I love Collin a lot so I decided to make a ref for him because I want to use him more in the future. I might even make a little story for him.

Anyway here's the art

I'm not proud of this but then again I'm still a noob to Illustrator. I'm trying to focus more on Illustrator than Inkscape but it's proving to be a challenge

Birthday: April 14

Occupation: Fashion designer

Sexuality: Gay af

Personality: Ever since he was young, Collin has always been the shy type and was quiet mostly but when he's around friends, he's the most talkative tom you'll meet. Despite being very shy, he is really into romance and dreams of the day he'll meet the one of his dreams. He's kind and caring toward others and helps out whenever he can. He isn't one to get mad at people but when he is, he becomes stone-faced and cold but he normally gets over it pretty quickly. All in all, he's the greatest guy you'll meet and if you ever have a beauty problem, he's the perfect one for the job!

Background: Suddenly going from an only child to an older brother of ten was quite a challenge for Collin but he somehow managed to take care of all ten of them until he moved out and built his own store to sell his fashion designs. Being raised to be a proper gentleman by his parents, he has a tendency to use a posh tone when speaking to others and sometimes, he uses it around his friends out of habit. After a few experiences, he discovered that males where more his thing than females though he does have to deal with a lot of flirtatious females and their advances (which he rejects as politely as he can). Even though he's not interested in females, a majority of his friends are girls and they all joke about how he's the little sister they always wanted (which he's never offended by). All in all, he's the greatest guy you'll meet and if you ever have a beauty problem, he's the perfect one for the job!

Relationships:

-Even though they are a mischievous and obnoxious bunch, Collin loves all ten of his siblings equally, though he does have a slight soft spot for the kindest and quietest of the bunch, Charlie. Though it may not seem like it most if the time, all of them look up to their big brother and hope to be just like him, his little brother Chance even took up an interest in sewing because of him.

-Nowadays, Collin rarely ever sees his parents due to their busy schedules. The only time he sees them is on the off chance they drop off his little siblings at his house to babysit for a couple hours.

-His very best friends are his gal pals Orlena and Melora. Orlena is like another one of his sisters what with her being so naive and innocent and will do anything for her. Melora is quite protective of him at times and often tries to get him hooked up with a ton of attractive males but Collin was too shy for it to go on for long. They do a lot together and on the odd chance they decide to play dress up, Melora is normally the one all dolled up in the end (much to her annoyance). They both work in his store as his assistants.

-He has a big fat crush on Travis. Not only is he attractive to him but the charming personality adds to it. Every time he and Travis talk, he becomes a blushing, stuttering mess which embarrasses him immensely. Travis has feelings for Collin as well but he hasn't worked up the courage to ask him out.

-Collin treats Travis' kid Cookie as if she was his own daughter by being protective and kind towards her. In fact, Cookie was the reason he met Travis in the first place. Cookie greatly likes Collin and hopes that he will become her second daddy. She also enjoys snuggling into his soft fur and wearing the outfits he makes for her.

Interesting Facts:

-He discovered his love of fashion when his mother dragged him to a fashion show back when he was young. He thought it would be very boring but he was proven wrong by all those magnificent outfits!

-Due to some unknown birth defect, he is much smaller than an average male his age. Along with his personality, it causes him to be mistaken for a female quite a bit (not that he minds).

-The jacket he wears was the first one he made on the day he opened his shop. He rarely takes it off and if someone were to see him without it on, he gets extremely embarrassed.

-He is a sucker for romance. Always reading sappy romance novels and often fantasising about it.

-The first fashion line he completed was of baby clothes. The inspiration coming from his newly born siblings at the time.

-His friends describe him as a super gay cinnamon roll.

-He loves playing dress up with Orlena and Melora.

-People tend to joke that the reason his nickname is Collie is because he looks like a border collie.

-He is deathly afraid of needles.

I hope you all enjoyed these scribbles my dear friends!
