why are the homestuck kids so recognizable in all fan art. there’s a million ways to draw each one but you fucking know jade harley when you see her

they can be broken down to their simplest features
Jade: Large round glasses and buck teeth with long dark hair. associated with green
Rose: Goth with light hair and headband. associated with purple
Dave: Short light hair, shades and red association.
John: short dark hair. buck teeth. rectangular glasses and associated with blue.
These are the simplest elements in terms of their character design. As long as they have these features (though colour association is optional) they can be identified. Though it makes it all the more funny when a character has them and ISNT them like that blue guy from that ice skating anime that looks a lot like john.
