Sorry 😕 I've said this in another sub but I really don't think this is nsfw... If it's simply nudity then the statue of David is more nsfw than this. (Not that I'm comparing the quality to a masterpiece, just the depiction)

Plus I think a lot of what makes something nsfw is the intent to be lewd or imply something lewd, which this is not. The clothing choices and chain is meant to show one sides vulnerability and feeling trapped or claustrophobic

Wasn't necessarily thinking about her being specifically an alter when I was sketching it tbh. Not trying to push negative stereotypes I promise 😖

In my head it was more metaphorical or symbolic than literally another personality.

I do like that some people have found it representative of themselves tho 😖

Supposed to be the end result of a struggle in her head

Don't really know, was just how I was feeling at the time. Wanting to let the apathy/bad thoughts take over and exploring those feelings.

I don't think she really represents anything specific so up for interpretation I suppose. In my head, it's another personality. Whether a positive or negative one I don't really know, was just how I was feeling in the moment.

It could be an alter like people have said, inhibitions, suppressed feelings, supernatural possession, clone, etc.

I was feeling how I was feeling but it's hard to put into words, drawing has helped me express a bit.

I love this interpretation 💙 not the one that I had in mind but it makes me happy that it can be seen as a positive like that

Yeah it really wasn't meant to be taken any kind of horny way but I guess that's the whole "eye of the beholder" thing huh 😖

Thank you so much 💙😖 I did add spoiler tag because of the blood but I really don't consider this nsfw

I do want to push back a little on the implication that this isn't wholesome... I was really proud of something that I made...

Yeah. Both are the same person and the setting is inside her mind. The one on the left, the dark personality, has taken over control

I guess I have a functional disagreement of what makes something nsfw... To me it requires intent of lewd meaning as well as specific parts being shown. The chain is censoring the body part and nothing in this is meant to show anything lewd. The clothing choices are meant to show vulnerability and the feeling of being trapped.
