[Molly Smith]

BAGS UNDER THE EYES GANGGG LET'S GO
and she's got 4 fuckin' jobs?? dude I'd be tired as hell too I feel like I understand her so much more based on that alone I'm not even gonna lie here
I would not be surprised at all if she just didn't have the time to develop an observable personality because she's just been working like a robot her whole life
she deserves a little hug and a "you're doing a good job, it's gonna be alright" so bad, I can tell
thank you for showing us more of her, I can't believe we haven't met her yet!

melsnoodles responds:

absolutely nailed her personality with this,
I think she feels so neutral about life that any wild emotion makes her tired eyes just wIDEN
she's weirdly fun to put her in the line of fire just for that... fling a little certain bad boy at her and have her struggle to keep up... heheh...

[Molly Faces]

funny how I see the tag "cringe" and yet I see no cringe, only another cool oc that you can tell is trying their best >:D
I absolutely love seeing the expressions you illustrate but here there's so much of a tired and "done" aura/energy that I'm just kinda like girl me too
something tells me that when she smiles genuinely it's like seeing a shooting star and it's just like YES WE DID IT, you know?? and that's kinda sorta really precious <3

melsnoodles responds:

Her face muscles are just so used to forced smiles, a genuine one would catch HER off guard as well. I love that idea so much, bless her little cotton socks, she tries her best dammit ;;

[save her]

😳😳😳😳😳😳😳 vIN WHAT ARE YOU DOIN' MAN, YOU ABSOLUTE LADY-KILLER YOU'RE GONNA GIVE HER A HEART ATTACK
this man's such a ho dude I love him so much
honestly?? I really wanna see what kinda monsters Vin's hunting, I wanna see what kinda spooky creatures you have to offer, Ms. Mel!!
what beings are out here threatening these humble townsfolk? >:0
WHAT creature had the pure GALL to terrorize Lame Molly?? I am very interested indeed..

melsnoodles responds:

A HO,
YES DFKJGJHDF
such a ho that I never actually draw more contextual stuff with him and that needs to cHANGE
I'm takin this as a prompt to set more of the mood thank you very much for pointing it out,
time to draw some weird zombiemutants B)

[Furi Poppi]

I SPY WITH MINE LITTLE EYE AN ABSOLUTE FRIEND!
look at them, they look like they're so excited to be there!! I get extremely "head empty" baby vibes from this little lass, and I'm kinda sorta in love with it
not to mention that good ol' trope of a big ol' burly man with a little baby creature or kid that they'd positively DIE for
in fact, I wouldn't even call it a trope, I'd call it a feature because it's adorable every SINGLE time

melsnoodles responds:

I LOVE IT SO MUCH YES
fastest way to my heart is just seeing how much a big grumpo cares for this one little special creature
...I love calling that a 'feature', like it just has positive connotations, that's so awesome

[swing]

now introducing: a swift demonstration on what Vin did to that one guy in the AU fhjdkfhk
action poses are always a great thing to practice tho! they really bring a lot of life to characters and Vin is no exception >:)
if his expression in the second pose didn't do that enough! full of rage, angy boi
I also cannot help but humbly appreciate the pure amount of CAKE that you gave him in the second pose as well😳
it could've been completely unintentional but like d a y u m
he fits very well in a brawler-type game too methinks, and I believe there should be a mod for this somewhere >:0

melsnoodles responds:

I'M GLAD YOU NOTICED
boy's got the family blessing, much to his dismay
I like to think he happens to date very grabby girls
it's what he gets for being a chunky lad
no amount of manly displays of violence can save him from a cute little squeeze 🙈

[Team from Fortress 2]

I'm gonna keep saying it, looks like it hopped STRAIGHT out of the comics
like I can see this being in an official promotional tweet or something!
everything from the lighting to the wrinkles in the clothes, I'm not even gonna lie some of the ways you draw things are, like, GOALS for me
I especially like how you added the little dents in his helmet, and how much effort you obviously put into making the rocket launcher look right!

itskeej responds:

EVERY TIME YOU SAY SOMETHING ON HERE I WANT TO CRY BUT IN THE BEST WAY, once again... hearing this means so much to me ;__; i gain 5 years on my life whenever i hear it looks like it's out of the comics IT'S UNINTENTIONAL BUT HEARING IT'S HAPPENING ANYWAYS BRINGS ME SO MUCH JOY AAAAA, thank you so much! >_>

[fucked up big time]

aw goddammit Vin, ya didn't even get yourself out of those bloody clothes, they're gonna know it's you right away!
gotta get a shower and burn those clothes, man
first we gotta be scenically moody tho, for the aesthetic!
also I'm not saying I'd be alright with harbouring a fugitive but I'd totally let Vin chill with me while this all blows over DHFFJKHGFKJK
he's a gOOD GUY he did NOTHING wrong he just respects women so much he killed a guy and goddammit that makes him a vigilante (I'm reaching so hard)
for real tho I love this colour palette especially <3 another great job, my friend!

melsnoodles responds:

Vin'd be the worst fugitive, he'd just act like he's got nothing to hide and be way more trouble than he's worth and phrase his answers in the most incriminating way :,ccc
all the more proof he needs help in these situations cLEARLY

["I told ya not a single finger"]

MORALLY GREY CHARACTERS MY BELOVED
I like this AU idea a lot, where Vin is the ultimate White Knight to his exs and kills whoever treats them wrong
he just cares so much, guys <3
and honestly I'm so jealous myself of those blood splatters, they look so right ;;
and again with the background that's just simple enough to drive home what's in the foreground but also just detailed enough to look realistic and set the scene as well!
I can't help but wonder if he just walked home like that covered in blood hehe
he just don't give a shit <33

melsnoodles responds:

he totally thought he would think up some excuse on the way and never did,
just winging it, the boy is just raw impulse ;A;

thanks so much for all the lovin' for my angry little man and my li'l technical shortcuts, I'm glad they sell the idea!!

[hudson boys]

in this world you only get three choices,,
bad boi, soft boi, or DILF (I'msosorry)
Vin and Seb definitely have to be some of my favourite characters of yours, Vin was the first character I ever saw from you and Seb is just a lil' baby mannn!!
they deserve the world and I love them sm

melsnoodles responds:

all the choices you need in a beat 'em up for the arcade B)

thank you so much for all the love for these li'l brats ;;;; they spark sO much joy!!

[they call it home]

WOOO I love seeing what you do with backgrounds, my friend! and the room of a character can actually tell you a lot about them, so honestly I was excited to see it >:)
and I can tell you indeed that I am indeed learning a lot since my eyes were drawn to the ~ c o n d o m s ~ in Vin's room DHGFYJJDYTRRGF
he seems to be quite the messy boy smh but we love him anyways <3
and Seb's room is telling me a lot too, the vibes in his room are immAculate. one could indeed spend a very comfy rainy afternoon in there with some tea
wonderful work, friend! not that I'm surprised, you even got small bits of plot to explain things like the holes in the walls in the first one! I love that!

melsnoodles responds:

Honestly it just makes me so happy that these li'l bits and bobs give so much to chew on dfjghdkf I've always loved to see how people gush about their characters and all the little nuances, its like watchin a story unfold, so I figured it's unfair to hold back if I can give back that enthusiasm!!

I love your very observant eyes, Vin is indeed a very naughty boy~~~
And Seb's a darling he's done nothing wrong ;A; ... let's hope he stays that well given his horrible influences he calls siblings

Thank you so so much for the lovely comment!! it makes my heart all warm n fuzzy to see these having such a nice reception ;;
