Back To Work Doodles (Patreon)
Content
Holiday vacation is over and I’m back at the office, bleh. Even worked today, on a Saturday! >:/ But I also did a buttload of drawing over the week, so have a doodle dump!
1.) I was asked on my last post how Mal has such big all-natural bazongas, which prompted me to start playing around with her body type. Definitely still unlearning some hard-wired stuff about how to draw bodies (damn all those how to draw manga books in my formative years! jk) , particularly how I kinda default to “curvy” when I design my women and femmes. I originally figured Mal would’ve gained weight post escaping her parents and settling into a chill new life (with lots of weed and junk food), but now I’m thinking no way would Mal ever give up her sick shredded bod. Also, it makes more sense narratively….part of the reason Mal’s parents don’t support her transition is because they feel she “doesn’t do it very well”, ie. does not pass as a woman, or more accurately, does not fit their narrow idea of what a woman should be (delicate, thin, dainty, taking up very little space). Mal, meanwhile, feels that she’s a literal goddess that people should feel lucky to look at….but her normally unshakable self-image does sadly tend to falter whenever she interacts with her parents. Fortunately, she’s doing that a lot less these days.
2.) It’s Smooch-Yo-Man Saturday at the Toffee/Bob household! These two may be past the honeymoon phase, but they’re also officially in that comfy cozy stage of marriage where one doesn’t care about your spouse’s morning dog breath
3.-5.) Set a some time in the future, featuring Older!Honey. In which Topher learns that having a kid doesn’t necessarily mean you get a perfect mini-me that will mirror all your opinions and your contempt for corny country jams. Damn Honey and her corruptive influence! (jk, Toph’s mostly being dramatic. If he didn’t like Honey and her stupid ass influence he wouldn’t trust her to babysit~)
Honey and her niece/nephew/nibling are of course singing Take Me Home, Country Roads. Fun fact, Axel has a very shrieky-squeaky kid voice, something like Sweetie Belle and Squirt the Turtle (Finding Nemo) got mashed up together, so their singing with Honey is pure ear pain
