[Momma Mitsuki 1/2]

Hope the little brat is fine with me becoming his new dad.

[Wendy Smash!!]

Your facial expressions are underrated, it looks like the kind of simultaneously subtle and exaggerated (aka believable) acting you’d typically see in the best-looking 2D animated feature films from the 1990s.

[Dialow reacts to og ocs]

This would be my OCs if they saw what they looked like just a month ago. I don’t know if it’s a good thing or bad thing that, at the rate I seem to improve, even something I made two or three posts ago looks cringe to me now. I personally like the original versions of your OCs too, honestly, there’s an almost “Neverhood-esque” charm to the old sketches. Maybe we artists are just too critical and perfectionist about old work that we made when we obviously knew less—the new designs are obviously superior, but the old ones look pretty great for what they are.

InsaneDingoArt responds:

Thanks! I'm glad you like both versions lol. I don't hate them or anything it's just interesting to see where it came from originally. It's neat seeing how much of their designs are still within the characters. like...they have been drawn nicer yes but a lot of the design ideas were there from the start. also I've seen your stuff definitely improve over time. We just gotta keep going and look back on what we make from time to time.

Wha—Krampus is not supposed endearing and friendly-looking! He’s supposed to be EVIL! I want to sit on this guy’s lap and tell him I want a PS5!

[Wintery Gaz]

I like to think these Gaz pieces are designed specifically to annoy reviewers on this site that say she’s crossed the line from merely “thicc” to “fat,” as if they don’t mean exactly the same thing and will likely get the same negative reaction if you call an irl women either term—or expect sexy drawings on this site to be in any way realistic and “healthy” in the real world. I think she looks nice, and she’s well prepared with “extra padding” for even the coldest blizzards, although summers are no doubt rough for her…

[Quicky Donner]

Those muscles are legendary. I bet it’s actually the metal cyborg parts that are her weak spots in comparison.

[Let it Snow]

Well, if the woman is asking for it, and I oblige, it’s not problematic, is it…?

[Christmas Vivi]

MUST. GIVE HER. COOKIES! No presents in return, thanks, I just want to give her all my cookies.

[Donut]

Mmm…dooooonut.

[Teddie]

I'm sorry, but it seems like you're more comfortable with female anatomy than male anatomy. While androgynous men no doubt exist, they rarely, if ever have an hourglass-curve body like this where most of their weight is in their waist and thighs, and even bending their feet inward would take much more effort from a man than from a woman. I could give the benefit of the doubt that Teddie is perhaps bisexual and more comfortable embracing his feminine side than a straight boyfriend, but anatomy-wise the only clue that he is not female is his nose and perhaps his larger hands. I'm more comfortable drawing male anatomy than female anatomy, though, so at least we even out.
