i also ramble a lot more on the behind-the-scenes pdf for this zine that you can also get with your purchase >;^] i also drew some nifty matching icons for the zine! (hint: it's time for divorce)

you know me, i'm incredibly klapollopilled, of course i'm drawing these two suckers for the wedding zine! <3 something about klapollo marriage makes me incredibly emo so i'm very glad for the opportunity to go all out so i can be EXTRA emo about it 😈

if i remember right, i think this idea came to be when i thought about the image of klavier bursting into tears as he lifts up apollo's veil and it all went from there LOL (also so psyched i get to draw him in a barong tagalog <333)

everything got so much more ambitious, though, from that initial idea! i drew like what (i am counting the number of characters in the spread right now as i type) 40-ISH CHARACTERS ALL IN ALL?! (WHAT THE FUCKDFGDHJ) and i even had to cut out some of the characters i originally had in the sketch 😭 (sorry gumshoe, kay, and seb/eustace ....)

i drew this like a year ago and i'm still so proud of this piece! i don't think i can achieve this level of rendering again, it's been so long i forgot how to do it LMAO

(also i can never reopen the file for this thing again bc it makes clip studio want to dieeeee DFSGHDJ so many layers ...)

another thing, i was working on this in tandem with my piece for the mea culpa zine; do you know how funny it is to draw apollo having such a happy moment and then draw him dying 😭 the contrast, the whiplash

Klavier spends all day everyday playing guitar in underwear only.. sorry for the jumpscare LMAO, we tried to make it look like the pajamas originally were a set, where Klavier took the shorts and Apollo took the shirt! That man can put away so many blts..

The second part is wrightworth household, they're really fun to play with! We also have a few pets since we got cats and dogs on a sale! So Klav and Apollo have Mikeko and Vongole (this was before we made Kristoph.. otherwise he would've gotten his dog, OKAY), and Phoenix and Miles have Pess, and since Kay and Trucy live with them, of course Kay took in the silliest, crustiest stray cat. His name is Gepetto <3

Doing this unprompted.. at the gym.. come on guys
