The Byronic Hero Bracket: Qualifying Round Batch G #11
Billy Butcher from The Boys vs. Bart Simpson from The Simpsons
Reasons under the cut (spoilers for both)
(All sources from TV Tropes)
Billy Butcher:
Billy Butcher. Billy is a violent Vigilante Man, with a jaded look in life, who struggles a lot with own personal integrity. On one hand, he genuinely tries to be a better person and a good father figure to Ryan, loathes himself for being immoral and violent, but at the same time he knows this is his very nature. Butcher recognizes that the Supes are people just as much everyone else, but he is still determined to take them down, even if it means breaking the law and manipulating people he cares about. It also helps that he is an attractive man wearing a Badass Longcoat.
Bart Simpson:
Bart Simpson is a cynical rebel who has far more potential than he's given credit for, but with his teachers and parents showing him little-to-no faith or support when he was little, he decided to take pride in his status as an underachieving bad boy. However, there are moments when his mask slips and he becomes very angst-ridden over his own failings.
This was an assignment from Character Design Class where we had to take a crack at doing a turnaround sheet of Bart Simpson by only using the 3/4 view drawing from the official turnaround sheet
And let me tell you about the official character sheet we referenced:
it's kinda weird and inconsistent and definitely from the early days of the series (sort of the reason as to why we were given this assignment, to "correct" this sheet)
Because Bart is such a weird shape, I went so far as to draw out a messy proportion analysis of me trying to draw him by eye with zero tracing
By doing this I could get a feel for what my drawing habits and biases are. Apparently I have a tendency to draw things thinner than what they're supposed to be 🤔
Also let me tell you, I've done a couple turnaround sheets before of my own characters but it was a BITCH trying to get the front view to look right.
