Just out of curiosity, are you planning to make an Orc character for Orctober? And if so, are you planning to beef/fatten him?
OH i got this ask before i posted my big red photoset and i didnt see it lmao
i originally didnt think of making big red an orc because of orctober but it turned out to that orctober was happening so it was a bonus! i’ll definitely be doing more of him as october rolls around. now, fat orcs are something else entirely to consider…
it’s kinda hard to explain, a lot of it is just me liking the aesthetic of masks/helmets in context, like superheroes/knights/bikers, etc. cuz i like the head shapes they give. some of it is the mystery, bc you can’t see a person’s appearance/expressions behind it so artists usually have to add other visual cues or have people use their imagination and i think it’s cute. mostly i think i just like the concept that the masks hide the face so they add a sort of detachment from features
