Prompt VII Response

Does anyone else see a pattern to this weeks submissions? Everyone's character is nude. I wonder if this means anything. *thinking pose*
Anyways, I already did a pic featuring my phobias, so now for something completely different!

Featuring my OC, Rev. His greatest phobia is bodies of water (lakes, rivers, oceans, etc.), and by association, drowning. It does not help that he's immortal, so if he is weighed down and dropped in the ocean, he basically dies over and over again. Not fun.

  1. we probably added it in just a little unconsciously- as it could portray some kind of vulnerability we fear in some way etc

  2. I always use nudity to portray vulnerability, or in some rare cases, serenity (or a need not to hide), but it depends on the circumstances the character finds itself in.

    Subconsciously, I think that's a theme most people can agree on-- bereft of clothes or anything to hide oneself in only adds to the discomfort of a phobia, and makes the character/subject seem all the more helpless and alone in their personal hell.
