And remember kids,

If you think lgbtqia+ people shouldn't have basic human rights, LUFFY WOULD HATE YOU

If you think women are lesser than men simply for being women, ZORO WOULD HATE YOU

If you think billionaires deserve all the money they made off the backs of working class people, NAMI WOULD HATE YOU

If you think compassion and basic human emotion makes someone worthy of ridicule, USOPP WOULD HATE YOU

If you think women exist to serve men and shouldn't make decisions about their own bodies, SANJI WOULD HATE YOU

If you think it's okay for healthcare to be denied to someone for any reason, CHOPPER WOULD HATE YOU

If you think it's okay to censor research, education, and communication, ROBIN WOULD HATE YOU

"omega shane" this "pregnant shane" that. yall need to stop being cowards and subvert the trope. give me alpha shane that always felt inferior for not being enough of a typical alpha among typical alpha hockey players. give me secretly omega ilya who was raised as an alpha because his father refused to accept not having an alpha son and ilya does a phenomenal performance of it.

man. the biggest issue I have with omegaverse is the inherent misogyny of the stereotyping. 'oh hes a bottom so we have to force feminine traits on him' shut up shut UP. the perceived imbalance forced on two characters whos entire dynamic is defined by being equals. seeing people calling shane a twink shane is not a twink HE'S THE TOP PLAYER IN THE LEAGUE FOR FUCKS SAKE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT WORDS MEAN

and like,,, going outside of omegaverse but kind of related because i feel like theres influence. i am so sick of two characters in a ship who are equals being forced into heteronormative archetypes. im looking at you, people who draw zosan and make sanji smaller than zoro. they are the same height. fuck off with that shit. the reason i like this ship is the even nature of them i dont want to see you changing that to fit your mold just draw a ship that already fits it ffs

i have been cursed by heated rivalry to have inspiration for a sapphic hockey romance, which has led me to make fictional versions of all the pwhl teams including designing logos and jerseys, which i spent all day today doing while watching ncaa championship games from last year because the pwhl hasnt been around long enough to exclusively use that for research purposes. im in deep. the queers have captured me. its gonna be a rivals to lovers about goalies that played together in college and are now on rival teams in the professional league. working title pull the goalie. all of this over just the weekend who knows what the next week will bring as i wait impatiently for the olympic womens hockey games to happen

ive talked about it before but i wanna talk about it again and that's

body types in drawing especially in terms of one piece characters

and i know its because official art presents them all the same but it just does not feel right to me, y'know? especially when i look at fanart and it looks like they just drew the same body multiple times with different faces (talent in that yes but god change it up a bit PLEASE)

like with my style i like to draw semi-realistic cartoon type beat, and that means im thinking about an abstract of shape language in the way that i present the characters. i consider their fighting styles and workouts when i think about what their body type would be, not just for op ive done this with mha and jjk characters too because god dammit gege, maki deserves bulkier muscles for her efforts

so here it is. my analysis of more semi-realistic designs for these characters. all my opinion and not meant to be a call out to anyone.

also, not including the women because we all know how unrealistic they look and i dont need to explain that to you im begging just use reference.

LUFFY

rubberhose arms are ESSENTIAL in his design so when i draw him, i never put too much definition in his muscles. real definition should be reserved for gears that alter his muscles

noodly arms and stick ass legs that is his Charm thank you i dont need super definition

ZORO

on the opposite end of the spectrum, zoro.

though, i see many people draw him more bodybuilder silhouette when he should be powerlifter silhouette, youve SEEN how this man works out. stereotypical bodybuilder physique that's all muscle and no fat is EXTREMELY UNHEALTHY TO MAINTAIN and you know theres no damn way sanjis letting someone on the ship watch their weight for the sake of visuals. he should be defined and bulky, but softer edges on the abs.

USOPP

Speaking first on pre ts, what does he excel at most? long range weapons and running.

obviously he gets proper strength training during timeskip, but i really think the best representative for him is olympic sprinters

muscular, but still pretty skinny

SANJI

hear me out. ballet physique.

i see him drawn w the same physique as Zoro and it just feels so wrong. he doesnt train his upper body, so most of his definition would be in his core and legs. not to mention his flexibility tracks with that.

maybe ill come back with a figure study on these later to fully show how it translates into my drawings but. for now. tumblr wont let me add any more images to this post
