'Sup, Dudes!?
What do you think of Siobhán and my new looks? I've been drawn in an anime-esque style (reflecting looks popular in the early 2000s), and Siobhán is in the rubberhose style from the 1920s, which is where characters like Mickey Mouse and Felix the Cat came from. (She's a rabbit, because a lot of those cartoons had animals for characters. That style also generally doesn't draw the female characters with pronounced boobage, but it looked a little odd for Siobhán to be drawn that way.)
I have to say, the place on me where the "alternate" style doesn't really show up are my arms…Those look low-key the same as they always do. I basically just have a different face shape and pointy hair.
Anyway, this was fun, but I hope that next week I can go back to looking how I usually look. Like, it's nice to try new things, but the familiar is often more comfortable…If nothing else, I think Siobhán would like to go back to having ten fingers.
(Fun Fact: This is the 50th appearance of Siobhán the Shirtless! Isn't that neat?)
