no-text version). The version with text will be released later. Well, this time I wanted to draw armor that looks Mongolian. Honestly, I really want to create a manga where the protagonist, wearing this armor, goes through various ORDEALS from start to finish, but unfortunately, I don't have enough manpower!!! Yes! Someday...!!! SOMEDAY!!!

Additionally, the other MONTHLY NAUGHTY illustration for this month is a full-body drawing of the bearded P.E. teacher, Sudou-sensei. I drew this illustration for "Nicho-ket," an event to be held on July 13, 2024. It's not a completely new drawing; I added the lower body to an existing illustration. Ah... I was invited to "Nicho-ket" at the very last minute, so I couldn't prepare anything! What should I do???? LOL

*Nicho-ket is a doujinshi event held as part of the gay pride event, "Nichome Matsuri Festival," in Shinjuku's gay district.

Moreover, I also added my recent update that I posted on SNS such as X (Twitter). Well, there's really been a lot going on. Honestly, it feels like I just got back on my feet yesterday or the day before... I'm still not in great health. Also, there's taking care of my mother's care needs! I was prepared for this day to come eventually, but it seems it HAS finally come in earnest. I apologize for making excuses, but right now, I'm almost weekly going to the hospital, having meetings with the caregiving team for her... and repeating this routine. Because of this, I'm not mentally settled at all~~~ (sweat). With all that said, I'm really, really, really sorry I couldn't keep my promise to start drawing new manga from June. I can't promise that I will start from July, but I hope to start creating new manga little by little after July.
