#nocovember

It’s week 3 of Nocovember and this one was my favourite so far! The prompt for this week was holiday or birthday and I decided on holiday. I’m a little bit late as Diwali was last month, but I’ve always headcanoned that Noah and his big family would celebrate Diwali each year.

So, I thought ‘Hey, why not take that headcanon and draw it?’ Once Noah and Cody got together in a relationship and Diwali came around, Cody wanted to join in and celebrate with Noah and his family. So, I decided to draw little scenarios of them celebrating the holiday together c:

I drew them lighting the candles, Cody having fun with sparklers (much to Noah’s concern) and Noah introducing Cody to some traditional Indian food! I decided on gulab jamun (deep fried khoya with syrup) because it’s very sweet and we all know Cody loves sweet food (just like me 😂).

i've been envisioning this drawing for MONTHS now and i'm so glad that i turned out exactly how i wanted it to!!

and honestly, i applaud @eavee-ry sm for making this insanely cool au 😭🙏 all the drawings made me so awestruck and as a fellow artist, i'm js rlly proud of them 🥹🫶

ALSO to any1 who thinks noah looks whitewashed, understand that i had to desaturate him to make sure he blended well with the moonlight and dark atmosphere! [saying this bcs one person on tiktok said he looked whitewashed 😭 and i had to explain that this is js how ppl w/ noah's skin (like myself) js works in the moonlight]
