Frequent Strongmad

Posting Strongmad/Equikat on a frequent basis. As frequent as I can manage.

I post Strongmad on a frequent basis. Feel free to submit requests (you may include appearance headcanons as well if they differ from mine)! I'm open to most things as long as its safe for Tumblr. Feel free to block the tag " #not freqsm " if you want to cull any posts that aren't Frequent Strongmad, I'm going to try not to post anything but them here however.

More info under the cut.

This blog is for me to practice drawing, especially since I struggle to draw Equius despite him being my favorite Homestuck character. And of course its also to give Strongmad some love. I may experiment with styles.

To find a specific Freqeunt Strongmad post, use the tag " #freqsm X " with the X replaced with a number.

Hey! I'm away from my house for a week so my posting may slow temporarily, but I will TRY to keep up a good frequency, even if its simple doodles. Feel free to send in requests, it can help me by not needing to think of ideas...

Post 5 - Eyes

The concept of them having eyes that are actually deeply colored to their blood mostly came to me from the Fruity Rumpus result for equikat which says "HIS EYES... THEY'RE SO BLUE..." and it personally drives me insane. I think Karkat would get black contacts to muddy the waters further but I imagine you can't see the color unless you're alarmingly close.

Post 3 - Bodies (Headcanon Details Below)

My personal headcanons for Eq and KK are kinda variable but this is the general vibe. I personally think its more fun if Eq looks more "clearly in shape" than outright buff because it makes his strength more exaggerated in comparison. And KK I have always seen as fat, I think its cute to imagine Karkat being shocked that Equius is able to pick him up and carry him around like he's made of feathers.

They both have stretch marks. Karkat's are by virtue of being plus sized, I have those as well. But Equius' stretch marks come from him growing so fast. I imagine he just became that very fit form rather quickly, looking older than his peers even when they were in the game at 13 (All art of Karkat and Equius on this blog has them as adults unless stated otherwise). Because he grew so fast, its left stretch marks. Equius having them like Karkat made KK feel less self-conscious abour his own stretch marks.

Also I just choose when trolls have nipples at random. And usually I don't draw them because I am bad at placing and drawing nipples. So usually if they have nipples its in my written works.
