Guess who my favorite character is in the apollo justice trilogy ooohhh I wonder wh
Also i didnt mean to make him so sparkly.. I was trying for a rock chic look and then he became sparkly. He looks like barbie in that one movie idr but it was the one abt fashion and she was super sparkly...
Wo shading + the lines bc i actually like how i did the lines this time
And the turnabout corner experience
And 10 rmb market chicken apollo... he literally looks like torchic look at my lawyer dawg im being defended by a chicken nugget
3rd img is kinda chopped bc i drew it months ago when i was lwk burntout but still including it bc it was the first drawing i did of this au... Franny leads for standard and klavier leads for latin.. takes place during aa2

Happy apollo justice timeline!! I was thinking of holding onto this until turnabout serenade timeline but then realized thatd be in july and hell nah 🔥 first full color comic page in. Idk how long. But it feels good to actually accomplish smth and see how my comic style has changed
Yapping + doodle under cut
Notes abt the comic/paneling/design/wtv:
- klavier's first box is pink, turns dark purple, then turns pink/warm orange again at the end. Reconciliation of "both sides" of klavier ie how he was always genuine and that he was always himself
- the bottom panel is supposed to be shaped like a guitar ie klavier's guitar that caught on fire
- fire for passion/emotion, like how a physical object (guitar) cant contain the full strength of passion resulting in burning
Abt gavins + how it ties to the comic:
I feel like a lot of ppl(? Idk my perception is warped bc i dont browse a lot) like to use this part of turnabout serenade to draw kristoph and klavier parallels. And on a surface level i can see where it's coming from but to me it's like.. well yes but actually no
Bc kristoph would never let someone see him as smth less than perfect(?) Or like Kristoph always controls everything abt his perception
He's polite and handsome and cool! Someone anyone would admire or want to work for, and only he knows the things he says are passive aggressive insults. But it just flies by bc everyone is smitten by his image
While klavier doesnt necessarily to hide his "imperfections" (embarrassment and anger isnt the same as hiding) He lets himself be mad and be seen when he's mad. Hes not worried abt "losing control" bc to him the pursuit of music or truth is tantamount and everything else is secondary. He's just himself, and if he's angry for missing a cue then he's angry. He doesnt try to hide or placate or fake his emotions
So the fact that klavier let himself be seen by apollo and trucy when he was less than perfect/not matching w his image is perfectly telling of how unlike kristoph he is
This is all just my reading anyways it's probably not supposed to be read into that much but idc 🔥
And thats why in the comic apollo is like i like this honest prosecutor gavin bc 1. Unreliable narrator apollo (klavier was always klavier. He wasnt trying to be smth else) and 2. it's like a further confirmation that klavier is not kristoph, klavier is his own person. And maybe that person is someone worth looking twice at yknow.. The smoke from the fire makes hearts too btw lmfao. Me when im on the nose. This isnt necessarily klapollo in the sense that it's romance being depicted but it was drawn and written w a klapollo heart so be free
Lines + doodles (istg i had more art but ig not.. finals season is upon me and it's beating me pretty hard ngl)
