Added 2016-10-28 23:50:54 +0000 UTCso theres this group of preppy homophobic shithead rich kids in the story coming up soon, and i'm trying to design them... its so difficult designing characters that ARENT supposed to be likable?? i looked up photos of trump's weird lookin sons for ref for some of them LMAO
if u guys have any feedback on things i could do design-wise to make them look even more punchable lmk! the goal is to make readers rly hate em...
thanks for supporting <33

2016-10-29 01:37:05 +0000 UTCLMAO You fuckin' nailed that awful trump lip curl... If only his skin were orange hahaha. In regards to feedback for "making them look more punchable" and "getting the readers to really hate them": I think MitJo are already super likeable, so anyone who is awful toward them the audience will probs auto-dislike. If you wanna dig deeper tho, the worst most unlikeable people in my life as a gay person growing up weren't the ones who were outright mean. The "obviously bad" ones were easy to roll my eyes at or shrug off. It was the self-righteous white boys (and girls) who fancied themselves good people, the ones everyone really admired, who could get away with saying The Worst things that made you question your existance and self worth. And everyone around you, including teachers, would let it keep happening because they didn't recognize that sort of behavior as homophobia or bullying. (kind of like how a lot of white ppl don't recognize racism outside of obvious slurs) I guess what I'm saying is, we're already on Team Mitjo, so getting us to dislike Team Prep won't be hard. Getting us to HATE them tho will probs have a lot less to do with their designs and more to do with how you write 'em! ANYWAY LOL SORRY FOR UBER LONG REPLY HAHA maybe it will help inspire u but if not feel free to disregard!! I'm super excited for whatever you come up with and all of these designs are already visually interesting ahhh * u *
