RIGHT! So I’m having a terrible time getting my brain in gear to articulate anything but I have some thoughts so just bear with me I guess. Words are hard. Have some quick silly littles doodles while I waiting on my laundry lol

Julio Ortega I fucking love you.

We all know at this point I’m a big butch Julia bitch. I love her, I love her so much, she is the most handsome woman I’ve ever seen. And it isn’t an insignificant amount of stuff in the text and patreon to play into this either. I don’t think I really talk about Valya’s Julia being more gnc and starting to play fast and loose with it but maybe I should. But I'm very much that either late in the book timeline or post game, where Valya isn't quite so fucked from the Farm and isn't still convincing themself she'd like them better as a woman like they used to be, that they're back to being themself and all that Valya is and maybe they get to help her a little along the way this time.

I dunno just know that Julia’s gender and relation to femininity are very very dang important to me, and the pressure and perception of how maybe she should look/act/present. Especially with being in the public eye as she is, and back as marshal too. But that’s not why I’m here rn, but I just think it’s worth tossing in here somewhat

Anyway, Julio! I think Julia would enjoy drag a lot, even without the gender fucking around (but yeah a lot with that too), I genuinely think she'd enjoy it and find a lot of love in it. Just casually, somedays she can be Julio, and things are a little different and fun and nice. Maybe around the house, maybe out on a date, but there's sowmthing just so right out being him.

So sometimes she's Julia, sometimes Julio, sometimes both, and it's just so freeing and good in a way she can't quite describe. No giving a fuck about roles and expectations and just living. It's the right fit.

I wish I could share something exciting but I only use one brush 90% of the time lol.

It's a modified pencil tool in sai 2. I just fiddle with the edge hardness, density/opacity, and intensity of the noise effect whether I'm sketching, doing lineart, or rendering

When I need to blend a lot more smoothly I use this airbrush tool and play with the same settings above

Then sometimes, as a little razzle-dazzle, I also put a noise filter on a finished drawing lol

tl;dr
