Still in the thinking thoughts stage with the chłopomania story... The guys are more straightforward design wise because i am, as previously stated, shamelessly reskinning my existing ocs until they look distinct enough (main problems are forcing myself to stick to the facial hair on blue guy/to decide how exactly it should look since i have little experience drawing it and trying to make red guy accurate and not overindulging my design biases). The girls are harder because 1. They both have long dark braids so i cant rely on hair as much as i normally would, same for clothes although i certainly can get creative once i actually pick a time and place 2. I am designing green girl from scratch and significantly reimagining an existing oc for purple girl so there's more choices to make and most of all 3. I fell back on a lot of my favourite girldesign choices with green girl before adding purple girl to the story and ended up with a "well one of us has to change" situation. So now rather than distinguishing them from their original designs, like with the boys, it's about distinguishing them from each other. Anyway green girl is main character, purple girl is blue guy's sister and red guy is their family's farmhand
A few sketches for the protag of my newest story idea. Not letting you see the other characters yet because they're shameless reskins of my existing ocs and i need to make them more distinct before they see the light of day 😔
The wind sound huffed, once, and then the moist thud jolted us, the sound of a watermelon breaking open

Jsyk i didnt stop there i kept drawing more dress danatole content but it got too smutty for my current tolerance lvl so i cant post it. You're just gonna have to see it in your mind's eye
Just stopped by to tell you I absolutely adore the way you draw Dolokhov and also,,,, your Thoughts on the poor man/rich man dynamic,,,,you Understand It as always
OH TO HEAR IT FROM THE WAP CLASS DYNAMICS UNDERSTANDER... thank you thank you i love violently envious dolokhov i think he makes anatole blow him on the living room couch of the kuragin residence for that power high
i LOVE how you draw anatole!! your style suits him so well, he's such a barbie boy..
TEEHEE THANKS!! he IS my little doll... drawing him is kind of a delicate balance because i DO want a feminine edge to him (bc of his notably big pretty eyes/his generally being referred to as beautiful/his representing the foppish slightly dandyish dare i say metrosexual stereotype of the era/and most of all because of the common observation that straight women often find slightly fem guys attractive) but i dont wanna overshoot it and lose his masculine side either. so i'm glad to hear it resonates with ppl
anyway i thought about drawing barbie anatole -> i remembered the barbie movie rollerskating outfits -> remembered those slutty 80s rollerskating fits ppl drool over -> this
One more to go with my comic from earlier! Fun fact i initially headcanoned fedya to be totally vanilla in the sheets because he's such a freak in the streets. But then i found the violently envious psychosexual urges too appealing a concept to throw out
