Mix and Pixi redesigns (+bonus)

Hey, I've been tyring to improve upon my old XEN style designs, getting back to it and see if I manage to get more used to this anatomy style for the characters.

I want to get back to make the characters look a little more animalistic for XEN, and since I'm also considering writing a new story for Mix and Pixi, I took the chance to redesign them for a new story concept I hope to make after the new NOVA comic.

Mix design V5 or 6 I think?

I want her to wear short clothes for some reason, I feel she got to be very different than the other characters, still thinking about keepin her hoodie, but hmm I'll see.

got a mix between tech and thieve in this iteration I guess.

Pixi v4

Clasic Pixi with an overhaul, gave her a new hairstyle, similar to old one but with a different cut at the back of her head.

bigger ears to improve cuteness and she look, big eyes she always had.

removed her yellow jacket and gloves for this time.

this represent "younger" version of Pixi, thought about gave her black and white consortium uniform, but I guess having her classic colors is important for recognition of the character. but I'll see.

the yellow is the representation of the technicians of the Consortium, and xenos also wear this color.

As bonus, I took the chances to play around with Nova, Susu and Ruffo and see how I could adapt them.

in general, this style is a new iteration on the japanese kemono styles and some feral characters I've seen, also checked a bit zootopia references.

the idea I got is to get to improve my own style with this anatomy, I kinda like how it look, maybe if I stick with this style for a while I'll learn to execute a little better. some more work ahead and practice still needed to get used to it.

This is a good example, on what I want to improve, a proper way to make the characters stand with her legs more "closed" as I love drawing my females that way, some tests I made in the sketches, so let's see
