I thought I’d have a little bit of fun trying figure out the character dynamic between Cocotte and Zangya with this one. One of the things these two have in common that made me want to pair them together in the first place is that they both have minimal characterization in their limited appearances. This means the “Studio” versions have a lot of their personality inferred or just made up, making them a bit closer to being OC’s than, say, Goku or the like. I liked the idea here that Cocotte answers with something pretty superficial and meaningless.
The original idea for the art here was going to be a bit simpler, basically just this pose but zoomed in more so you just see Zangya’s legs (not unlike the Gohan/Ashido Mini Commission from a ways back). I’ve been wanting to do the next pic in the series based on these two for a while, though, and I think that pent-up desire came out a bit and I ended up doing more-or-less a full pic of both characters. This made the Ask take up more of my daily schedule than I’d originally wanted, but I think the end result is better off for it. Hopefully sometime soon I’ll be able to do the actual next pic in their series.
