These are pretty oldish cartoony portraits I did of the gang when i initially started using Procreate :’) I never fully finished/posted them because I had the intention of using them when I redid everyone’s character bios, but then I never actually sat and redid their character bios soooooo BEHOLD !! LOL I’ve gotten a few new followers/mutuals, so this seems like a good time to softly begin re-introducing the lads and the menagerie of side hoes/trauma/shenanigans attached to them lmao
But from left to right we haveee✨
Donatello “Donna” aka the most unfortunate failed sacrifice that just wants to be a silly guy and be a good person
The Douche of Pearl Isles aka Sam the Man aka the bastard that people hate to enjoy
Problem Child Damien aka a very pathetic former woodland creature trying to be the villain of his own story
And I believe the weirdest ones survive // You're a trip to them and a vacation to me// And God knows you could be stranger than me // So kiss me like your mirror //Eye me like a queer // Nothing you do could freak me out✨💕
Life is quasi better, Doja dropped another album that gives me big Donna thots, and so I continue to be very much attached to these two freaks 😌😌😌
Was this 🤏🏻 close to giving up on this months ago but the power of fictional birthdays conquers all
It’s my good lady wife Nadia’s birthday and while women may not be the cure for depression, drawing beautiful women more beautiful helps the medicine go down lmao 🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️ not perfect by ANY means but this was fun to do and I’m pleased enough to post sooo nyheheh
Uncensored closeups & alt background and censor under cut (for now LOL)✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨
It’s very obvious which details i said fuck it to because of the layout LMAO
I didnt know what to do for a censor & background, so another option was Donna being a little gremlin and just transparent lmfao
The Courtiers as a random assortment of stim/fidget toys that have their vibes and or I can see them using🤲✨
This is SUPER self-indulgent and tailor-made for me by me, BUT I was scrolling an online shop looking at some for myself and couldn't help but assign some to the courtiers hdfighfd (I am a courtier stan first, human second I guess) Again, some of these are just based on vibes alone, but I did try to pick some I can see them actually wanting to use :3c
Valdemar
First one is obviously based on vibes and vibes alone idfhgifd BUT I think Valdemar constantly needs to be doing something with their hands, and I think the tiny little critter balls are perfect as you can pull on their little arms or even just roll them around for peak hand feelings hehe
I think they would handle the plague beetles in a similar manner tbh; you constantly have to be moving your hands to catch them when handling a beetle + their little feet scurrying would be great for Valdemar :3
Volta
I think any chew jewelry would be very ideal for Volta; she needs to sink her teeth into something. that something being a squishy fake cookie could do the job before she really needs to start biting into something dfighfid (she's probably just consumed these toys though in a blind moment)
Same sorta logic goes for the putty; like Valdemar, Volta needs something to do with her hands (besides nervously wringing them together), and the food smells can either be slightly comforting or just motivating (depending on where in the timeline she's at lmao)
The others (Vulgora, Vlastomil, and Valerius) are undercut :3
Vulgora
Vulgora definitely needs something that can withstand their just sheer fucking grip lmao Very cool sensation with the metal chain tangle, and it also just looks edgier than a lot of the other tangle options lmao they stim with a THREAT
they can pretend they're crushing Lucio instead of that little angry dude in their hands uwu or anyone that really pisses them off (which is..... everyone..... except maybe Volta)
Vlastomil
these are..... pretty obvious LMAO anything relatively wormy to keep his hands/mind preoccupied. he truly doesn't care about what anyone is saying ever unless it's about his babies, so he's gotta keep those weird (loving) long hands busy
I liked the desk one particularly, I feel like he would have that like in his office lmao
Valerius
Personal HC that Valerius has a really bad habit of pulling his hair while stressed/disassociating (as well as biting his nails/cuticles), so he'd need something that literally would emulate that for him when he's super stressed out/anxious from work.
I like the idea of him keeping the lamb on his desk and just stabbing it whenever he gets overwhelmed or angry over Lucio's incompetence <3
Gillian Flynn / Unknown / @ traumacure / Sylvia Plath / Joë Bousquet / David Foster Wallace / Lyric Hunter "A Garden" / Carmen Maria Machado / Frank O'Hara / Carmen Maria Machado
A little updated headshot for Don Don, I’ve only been in the mood to draw silly portraits like this and then fuck around with the layers lmfao been rotating them so much in my mind but haven’t found the brains to put thoughts into words, but S O O N. Anyway, have mood ring hair alts to go with because I must emphasize they have the RANGE
^ including the “high out of their mind”/sub space hair because it’s been a minute lmfao
That’s Mister Santa Claus if you’re naughty—and to him, you’ve all been naughty 🖤
Fun fact: I started this last year exactly, got distracted by Life, and then abandoned it LMAO BUT it’s Sam’s birthday and I’m celebrating Christmas with my family this weekend so the holiday spirit is still here in this house so WOE hot old man be upon thee 😌
The Duke enjoys some time to refresh himself before what must be a very arduous day ahead of him
I literally. Just wanted to draw Sam’s ass LMFAO I’m forcing myself to finish a buncha WIPS I got far with but lost steam for :’) not perfect, but I think i got the moodyness i wanted AND I’m content with his cheeks lmfao
Special close up undercut :3
Was torn between a bite or a handprint, but I think a bite is more fitting lmfaooo
I meant to have this done for Father's Day but wound up rotting a bit instead (lol) BUT I finally finished this sketch of Antony and I'm p pleased with how it turned out, especially his face :3 but I think it's important I show the vast variety of daddies, not just Sam's very stereotypical Big Bad Daddy persona lolol
