Neopolitan WIP
🕑 Added 2021-03-09 17:53:52 +0000 UTCHey everyone I'm here with the WIP for March's 5th place winner Neopolitan!
For Neo I'm still considering what kind of pose to go with for her, but I have decided her main image will be her having eaten team RWBY. I did about 5 or 6 different sketches and so far this pose and angle are the one I like most. I think this one shows off her small stature and enormous belly well, but I will continue brainstorming. It also lets me have some room for team RWBY's comments on their situation.
Regardless I will have Neo all done Monday the 15th after the mid-month update that same day.
But before that I'll have 3 patron sketches to share on Thursday the 11th!
This is a work in progress so some elements of the compositions are subject to change.
Enjoy!

That's a fair suggestion Lyxert, I'll consider it down the road. I want to see how this one year cool down goes for at least a few months before I consider any tweaks.

Besides, the final product will be amazing either way!
Magnus Canis
You do what you want! I’m just happy you’re considering it.

That's true, Neo is rather short and with all four in there her tummy might be larger than I have now. An as for any alts, there might be a smooth belly version / stuffing one at this time but I'll need to focus on the main image before I get to that :3

I'm still considering what kind of alts to do, but if there are ones stuffing is most likely.

Def agree with the choice of positioning, both for freedom to add RWBY's comments and for how well it shows off the whole "serving" of the ice-cream girl XD. Posing's great too - how the hell is it that even as a wireframe concept Neo's pose radiates smugness? Also noticed those scribbles behind her feet - guessing she disarmed them(?) Only thing I can't be sure on commenting for is wondering how big the final belly will be - can't quite judge "depth" from just the wireframes alone, but I think Neo's smaller than even Ruby (the shortest of the bunch), so squeezing down all four into there might make for an even bigger tum. though again, I can't really tell how wide it'd be from the front without shadows and texture, so most of the mass might be bulging towards the screen to obfuscate the true size - basically the short version's I can't tell for sure ^_^; Hope this doesn't come across as rambling; tend to have trouble truncating stuff. Only other thing to wonder on is if there's any chance of a post-digestion alt or not ^_^

Yeah I agree the year cooldown should be reserved for the top 3 and maybe the 4&t5th slots are like a 2-3 months cool down
Lanturn
Yea metal does what they want heh
MrMetroid
Assuming the same theme is gone with, yeah ^_^; Speaking of next times; it might be a bit late to say, but I kinda feel like the yearlong cooldown's a bit imbalanced for 4-5th place. For 1-3rd place, the long cooldown's offset by getting dedicated comic strips - runner-ups getting concept sketches is offset by being re-eligible for the poll on a way shorter cooldown (a month, i think?); for 4-5th, I think 6-8 months might have fit better than the same cooldown a full comic gets(?). That said, that's just me - not gonna assume what does and doesn't work for Metal's side of things ^_^;
Lanturn
*pets head* yea no worries things happen oh well will just wait for next time
MrMetroid
Honestly figured that meant RWBY characters had a good shot to be that popular - again, didn't know 2B and Bulma were gonna be in this time. Also didn't realize a yearlong cooldown was gonna be put on anyone in the top-5 from this month onward - thought that was only gonna be for the comic-strip winners; again, my own fault. Don't need any help kicking myself there T_T
Lanturn
Yea you should’ve waited since metal just did team RWBY
MrMetroid
Yeah, I was bemoaning that same thing myself when I saw she was up against freaking Bulma and 2B - woulda saved suggesting her for later if I'd known that'd happen. ^_^;
Lanturn
Personal opinion but I feel like something like that should’ve been saved for a 3 panel comic but still looks nice heh too bad she didn’t get more oh well you win some you lose some
Magnus Canis
This is perfect for Neo, Metal! May I ask if there’ll be stuffing alts of this? I’d love to see her get stuffed by the team in both meanings of the word!
