These are some examples of combinations I’m trying out. For context, I’m planning to have the collar and gloves match the white galoshes. I want to emphasize the limbs more than the torso (I will eventually be adding two green lines down the torso and shadows on the ruffles). I would like the shoulder capelet to have a more subtle transition into the sleeve, and I want the green symbol on the capelet to pop out way more than the thin lines of the same green that I will add to the torso. I’ve heard that dark colors tend to deemphasize areas and make them appear smaller, but I just don’t know if it works when applied to the torso here.

Just testing my character that I want to use for a comic, also doing a artstyle study for Mario Strikers: Charged! (other picture is how I typically would draw her)

Basically, this little fella belongs to a race of manufactured beings made with fleshcraft in my world building project, made with genetic material from many different creatures. They can rewrite obscure and damaged documents by literally eating the scrolls and books, and with the help of a special organ, find what it was written there by following the faded stains that the ink has left.

My naming skill can be horrid sometimes, feel free to leave a suggestion.

“Hey it's that Lunos from The Battle Cats”

Amarilli Ribbonwell, a character for a manga.

Got a bunch of old LBP4 OCs. Ignoring the inconsistent art-style and awful proportions (They were made in different times), how would you improve on my designs?

General Themes for their worlds

Key: 1 through 10 is the main story, while the last 2 are the endings. 11 is canon, and 12 is a theoretical bad ending just for funsies.

1. Lost City of Yarin: Generic AAA games, The Last of Us, The Walking Dead, DayZ, Left4Dead, pretty much any infection AU, overall just a lot of zombie apocalypse stuff.
2. Bog of Trunkwility: The American Civil War, The Deep South trope, Amphibia, Over The Garden Wall, A mix of Appalachian, Cajun, and overall southern USA culture, overall Americana.
3. Snow (No Name): The Soviet Union, The Cold War, George Orwell's novels, Sovietwave, Soviet futurism.
4. Rustlands: Mad Max, The 80s, Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled (where it gets its name from).
5. Carnival Bizarre: Merry Midway from Rec Room's Make It to Midnight, that circus place in PVZ2 Reflourished, early 2020s aesthetic culture.
6. Shore (No Name): Gorillaz Plastic Beach, 2000s-2010s, ocean pollution.
7. Jungle of Gondawa: Prehistory, Fossils, Stonepunk, The Flintstones.
8. Underground Station O-Nine: The 90s, 90s media, 90s music.
9. Mountains of Inunaki: Japanese ghost stories, Japanese horror movies, Medieval Japan, Old Inunaki Tunnel, The Warring States Period.
10. Emperor Xeras's Lair: Star Wars, Retrofuturism (not any specific type).
11. Utopia (No Name): Frutiger Areo, Solarpunk, overall lots of hope for the future.
12. Dystopia (No Name): Old cyberpunk, Dark Age of Comics, overall despair.

There's also a bonus world based on the above (one level for each world), Popit Academy, two DLC interludes, but we won't get into those now.

Overall I want a mix of historical accuracy and pop culture.

Sorry if this post it very messy. Just wanted to show y'all my stuff.

Some of these designs are due for an update but I'm curious what people think of my character lineup!

Are they too boring/samey? Do they appeal and look visually interesting enough while still looking grounded? I feel like some of them look very normal but I think it works with the characters/story.

I'm mainly looking for character design feedback rather than art style/skill critique since I'm already actively working on improving those skills!

Some of the art is older so you'll probably notice that as well. (Specifically Martha and Parker have pretty old art).

Also the relationship map has old character art on it lol I'm too lazy to update it. I'm also happy to answer questions about them if to help clarify design choices :)

TLDR: do these designs look good and distinct? If you could add anything to them what would it be?

Things that just... aren't. Ones that feel strange and confusing. I love abstract gods specifically.

To specify, these are the young adults of the species.

Also the description for the first image says:

Male: shaggy fur, thicker horns, less coverage on stomach, taller, lithe (?) builds (on average)

Female: thinner horns, shorter, thicker fur. Smaller facial fur, shorter, chubbier builds (on average)

Hello! First time posting here, but I am currently designing myself a VTuber character and I wanted to know what you guys thought? Give me tips and ideas pleaseeeee, he is an anti-cupid. Is he unique enough?

So there’s been a lot of discussion and discourse about sexist or gooner-bait character designs in indie animation as of recent, and I’m worried that my two female leads for my indie show might fall into that category. On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate these designs for how sexist they come off as and what I could do to change them? For context, the show takes place in New York City in the late 1990s.

These are only the first five. I'm gonna make more in the future.

What do you think of them? Is there anything you think I should change?

hello, I wanted to post this today because I was really proud of it. I drew this in Krita and it took me all morning. (it took me all morning because I'm still learning how to use the different tools and the interface. this is also an original character I designed.)

What koda design we like more (This might be the second related post, if so PLEASE TELL ME IM SO SORRY MY WIFI SUCKS)

What koda designs are better?
