and we flow right back into the original sketches, like NOTHING was ever changed. ain't that beautiful?
WOW, LOOK AT THAT GOOCH!!
frankly, i ended up drawing more of it than i originally planned, but it's whatever! a little bit of hoo-ha never hurt nobody! i MAY have drawn i a little bigger than it should be, but, look, i don't have a lot of experience drawing those parts, especially as a close up (regardless of how covered up it is.)
close-ups are tough in my art style!
i also wasn't sure how to colour in Leo's heart! Originally i just kept it his skin colour (the darker, blushier tone) since i imagine it beating out of his chest but still being INSIDE him, but it didn't really look right, mainly because it has a face and an arm and all, so it implies that it's out, right? but then i made it seem like his heart was literally ripping out of his chest, and that seemed too gory, and not really the vibe i was going for, so after conferencing with my artist council, we agreed that ultimately, a nice in-between was the option!
the heart is red and cartoony, and it still just seems like a silly gag and isn't at all accidentally violent and horrifying! Everyone's happy.
