Artist's commentary
I drew Venezia but in Azur Lane Style
Last time 2 people asked Venezia, 1 for Siegfried, unfortunately, I don't have Siegfried, so Venezia it is.
For me, Venezia got amazing alpha damage and surprisingly good handling at her size (she feels as big as same-tier BBs). Adding on the SAP, the smoke, and the torp, she reeks a smirking/troll vibe to me, so that's largely what I went for.
As for the design, well... Sardegna cruisers in Azur Lane, for some reason, all have GIGANTIC frontal armor, it doesn't feel like Sardegna if Venezia has anything smaller. So, although I personally like flat girls, Venezia got a similar size as her acquaintances.
I also feel obligated to add Italian memes (sry Italian folks), thus the hand, pasta, ravioli, pizza, and Ratatouille :D
P.S. The text says: "Do you want to eat some SAP?"
P.P.S. CV is the genius idea from Maddosan808 during twitch streaming.
P.P.P.S. I've thought about tagging it NSFW, but this is the same level of exposure as AL official stuff, if they can safely make posts, I probably will also be fine...
btw as always, leave comments if there are other ships you want to see
