this has been a wip for nearly two fucking years i shit you not. i've posted sketches of it here before lmao. i literally could not figure out how to color or finish it and i'm afraid of drawing full body human characters (at least standing side by side like this). i tried to scrap it entirely and then it just kept haunting me and it pissed me off every time i opened the file!! so recently i decided i have to at least finish it for myself and see if i could salvage it. tbf i thought it'd turn out way worse. it's STILL a hot mess - a lot of experimentation and odd coloring and whatever tf was going on with the lineart but bleh whatever. being that it's been two years the way i draw has changed somewhat so it was pretty challenging. i did learn a lot while working on it, for one i need to work on my proportions and reference poses to make them less awkward. i'm glad batty's shirt came out the way it did bc it almost defeated me. plaid is my arch-nemesis.
