The beach has a clothing-optional policy that's embraced by many of the local vendors. And while Juno's comfortably in her element, it takes more convincing to get Petra to shed her clothes outside. Especially when it extends into an unplanned shopping trip.

Petra hasn't had the spotlight in a while, even though I think about her all the time -- you can see some of her earlier appearances on FA and e621. Despite their different backgrounds and Juno's recurrent urges to push the civet out of her comfort zone, the two are pretty much best friends, and even the tension of some unexpectedly public exposure won't wear on that too much.

If you missed it, there are some WIPs for this piece a couple posts back!

This is awesome! I love the variety of body types and attitudes towards nudity here!

OnyxLupine

Casual nudity is definitely one of my favorite thing in settings - you and other artists do it really well ^.^

Hopefully she does come out of her shell! After all, if she and Mazia share the same universe (maybe different time frames), she should know her people's culture isn't necessarily clothing-centric either! ;) Lovely work!

This almost looks like another artists’ rendition of your OC’s. Slightly different. Looks like Major Friedkin in the back.

I love this so much!! The atmosphere is so inviting, I wish I could step into this scene with them! I love your attention to detail too, and the peek of monstera! 😍

Kiko

Wonderful work

You're spoiling us, Kal! It's as if we're standing right there, just taking in the scene at the market ourselves. It's really nice to see Petra and Juno again, especially Juno :D. Though I'm rather biased in that department.

Great work, always love seeing Juno in the background. Wish I got around as much as she does. ^^

I love the way you colored this one. For me it really captures the beautiful light you get during the hour leading up to sunset at the beach. I'm curious about their dynamic here. Have Juno's efforts to expand Petra's comfort zone been paying off, even if it annoys her at the time? Also, it's fun to see one of your bear gals pop up again.

For the bear, cameo has to do until I can give her full piece of her own. Which I would love to do... Even if she doesn't always share Juno's enthusiasm, Petra is very appreciative of her friendship and the regular excuses to get out and about. I think she'll find a way to get past the initial tension of the moment and actually enjoy herself.

Kalahari

It would be pretty cool to have a nude beach just a stone's throw away...

Kalahari

Juno seems to liven up the environment, so I'm right there with you. She might even be a positive influence on Petra with that energy.

Kalahari

I'm working on my plant repertoire, so Monstera shows up a lot at the moment >.>

Kalahari

It's been a year of some intensive practice, so if it doesn't quite look like my regular style I'm not disappointed. And hopefully I'm heading in a positive direction.

This is a theme I wanted to explore for a long time, and it wasn't really until I did "Open Air Market" that I feel like I found my direction with it.

Kalahari

Oh yeah, it's a lot of fun populating these more public scenes with BG characters! (accidentally replied to the post instead of you >.>)

Petra just looks so different between here and Beach Ball. (OMG! Just looked it up. I Can’t believe that was FIVE YEARS AGO! WTH?!?)

patient_zaero

That’s exactly what it’s about. Everyone’s different. There’s no such thing as a perfect body. (And if it is, it’s different for each person. Just look at the Discord preferences/arguments just on boob size, alone!)

Is that the same backpack Juno has been using since 2017? At least it seems to be the same model :). And she changed some of the decorations.

Kalahari

It sure is. Must be pretty well made that it hasn't worn out yet o.o

Tygepc

Good packs are. I've been using my since 2016. (Not trying to make it a competition. lol. Good packs are ones to hold on to!

Tygepc

Absolutely fantastic work! This is amazing! I love the way you put more into your nudist district with every piece. It looks so good. Juno and Petra are amazing. It's always great to see how your art keeps getting better and better with each release. Man, Petra does not look happy to be there. I wonder what else is going on in their relationship beyond this spat. Good luck to them.

LabFox

I absolutely agree. My previous backpack lasted for over ten years. Towards the end of its lifetime, it was showing wear of course, particularly on the inside, and eventually, one of the shoulder straps broke. So I had to get a new one - same brand, bigger model :).

Bex

"Yee" 😆

Petra is always fun to see =3
