So I've been following @indieyuugure's The Mutation Situation (which is very very good), and after reading her post about how the turtles can't have it all, the next time I listened to this song this idea assaulted me like a vision.
+BST project: Two concept tests of Jonathan Crane and his office/lab. This was an exercise in testing Crane's design, thinking about color palettes, practicing digital painting techniques, and working on lighting and shading. I also wanted practice on converting backgrounds to different lighting conditions, so I did a lamplight and moonlight version-- working vs brooding. (painted in CSP)
After finishing that last big comic project (and drawing my IO-sonas so much) I figured it was time to give Riley's Fear and Joy another shot! at least as a change of pace before drawing my next comic project, anyway. <3
She’d been a whirlwind in his neatly structured life, a burst of colours in a rather bleak landscape; the best friend he never knew he was always meant to have, until he was pouring his heart out to her, and she just held him tighter.

one of the biggest ways they sidelined rhett this season imo was by skipping over the impact that perry jumping into the hole/being gone must have had on him. we didn't get to see any of his emotional processing of that info.
we know that rhett sometimes says or does impulsive things, but we also know that he cares very deeply about the impact of his behavior and words on others (look to his numerous apologies from season one). his last interaction with perry was getting into that big fight. he told him he's the reason rebecca left and even more relevantly that they'd all be better off without him. no matter how angry he is with perry or how justified he felt to say those things, you KNOW that's weighing on him given what perry decided to do shortly after and we didn't get to see a bit of that this season
i understand that they don't want to rehash the same plot points over and over and can't show every person being informed about everything, but of all the characters reactions to forgo, skipping over the person whose fate and entire season one arc was the most interconnected with perry's seems very misguided to me. and then not showing the effect of perry’s actions on him in a more concrete way throughout the season is even more egregious. i guess they want his hesitancy to leave and that one scene of him looking upset in bed to suffice, but it really doesn't
