Oh my god bees you can't just present me with such a golden opportunity to ramble about your characters Like I'm gonna be able to pick just ONE
1) Current holder of place one on account of being one big callout made for Me, Specifically: Happy Swindle. Just. Just. HOW did you make a character that appeals entirely to my aesthetic (tall, lanky, Too Many Bones with bonus horns, hooves and tail, and also a frankly adorable tooth gap) while ALSO appealing to a lot of things I really love in a character's personality? I mean I've rambled about him before, but fuck do I love me a conflicted character to whom kindness does not come naturally but who is trying. He's trying, and maybe he kinda sucks at it but he tries so hard to be better and man if that isn't a mood and a half. I love him. I am rooting for him. Please keep me informed of his further adventures, I want to know how he fares. (also that topless, just-outta-bed artwork should be Forbidden he is Too Hot what is this sorcery)
2) Chalawan was my favorite for a long time, because I love both his design and his story. I'm a sucker for retellings of fairy-tales, and for long sparkly noodles, so that checks out. I'm amused by your love of This One Dynamic (powerful man meets headstrong, determined girl, shenanigans ensue) but like- you've explored it in many fun and creative ways, it's always a delight to see what you make.
3) Ayşe is My Girl. I love her so much?? She's so badass, she kicks ass and she takes no shit but she's also caring and kind. She smashed Theo's nose and I am HERE for this. I also really appreciate the thoughtful, respectful way her blindness is portrayed, as well as her relationship to her mother and the people around her. She's just- such a rounded, full character? You can easily believe she exists, she's an entire person and she's such an interesting person. I really love Woven and I'm super excited to see where her story goes.
4) AH! gets a special mention because she cracks me the fuck up every time I see her, but also I love that she's- chaotic neutral, and it shows sometimes. Her backstory is unsettling, and for all she's adorable she's also really- detached? Like she doesn't seem to quite grasp the world around her, for better or worse. It's a really interesting take, for me.
5) Ishavan and Tristan get special mention for just being unfairly pretty. Their more monstruous shapes, that is. Idk man I'm a sucker for your artwork, and I love that "unsettingly long, weird boned monster" thing you got going with a lot of your characters. Tristan especially is My Aesthetic like whoa. Also he needs a hug D:
Anyway I love your characters thank you for giving me a chance to ramble about some of them :p
kdsjhfs ; 0; this makes me so happy to read aaaa Especially your love for Swindle makes me giddy skjhf oh man <3
I love u and I LOV UR CHARACTERS
I'm pretty biased in my love of Mothified! I loved drawing her so damn much aaaa she's such a beautiful little beastie <3
But also--your death gods, the crows. They have such a dark folklore feel to them, their names and roles/stories are mMMM SO DAMN GOOD I kind of would love to do an illustration of all them together. It crossed my mind while I was drawing Moth, and the idea hasn't left my brain since lmao Those ominously named caw dieties have some serious staying power in my brain..!!
Swindle is my son and I am rooting for him, I LOVE HIM what a disaster of a man. Please he needs a hug
And duuuuude I would love to see your take on the death gods someday, holy shit. That would be so many kinds of awesome. Commissioning you for something big is definitely up there on my bucket list of Things To Do When I Have A Steady Income, I love your art so much <3 Hopefully sooner than later! I'm really flattered they stayed with you, though, that's rly cool! I'm pretty proud of their concepts and designs, so it's awesome to hear that others like them too~ And I'm glad you like the names! I had a blast finding names from them with some help from my friend Delta-Hexagon, whom you should check out if you like ominously named characters btw. I think they're pretty good descriptive names, for all they are a pain to actually use :p
