Hey buddies, I had a lot of fun drawing this character, I really do hope you like it ! It took me a shorter amount of time than it usually would to draw a scene and I find that so be very interesting because I usually don’t had shading to my work. Anywhos, here’s a short backstory to go with the character (btw, I decided to make them non-binary !) :} As a child Tropic lived in a very gloomy town. The town was bland and colorless, the residents were toxic and colorless, everything was just awful. The residents believed that any color added to the town was a curse and that curse would lead to the town’s downfall. Tropic was no exception to this. Has a newborn she fit in nicely but as she got older it just seemed to be as if she kept getting more colorful. After releasing this she was forced to drop out of school as so no one would notice and was forbidden from leaving the home. But her parents didn’t do this for her, they did this for themselves. They intended on having another child to replace Tropic when she turned 16. Why? Because once she turned 16 they were going to send her to the warden to have her beheaded. Tropics parents knew they wouldn’t refuse because she was colorful, she was a curse. But Tropic was no bonehead. She knew that they would, at some point, do something like this, and she didn’t intend to stay and let that be her fate; so the night of her 16th birthday she threw on and old, raggedy, grey coat from her mother’s closets and ran away. She had nothing so she saw no reason to stop. She kept running and running until she couldn’t run anymore. With nothing to hydrate her she had no energy to go any further and passed out. When she woke, she heard seagulls and ocean waves? She didn’t remember running here. Although she wanted answers there were non for her to get. She was dehydrated and starving but she did love how colorful it was. She walked across the beach and found hopping to find someone that would help her, lucky there were some residents on the beach that were willing to take her to the local care center. 2 years later and she’s living a happy life on the beach! She loves keeping the beach clean and being able to relate to all the other colorful people that lived around her. Till this day she still doesn’t know how she ended up on the beach, but she doesn’t intend on going back to that gloomy town her parents live in anyways, she thinks it may have been the spirt of her grandmother who was also as colorful as her, leading her to the happy ending that she deserved. - THE END Hope you liked the story ! Art by me Character from Story also by me :}
