Hi again, I just saw the Little Red riding hood concept and I LOVE IT, it's so simple yet effective, the portrait is SO GOOD, the color pallete and the art style <3. I have seen almost all your art that I could find on aethy and twitter and this is the first time I have seen it. Would you use this concept as inspiration for Werewold Au!Darby? like her hair color and dress, or do you got something else in mind?

thank you so much! these are pretty old honestly, i'm sitting on tons of old work that was only ever posted to sfw accounts because i couldn't comfortably merge both worlds. hoping i can share my entire breadth now that i'm not afraid of being stoned to death by teenagers.

for your question! right now i'm worried that i've pushed mallory and darby so far ooc i'm wondering if i should just create new characters... at their core they are just an age gap blueprint and i do have forbidden aus where he is an active predator, i just wonder when they stop being malby...

darby's basic design is blunt bangs + godiva hair (usually a cool color) + horns so i think i would definitely borrow the twin braids either way. i want to keep the red to reinforce the iconography--i've been told bright reds are difficult to work with but i have a lot of fun with them! but beyond that i'm unsure, it's just vibes bro, etc.

i've settled on "wolfsbane" for the au itself and for time being they will go as mallory wolfe and dotty. i'm going to update the tags on my previous posts to reflect this but yeah, you are welcome to share any suggestions or thoughts you might have! i'd love to hear them!
