Sprite Preview: Brandon additions #2 (Patreon)
Content
[Possible spoiler warning! This post may contain spoilers related to route content unreleased yet. Don't scroll down any further if you wish be surprised when the content is released!]
So this has been a looooong time coming since late 2020 in development, many of you will already know what this preview is before I mention anything else. For some of you this will be completely new and this post will very lightly spoil some context for this outfit preview to give an idea to what you're looking at, but I'd like to not go too much into detail. :P
This last addition for Brandon's sprite needs no introduction... I present to you "Brandy"!
For those who are confused, here's the light context... During one of the routes that won't be named, there's events that lead to the protag finding themselves crossdressing. I think that at least gives a general context for what is being viewed. ^^" I'd like to mention more, but I think it's important for me to leave some surprises.
One thing to make note of is that I am a bit worried because I do have plans to play some of these scenes off in comedic tones, while also mixing in some humiliation and down right naughty moments, but I'm hopeful that I'll be able to write these scenes in a way that is respectful to anyone who'd like to self insert during these moments. (End result, while there can be comedy, it shouldn't feel insulting to anyone is my personal goal.)
Q: Will Brandy be pegged?
A: Sorry spoilers >.< But this has been brought up and seems fitting to not get anyone's hopes up. The answer is no, but there will be other content that feels sub-like without getting super extreme.
Q: If I don't really self insert or care about crossdressing, etc. Will I still enjoy this route content it's targeted for?
A: Ideally the goal is that anyone should be able to enjoy the content without feeling pushed away by it. Not to fully spoil the fun, but the given route this shows up in won't be the only focus and scenes for the whole route I promise you that. :P
With those out of the way, I hope that kind of gives some insight and helps answer some stuff.
Here we can see how Brandon, the protag looks. (Pictured left) Compared to his Brandy crossdressing setup. (Pictured right)
I was really worried how well the whole crossdressing would turn out, given Brandon's frame could come off looking awkward for some. But I think Lisa did a wonderful job with helping Brandon pass, which should really help those scenes that much better. ^^
I pretty much let Lisa go wild with the overall design for this. I tossed down a few mentions like roughly how the wig design should look and that I wanted Brandy to have a lolita styled dress, something that fit him that wasn't super pastel and bright colored. But overall it'd still make him feel a bit nervous and awkward while dressed up.
So a few things to point out! His eyebrows are trimmed down just a tad bit to help, along with some makeup and other techniques to help give his face a bit of a softer look. (The cat headband was something Lisa was determined on giving him and I just had to say yes to it! :P )
The change to the arm pose for this given outfit was much needed to help give him a bit more of a nervous, awkward tone while carrying himself. But oddly enough.. It almost gives him this feeling of looking pretty confident! (Maybe it's the expression?) Overall, I think Lisa really outdid herself on the design and I knew how much she's been looking forward to working on this for many months now. ^^
I know this has been a long time coming for many fans to see the visuals of "Brandy". So we'd love to hear your thoughts, just be mindful not to spoil who's route this content is meant for if possible to be respectful. Otherwise I'm super excited and I'm sure Lisa is just as much to hear everyone's thoughts!
