What Could Have Been · 11:26pm Mar 1st, 2021
*Looking out window wishfully*
"Uh, dad? You okay?"
"I'm fine Pharynx, just thinking..."
"About what?"
"I wasn't there for you..."
"Oh, this again."
"Phar, shush. Go on dad."
"I just...I never got to see you two as nymphs... or babies... and I'm quite sure your mother wouldn't have raised you the way I would have wanted to..."
"It's okay dad. You're here now, that's what matters."
"I know Thorax, I just... I can't stop thinking about what could have been..."
Woah—

Hm?

Nothing, it’s just the quality of the art style. It’s really good.
Meta looks younger than I expected though. And those are some tiny bug brothers.
5464550
Yeah, that's the point. It's back when Thorax and Pharynx were newborn nymphs, if Meta had been there
5464551
I know I’m just saying they’re so s m o l
5464553
Yeah, because they're cute as tiny wittle nymphs
"H-Hey!"
Anyway, those details like their fangs and wings were really hard to draw on such a small scale though
Cute
5464554
I know they were nymphs tho. I mean, it’s not like they s h r a n k
5464555
Yep
5464556
I know, I'm saying that they're cute babies
Why have Thorax and Pharynx been shrunk?
5464558
And Pharynx is still smaller than Thorax—
5464558
They're babies
5464559
Mhm!
5464560
...Let's call that a happy accident
5464556
I mean, they are changelings. It's not like they couldn't shapeshift to a smaller size.
5464565
Heh, indeed. I just wanna go hug da baby bros!
*Blushing* "U-Uh...f-fresh...?"
5464567
*Blushes and covers face*
"Hmph... not cute..."
5464570
*Blushing*
"Fine..."
"Hey Phar! I found more baby pictures, come see!"
*Blushing* "B-Burn those!"
5464560
Lol
5464562
Last I remember, that's not how changeling babies look. Nor are they that small.
5464574
Artistic license. Besides, they're cuter this way
5464574
I like when they’re portrayed as the tiny squirmy grub babies we saw in the show.
5464579
Sunny, if you're not going to actually compliment the drawing just don't comment
5464577
They look heccin adorable like that.
5464576
I beg to differ. They may be smol, but cute? Not sure about that one chief.
5464581
How?
5464581
Yeah.

5464583
The one on the left is Pharynx, the one "waving" is Thorax
5464582
Look at the depiction of the grub 5464584 has posted. Notice how it looks like an actual baby and not just a small adult changeling. It looks like it can actually develop into an adult instead of just get bigger.
5464587
Well, I mean, yeah, but I wanted to draw them as nymphs...and they do end up looking like that, remember? In the flashback scene in To Change A Changeling, it shows them as nymphs
5464588
Exactly
5464589
Then they'd be more similar to Foals, just slimmer and more bug like. Still not shrunken down.
5464592
I did my best! I never claimed to be a good artist, I just had an idea and wanted to share the finished product...
5464593
And it does look good, never said it didn't. Definitely a lot better than what I could do. Just providing some criticism and/or nitpicks is all so you can become better.
5464598
Alright, alright...*grumbles* last time I try to post my art...first Sunny now Toast...
5464599
Nope, if anything you should post it more. It does look really good.
5464602
Not according to some people Sure, I guess
5464604
I looked far and wide, up and down. I went to the ends of existence itself to look around and saw nobody saying that you shouldn't post it.
5464606
Sunny's made it clear she doesn't like it
5464609
That's what you think.
5464613
Still
5464616
No
5464628
What?
