Maria Concept Notes (Patreon)

For a little while now, ever since I first developed Cecily (seen here ---> ( link )) as a character, I wanted to do a bit more for that character; namely create someone to act as foil to Cecily herself.  Well, the above image is that foil character.

Meet Maria Guzman (or Mar-Mar as Cecily likes to call her sometimes).  She's meant to be something of a polar opposite to Cecily, in that while CiCi is pretty spunky and no-nonsense, Maria is more timid and submissive; while Cecily tends to be more loud and boisterous, Maria is more quiet and reserved.

Also, I figured it'd be fun to have another character that's supremely bottom-heavy, but vary it up a bit by making her very short (since she's only 3'9") and also having her be practically flat-chested.

Furthermore, as to how the two ladies became friends, I kinda like to think that they initially became friends as children.  Maybe like how shortly after moving from Brooklyn to Texas, Cecily stood up for Maria against a pair of bullies, and then soon became fast friends with her after that.

Oh and large spectacles on a girl is something that I find to be kinda cute as well.  X3

In any case though, I hope to do more with her and Cecily in the future; and I further hope that you guys enjoy her.  :)
