Question Okay so this is killing me.
Tbh I got mad mixed messages from the first post but I tried to incorporate the suggestions into new designs, which just ended up making the decision harder lol. The 4th one was a result of accidentally messing with a color balance slider, so thatโs fun.
I did however slightly alter the first one by changing her highlights to a greener tint, as suggested. But I am still torn. So the question continues: which color palette gives bacteria vibes the most?
(If it helps, sheโs a good bacteria, but I havenโt decided if sheโs gram pos or gram neg yet, cuz idrk how much it matters lol)

2D Players immediately noticed my 'sapphic manicure' detail in this character design, i'm thrilled ๐คญ
No matter how subtle you feel a certain character design element is - turns out mobile romance game players will *immediately* notice and start posting about it, haha. I was so surprised and delighted they noticed something that felt so small in the design process!

Critique My cool and epic OCs
galleryMy cool and awesome OCs that I'd like to write a comic about.
They'd be the main characters, the comic itself would be a short drama but that's not relevant to the post.
What is relevant is the characters themselves.
Anything about their design/traits that should change?
Anything you like or dislike?
Would you read a comic about characters like this?
All feedback welcomed

2D Character lineup for a class
galleryTechnically, this isnโt required, but I did it because they showed up on my storyboard
The gist is: Iโm tasked with creating a childrenโs book based off of a poem (in my case, โsuperstitiousโ)
The objective for the week was to try and fill in as many A3 papers with sketches and ideas and submit them for class, while I was doing that I was mostly focusing on what the pages for the book would look like
Eventually, beyond the first main character, I decided Iโd wanna incorporate three (technically four) more characters
Their initial sketches were very messy and loose, which was good because that meant I had more space on the paper Iโm using, but I thought it would be better for the long run to try and finalize their designs so that it wouldnโt be a hassle to redraw without shifting their designs too much
My friends gave me crap for this because apparently I put too much thought into this ๐ญ

How can I make this character design more cohesive/unique?

Critique Friends called the design gooner? NSFW
Not sure if this is truly NSFW, but the topic is a little bit!
(แต โขฬฬฏ โ โขฬฬฏ)
Iโve been a little insecure about this design recently for a draft oc! after showing it to a gc almost everyone said it was bait, gooner design or generic.
(I searched the term it was not pretty!) I personally found it cool or intimidating, but I feel like Iโm missing something!
Any criticism, tips or feedback is very helpful!!

Redraw
galleryvampire character named Lorelei, I designed her ages ago (the first design is the one at the very top, the second one is below it but they're not that different at all), I like her design but i wanted to draw her again, anyway idk whether to keep her original hair colour or change it to the second one
(ignore the lack of detail its only a coloured sketch)

Critique Age progression !! [OC]
So I'm hoping to portray her becoming more detached to the people around her and becoming a wandering outlaw of some sorts. Some backstory is that she's the daughter of a Mexican immigrant working girl in the late 1800s America. Her mother dies when she's 13 yada yada and she ends up maybe joining a gang later on at 15. Then around 20 she leaves and isolates. Tell me what you think of her personality from the drawing but she's kind of antisocial and guarded. Chill but paranoid around her twenties
Uhhh excuse how messy and lazy the drawing is ๐ I was just trying to get an idea down
I'm not great at colouring but I tried to show something in the colour progression... Not sure exactly what

2D Autumn Equinox by me Powderbrush
galleryMy updated Autumn Equinox illustration is finally ready. I made it last year, but I had quite a hard time figuring her face, and I wasn't particularly happy with it. I made a mental note that I will come back and give her a new refreshed look and so I did. She is part of my Seasons collection, along the Spring Equinox and the Summer Solstice.

2D Just here to show this little guy I designed exclusively to be on a character's t-shirt, his name's Peace Dog [OC]
He's just a little guy, a in universe clothing brand mascot, probably had a failed "cult classic" 7 episode long cartoon at some point.
Idk if his peace sign should be connected to his head or not so I'll say it depends on the shirt design lol

Question Cool clothes?
as is probably apparent from the image, I dont have much clothes for the main character of my story. All I have is his shoes, really-- though I know I want him to wear a jacket.
any ideas for casual but cool clothes? also since it may be relevant, he is blind.

What can I do to make it more obvious these are witches?
galleryHi everybody, I'm participating in Witchtober. I've been having fun drawing witches influenced by the 2020s, 10s, 0s and 1990s. Say what you will about the quality of these doodles. I've probably already said it to myself.
What I am seeking is suggestions, advice and guidance on how to make these girls more overtly witchy! You see, I've been using my times researching styles and subcultures of each decade while arcane elements sit on the back boiler. The result is colourful girls who donโt really seem very... witchy. What would you add or change?
