I was originally comparing Ramona and Rafaela due to their similar color schemes, but then added Giovanna in there for funsies.

Conclusions: 1) Ramona and Rafaela do not, in fact, look very alike (even in vanilla) (i'm not going to show their vanilla forms. I'm kind. I'll spare your eyes. I need bleach for mine though.) 2) Rafaela's shorter than I realized 3) Ramona's taller than I remembered 4) Giovanna why are you so TINY 5) Maybe one day I'll manage to change the hairstyle of either Giovanna or Rafaela enough that they're not basically copies

Ended up modding Adler rq 'cause I don't exactly love what DT did to male Elezen (vanilla on the left, mods on the right).

Also POV: you done screwed up.

Finnean Adler! I needed to give Rafaela's second in command an appearance (and a name) and ended up with this, so we have this now. He's a lieutenant and there's some rank shenanigans around the whole thing 'cause there's also a captain around that's above him but below her. It's some who's loyal to who crap that definitely leads to complications often enough.

Not between him and Rafaela though, they get along well and he's loyal to her rather than Tyrone. Rafaela has one too many loose screws, but this guy's very level-headed, thinks before he does or says anything, quiet but extremely observant type of person. And one of the only people Rafaela (sometimes) listens to, so he does occasionally talk her down from this or that.

Pretty rarely, though, overall, so her whole reign of terror is still mostly unchecked 'cause he ultimately kinda agrees with her leadership methods.

What I'm saying is that at the end of the day, he's not a very nice guy.

Rafaela and Tyrone, her fuckmate.

The attraction is very one-sided. He's extremely into her, she hates his guts. As is healthy and all.

But speaking of Giovanna! I edited her sculpt. I was left a bit dissatisfied with how she looked like next to Rafaela (also pictured), so I tweaked her a lil while still trying to retain the spirit of her appearance.

Scar is still functional in the sculpt, but I turned it off 'cause it's not... Really hers, it's Gia's, and I haven't even draw her with it. Hers is her torn left ear.

Also changed her hairstyle some. The one she had before really wouldn't have worked with a hat, realistically, so I changed the braid style around the head and swapped the bun for another braid.

But also I liked the hairstyle on Rafaela so then I made her a version where she has the bun instead of a braid at the back.

Here's a small comparison of Giovanna's original hairstyle that I really really should just leave on Rafaela, and the new hair on Giovanna. The new one is also hat compatible, of course, that was the whole entire point of the endeavor lmao.
