Emil's Evolution

Look at my boy - all grown up. I'm a proud mama

Ten years later Emil s still rocking that hair style. But T-Boz never called and said she wanted it back so Emil's anthro days are long gone. Since then he's packed on some muscle so he doesn't look like a little twink. His face shape back then...God I could kick my own ass - jaw bone, what's that? Even when I resurrected him in 2010 he was still a little off but thankfully I nailed it in 2012.

Back in the original Kiddo Emil's heterochromia wasn't genetic - it was  cause by a botched surgery. You see, the big bad guy of Kiddo was losing a fight to Emil and to gain the upper hand he stabs Emil in the eye. When the doctors fixed it they made his implant the wrong color - notice how in the 2006 model he still has two hazel eyes. I got he whole two different eye color thing from the man that Emil is based off of - a high school friend of mine. The story behind that is that this guy wore contacts to see but when he put them in they'd make his brown eyes appear green. It was only later that I realized they were tinted blue so he could find them if he dropped them.

I also noticed that the 2006 model has straight up brown hair. I'm thinking this was some sort of mistake. Emil's hair is actually a dark raspberry color...which is a fancy way of saying it's pink! Yes if you sample Emil's hair and look at it in the color selector it's actually dark PINK!!! Technically he's a little bit of a redhead.

As for his personality evolution I'd say he's happier. Of course back in the original Kiddo he was being controlled by the collar he used to wear keeping him that monotone, broody mystery boy that every anime fan loves. I decided to actually make his a person instead of a one dimensional Heero Yuy joke. Instead of tiger stripes he has tattoos - but he still likes to be barefoot
