Poppy Crown With Shadows

[yutaan]

When the alter ego you constructed for yourself as an escapist fantasy is stronger and cooler and better than you, and also lately sometimes seems to feel a little more real than you are[?]

My piece from the 2023 Battle Damage zine! Rita's mechanical proxy body hasn't fared too well in this most recent fight. Luckily, her comparatively tiny boyfriend Dio is a brilliant mechanic, who, as soon as he stops panicking, will get right on fixing her back up!

Happy Valentine's Day! I drew my Tall Girl x Short Boy OCs to celebrate. 💙💚

Happy Halloween! 🐈‍⬛

Some coloring experiments, with Dio (and his unsettling eyes) as my test subject!

I can't believe I have to ask this with my own mouth and type this with my own two hands but.... will you ever drop the rita+dio heights 👀?!?!? Honestly I'm jk because they have that mechafiction thing going on so it's nice to leave it up to imagination but I'm just tickled pink the way you refer to him as tiny or 'comparatively' small. Rather than an actual height, is Dio small compared to the average person or just his super cool and adoring, amazing and loving tall gf Rita? From the mash up drawings I've seen, Dio is always the smallest person on the page :3 I love a confident little man in charge so I adore Dio and Rita and their dynamic <3 The caption about him being in distress because his gf was out of shot in distress had me cracking up lolol

Darlingest anon I cackled SO hard when I got this ask; thank you for being interested in my motorcycle kids!! And you are in luck: Even though I usually don’t get too fussed about how tall characters are, this is the one project I have where I did work out out everybody's heights. If you don't want to know exact answers, I'll just say that Dio is, in fact, Tiny specifically when compared to Rita. He's of pretty average height! Even a little taller than average! She's just QUITE tall.

And if you do want the exact measurements, Dio is 5'5 (and a half)! Rita is 6’3 in her bio body and 6’4 in her mechanical proxy body so next to her he simply looks like a bean rather than a beanpole. AND the rest of the main cast actually ALSO skews quite tall so he just… appears short most of the time. He doesn’t mind! It's rad! His girlfriend is tall and amazing and can lift him up with one arm and he is THRILLED about it.

Rita and Dio are in their late teens in the main part of the story, so it’s possible they both could still grow slightly? They’ve pretty much reached their full adult heights, though; it would be a very minor difference.

A crop of Dio from the illustration I did for the Battle Damage zine! He usually has no problem keeping calm in high-stress situations, but he’s pretty distressed here... what could be the cause?? Is it that his girlfriend is lying just off-screen, ALSO in distress???

Happy Valentine’s Day from Rita and Dio, resident Tall Buff Cute Girl and Her Comparatively Tiny Boyfriend! When you’ve got an easily-banged-up android body, having a brilliant mechanic on-hand (or rather, hand-in-hand) is a sweet perk!

RITA AND DIO RITA AND DIO RITA AND DIO THEY'RE BAAAAAACK 🥺💕💕💕

:D I am filled with warm fuzzies that they bring you so much joy, dearest anon! Here, have the first scribble I did of them during a lunch break at my retail job back in 2014:

[yutaan]

I just scrolled through nearly a decade of motorcycle mafia mechs & have come to the conclusion that I love them & cannot wait to see more of them 😍

Thank youuuu I love my motorcycle kids ♡♥

[yutaan]

Eeeee look what arrived today!!! I love it so much!

:DDDD Thank you for ordering it!! I hope you have a lovely (and full-of-hurt-comfort) time!!

I was looking over my samples for my brush pen/digitally-colored commissions, and it occurred to me that the cel-shaded waist-up sample on there is pretty old - it’s actually one of the first commissions I ever drew! I still like the old drawing, but it doesn’t really accurately represent how I shade anymore. So starting from the next commission round, this drawing of Rita will be the new sample! ☆

[yutaan]

I got some (cautiously) optimistic news, so in celebration I doodled a happy little thing of my kids! Drawing Rita and Dio always lifts my spirits (much like Rita lifts her comparatively tiny boyfriend) ✿
