I wanna say its cause we have similar art styles but thats not true lmao This one is pretty easy to explain when you look at gnome's art more. I'm gonna post an image explaining on twitter but essential you just need to look at commonalities between characters. gnome doesn't have too much variety when it comes to male hair (curse u gender norms) so all of them will have similar shapes to them. So easiest way for me is to block out the pieces of the hair. I can explain it more in my visual on twitter but really once I drew stu's hair enough times, alan's became easy. The only person who's hair I don't draw the same as gnome is carver. I prefer him to have more floof.
