Description I basically just wanted to draw a lot of bellydancing girls, and Karkat came along for the ride. Download for the proper-sized fullview!

Don't you think that maybe, with all his PMSing and stuff, that Karkat maybe counts as one?

I was just admiring this, thinking about how clean and dynamic your lines are, when I spotted Karkat. I think my brain just blew a fuse.
Of course, I mean that in the best possible sense!

oh man, your anatomy is really, really spectacular (especially since this is only lineart, sans shading)

I am actually a bellydancer and was intending to do a Homestuck-based set cosplaying Vriska. I may decide to use your design--if I do I'll be sure to credit!

In the past week and a half, I have started bellydance lessons and and begun reading (and become entirely engrossed in) Homestuck. I may be late to the party, but in my humble and biased opinion, the combination could not be better. I'm also going to echo nearly everyone else in voicing my appreciation of the varied body types and wonderful sense of personality conveyed through expression and, especially impressively, hand positions.

I really hope you don't mind me using this as my desktop background, because oh my goodness this is fantastic. It's so awesome to see the level of detail you gave these ladies (and gentleman), along with the amount of personality reflected in something as small as their fingers.

And as usual, your lineart aaaah so wonderful!

LILO AND STITCH
- was basically the first thing I thought.

This is my wallpaper, but I'm a bit relieved that nobody's likely to see my laptop anytime soon. Not on the quality of the art - ON THE SHARP CONTRARY, your lines are sweet and the detail in outfits and body shapes are great fun to examine. I just don't fancy parrying questions of "what the taintchafing hell is on your screen" right now.

Light-Rises [2011-06-20 20:32:09 +0000 UTC]

Ahahahaha, this is fabulous. Beautiful linework! And I agree, I love how you've depicted the different body types and variations in attire. Parchment textured background is much appreciated too. Oh, and nonplussed bellydancing Karkat. >:]

The detail in each of the costumes is amazing. I love how you balance the unity of the group with the individuality of the dancers! It's so eloquent!

Also.

It took me like 3 double-takes to realize Karkat was there. Just... What can I say? Other than laughing forever?

Also that, including Karkat, the lineart is fantastic!

smilefortyeight [2011-06-17 02:09:42 +0000 UTC]

I've stopped by more than once over the past two days to just fave this and say how awesome it looks, and every time I get caught up in staring at all the details of their different costumes. How do you even DO that.
Also the amount of personality you've put into their builds and even the smaller variations on what is basically the same pose has, I think, been mentioned.

I love how you made each character have it's own distinct body shape :] That's something that adds to the characterization, but is really difficult to accomplish. Congratulations!
