Jake Long, a boy of summer

The power of the American Dragon surging through him, Jake's developed impressively -- and I don't just mean his skills. When he's not the dragon, he's become an American hunk.

Next in the Boys of Summer set is none other than Jake Long. Those hands were really hard to put into something even remotely resembling a reasonable position once the jacket came off. Chose the "season 1" style pretty much arbitrarily, even though the Jake in the art this was inspired by looks more based off season 2. I don't really care too much about it, at least in terms of how Jake looks; obviously one of his dragon forms looks better than the other... 

The Boys of Summer

Hunky, handsome, and hotter than the sand on the beach, they've been waiting for this all year. Summer's finally here, and these studs are ready.

Consider it a rework of this old piece from Jhonny-Manic on DeviantArt. Originally I wanted to draw this in 2020, but the season came and went before I even got started. I was reminded of it on and off over the past two years, but this summer was the one where I finally did it (and it still took nearly all season). Don't worry, you'll get a good look at all of the boys up close -- just not in this group shot. Might do some more of these with some different characters if there's interest in it.
