good clothes talk for you better than you can [Art]

My Christmas gift for Buckie who asked for something from my personal favorite point in history >:3c So I could go wild just drawing something I really like to draw and look at, which is homoerotic early 20th century advertising bc I wish I was JC Leyendecker. 1920s men's underwear you are always on my mind!!!!!!

This is a redraw/modification of a real Hart Schaffner and Marx men's fashion plate from 1921, the original of which you can see here, and the text I took from yet another 1920s men's clothing ad from my collection lol. I have been learning by doing these vintage illustration redraws lately and I really like how this came out, I hope u enjoy it hehe

This is absolutely stellar. Texture, the composition, this is like print it as a poster and put it up on my wall, I love it. I love their expressions and the details of their socks and slippers!

I love the warmth (color and feeling) in this so much. And I love my book boys and Aziraphale's little sexy modest robe 😂

ZOMG the garters!!!! The slippers!!! The tassels on the robe!!! And, good lord, the smirk on Crowley's face. *fans self with laptop* I absolutely love the color palette and patterns in this. It must have taken you ages! Love all the little details in the folds of the fabrics and the contrast with the hard, rounded edges of the bed posts. Such a wonderful piece! Thanks for sharing it with us!!!

Beautiful! The sock garters and the belt and tassels on the robe are amazing, and the tension between them is palpable.
