Three shots of a purple-suited white and cream tanuki. He is playing a guitar, singing into a microphone, and staring grumpily at the viewer.

One of the first ref sheets I got for Kentaro! This was when I preeetty much solidified his design, save for the guitar, which became more leaf-shaped later. The golden leaf came later too. I still use the grumpy face a lot for things. #KentaroArt #RefSheet #Tanuki #Showman

A big tanuki and an even bigger fox are enjoying time in a hot spring. Ken is singing while Yusuke simply enjoys hearing him.

After creating Ken, @wyattdarat.bsky.social wanted to make a partner for him that also works in the circus. Meet his kitsune, Yusuke, who is a massive fomx who helps with stage stuff. Lots of relaxation time together, of course. #kentaroart #hyper #buff #belly #fat

A big showman tanuki is showing off a bit of size to the audience. He is grinning mischievously while his huge cock flops out. Ken is ready for you.

We're starting to see a solidified design for Ken by this point. Still a few changes to come from this point, but this is pretty much how he looks as usual, aside from a more purple hat. Even had his starry eyes at this point. #kentaroart #hyper #shortstack #tanuki

A short, bulky tanuki sings into a mic while performing for an audience. He is wearing a corset-like outfit and has his balls hanging out. One of Kentaro's first performance pics.

Was still experimenting with colors for Ken at this point. Got a few sketches from @joveejovee.bsky.social centering around various things and I wanted to get a more "adult" outfit for Ken's adult shows. Threw some flat colors on the sketch myself~. #kentaroart #hyper #shortstack #tanuki

A tanuki is grinning at the viewer and motioning them to come closer while he dances and performs.

Second picture ever of Ken, racc wanted to put some art out there of him as well. Had to get more of him after Bobert did so well. A few more things changed of course, especially the hat. #kentaroart #hyper #tanuki

A big white and tan tanuki dons a suit of purple and gold. Kentaro is a tanuki and a showman, but he is also a psychopomp (something like the Grim Reaper) who entertains people and helps lost souls move on.

Well, this is it--I officially made Kentaro back in April of 2019 inspired by Avantasia (specifically "Toy Master"). He was originally going to be a toy maker, but things evolved into a broader sense of entertainment. Bobert drew out my design #kentaroart #hyper #tanuki

A massive tanuki is relaxing in his green room after his show. He has invited a VIP, attuning to their desires of him being enormous and hyper-sized. Kentaro is happy to oblige, along with some delicious treats to enjoy through the night. Hope you're ready.

Welcome to my green room! Yes, it's green~. I hope you enjoyed the show--you must be the VIP for the night. You have some... mmph... delightful desires. Don't worry about the suit--I have plenty of them. Come, we have a long, wondrous night ahead. #kentaroart #hyper #buff

A big tanuki is looking rather inviting in many different ways. Why don't you join him? I'm sure Kentaro will take care of you. Art by Bobert!

And of course, the (not so) secret NSFW version~. |3 #kentaroart #hyper #tanuki #balls
