When I draw him as a teen I always give him his nanny chin

A complexion study! I thought it’d be interesting to contemplate what the Aquatos would look like with a few varieties of realistic Romani skin colors and how the two might mingle to retain that goofy red/yellow/green and yellow/blue/brown color harmony from the games.

I’m absolutely not the first person to do this, but I can’t find the post that inspired me. It was Frazie and Mirtala with brown skin in pretty blue leotards, I think. If anyone can find it, plz link me.

(I also felt the need to sit and tweak Raz’s face a bit so he looks less like a Danny Phantom clone than in previous drawings.)

[ID: Digital art of sketches of Razputin and the Aquato family with skin tones varying from Simpsons yellow to olive to warm red-brown. There’s a bunch of tests of Raz in the top left as a smiling teenager. In the top right, Dion has been reimagined with long hair pulled back in a thick ponytail and a goatee. He’s wearing a royal blue leotard with gold trim and a deep collar. He looks contemplative. Frazie is in the bottom right with her hair flayed out behind her in an 80s windswept look. She’s wearing a light blue leotard with stripes of purple-blue swirly fabric, yellow trim around the midsection, and a white striped undershirt underneath. She’s staring curiously at a green lens she found. Donatella smiles and winks behind her with yellow and white glitter on her cheeks and blue shadowed eyes. There’s a gag in the bottom left of Augustus (in a green and yellow ringmaster’s outfit) warmly telling Raz (in a grey long sleeve) that he’s starting to get his grandmother’s chin, and Raz uncomfortably imagines himself with a skinny blunted chin like Marona. The skin tones of the children are varying intersections of their father’s red-brown skin and their mother’s olive skin. End ID]
