mmMM kinda tempted to color this, but I always like my sketches better
father-son portrait tho
“I thought Yondu was your father.”
“What?”
“We’ve been together this whole time, and you thought Yondu was my actual blood relative?!”
“You look exactly alike!”
I am very much here for the idea that Drax can tell because SO MANY of Peter’s mannerisms come directly from Yondu
shit-eating grin included
So am I! And I mean, if you tweak color, age, and hairiness, they actually do look very alike. Like, Pratt is about 35, if I remember right, during GOTG1–and Quill is abducted age eight in 1988, so he’s probably within a year or two of that age.
Here’s Michael J. Rooker age 31:

Here’s a clean-shaven Chris Pratt having hair glued to his chin in a Yondu-esque fashion, age 35:
Here’s Rooker again, age 39:
and Pratt again, age 38.
It’s not even just the mannerisms–they genuinely do resemble each other in facial structure and bone structure! And then you get places where they totally do steal mannerisms, like little sarcastic gestures and the way they deal with idiots and just–
they are surprisingly similar, no wonder Drax got confused!
Ok but consider this: Quill has to go undercover or whatever, and for some reason decides to disguise himself as a Centaurian. He looks into the mirror after he’s been painted blue, and has a bit of a breakdown because suddenly he does look like Yondu.
Bonus: Stakar sees him in his Centaurian disguise, and the look coupled with the attitude and mannerisms Quill’s picked up from Yondu makes Stakar have a bit of a breakdown, too.
OH NO
now I kinda wanna draw that…
GOOD POST especially keigan’s contributions because you made me lip-wibble at 6:24 in the morning
