So, I’m doing a collab with another artist ( more details a bit later ) — and I wanted to share what I came up with. Now I will say I feel a bit out of my league when it comes to the creative side of things. I meet and interact with a lot of amazing artist and the passion they have in storytelling and art is beyond me. Like to explain — as we are organizing, I noticed Im not As Lore driving and detailed with my planning. As we’re starting, 1. I’m not taking the lead, I’m taking everything in and honestly im not really putting too much input into the project since it was presented to me. So it wasn’t clicking that maybe I should probably draw them more in my style— instead I just jumped into the project. I assumed since we’re designing from a familiar IP, that we are drawing straight from the brand, since the goal is to get these little guys adopted. My mind went to a branding/marketing perspective. In other words, I was to on the nose because I figure people would enjoy seeing characters they could recognize ((but custom)) and are more likely to be interested.
So to see and hear what my collaborative artist had planned and what details/story they built for their version — I sorta felt I didn’t understand the assignment. Like I love what I did and we we did so far. But IDK if I want to redesign these character or make new ones because of the difference.

but for now heres my customized experiments;


What do you think about them? Would you want one or even draw up your own? Let me know, I’d love to get some feedback.
