Description Well, I finally admit to it. I LIKE SLASH.

Bet you never saw that coming from good ol' Sketchy, huh?
Honestly I didn't ever feel any need to tell the internet about it, because I never had a pairing that I felt was worth the trouble of potential flamers.

Then came Kodd.

Yes, KurtxTodd (or ToddxKurt) has rocked my world.
I'm sorry if it bothers some of you. But honestly, it's my art and my life, I can do what I want with it...
Unless I use my art to break the law, then I'm not really allowed...

Anyway, I hope the people that DON'T take offense to this like the art. :3

btw, if you happen to be a fan of the pairing, feel free to check out an RolePlay gone fanfic here [link]

It's a pairing of acquired taste, to be sure. Some like it, some loathe it with a passion. And sometimes the latter turns into the former. I personally thought it was the weirdest, most implausible pairing ever when I first knew it existed, but then I read a few fanfics that made that take a 180. Now it's one of my all time favs.

If we're going by how good the actual -art- is though, I would lean towards throwing up. I hadn't quite grasped the idea that heads should not make bodies look like wee little pencils at this point in life

*starry eyes* This is beautiful~ I love the texture, colours and... everything about this really XD Their expressions are beautiful...

I'm not sure if I like Todd being that thin though... I glance at his waist and think, if Kurt hugged him right now, he'd probably snap in half! XD
Talking about the one subject an artist hates to talk about, the anatomy... the arms are a bit short... a nice trick is to remember that the shoulder-to-elbow is normally as long as the torso...

But that doesn't stop me from loving their hands, and Todd's neck... and Kurt's tail, which is giving his thoughts away XD

I appreciate the complements.

Haha, to tell you the truth, I think he's too thin too. I didn't see it when I made it, but looking back, I obviously had a lot of problems I should've noticed and fixed.

Urg, Anatomy, my kryptonite!
Hmm, but I'll keep that tip in mind, the only one I really knew for arms was the 'wrists go a bit under the line the crotch is at'.

I appreciate the concrit, and I'm glad you like the pic despite the mistakes.

*laughs* Anatomy is a weakness of mine too... Even though I have it in mind when I draw, it still kills me XD
Yeah, it's hard, everyone's different too. My fingertips reach half way down my thigh, but I've got stupidly long arms XD

There's nothing wrong with being gay or liking gay relationships!

You did a good job on Kurt's expression, the placement of the eye and nose in relation to the contour are successful especially.

(Urg, my deepest apologies at answering so late. >_<)

It would be nice if society could all think like that, but sadly, there's a huge demographic of homophobes, esspecially on sites like this. *sigh*

Thanks, even though I only did this two months ago, I see several things I could've done better, but I'm still overall happy with how it looks.

Sorry my answer took so long >__<

Oh yes, even if dear little Kurt denies his attraction to the Toddster, his tail always shows his true feelings. <3

We~ll Sketchy, I never knew you liked cod. I think it tastes a little too fishy fo-- Oh wait, Kodd! Sorry, instinct. Mmm, fish!

While not my cup of tea, I have no problems with slash. After all, it makes for the best jokes ("But what'll the children look like?!") The only slash that annoys me on a regular basis is the 'Kingdom Hearts' variety. Just because the fans of that are VERY, VERY disturbing. *Shiver*

As for the picture, I love the texturing and how you did the characters. Kurt looks very cute and as usual the colors are very well-matched. I wish I could draw humanoid heads as well as you can. THE FOREHEADS! THE FFOORREEHEAADDS! *Sob*

If anyone decides to flame, the easy solution is to block. And/or track them down, destroy their garden, break the windows an-- Wait, no, don't do that please >.>

Hmm, now I want to see you draw what their children would look like o3o

I'm a Kingdom Hearts fan and I know EXACTLY what you're talking about. I stay away from all of those pairings. And I mean all. Except when it's hilarious, of course.

Even though I'm not a slash fan and like my het pairings, I'm okay with slash if it's done well. Like with Kurt and Todd. ^^

Mecha-maniac In reply to fridayivy [2010-02-11 03:04:01 +0000 UTC]

Exactly! I used to be an avid Org XIII role-player, but uh, I stopped for obvious reasons. And of course there's a huge difference between Sora and Riku doing the worm and Saix singing 'Won't Say I'm in Love' at 2X speed XD

And again I agree. You know you've done well when you make a slash piece non-slash-fans like :3

fridayivy In reply to Mecha-maniac [2010-02-11 17:27:14 +0000 UTC]

Heh, yeah, most of the fans totally ruin the characters to fit their own fantasies. In fact, the first time I heard of yaoi was when I went deeper into the KH fandom.

Me: Wow! Axel is such a dear friend, that was such a touching death scene!
Fans: OMG! THAT SCENE MEANT THAT HE LUVS ROXAS!!! <3<3<3<3
Me: WUT. DDDDD:

Yeah, if you can make a good slash pairing, that means that you can do pairings right and not mess them up and make characters OOC like most of the fandom pairings in existence. >>

Mecha-maniac In reply to fridayivy [2010-02-12 02:16:07 +0000 UTC]

Same here. Kingdom Hearts robbed me of my innocence D8 That and Harry Potter. You just HAD to say that and make every scene between Dumbledore and Harry awkward, DIDN'T you, Rowling?

Slash is indeed the worst when taken out of character. Kurt and Todd could be believable. But something like, oh, Apocalypse going "TAKE ME YOU FOOL!" to Wolverine would... Break my brain e.o



Worse yet, Mystique and Kurt. *Deep shudder*

I hope we're not spamming Sketchy's inbox D8

Actually, none of this even showed up XDDD;;;

And hey, you guys can spam me anytime you want.
Mecha, I'm really glad you don't mind the whole slash thing, I would've missed talkin' to you if you ran away screaming. XDDD

But anyway, Kindom hearts slash....
Let's not go into that.
You and Friday already said everything worth saying.

Thanks for the complements, though what really helps is that I usually ask a friend of mine how the flat colors look before taking the next step.
Foreheads... haha, funny you should say that, because a few months ago, that was one of my big weaknesses. Granted, my sideview 4heads were always better than 3/4 or front view, but still.

Oh, I KNOW what their children would look like. XDDD
Actually, via a roleplay me and my partner in crime have been doing, we did give the adult Kurt/Todd a kid, though he was adopted. (For, you see, M-preg scares us beyond all reason.)
Don't you love how fanfiction can screw up/take over people's lives? :3
