selveris again. was playing with the same pose but from a different angle. (fishnets version was by friend demand)
realizing that my character design sensibilities are a little reserved. there's dashes of complexity but i rarely give them ornate accessories, so what i think of as 'overdesigned' is a bit more straightforward than many. i cant do, like, lavish mmo-ey fantasy getups for example
i straight up drew ms-painty depictions of mine and pointed to individual sections and what i was going for. it's probably good to give some small rationale for each component, though my OCs aren't /that/ complicated in design
why cant Hatsune Miku rule the world so we can finally be better
though to be honest this is just a function of Kobato Kazamatsuri Is Praised For Literally Anything In Any Context
the "what the fuck is this i look ridiculous! i look like a GIRL, get me out of this dress immediately" > "oh wooooow kazamatsuri-san thats actually kinda cute" > "...heeeh? ~yeah that's right honey-bun don't you know it~" and then he forgets he had a problem
i tend to do strange allegorical things like 'outfit worn only by a corpse'
