Just drawing it and spending time to get a good pose and proportions? Or one hour rendering it with details and textures and whatnot? Because even if quite slow, one is more on the "normal" side than the other... xD

Something I like about these characters is that I can feel how they would play in a video game. Quilver would be a fast speedy hit and run metroidvania like a shantae game but more acrobatic. Clangar would charge through enemies like a tank and be a real bruiser like a beatem up game. The Snakeguy would have a more puzzler type of game where you would have to solve Zelda like puzzles. And Biko would be a bouncy platformer but slower and more methodical with lots of different power ups

Great tips! Gotta be honest Acius (I don’t know how to spell his name) is probably my favorite of the group. I love his bright aqua color scheme, also I always enjoy scientist-like characters. Glad to see him again! Of course they’re all enjoyable, and I loved watching you design them! :>

I realize you've addressed the subject of working conditions before in the vein of physical needs in at least one of your previous videos. However I'm interested in your take on what makes a good and not distracting work space, and maybe hearing about set ups you've had in the past. One reason I ask about this is a lot of us like working in cafes or libraries and have had to scramble to make a work space at home, including myself. Thank you for all the care you put into your videos. They are a wonderful resource!

A design is functionality. An illustration is the applied outcome of that functionality. A talented artist can still make a bad design into a good illustration much in the way college students can get good grades when creatively rushing an essay. But a good design is an excellent foundation upon which to create a deliberately great illustration, much like how doing the actual research in a timely fashion can lead to great college essay.

How long does it usually take you to iterate through a character concept? I spent almost eight hours figuring out how to make a character look like a cyborg in the way I wanted, and I didn't even design a character. Feels bad. >~
