First one is Alvin pre-transition as she looked during the production of Sludgefest in 2015. She wasn't out publicly yet (but has recently come out to her family) and has become increasingly reclusive since Y2K. The Seville siblings decided not to use any recent pictures of themselves for Sludgefest and decided to use an edit of the cover art of Chipmunk Punk instead. The other sketch on that page is of Alice during her downward depressive spiral that eventually led to producing Slurmfest.
The other sketches are of Alice after Slurmfest, deciding to completely embrace her trashed reputation, leaning into her love of horror movies to mold herself into a boogyman figure.
I realized I never had one of these kinds of pics of these guys, so I fixed that.
Write some descriptions? Sure, you got it. A history lesson? No? Well, you're getting it anyway because I watched the whole 80's series on the internet archive and I used it as the continuity here. It is an unhinged nugget show.
This ain't exactly spoilers for anything we got planned since this is just some basic background info on these three nuggets n a bit about their history.
Alice Seville
The chipmunk formerly known as Alvin. An impulsive, eccentric, flamboyant, trashy, abrasive diva. She's the lead singer and plays guitar and the harmonica. She also knows how to play keyboards. She's known for her dance moves, her attitude, and her controversial drug and alcohol-fueled antics. Her favorite movies are Pink Flamingos, Rocky Horror Picture Show, and Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
A Brief History
Born as Alvin in 1972 (despite also existing in 1958 somehow), her and her brothers were adopted by David Seville Jr. Despite the fact that Dave's landlord Evel Guy Landlorde (they never named that character so I named him. Hope you like it!) was trying to murder the Chipmunks due to his policy against pets, they would go on to becoming childhood stars in their band Alvin and the Chipmunks for 20 years from 1980-2000 with Dave as their manager. Nobody knows how they didn't age during that entire time. Curious.
Throughout this 20-year stretch of their career, they released dozens of albums and starred in an 8-season long show and 3 movies loosely based on some of their experiences and also movies they liked. Why? Because they couldn't think of anything better to do. Regardless, it was incredibly successful. They released their first album Chipmunk Punk in 1980 (despite, somehow, their first song being Witch Doctor in 1958). Also in 1980 Alvin gifted her favorite harmonica to a sickly fan for Christmas.
In 1983, Alvin and her brothers were abducted by Uncle Harry, who faked being the uncle of the Seville siblings to profit off of them by booking dangerous and outrageous gigs. In 1987, they were manipulated into illicit diamond trafficing by Klaus and Claudia Furschtein and escaped being taken to their private island. In 1990, the Seville siblings first smoked weed after filming that anti-drug PSA with Michelangelo. In 1993, Alice denied rumors that her friend Michael Jackson ever abused her, which she maintains to this day.
In 1994, Alvin started hanging out with a gang of bullies known as the Monster Club, who manipulated Alvin into becoming a bully herself. Her selfish behavior got to the point where she became cruel. Thankfully, on Halloween her brothers helped get her away from that crowd and back on track, making amends with some of her bullying victims. This behavior didn't stop entirely though. In 1995, Alvin committed breaking and entering as well as vandalism to sabotage Easter because he felt entitled to being the Easter Bunny. Yeah. So then Alvin had to do community service to make up for all the damages she caused.
After suddenly starting to age again after Y2K somehow, the group had a series of live action Hollywood movies made of them (but they didn't star in them) to keep interest in them alive and to keep themselves afloat during their hiatus out of the public eye. Alvin was having major mood swings and hated how her body was changing, but didn't know exactly why yet.
In 2015 they released the film the Road Chip and started a new CGI show that they voiced and wrote. It lasted 5 seasons. Also in 2015, Alvin came out to her family as Alice. They weren't surprised to learn that she was trans, instead finding that it "explains everything, particularly all the crossdressing", and they're fully supportive.
Earlier in 2015, she took LSD and came up with the idea for their masterpiece 2-volume album Sludgefest, and the idea to start a new band - Chipmunks on 16-Speed - to help differentiate their new trippy, sludgy, adult-oriented content from their old kid-friendly content. Both volumes of Sludgefest were released in November. While this move was successful, especially with the stoner crowd and many music critics, Alice became a controversial figure. Living a reclusive life during her transition, wild rumors spread - that she's addicted to literally every drug ever, that she was in a relationship with and beat up Brittany Miller (despite Brittany being stronger than Alice), that she sleeps in an oxygen chamber, that she's in an incestuous relationship with Simon, that she died and was replaced with a doppelganger, and so on. She doesn't care about these rumors, thinking they're either ridiculous, cool, or ridiculously cool.
Once fully back in the spotlight in the 2020s, Alice would become even more controversial for her drunken/drugged-up antics on stage, her lack of modesty and her tendency to let groupies fuck her. Especially controversial is her rude comments about others, such as multi-millionaire online influencer and activist Uncle Harry, US President Evel Landlorde, and anything and anyone else she finds stupid and prudish. This would land her a big fat cancellation, which lead to the Sevilles, including Dave this time, to drop acid, which resulted in the creation of their most recent album:
A sarcastic but caring scientific genius, and Alice's self-appointed "wrangler". He's the bass player and backup singer, and also knows keyboards, rhythm guitar, and drums. He's known for being the straightman of Alice's antics and keeping her and Theodore out of trouble. However, he isn't as straight-laced and perfect as he seems - he's been super into the idea of incest with Alice and is very protective of her. He enjoys watching Star Trek and his favorite movies are 2001 A Space Odyssey and Tim Burton's Batman movies.
More Info
As Alice's brother, bandmate, and self-proclaimed wrangler, Simon was there for most of what she went through. However, while his sister's passion was in music and performance art, his passion was in his hobby as a scientist. Some of his inventions includes fully-functioning robots, a machine that can generate predictions of the future, and new HRT medicine to aid and expedite Alice's gender transition.
After Alice was more or less done transitioning medically, which only took a few months thanks to Simon, he started developing a crush on her. Alice used this as yet another thing to tease him with. At first he was flustered by this, but he eventually found that he likes how casual she was about everything. He found himself slipping into her world more, going from abstaining from weed and alcohol entirely, to partaking in it with her in moderation in low doses. He typically tends to stay away from psychedelics, figuring Alice needs someone to act as her "ground control" while she's on her trips. He's also really good at mixology.
He figures at this point there's no use in trying to tame Alice, especially since even Dave already gave up on that. So he may as well just make sure Alice is doing Alice things safely.
Theidore Seville
A chilled-out, optimistic, giggly, fat little nugget who likes cooking, eating, and getting baked. They're the drummer and backup singer, and also knows how to play bass and keyboards. They used to be very impressionable and are still somewhat naive and innocent. Their favorite movies are Willy Wonka, E.T., and Cheech & Chong.
More Info
As the little brother of the group, Theodore looks up to their older brother and sister and would often find themself wrapped up in helping out with whatever they were doing. Due to their kind nature, Alice's meaner antics would end up pushing Theodore into Simon's side of things to try to get her under control. If Simon is giving quite the tall order and it's overwhelming or intimidating, Theo would just go back to doing whatever they wanted to do, typically trying new recipes.
Theodore doesn't care about the weird romance between Simon and Alice and even encourages it. They see it as the family sticking together. While they don't have interest partaking in anything sexual, they do like to watch from time to time if they don't have anything better to do. These days Simon doesn't have to worry much about Theo getting into any trouble, and Theo loves to smoke weed with Alice, and Alice can always count on him to bring some good snacks for their munchies.

Congratulations on making it this far you fucking nerd 🤓
I made an Alvin model last year that I forgot about, so I finished it and made the other two. Dave here is an edit of the JC Thornton Link model lol - 🐇
how strange to watch their "capitalist" fantasy begin to crumble. the free market is supposed to shift the best products to the top, right? the reward for good capitalist behavior is maximized profits.
of course it's the groceries but it isn't just the groceries, it's everything. now it is $25 for you to eat at chipotle. you remember when they were famous for their portion sizes (and their food safety issues). you were a hungry college student and could actually-afford to eat there. these days the food is worse and the price is higher - why not just go anywhere else?
you have just a quick question for your pharmacy so you look at their website and even do battle with their chatbot but inevitably the answer isn't there. you try calling customer service. you listen to first a long automated message telling you to go online and try the website first. you listen to an AI voice named Jan or Kelly as she asks you to state the nature of your request and hems and haws and says i'm sorry, i don't think i'm understanding. you try pressing "0" and saying "speak to an operator" and "talk to a representative" and "live agent". she never connects you. if literally one person spoke to you, you'd have been able to resolve this in approximately 15 minutes. it has now been an hour and Jan/Kelly's server farm is out there somewhere ruining the environment while she fails to do her job.
you watch as more and more corporations choose shady business practices - are caught on camera doing so - and discover that no legal action has been taken. that the company is calling the obvious and deliberate action "a sad accident." you watch people point out that "black friday sales" are literally more expensive than the original price. you watch as someone shows an email that is literally violating consumer safety laws. you watch as someone blatantly commits fraud.
but who are you supposed to call about that? there are no regulations anymore. they're free of that nasty "red tape" republicans hate so much. food is spoiling on the shelves and there is cesium in your shrimp. everywhere you look, the same dedication to the shareholders. everywhere you look, the prices get higher while the product gets worse.
they can keep doing it forever, right! they can just keep doing whatever they want, forever. infinite money glitch.
and the thing is: you were okay to pay a certain amount to watch a movie for the experience (and of course that one moment with nicole kidman). you understand that verizon has always been evil; you weren't expecting a rapturously friendly experience. you came from a family where money was always tight: you have always been trying to "do the right thing". the coupons and the price-matching and going to twenty stores just to find 6 different things.
as an adult: actually, you are okay to spend a little extra if the product is nice, if you are given something wonderful. if it is worth it.
but now the bag is half-empty. now the clothes are ever-thinner. now they release the game half-finished with the attitude of: whatever, you'll buy it. the technology that used to last you 5+ years now falls apart in the second month due to a known manufacturing error that you have to pay to resolve. the gas monopoly quietly installs a new "smart meter" that artificially raises your costs by 300 a month. the trip to disney is not magical; it is expensive and hostile. you are priced out of your own life in order to worship the shareholders.
you do the capitalist thing: you take your business elsewhere.
on tv a reporter blinks in the early light. his face is drawn, grave. "in what some people are calling a recession indicator... another business set to declare bankruptcy today." you watch their logo flash - you actually like what they're selling, and used to be a customer, before they started price gouging. the man turns to the woman on his left. "well, in this new press statement, they say the consumer is to blame."
