tbh if you're worried your art style doesn't accommodate different types of people here's a fun little checklist:
can you draw a fat butch woman, with very short/shaved hair?
can you draw a construction worker in their mid 40's?
can you draw an old woman who's been baking for 50 years?
can you draw an androgynous looking black queer artsy type?
can you draw a chubby 6 year old who's favorite animal is cars?
can you draw an asian trans woman who's a guitarist?
can you draw a wheelchair user who's a librarian?
can you draw an old black woman who likes to knit?
If your answer to any of these is a "no" or a "maybe" then maybe you need to flex your character design muscles in that area. I definitely haven't drawn characters who fit all of these categories myself, even if i know i could draw them. It's a fun challenge regardless, and every one of these prompts still has a bunch of variance within them.
chase you to the end of the world, just to say your name once

[ID: Two paintings of Ekko from League of Legends and Gin, OP’s self-insert. Ekko’s design resembles his True Damage skin, with purple ties around the tips of some of his brown locs. Half of his hair is loose to form bangs, and the rest pulled into a half-up half-down bun that reaches his shoulders. He’s wearing a white tank top. Gin has tan skin, gold eyes, and bright red hair in long bangs and a ponytail down to his hips. He has fox ears and two fluffy tails with dark tips. He wears a black tank top and loose black pants. In the first image, Gin crouches on a table, smiling at Ekko while holding a cigarette. Ekko leans forward, looking at Gin’s lips. Gin’s tails curl around them. In the second, the tails are gone, showing Gin’s black platform heels. End ID.]

The colours of the drawing are very saturated, with a harsh blue or cyan overhead light, a yellow side light, and pink and purple shadows. End ID.]

[ID: Two versions of a painting of Boothill from Honkai Star Rail. The shot is up close, focusing on his eyes with his bangs partially covering his right eye.
