That's totally funny and endearing. The dialogue and their expressions are spot on.

Really on-model (Lisa's head is a bit big, but that's the only problem I can see), with lovely colour scheme. Like Fernie, I love the dialogue. "You know, our noses weren't always like this..." is just cute (and a bit alarming).

Ah don't take the last bit too seriously. Some characters do seem to have a multiple-choice past. One day it could be "we were rollerblading and both smacked into a lamppost", the next it could be "we pulled a face and it got stuck that way"...
Then again it's been a consistent trait since Homer's Triple Bypass that Krusty's red nose and freakish face colour are actually natural so who knows...

... it would be kind of funny to see some sort of multi-character-origin flashback ep at the school where their noses are totally normal or at least *less* upturned. It'd probably also have to have things like Milhouse being totally confident and cool and other things that get rectified at the end. :P

Just a scribble test. Only really showing because of how neat the hair points are compared to usual! Eyes are hating me so not pushing myself and that's why the feet are a little small.

Still, everything just feels so much more focused now... again, see relative neatness of hair.

Congratulations, hope the meds are treating you well!

meds: Very on-model, looks like it could be straight from the show, and his pose is pretty cute.

sword: apart from the smallness of his feet and right (our left) leg, this is a really good and dynamic pose, which isn't the easiest thing in the world. Suitable expression.

Eyes aren't doing super well, certainly not to fully draw things. But I can do research and put med-brain to use! Lots of analysis done, feel free to ask if anyone wants to ask for anyone else!

Behold the power of ADHD meds I guess! Still glad you caught what I was going for with the top one.
If my eyes worked better, I'd have probably done a whole mock-twopager for her... maybe that plus a twopager with expressions... the joke being nearly every expression being like "Impish (She's up to something!)" "smug (She's up to something!)" "forlorn (She's up to something!)"

Oh, anyone you want me to take a crack at? I could do with some direction...

Only skimmed this so far, but great analysis, and all your sketches look totally official. Like Stretch, I'm very impressed.

Will tell you if I have any suggestions.

To be fair, it was mostly adjusted from a screencap and traced over, trying to remove my own personal touches from this one, objective reference and all. I do like those brushes though...

welp been again to the eye hospital, got to learn what I'd always known, it's unfixable. The muscles in my eyelid are fucked and there's nothing I can do about them.

... so, that's at least half my plans thatwill now be completely impossible. Yay I'm good for nothing at all...

Damn. I'm so sorry.

Please don't think you've lost everything, though. You are clearly still able to draw, even if you may need a lot of rest. And you're able to write.

Right now, just see if you can get some relief for the irritation. There must be something they can do.
