actually coolest thing about ebony is that not only are his eyelights solid white but they are also extremely teeny tiny which means if i dont color them & just leave them bone color i dont think a single person would actually notice
#trousled rambles#its such a small thing but yall have no idea how much work this saves me actually#do u have any idea how much extra steps it takes to color in eyelights in character portraits when they constantly move around#i have to color the entire eye socket shape just to not have 25 eye layers#and then also have different versions for half-lidded expressions of varying degrees#and thank god i can color in the eye sockets in the lineart itself because if they have real eyes its a fucking nightmare#but with this one i can just . erase a little dot. and then im done. what bliss#now that i think about it i dont think ive ever actually talked about all the little annoying stuff that goes into making talk sprites huh#um. it takes a lot of layer tricks#the most recent one for russ from like 2020 has 96 layers for about 9 poses if that puts anything into perspective lol#i dont even think i used all of em 😔
