Now with video!
This is Philas who is a character created by @wolfertinger666 who allowed me to make my own version of him. I loved what he wrote about his character so i will quote it directly: "Philas represents the boys who aren't allowed to, or don't want to change their bodies, but live and fight like hell to be a man."
So i named this figure "boys will be boys"!
I tried to directly copy the original style for him at first but i really didn't do it justice and because this figure is for my own shelf i decided to chill a little with this.
Since i already took so many liberties with the design i decided to have some fun with the paint too and shade him really roughly and with a very limited palette, i think it really fits the "emotion" of this piece.
Do you ever talk to someone and they bring up trans men and it becomes very clear very quickly the only trans men they have talked too are the rich white trans guys who can afford to fully transition at a young age and didn’t have to deal with most of the shit other trans guys had too.
Like no I don’t think the dude who got top surgery at 16 is an accurate representation of every single trans guy ever.
“why are all your friends transfems?” why do the flowers bloom each year? why do the rivers continue to flow on and on? why do people sing? why do you smile? because they’re fucking beautiful and my world wouldn’t be the same without them. I love my friends so much.
