This maybe weird to ask what does all your version of the WGP racers look like in human form? And what HeadCanon’s you got for them?

This isn't weird at all! When I got your question, it really got me thinking about what the WGP racers - minus Lightning McQueen - look like humanized, and I already had a draft of them in an old sketchbook of mine. But I decided to spice it up a little. ⚠️TW⚠️: MENTIONS AND VISUALS OF SELF HARM!

In my last post, I made an art piece of Shu Todoroki humanized, so I took that and put it in his model sheet. I made the Ka-Riu dragon more present on his right side, and less present on his left, similar to his car counterpart. He's probably the only racer with belts on his boots, and he's also the only one without fingerless gloves, rather gloves that cover his entire hands. He suffers from self-esteem and self-worth issues, which are the breaking points for his mental health. Not only does he suffer from those issues, he also suffers from anxiety, which he developed from the World Grand Prix scandal, resulting him in having panic attacks. He uses makeup and concealer on scars that show, so the media won't have a field day with him.

I imagine he listens to Japanese pop music a lot, and he likes reading in his spare time. He likes to visit Japanese cherry blossom gardens, because it soothes his anxiety and calms his nerves, and he loves boba (It's one of his guilty pleasures). Song: Anxiety by Besmorph and the Tech Thieves.

Francesco Bernoulli's humanized design was a near-instant design for him. I imagine he has this long curly hair that reaches almost up to his chin on one side, and the other side meets his eyes. Unlike the rest of his fellow WGP racers, his racing suit is open - Similar to how his car counterpart has open wheels. (See what I did there?) Like Shu, he does have scars, which he got from his time grieving for his papa before he got some sense knocked into him. As I explained in previous posts, Francesco lost his papa during a race and he didn't receive the news until after. His coping mechanisms were unhealthy, and his way of training for races was exhausting his body. Giuseppe managed to talk to him, and he has healthier coping mechanisms to deal with his grief now. I think he's a good cook, because Mama Bernoulli taught him, and he's 100% pansexual. He did have a little crush on Lightning McQueen, and he does flirt with him every time, because he's a hopeless romantic. He's probably good friends with Luigi and Guido, and they would probably have spirited conversations. Song: Looking at Me by Sabrina Carpenter

Miguel Camino was the most fun to do, in terms of design. I had fun doing his Spanish flag, and you can see it's present EVERYWHERE on his racing suit. I made the top half resemble a toreador jacket, as it connects to his past career as a toreador before he became a racer. He also wears toreador boots, which he first got in his early days as a toreador, so he wears them almost all the time. Miguel has a few scars from bullfighting, and he also has a few from the Porto Corsa incident.

He does bullfight in his spare time when he's not training for a race, and I imagine he has a real competitive streak that scares even Francesco at times. Song: Living La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin or Sugar by Maroon 5

Carla Velosa....I quit on her three times.

No matter how many times I watched her turntable on Youtube, I still had a hard time distinguishing the details on her car. I couldn't tell if the primary color was a light yellow or somewhere around white, but I'm mostly satisfied with her design for now. I wanted to show that her suit sparkles, because she's figuratively and literally a star when she hits the dance floor. She has silver studs on her boots, because on her tire rims, there are silver studs on there. The blue is lined along her suit, instead of in a gradient. I think she loves to do dancing in her spare time. She probably took dance classes when she was a kid, and the passion to dance just stuck with her throughout her entire life. You can even see her dancing when you play her turntable on youtube; There's music playing on there, and she's dancing along to it! Being the only girl in the WGP group, she's fierce and it only gives her a chance to prove what she can really do under the hood. Song: Just Dance by Lady Gaga and Colby O' Donis

Max Schnell was probably one of the easiest to do in terms of design. I put the German flag on most of his chest with the World Torque Championship League right into the center. Since he's mostly this dark purple, I wanted to make the German flag present on certain parts of his racing suit, and I put a mini one on his shoes, too.

Since he's an engineer, I imagine he has a masters degree in mechanical engineering and he uses those to modify his race car, and make any repairs on it if he can. He knows a lot about the mechanics of a car and how it works, and he loves to study the track before a a race, so he knows exactly how he should approach it.

Song: I Like Me Better by Lauv

I kinda had a hard time with Rip Clutchgoneski, mainly with his secondary colors, but I was able to make it work.

I wanted the red and green to extend from his chest to his right shoulder, and it kind of goes down his sleeve in this sort of wave instead of in a straight line. The green and red on his left sleeve covers most of the orange there, and as for the pants, the flag is less present there. I wanted to give Rip hair that reaches up to his shoulders and I also wanted to make it look a bit scruffy with a small braid on the left side.

Rip has a really optimistic personality that he gets from his parents, mostly from his mom. While his dad told him to work hard to achieve his goal, his mom was the one to assure him that even if he doesn't win his races, he'll always be their champ because they're his number one fans. Along with being able to compete internationally for the first time in his career, it's this kind of reassurance that he always has a smile on his face - That and it gives him the chance to prove that someone from New Rearendia can do anything. He always wanted to be a racer when he grew up, it's his dream.

Being trans masc for Rip, his parents were really supportive, because it gives them the opportunity to love him even more. He got top surgery when he was 19 years old, and transitioned when he was around 14 years old.

Song: This is Home by Cavetown

Raoul Caroule was fun to do, and also the easiest. Since his car counterpart I wanted the suit to have this spray-paint effect all over in this splash of color, and I wanted his hair to be this light blonde color that goes almost to white that is tied back with a dark blue headband.

Raoul is an adrenaline junkie that's worse than Miguel. He thrives from danger, but only when it doesn't put his life in danger. He and Max are close to each other, and loves rally with a fiery passion. He visits his old friends from Cirque du Voiture during his off season when he can, and he loves doing stunts just for the hell of it.

Song: Drag Me Down by One Direction

Nigel Gearsely's design was the simplest I could do, which is why his racing suit doesn't look as busy as the others. It's just dark green, with light green going down his sleeves, pants and chest, with yellow on his gloves and on the center of his chest.

He likes tea, and he uses the terms such as "chap", "bloke", and mate" whenever possible. Out of the WGP gang, he's not that much of an adrenaline junkie, but since he has this catchphrase "Right then, let me at that track!" I imagine he's real excited whenever he gets to race and he's confident that he'll win every time - Or that he'll place in podium finish, at least. He's best friends with Lewis Hamilton and probably Max Schnell.

Song: Sunflower by Post Malone and Swae Lee

Why am I just now realizing how similar his suit is Nigel's-

I think I had more fun with Lewis Hamilton's hair than I was supposed initially. I put those gold charms and accessories in his hair, but those charms are more present at the front than they are on the back, as you can the charms are at the end of his braids. I got the inspiration from Pinterest to put those charms in his hair, and in case it's hard to tell, his updo is half-up, half-down.

I didn't want to make his suit black or a lighter shade of it, so instead, I made his suit purple-black with a gold color instead of a neon yellow to make it agreeable with the primary color.

He prefers coffee over tea, and when he drank it once in Nigel's presence, it made Nigel upset. He's not ashamed of that tooth gap of his, and whenever he's around Jeff, he gets all excited because those two are like peas in a pod. Lewis and Jeff are in a happy, healthy romantic relationship, and I like to think they started dating a year after the events of the WGP.

Jeff Gorvette was kind of hard to do. I tried to make the flag look like it's moving on his racing suit, but I could never get it right, so I just settlled it for going straight down. There's more stars on his chest than there are on his pants, the blue is only present on his chest with the red being present on his pants.

Jeff and Lewis are - as I already said - are in a healthy and happy romantic relationship. I think he was the first one to confess his feelings to Lewis. The only reason he was able to was because Miguel told him to go for it, because it's better to get it off his chest, even if there was a chance Lewis wasn't going to reciprocate those feelings. When Lewis did reciprocate, Jeff probably cried because he had been holding it up for so long and the anxiety and stress finally caught up to him at that moment.

Besides being in a heathy relationship, Jeff is best friends with Lightning, Miguel and Nigel. He'd probably be the most extroverted out of the WGP gang if Rip didn't beat him by that record by befriending every single racer on day one at the WGP welcoming party in Tokyo.

❤️🦊A small Vere Drabble for Valentines day:

A/N: the Kuras and Mhin version of this is in the making I'm sorry Leander/Ais fans I deadass cannot write for them that well or just didn't get inspired that much for this one

Ok on with the fic have a nice meal Vere fans

There is literally nothing you can do to impress this guy. As someone who is probably already getting whatever he wants- and as someone who is VERY extravagant- perhaps the best course of action is to get an emotional gift. And if you can, making an emotional gift. Your hands turn the pen over, fiddling with it as you wait for inspiration to strike. There are some sketches, badly drawn in your opinion, that lay there. Some words written down, but none of them seem to convey how your really feel. It is exhausting at best and frustrating at worst. You had decided to write a letter and sketch Vere as a gift. But so far, your efforts have not been too fruitful. You leaned back on the chair, sighing as you decided to rest your eyes for a bit.

Then you felt it.

The presence of something heavy, cold and tickling. You opened your eyes to see Vere, who balanced himself on the back of your chair. His blood red hair draping itself over your face. “This looks ugly as shit.” He said as he brought one of the discarded sketches to your face. “This also looks too flat. The neck is weird. Hair strokes are too messy.” Yeowch. Judging by the reaction, Vere didn’t seem to understand that the sketch was supposed to be him.

“Maybe before all of that, you explain to me how you broke into my room?” You raised an eyebrow. Were you surprised? No. Do you nearly feel like exploding over the close proximity to the fox man? Definitely. “Oh darling please- I wouldn’t consider this a break in. Especially because the door was unlocked. You live like this all the time?” Vere clicked his tongue in disapproval. “I’m just being a good friend. Checking in and whatnot.” Vere carelessly went through your room. “Mm, you need to move out.” He kicked away one of the crumpled pieces of paper. “And clean.” Annoyed, he picked up the paper, smudged ink making the letters hard to read. He squinted for a while, holding the paper up to the dimming sunlight from the window.

His tail twitched. “ This hand-writing is shit too.” He came closer. “Who’s your secret fan?” Vere flashed a biting smile, devoid of glee. “No one. That isn’t from someone-“ you continued on with your work, trying to be as nonchalant as possible. Suddenly Vere reached for your pen, holding your hand along with it when adding a few strokes. It seemed the letter was swiftly discarded once Vere couldn't get the reaction he wanted from you. “See, that adds dimension. Left eye corner needs to be smaller and the inner corner is also slimmer. See how it's not that flat of a face anymore.” Gosh, who did this guy think he was? The arrogance to just take over your sketch- “Focus on the drawing MC. You forget I can tear your artery from here. I’m doing you and the bastard who’s gonna get this sketch a favor.” Vere’s hair tickled your neck. Considering his face was right next to your neck, and teeth in your artery in the blink of an eye, you decided not to comment. But since when was Vere this up-close in personal with you? With anyone? Was he drunk? He smelled fine. Ais wasn’t even in the Wet Wick. So why would he linger in your room of all places?

Perhaps your unspoken fondness of him skewed your perception of the kind of actions Vere would take. Because you feel it’s alright. You’re smarter than to let this moment be slip away from suspicion. A fox rarely comes to anyone for visits. So who were you to deny this maniac of a fox your company?

#this was supposed to be for valentines i was late.#ignore that.#For a Kuras girlie i really enjoy writing/drawing vere #vere touchstarved #touchstarved fanfic #touchstarvedgame #touchstarved headcanons #touchstarved vere #vere #touchstarved #peli writes #can the fandom name for Vere fams be Verectims #like vere's victims #i think im funny sometimes #ok ill leave now #vere x reader
