: looks good! what's your paypal? c:
: awesome, thanks so much!
next i'd like to get a subeta style overlay done for Braginsky! he's a fanpet for the representation of russia from axis powers hetalia. he's like the opposite of Berwald: he looks super adorable but he's actually really scary and cruel. the only important things to note are that he's incredibly fluffy for an archan (particularly in the mane), and that his little head ribbon things are really super long and he wraps them loosely around his neck like a scarf.
here is his human ref, for his general build, facial expression / eye color, and the length of his scarf! i don't have any specific pose in mind as long as it's cute and really shows off how fluffy he is.
is he fluffy enough sorry the pose is just generic standing i was trying to go for "actively fluffing out"
: oh yes definitely fluffy enough! his scarf ribbons should be a bit looser though, like down around (and slightly obscured by) the middle of his mane ovob but yes, this pose is perfect, very unassuming. i love it.
: paid and saved ❤️ i'm seriously tempted to have you draw my denmark fanpet now...
: okay i'll definitely get another usd slot then! give me like...a day to come up with an exact design and i'll get back to you. ❤️
: how do you do with fire? if i wanted a reborn tigrean / archan, would that be doable?
fire is a pain in the ass and i may charge it as a prop depending on how much trouble it gives me but i can figure it out
: i definitely figured it would be extra and i'm fine with that!
okay so i settled on the reborn archan, and i whipped up a quick example of how he should look! this is for the representation of the kingdom of denmark from axis powers hetalia, who is also where i get my username from so he's very close to my silly little nerd heart. uvub (and he's also the crying loser in my signature.) basically take the reborn archan and chop off its tail and head ribbon things and replace them with the manticore stuff! the horns are the color and pattern of the danish flag. the only complicated part (and the part that involves my fire question) is the mane; basically where there's that orangey gold color is going to be fire, like the regular reborn archan, and where that pale blond color is should be fluffy hair, styled like this! his hair is like...super important and i'll pay extra for it! here are more examples of his hair and eyes and general persona; he's very smiley and bold and brash, the exact opposite of both sweden and russia. also his eyebrow game is strong.
let me know if you need to know anything else! i know this one will be trickier but i'll pay u gud for it.
sketch the horn style is going to partially obscure the hair though
: just that little bit behind the foremost horn? that would be okay. you can always adjust the horn style too, i'm not super attached to their design as long as the pattern is clearly visible! otherwise it looks awesome, i love what you did with the tail!
