RAAHHH I FORGOT HER FUCKING TATTOOOOOSS THEY'RE MY FAVOURITE PART NOOOO everyone pretend they're there

:D jay for the character design ask game?

YAHOO i was hoping for this one um i did not know what to do for fanon jay so i made her silly. sorry.

anyways breaking my silence i do not like jay's canon design... sorry everyone she looks cool but it's more like a costume design than a character design and they were too busy trying to get her a nice outfit to make her look like an actual human being wearing clothing a person would wear. does not feel like jay to me at all she would never choose appearance over practicality in her clothing choices and they had her in a heeled boots, heavy ass chains, hoop earrings and a corset????? there's nothing about her design that indicates that she's a ranger/artificer at the most basic level and there is even less to indicate her actual personality not my jay ferin sorry

#prev!#i do like that interpretation but it definitely feels too permanent at the moment for it to feel legitimate enough for me y'know :')#i would love to see her experiment with style!#but within the confines of her story being told in a podcast with very occasional design updates?#it's really difficult to showcase gradual development in that way because every update is a completely new reform #that would work fantastic if this was a show or film and you could see her costume design shift over the course of the storyline #but unfortunately the nature of the medium we're experiencing her character through doesn't really allow for it #which is where fanartists can make up for it! but canon art can't really keep up #thank you by the way i'm very glad you like my jay :DD i love her to death and back #sorry to ramble at you lmao i am very passionate about character design vs. clothing design #i think it's very interesting and important to distinguish the difference
