Your buggy design is so excellent because not only does he have that „Has a good amount of body fat but you also KNOW he’s fairly strong and muscular“ kind of Strongman physique, but I also can see him being the type of guy who people don’t expect to be as agile as he is. Like, even without chopchop powers. People see him and think „I’ll just need to move faster than him and tire him ou-„ and they already got hit with a pretty nasty fakeout right hook. Not even mentioning how surprisingly fast he can move, even if lots of said movement is him trying to run away from something and accompanied by silly noises. You look into one direction for one second and see something approaching, before turning to look at him only to see a Buggy shaped dustcloud and realizing he’s already half a mile away from you.

(Also I don’t know why but I love how your Shanks looks almost the opposite. Someone who’s strong and physically fit in some ways but also sounds like… someone tapdancing on a bag of potato chips every morning when he gets out of bed and stretches. It’s all just really good shit I gotta say)

this is such a beautiful analysis of how i draw them im nodding in agreement as if im not the one who depicts them this way. so true bestie sooo so so fuckin true. right on the nose (HA!)

basically my thoughts for buggy when im drawing him are “i will make this guy into someone who i am so attracted to” and thats basically it. i want that fat boy. also yeah hes strong to me like he detaches his arms to use as body part “canons” but im under the assumption that he’d still have to be able to pack a decent punch himself if he wanted to deal true damage w his devil fruit. kind of in the same vein of how i believe robin is so lowk jacked bc i think her flowered limbs are only as strong as the originals. anyway buggy works on toon logic as you said with the dustcloud. it may seem impossible for him to pull off but if its funny enough for the bit well he can do anything he sets his heart to. i truly believe this

as for shanks well yes i dont have much to say you laid it out pretty perfectly. that guy does not have a graceful bone in his body he lumbers and grunts and scratches his ass . hes like a mountain beast or some sort to me. hes strong and fast but you’ll know when hes coming hes not much for subtlety. buggy values his means of escape and i think with his devil fruit comes a certain elegance to it if i can be so forthright. well whatever i think im just in love with that clown and it affects the way i percieve him maybe im crazy
