As for Quincy, yeah his frame design is complicated, really hard to tell where he begins and ends, because he ?had? ?both his arms removed at some point? or it's the Infested enchanting him for a better grip?? It's really hard to tell.

Based on concept art he's an amputee just below the elbows and the infestation seeps inside the prosthetics.
And yeah, 100% agree, base Cyte is both beautiful and a hot fucking mess of shapes and gribbles, and Quincy stacks that with his fancy metal arms, harness and coat flaps, and *ough*.
Step 1. Trace over screenshots of both Cyte-09 and Gemini skin to isolate the base shapes and sections
Step 2. Start the sketch, have a mental breakdown.
Step 3. Repeat step 2 as many times as needed.
Step 4. I hope you like drawing braids.
Coming back to this because I have the perfect meme for when you're drawing Quincy (and dating him, and writing about him, and explaining him to people who missed out on 75% of his KIM because what was DE thinking with the chemistry tier convo lockout system, and...)
The beauty mark is there so you know where to smooch him. The braid knot is there to cushion the inevitable bonking on the head he'll be getting from you.
"Would they be jealous if they heard what we did last night" is supposed to be an innuendo but I'm over here like "We played Twister and I got a charlie horse whatdoyoumeaaaan"
And if I'm the "songbird" excuse me for liking karaoke good lawd xD
Step 7: somehow reach lineart stage, then realize the nefarious beans-on-toast consumer bamboozled you with his design's optical illusions and you drew him too bulky in the chest and shoulders
Step 8: firebomb both London, Ontario and London, England
HE *ISN'T* THAT BIG ACTUALLY, IT'S ALL JUST CLOTH LAYERS AND WARFRAME FLESH GROWTHS AND HIS FOREARM PROSTETICS BEING EXTRA BULKY NEAR THE ELBOWS AND I AM LOSING MY MIND--
Oh and because I already committed to halfsies I got one arm that was all gloved up and one mechanical one whichmakesmewonderQuincyHowDidYouShootThatPreInfestationwtfdudeeee XD
Right?! The Twins and Aoi get to wear bodysuits practically so it's simple enough to see what got added-subtracted, but Quincy is built like a pack mule. Which, fair, but now your fanny pack is part of your belly button-
The undoing of being a hoarder is that now you must forever hoard, Quincy.
Amir and Lettie too, especially Lettie's metal? shorts? thighs?? Agreed read is that it's her ??skin?? but why would it spread like that and stop clean above her knees. AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THE AESTHETIC INDENT LINES ON HER AND AOI. GIRLIES CYBERPUNK IS OVER THERE, THIS WF.
It's such a mess.. for all of us. But like you said, Aoi and the twins have it easy. Quincy said "well someone has to be a diva in this mall" and ran with it.
I'm the group pack mule on friend trips and wear like three bags and a backpack.
QUINCY THO took that even further and was like "Know what? I'm gonna be the WHOLE supply store" before poking himself with entrati juice. Aoi might be group mom but Quincy is definitely the new group dad 🤣

He's a pretty son of a gun, but at what cost? 🥲
