I've been seeing a lot of people redrawing their old work and I wanted to give it a try :D after this I will be doing another one because I've never had such a dopamine boost (or it could be me having my first energy drink in a month)
I honestly can't say for sure when the first one was done, but if I were to take a guess... 2016? It's when I got my first pair of markers. I loved drawing mermaids at the time bc it let me draw long flowey hair while avoiding legs haha, and this particular drawing was my favorite 🧜♀️
Remembered to work in a higher resolution this time too haha
DIRK: I've been waiting for this day for fuck knows how long.
DIRK: I'm not waiting one second more.
DIRK: This is it, bro. Once I take this thing off, it's go time. I'm getting my top surgery.
DAVE: sweet
DIRK: Chop these bad boys off like they're a fuckin' slashfic. The kind of shit you'd find on AO3.
DIRK: The kind of shit you-
DAVE: hold the fucking phone
DAVE: now pick that phone right the fuck back up
DAVE: put it up to your ear and listen closely
DAVE: no telemarketer bullshit this is the real deal
DAVE: im not chopping you up again
DIRK:
DIRK: Oh.
DIRK: Uh, why?
DAVE: sburb is over and im not in the mood to start real life operation next
DAVE: ill show you where i got mine done we can start there
DIRK: Ok.
DAVE: nervous?
DIRK: Yeah. I guess in the end, all I really wanted was for you to be there, bro.
DAVE: you know i will be
DAVE: wouldnt miss it for the world
DAVE: where doing it man
DIRK: Where making this happen.
I just couldn't resist drawing coconut Peri after I told you guys about that idea.
Really just imagine Peri taking inspiration from Juandissimo and secretly gives Dev his memory back by conking Dev on the head via his coconut-disguised self.
Think about how confused Dev would be by suddenly getting conked with a periwinkle coconut in the middle of the city.
