My colleagues have pointed out to me a number of times that I need to illustrate more female-kin for the sake of non-discrimination. For the record, the original Cinekin design was meant to be somewhat androgynous. All this really means for me is that drawing dude-kins provide me with fewer hairstyle options than girl-kins…
