Empty promises. Empty words.
I love the art and the style and the costumes of this picture but I really resent the way the female characters are posed as opposed to the male characters. Ā Fiona, PB and Marceline are all posed in ways to show off the arch in their backs, their hips and breasts (and Marcelineās thigh), and the Fire Prince is just sitting in profile while the Princess is facing the viewer with more demure expression turned to the viewer. Ā In fact, the expression on all of their faces are a bit gender segregated too. Ā Finn is facing the side and Fiona is facing the viewer, Prince Bubblegum and Marshal Lee are facing each other and it looks like theyāre talking whereas Princess Fiona and Marecline arenāt even looking at each other (well, their breasts are) and it appears Princess Bublegum is even blushing for some reason?
This is really sad. Ā The art is so amazing but itās just really hard to appreciate it.
I usually donāt reblog stuff like this, but I really want to point out some shit. Iām not the best at typing my thoughts⦠so iām gonna number off some things i guess⦠instead⦠I really donāt want anyone to resent this picture, i feel like maybe if i explain some stuff⦠youāll resent it less? maybe? you donāt have to appreciate the drawing, but maybe youāll find different reasons to resent it⦠other than the ones you listedā¦
1. a few of the dudes are ALSO arching their backs. one of the girls is not. the reason i kinda posed the girls like this was to attach visible bows to them, so i could put the ribbon trails everywhere. I could have probably posed the dudes in the same exact way, but that would make me feel lazy, and the drawing would be maybe kinda boring.
2. theyāre not āshowing off their breastsā. they just⦠kinda have them. i donāt know, should i have posed them like⦠back view or something?
3. I drew marcelineās leg because i wanted to show that her tights were the same ones from the henchman episode. also wanted to put more red in the composition with the boots.
4. your profile verses 3/4 face statement⦠i wanted fionna and cake to be looking at each other, i wanted finn to be looking away while jake was sneaking treats from gumball⦠I donāt really understand the problem with this⦠iām probably just an idiot. I always feel a more ādemureā look is when someone is facing away from the viewer, but who knows.
5. Gumball and Marshall Lee are interacting because gumball engineered up some red fruits (red lemons, red peaches, red bananas) for him to eat.
6. pb and marceline arenāt looking at each other because marceline is looking at fire princess who is looking at marcyās ghost buds (who are blocking marceline from the firelight⦠but i guess that doesnāt make sense⦠can ghostly figures block out light? shit⦠shit!)
7. PB is blushing because whatever is in her beaker is emitting gas and thatās just kinda embarrassing
8. huhā¦. i guess their boobs are kinda pointing at each other⦠i didnāt notice that. youāve got a dirty, dirty mind ;V
I donāt hate ladies. I mean, I AM a lady. kinda. Iām like⦠haha iām eating pizza and typing and getting pizza sauce all over my keyboard⦠maybe iām not even human
