Outfit Swap Art Trades! (Celebrating Day 100 of my Digital Art Journey)

[Leyelle]

Today's another big anniversary for me so I'm open for more of these if anybody is interested

[applebun]

Here’s your Alicia in one of Tao’s outfits!

Based on this pic but it’s really old:

You can draw Tao in Alicia’s outfit but you don’t need to, I don’t want you to work too much lol

[Leyelle]

@applebun I'd be down to give Tao a shot. Is she plussized or are her clothes just baggy? I want to make sure I draw her accurately. also how old is she?

[applebun]

She’s plus sized and wears baggy clothes lol. Also she comes off older in the picture but she’s actually 28, the same age as Alicia!

[Leyelle]

I actually thought she was younger that's why I asked lol. I thought she might be a teenager

[applebun]

Wow I’m surprised you thought that, whenever I draw her I’m afraid she might come off as grandma-ish but then again, the story she’ll be in is historical, so they’re all gonna wear grandma clothes lol

[Leyelle]

nah, she doesn't look grand-maish to me, just like a bookworm

[Leyelle]

@applebun

Here's Tao in Alicia's outfit. I was going to draw her in Alicia's outfit from Kattar's birthday, but I wasn't sure if Tao would be comfortable wearing something that sexy lol. The outfit you gave her seemed pretty tame.

[applebun]

Ohhhh my gosh she looks amazing! You were right about the outfit, in the time and place she lives in sexy outfits are still a bit unusual. In fact, even this outfit would be considered sexy because quite skin tight and skirt above knees, but I think Tao would be fine with that. She likes wearing stuff to annoy people, especially her parents lol
And she looks so cool in it! You really drew her like the CEO she is, I know Alicia made this outfit out of Kattar’s sweater but it looks so business-y on Tao… Great work!

[Leyelle]

Thanks I'm glad you like it XD. Here is the shaded version

It seems a little funny to me to consider a turtle neck sweater sexy, but I guess it is pretty short and once the belt is added to make it a 'dress' it does give more of a little black dress vibe. What is Tao the CEO of and what era does she live in?

[applebun]

Heheheh here comes the interesting stuff… So, Tao’s parents are crazy rich and own a company, but surprisingly, Tao is not the CEO of that. In fact, her parents have disowned her for marrying a man they did not approve of. Now, the time and place she lives in is China, in the late 30s… in the middle of what is essentially the prelude to World War Two… and she is no one other than the “CEO” of a resistance group. She’s really badass!

[Leyelle]

That's not that surprising. Being the CEO of your parents' company would be nepotism in most cases XDD

[applebun]

Her parents would absolutely do that though. She actually has two little brothers and one of them will get the ENTIRE company once the parents are retired. He had to enter an arranged marriage though and he and his wife absolutely hate each other, so that has its massive downsides too. The other brother was originally planned to be the heir but he quit the family business lol

[Leyelle]

does the other brother work with Tao now or do something else?

[applebun]

Both brothers work with Tao now, obviously undercover because they don’t want to be arrested and have war crimes committed against them the one who gets the company is a pilot, and the other one provides shelter to any refugees that ask for help… which is currently Mina (the FL) and her brother!

[Leyelle]

I've never gotten any art made of Mick, and I've not had much made of Texas, so if anyone is interested in a trade for one of these two, I'm down (I literally have not redrawn Mick since the first time I drew her 4 or 5 months ago lol)

[Leyelle]

I just made a new OC, and I'm dying to see her someone else's style. Don't worry, I wouldn't draw your character in her outfit, it's bland XD

[Leyelle]

two more outfits to add to the mix. I'm seriously considering giving Mental Soup a reoccurring cast (of representative characters XD.) What do ya'll think?

[Leyelle]

This queen is new, but I guess I like drawing...arm warmers? Made of destroyed sweaters XD
