Giving some love to some other characters i never draw
Im gonna redraw jean & paul cus they were the first ones I did and I struggled on accurately representing both of their features waah
Also i have some headcanons for all of them lalala under the cut
INMATE HEADCANONS
> Paul Guaye
* Imo he is originally from Africa and is a 2nd generation (LEGAL) immigrant
* Either west or east african... Specifically Nigeria, Ghana, or Kenya
* Enjoys doing drag, but is ashamed of it. This is mostly because of the misogyny that exists in an all male prison. He is unashamed about his love for fashion and home decor, but very ashamed of his drag persona.
* If he wasn't an inmate, he would be a famous home designer or realtor
* His favorite food is his mother's Kachumbari (tomato salad), because she uses specific herbs and spices that "really bring out the flavor"
* Despite his claims, he would still be with Jean if they weren't in prison. They have a natural chemistry imo, even though they disagree a lot
> Jean Baptiste Le Ghei
* French-Italian! His family has lived in America for generations but they tend to only have french or italian couples.
* Compensating for his fragile masculinity. He comes off as tough because he is too insecure to admit to himself a lot of things
* Hates his father. This one is canon. His father disowned him for being gay.
* He is a very sensitive man, despite how he seems. He genuinely wishes he were better at expressing himself so he could be a better husband to Paul.
> Turban
* Specifically from Northeast India, so he was given the name Ishaan (for its reference to the guardian of the northeast in Hinduism)
* 3rd generation immigrant from a very large, traditional family
* Has been divorced 3 times
* Had hamsters as pets in his smoke shop before it was closed.
> Gary Sedi
* Japanese and East African (on his mother's side)
* His mother died when he was very young, resulting in his mutism / nonverbalism due to PTSD. He watched her die
* He also has low support needs autism
* His special interest is ornithology
* I dont have much on him he literally doesnt do that much
> Nicky
* In superjail for grand theft auto
* Very intelligent, was a gifted kid in his earlier years.
* Also autistic, and diagnosed with ASPD
* If you noticed I didn't add where hes from thats because he's totally white. CAUCASIANNNN. Though, I think he could be very vaguely italian. Like on his great grandfathers side or smth
> Ash Firin
* Native American & white. His mother was native american
* The above is why his comfort character is a native man from an old cowboy movie series.
* Uses he/they pronouns
* Has ADHD & was in therapy for PTSD before his imprisonment (the therapy did not help)
* Very cute and silly I want to be his mother
> Jacknife
* The absolute whitest American ive ever seen
* Probably somehow related to a famous historical figure
Some more human bird since you guys seemed to like her! :)
Finally got some time off from finals studying to make these. I’m really glad one of my art pieces I’m proud of got traction.
(By the way, you guys are free to use my human bird design. All I ask is that you properly credit me as the creator of the design, and please keep it SFW. Also please don’t ship her with any of the human/alien characters on the show, even if she’s a human in the design, she’s still very much a bird in the show and any kind of shipping with canonically human characters makes me deeply uncomfortable. Thank you.)
