FATHER & SON.

the first time i tried to post it, it killed itself...

i think they love each other a lot, even if things have been difficult.

(don't tag as ship, fuckheads.)

Cat

whipped this up in 45 minutes, it was loosely based off of a photo that @cakemx took. i also used my own bathroom as a background. too cute of a prompt to pass up, i'd say

MONSTROUS.

almost forgot to post today..!

i don't care if this has been done a million times over, i'll make the million and oneth with no shame.

Strength(?)

once again when i first tried to post this it killed itself. tumblr is not a big fan of me i see. do they not realize how hard it is to put in all these blazing bullshit tags??

funny how if i'd posted yesterday, i would have two holly/cacao submissions in a row, but i missed it because &/&/&$£}£*{€#£}€}€€{£{£

RELATIONSHIPS

don't... don't ask me any questions ok? it was very funny in my head. look how polite he is tho

i was too lazy to do anything else to the drawing so y'all get the raw photo

Pride 💞

so this one doesn't actually feature cacao himself, but... it's ok. the plan was to edit this into a picture frame on his lobby background, but i didn't feel like doing all that work.

random rambles below the cut 💪🏽

i don't know why i left out milk jelly from this one. i think i was just too tired to try and fit them in anywhere? just imagine they're out in the back lying facefirst in a snowbank. it's what they'd want

my friend wouldn't stop making jokes about how the prompt "pride" = this is gay, which is really funny considering they're straight people. for once. there is no indoctrinating children into the woke agenda in the cacao kingdom. trust me

also the color schemes here were completely random except that choco's sweater = dusty purple and ristretto's palette = oranges and yellows, but honestly i kind of dig them all? if i ever make official refs i might stick to these

anyone who wants a tutorial (ibispaint x) on how to color like this hmu, i might make a post about it if i get enough requests
