Description
Finally a completed drawing of George's boyfriend, Lyle. I made some alterations to his design but it could change in the future. (Especially the antlers. I keep going back and forth on different antler designs).Related content

As a transman that doesn't have top surgery yet it's really kind of nice to see a transmale OC who also hasn't sdfsg. I really mean it seriously, it feels super nice because it's something I'm sure we're all self conscious about and, like.. Whenever I see transmen pre-top surgery it just kinda makes me feel more normal, y'know? I DON'T KNOW KIND OF SILLY, BUT I LOVE THIS OC.

aaaaw thank you ;///u///;
I'm really glad you are able to identify with the character. That's really awesome, not silly at all! If I were writing a story or comic with him in it I would want to plan him to have top surgery eventually, but not until very late in his life after he was really settled down, steady income, etc.

I think that's great and realistic, I mean, here in Oregon medical care will be covering transhealth related things (bless) but even so, like.. SDSG I'm just not ready, I guess. I've only been on T for 4 months, so I'm still kinda early in the game aND IVE NEVER HAD A SURGERY OH GOD IM SO SCARED OF SURGERIES.. I definitely want top surgery someday but God all mighty guide me when that day comes.. OTL. But yeah, you don't see a lot of transmale OCs that are pre-top surgery! It seems to be the go to to represent us and it's like WELL SOME OF US HAVEN'T GOTTEN THERE QUITE YET. The other day I met a transman who was four years in and he said he doesn't even want to get top surgery, himself, but he was hecka manly handsome beard babe and I had no idea he was trans until he told me, haha. I mean, I think most transmen want to at least get top surgery, but regardless It's nice to see it portrayed in an OC even if the OCs intent later in life is to get an OP!
Thus ending Louie's ramble omfg.

Oh yeah for sure its totally legitimate to not want it as well for a variety of reasons. I think I've seen even less characters in a situation where they can't or don't want surgery. I'm trying to remember any at all actually haha.
congrats on starting t! c: (its less than a year so its still starting right? haha) I'm not sure of the exact risks involved with mastectomies but anytime you voluntarily get yourself cut into its always important to make sure you are well informed and comfortable with the operation. So yeah you have plenty of time to get ready and acclimate yourself to the decision I'm sure. I've actually had surgery once before but it was when I was a baby so I don't remember haha.

Ah, thank you so much! Its kind of scary how many drawings of ftm characters use ace bandages...
Irish elk are so cool *u* I wanted to make a really tall character and irish elk was just too perfect. Not only are they gigantic but they're antlers are crazy huge and awesome!
Anyways I'm really glad you like the character... if only he were easier for me to draw haha

it really is scary, a lot of younger people dont realize how terrible it can be for your health!
they really are so cool omg, idk if you like taxidermy or anything like that, but if you google Ken Walker's irish elk. He made a replica irish elk and it's the coolest piece I've seen to be honest
im sure he'll get easier to draw the more you draw him! good practice c:
