8 FACTS ABOUT LISBETH HANEZAWA

Felt like drawing an updated "base" reference pic for Lisbeth, incorporating a few stylistic changes I've made recently as well as a couple small changes that I'd make with the power of hindsight lol. There's a generic profile shot with her in her uniform, a pinup of Lis in her undies enjoying her favorite food, and a butt shot I drew just to fill up the page

To sweeten the deal a little so that this isn't just another random profile redesign of mine, here's 8 facts about Lisbeth that I haven't revealed in the comic itself (was gonna be 10, but I didn't wanna start stretching for random facts lol) :

1.Her birthday is March 16th. (Birth year would be 2001 if we go with the idea of IN-FAT-UATION taking place in 2019, but besides the occasional reference to the present that slips in every now and again, I'd like the story to be in a general "modern" setting that you can't really pin to a year)

2. Out of the cast, Lisbeth is the youngest.

3. Like myself, Lisbeth is autistic. She's relatively high functioning, able to take care of herself and operate independently 90% of the time, but as we saw in chapter 1, she does have occasional problems with self care, and as a component of the autism, she does suffer from severe anxiety and sensory overload... These are all things I deal with occasionally, and it does feel good to write a character who goes through the same things I do.

4. Again, like me, she has a big action figure collection. (Another thing briefly mentioned and hinted at in Chapter 1)

5. Like Kimi's parents, Lisbeth's aren't around most of the time. They all work for a big textile company in Tokyo. (I-F-U takes place in my own fictional town of Kabocha.)

6. Lisbeth spends most of her free time playing the MMO Familiar. It's a game where you play as humanized Familiars (the animal assistants to witches and wizards) and go on quests to help your magic masters. Lisbeth plays a bat-themed familiar named Matilda. I may draw her up eventually and do the profile up all meta-like, as if Lisbeth herself was writing it

7. Lisbeth's favorite food is Burgers and fries. Little did Leo know that he raised his chances with her by 100% by bringing her to a fast food place after she had passed out

8. Lisbeth's favorite color is Orange. I say this because the other main female characters have it plastered on their bodies via their specialized student council uniforms (red for Kimi, purple for Hana, maroon for Yui), Lis doesn't really have anything to indicate that other than the orange shirt she wore in the first few pages of chapter 1.

Gonna do one for Kimi later for sure, buuuut I need to get a bit more work on the comic itself done first lol
