Nova diplomatic relations WIP
Added 2021-09-01 02:48:13 +0000 UTCa commission requested, based off the general idea of the "Nova goes into diplomatic mission and meet a cat she likes"
that was proposed as story to be worked as SFW comic alternative (abetment won, I think it was alright)
but I guess Nova having some romantic interest is something that would be interesting?
this isn't really canon, but it's how a reader imagines how this would go heh....
Prime clans got gooming rituals to show trust, specially after missions, what do you think? you like this idea? of you think Nova wouldn't be much into it???
This version of the drawing is what's going to be drawn, since it shows more nudity (Patreon exclusivity in this past batch of commissions)

A less showing alternative is how I envisioned it:
Nova would be a little shy in these kind of situation... but she's feeling interest for this guy heh!
Comments
I like this culture idea and exchanges.

2021-09-01 03:26:44 +0000 UTCIn general I think clothes wouldn't be as comfortable for them due heat. But i got to make compromises sometimes, I enjoy clothing and suits for my characters 😌

2021-09-01 03:10:15 +0000 UTCI imagine it's a bit of a relief once in the privacy of their own sanctum. I often wonder how comfortable clothing really is for fully-furred beings, and if there would need to be any changes to make clothes more comfortable to wear. Not to mention the thermal factor, I see fur as being the equivalent to wearing a full set of clothes (or heavy winter clothes for the arctic critters). I often wonder if wearing regular clothes adds an uncomfortable thermal load, or if clothes are just designed in some way which doesn't interfere with normal thermal shedding.

2021-09-01 03:08:12 +0000 UTCin the comic itself none of this aspects are important. but Xenos share much of human culture, including some of their taboos. Nudity is still not fully accepted as it mostly seen as something odd when they compare themselves with real animals. still, I do think some of them like to be nude in privacy, and I like the idea of some share more intimate moments to behave differently

2021-09-01 03:02:02 +0000 UTCit's just a commission!

2021-09-01 03:00:12 +0000 UTCI do wonder. Clothing and nudity taboos are largely a "human thing". I imagine that the earlier xenos who had the most direct contact with humans would have had these taboos engrained into them (if anything, humans are curiously distracted by ... things). But after the humans "disappeared" (if I remember right?), how many generations would such perceptions endure?

2021-09-01 02:59:24 +0000 UTCwill this become a nsfw comic? i hope so. :)

2021-09-01 02:59:04 +0000 UTCYes, younger Nova in this one. She's mostly a serious character in pictures, but now she looks more naive
Andrés Barra
2021-09-01 02:54:25 +0000 UTCShe carries more emotion in this than the previous drawings, a younger more naive Nova?

2021-09-01 02:53:24 +0000 UTCYeah, it make sense and it a interesting thing to imagine
Andrés Barra
2021-09-01 02:53:21 +0000 UTCSounds totally plausible to me. I bet it's doubly so for the cat-types, given how RL cats often groom one another
