I had the idea yesterday and it feels good drawing my characters in a silly way again. Nobody trashtalks about the aroace trans queen without suffering the consequences (especially not around a deity).
Okay, it's not clean but I was too excited to not post it.
I don't know what came over me exactly (well no only partly but no matter) but I wanted to draw my dear girl R'tywoftu (just call her Arty) more particularly about her transidentity and then I came up with the idea of her brother's boyfriend, Oqwuji, actually being trans too! And as I only drew him twice before, he also got big change of design today ! (and subspecies too) Arty got a slight design change too, I'll see if I keep it
So yeah I was really glad of the redesign and just wanted to share it :D
(Species) Explications if you're interested below:
They're both of a species called 'Duspituop", which primary characteristic is that their bones and horn(s) are actually 'organic' precious stone that have healing property. When they're in a humanoid form, they can also take their horn(s) down and morph them into various tools or weapons.
One big subspecies is the equine one or "unicorns", which Arty is, and that was until recently not even a subspecies but just the whole species (I got more ideas since).
And Oqwuji is now of another subspecies, ressembling the Greater Kudu, hence the two big curly horns at his sides.
Also, Arty's stone is an emerald (certainly with a bit of quartz or something, I'm not sure yet), and Oqwuji is a tigereye.
Another thing about the Duspituops is that they mostly all (or maybe just all, I have yet to think it too) have gloves with a two length depending of if they're male or female: short for male (covers hands and wrists), long for female (goes up nearly all the arm). (Other species often use that fact to identify them as each or the other if they really want to know, cause the two gender often look similar)
Another good thing is that with their special characteristic, Duspituops are capable, little by little, of altering their own body by manipulating hormones and others. So the trans like them can mostly transition by themself! Not completely turn but come really close to the gender they feel they are. As a consequence, their gloves change length, not completely either but really close
Hence why they look at each other gloves. (Wow that was actually very long just to explain that ^^")
yes the gloves designs' decision was originally solely stylish, and it completely and subjectively still is
I wanted to make something somewhat original so here's the different couples (and single persons) among my Duspituop characters, a.k.a the fun side of Mailla family (including her). It was a good occasion to draw her cousins again and put colors on the new characters (which are Hyajivo’s partner and children and Ovryu’s partner) ^^
So first, obviously: Mailla and Liil (which is actually not a Duspituop at all)
The single womans are R'tywoftu, Duxoniqwo and Vixiqwo (daughter, mother and grandmother)
Then come Wisuq and Hyajivo with their twins Tixi and Yqut
And the boys taking care of animals are Oqwuji and Ovryu.
Actually I realize it’s the first time I really talk about them here so more art and explanation later ;w;
