I don’t usually draw comics but when I do... It’s usually because my bestie writes something incredible and I cry about it. Adrian belongs to @witchesandlotuses

Messy sketching today. Felore’s chest growth from fantasy GAHRT has been a source of joy.

Saw an outfit on the clock app that I had to put him in… Femme-cut blazers are just the right length to take one back to 1976.
RE: the “babygirl” comments I’ve seen.
I know y’all mean well and I don’t expect strangers to know the nuances of my character’s gender and sense of identity. And I will try to articulate my feeling on this as best I can: My character shouldn’t have to be emasculated/infantilized to express feminine traits- and that term gives those vibes. And that’s not the vibe I’m trying to serve here representing my trans experience in my OCs. (Your experience may be different and that’s okay!)
Point being: babygirl doesn’t apply here. But thank you for the love of my transfem GNC blorbo.
Thank you so much. Felore’s fuzzy tiddies are my absolute favorite charm point about him and they spark so much joy ;_;

I've been following your art for the past 7 or 8 years now, and the journey you've taken Felo on has been absolutely amazing to see. I'm so thankful that you've shared it with the internet because it's beyond words what you and others have created. I was always excited to see the next part of the story. I remember crying a bit seeing the piece about the last battle with the Sunguard but then being relieved you continued on in another way. I'm excited for the future.
;_; oh wow. This was incredibly meaningful to read. I did not realize sharing my stuff would have such a long lasting impact. But I'm really warmed to know that my love and joy for this character and the things I create with him spark so many feelings for others. I'm really touched. Words like these are something I really needed to hear- especially now as a lot of things (AI, data scraping, anti-trans rhetoric) have made me begin to fear what and where I post. Thank you for these very kind words. @docleech
Transfem edition...Their glasses are still on the bedside table and those pants were definitely the pre-E pair.

This is what happens when I listen to ABBA on repeat when its time to make Felore another outfit. (he/they)
@sirchicle aaa that is so meaningful to hear! He is my original character- so not a fan art :D
Doodles from this week. Talking about how Felore sometimes breaks his nice pair of glasses (toddlers at home) and having to wear his back-up pair of coke-bottles because he's that blind. His eyes behind them are like OwO.
But also I’m just having fun practicing bone structure with his pretty face.

What happens when I listen to Dan Hartman on repeat and imagine Felore belting it out. (he/they) Disco is one of my fav music genres for its deeply queer roots. (especially comforting for this old gay born in the late 1900s...)

I scrolled far enough in your Felore Soleil tag that I found your old pics of him before he started having some chest develoopment and I kind of...? love that?? it almost feels like I'm witnessing his physical transition in real time if that makes any sense. Like he's changing physically as his gender identity shifts like and irl person ;0;
It's been a really comforting and cathartic creative experience for me to explore Felore's physical changes. It means a lot for you to notice and say so because it was very deliberate. ;_; This last 2 years or so, I've been making slight edits to his ref sheet to keep up with the changes. Here's what he looked like before fantasy HRT and after. His goal was to become an androgynous-bodied GNC person, and he's living that dream rn.

All curves are valid.

Also bringing this back because by far, it was my favorite piece to paint this year. I have a gender affirming surgery coming up next month (its taken me 10 yrs to finally get it) and this character has been such a source of comfort and expression for me as a gender-nonconforming person who wishes to present androgynously. I wish everyone of all body types a very find happiness with your body.
Also here’s my not-skinny agender character I also feel good vibes with.
@star-reader-ffxiv Happy to answer a question! Felore is amab transfem and after his afab transmasc spouse carried their second child, he wanted to do something symbolic with the xaelic bonding ritual a close family friend had offered to officiate for them (a parent-child blessing where both Felore and Adrian made promises to protect their children in blood). Adrian had done so with birth itself that had left them scars on their body. Felore could never do that with the body he has- so he decided to have the permanent scarring from the ritual take place on his lower abdomen in solidarity with the permanent marks Adrian’s sacrifice left them with. This was also a big statement for his first child, who was adopted, to symbolize his devotion to being her parent. That is why there are two scars- one for each of his children, and I imagine he will have more. OOCly, I think c-section scars deserve every visibility and acceptance as a very normal and beautiful thing for all my mom and parent friends out there who sacrifice a lot to bake a whole lil’ human, and my character will always drink that respect juice for it.

The nose thing genuinely makes me so happy because I gave them my nose and my skin/ dark hair/dark eyes. My ancestors were Ashkenazi Jew and Italian so I got the huge nose bump and spotted skin combo. I just wanted an OC that celebrated parts of myself I struggled to think were pretty. Evjn helps me love myself more.

I’ll never get sick of using Felore for fashion studies.
