is there any particular reason as to why your gen 2 iterators have more human-like anatomy? or do you just like how it looks? i kept looking at euros and finding quite odd how he has human feet even though humans (supposedly) don't actually exist in the rw universe
while i was designing them all i was thinking about was "wouldn't it be funny if ancients got Really close to inventing the human shape in a world where that shape has no root, but then were like 'mm.. nah! this shape Sucks let's try something Else' and pushed all that We are off the table in favor of the fucked up lookin Gen 3 designs? ...yeah. yeah it would. irl humans aren't aware enough that we are in the same bag as horses when it comes to shit evolution lol, lessa goooo"
BUT! i will admit to u right here and right now without any issue- when it comes to Gen 2 feet, the very very human like shape that i've been using lately wasn't originally in the plan! those peets were meant to look more like shoes. if u look at the big OC post u can still see that as well! (Fish even still has very shoe-like feet. he didn't change cuz he's an old fuck for a Gen 2)
the design came closer to the look of our bare feet while i was poking at Suns' design in their prime. since i wanted only to put down some ideas for their outfit + maybe look into the feelings their vibes and appearance should evoke, i went with a different style than i usually go with while drawing itties to reach for a more... ethereal and flowy, maybe? feel to it n that included the feet being drawn Like That
i'll give in, here's one of my more successful attempts at 'em in their prime (not the completely finalized design tho)
Tumblr media
i REALLY liked it n because of my Happye i decided to draw other Gen 2s with that as well. so yes. it's cuz my eyeball thinks it's nice 👁
(but also like,, those toes r not separate, that shit is more like neat lil painted lines for the sake of the imagery JSNFJNKS)
