the dog girl hangs out with the other two bc she couldn't stop chasing their sticks and it got too weird to not just include her on purpose.

[@Skylar_minecraft]

that is an amazing backstory

[@daxdleader719]

The first character's pose combined with her face makes me think she's explaining fighting stances to her party. Super cute!

[@KoryGrayson]

The dog being the only one without a stick is funny!

[@Luminous_Edits4u]

girl makes drawing feet look easy 😭

[@Hatterish18]

I love them all! I think something that might help the strawberry monk feel more strawberry would be to give her lots of freckles? kinda like strawberry seeds? but she looks great regardless!

[@Yur1Bee]

I’m obsessed with the strawberries and results of character 1! Can’t wait to see the other characters (I haven’t finished yet)

[@vidaliawhyte4620]

Ok strawberry girl should be named Frasier. Because 1) It means strawberry in French, 2) I find it cute when such feminine characters have more “masculine” sounding names, and 3) she looks like she’d have a two syllable long name. It’s a vibe I cannot explain it

[@eidole3438]

fyi strawberry in French is 'fraise'. 'Fraisier' is the plant where the strawberries grow on (not sure how it's called in english)

[@ChangerOfNames]

​@eidole3438 i got this, i believe the english version is called a "Strawberry plant" We dont really do special names for the plant over the product

[@nyo_zeeka]

@@eidole3438 Fraisier could also mean the strawberry cake with genoise and pastry cream

[@iampierce7474]

If i see the name Frasier I alwyas just hear the ending song from the actual show Frasier

[@tintillor]

Does she like tossed salad and scrambled eggs?

[@Rakiemgilbert-xx2un]

Name since there are nature themed I think the group name should be naturary (I know it sounds dumb you don't have to call them that tho)

[@samijen]

there’s a good name!!

[@Skylar_minecraft]

i like it

[@vampyrboyfriend5133]

Elf boy, my beloved.

[@AnonamyWrites288]

I love how they came out they're all so beautiful!!! 😍🫣💖💖💖 Strawberry Monk: Daliah Hollyberry🍓 Elf Mage: Desmond Fieldstone🌻 Moon dog: Leanne Starling🌙

[@MeadowLark-rf5bt]

Perfect names!

[@AnonamyWrites288]

@@MeadowLark-rf5bt oh my gosh! Thank you so much!! 😭🥹💖💖💖

[@vistima6681]

I think dog girl's 'simplicity' makes her stand out when paired with the other two

[@Frozenkoldfury]

Twist - these 3 are all in the same party, and their wildly different aesthetics are just cultural for them.

[@kiwiseed7563]

using prompts to design a characters is always fun

[@Viillustrations]

16:37 knowing myself I would choose the elf guy simply because I feel like I could vibe with him the most but I absolutely love all their designs

[@KoryGrayson]

I clicked on your video because of how well you did the strawberry character design and I immediately knew “Ooo strawberry!” And I thought “I could learn a lot from this person.”

[@letinalong5675]

Also maybe the third character could be named Moisha? In my language it means Dog of The Moon! Striss means Strawberry Devil and Witcha means Agnisha (Ducker) because he looks like that :)

[@austa3460]

I would go on a date with the fluffy Thai Wolf Girl cos she's so so cute and the moon aesthetic hits so good!

[@lurawe]

HOW have I only just discovered this channel?? Your art style is very cool and your editing is really nice as well c:

[@samijen]

thankyou so much!🥹

[@emmamahaffey2810]

Me too!!! I love this!

[@Skylar_minecraft]

first vid i've seen, i love it!

[@Mushroomarts165]

I LOVVEEEE the strawberry monk SHES SO PRETTY AND I LOVE SRAWBERRIES SO MUCHHHH AAAA❤❤❤

[@AMagicalTortoise]

I dream of being able to come up with outfit designs this easily. Takes me like days just to come up with a design that isn't just a suit.

[@letinalong5675]

I imagine the first character WAYY stronger than the second but they are like besties for now >:) so the first character let’s the second charter witch I’m naming Witcha beat her in combat, Witcha gets a little to Cocky and slices Striss the strawberry persons arm ALMOST IN HALF. That’s when Striss snaps they yell and Witcha and BOOM friendship over Witcha is Emo and Striss has recovered fine and is happy as ever :3

[@Skylar_minecraft]

ok...

[@elinehegrand5487]

The first one. oh my god. im in love

[@paulvecchio4088]

I love the way you set this up for YOU, inspired me for sure. You’re style is awesome aswell

[@spoonie4yoursoup]

The way you explain your process and little tips and tricks were really help, thank you!

[@JoyceW-Art]

This was a lot of fun to watch! The moodboards for the aesthetics is such a good idea

[@halmoser]

This IS SO CUUUUUTE AW THEYRE ALL ADORABLE

[@autizzy]

i love this! just found ur channel looking at art and d&d content, please keep doing more!! ❤

[@elly_lavelly]

All of them look so good

[@KoryGrayson]

CUTE!! You did amazing!

[@jacobpugh592]

All terrific poses but I think the strawberry monk is my favorite.

[@shadowscribe]

5:20 like a little kid who can't pick until the option is being forced 😊

[@hat.2106]

My god... What a beautiful style

[@mxhemlock]

I have never thought to put a little gold ear caps as jewelry for elves but it looks so good.

[@kanjigodomo9696]

I'm doing this with the classes and races you'll commonly see in D&D (the races in the PHB so I can give myself less torture remembering so many races), the classes (including artificer), and I rolled were three ladies (I used a D6 for it so I had the option of an androgynous character if I want, but I suck at androgyny). I have a dwarven fighter, a half orc bard, and a dragonborn paladin.

[@Ocearen]

As an FFXIV player, loved the references and you explaining away what they were. #2 reminded me of a mix between Estinien and Hancock. So I'll toss up Hanien Verald as a name.

[@BananaJuice-ue6pi]

I really like these :D And the poses too wowsers

[@derpyjane2524]

They’re sooo cute! 😍

[@Mai-tai-]

I immediately want to try this now!! Love your art!!!

[@samijen]

thankyou! would love to see everyone elses take on this challenge ☺️

[@Rubymagicalgirl88]

These are great. So I just found your stuff thanks to this video. Very fun style.

[@clue_47]

This is an amazing challenge!

[@XanderMander006]

I love the Tiefling! She's adorable. I like your drawing style, and like learning about different cultures.

[@redglassesart]

Ooh such a fun idea! 💜

[@AmbrosiaMooshine]

Yo they look amazing I love there designs :)

[@layczira]

They all turned out amazing 😊 Love me a good character design challenge ✨ For names: 1. Character: Fraya( since Fragaria is the scientific name for strawberry) 2. Character: Tris or Tristan 3. Character: Ramona

[@samijen]

really good names!!

[@bricksbrickman]

Hell yeah, new Sami video! and I would definitely go on a date with all of them!

[@samijen]

ayooooo

[@Skylar_minecraft]

samesies

[@honeybuntinkerbell5551]

❤❤ I love this idea of creativity. They all look so amazing. Could this be a series

[@RoadTooDawn511]

theses are amazing

[@runicdreamer]

I love this!

[@bleachbleachBLEACHER]

Watching people do character creations things always makes me want to do more character creation things!

[@TheRatKingOwO]

I absolutely love the strawberry monk! I really like the style of all of the characters too! I really liked the commentary of the video too but (and please don’t take this personally) I found that the speed draw itself hurt my eyes with the speed and the constant zooming in and out. I’m subbing though because I love the art here! Happy drawing! :D

[@plumadeprimavera]

The Stick Buddies would have been so funny and iconic😂💖

[@lorinlonike2378]

Idk about names, but I’m interested in thoughts on their classes! Inumimi: Lunar Sorcerer feels pretty obvious here :) Sunflower Elf: Either Battlemaster or Eldritch Knight, definitely a Fighter class. I could see him dipping into magic, but maybe that’s elf stereotyping 😅 Strawberries: Okay hear me out, she’s definitely a Monk but what if she’s *also* a Druid? 4 Elements Monk is very nature themed by itself, but I could easily see her taking Land Druid or Shepherd Druid for some extra utility/healing :p

[@LumineScara-tp9sw]

Your art is so good

[@becktacular]

Wow! You're an awesome artist 😆 I love how you left out character options that you didn't want to draw (I do a lot of 'roll for character' on my channel and I often get ones where I'm like...meh, I guess 😅)

[@nsideddice]

The moon phase magic is a cool.

[@gretazimmerman8299]

I'll have to try making my own characters this way!

[@GhostCracker0]

My fav is the strawberry monk demon and I would go on a date with the first 2. Your art is so pretty!

[@lucylume]

Love the Strawberry Monk design! ❤

[@sollordri8592]

A part 2 for this would be awesome

[@Skylar_minecraft]

PART 2, YES!!!!

[@mysticmagicsmurfdarklord6844]

You could possibly have put the witch hat behind her head, with a hat-fastener rope thing around the front

[@KieraAAG]

Never expected Samijen too be a dice goblin but it makes sense

[@cararosiee]

YES I LOVE THE SANDWICH GUY

[@matthewmorgan5108]

just founds you today but that looks awesome and love the designs

[@Skylar_minecraft]

same, and i agree

[@TrueVirken]

Such a fun idea that i shall try myself sometime! I really like the three characters and how their designs came out. For names i was thinking of Fraise for the Tiefling Monk (which means strawberry in French), then Solros for the Elf Lancer (which means sunflower in Swedish) and finally Sasikan for the Inumimi Mage (which means dear moon/beloved moon in Thai). For the last one i think calling her Sasi for short also sounds pretty cute. I would definitely take Fraise or Sasikan on a date and i would hang out with Solros for sure. Such a wonderful and great video!

[@weabug]

Strawberry Monk: Emer Su Talun Elf Mage: Daire Solsken Moon dog: Eileen Madigan

[@dahuntre]

Lovely lovely characters! And any excuse to roll physical dice is a good thing

[@Skylar_minecraft]

definitely

[@joselovesetnaguirre8689]

I liveee forrrr all threeeeee

[@MimikoMi-Chan]

Woah! They all look so good ❤!! How could I choose only one of them XD

[@Skylar_minecraft]

choose all of them?

[@MimikoMi-Chan]

@@Skylar_minecraft Yesssssss

[@keenanchalmers7478]

"It's like the Dice have spoken" The dice begging to draw a human.....

[@Skylar_minecraft]

or another elf

[@MikeTheRadBike]

ไอเดียสุดยอดไปเลย

[@ElizaShakiraMassani]

Shoulda thrown some stars or galaxy type things onto the dog girl… that probably would have helped not only the magical side but the aesthetic as well.

[@stormblaze9122]

Roll a one "You know what, let's cheat" Roll one again It do be like that

[@loemyn]

I LOVE THE ELF OMGG

[@isaquinos_vlogs]

16:27 this looks like a cool fantasy lockscreen.

[@AceOSpaceWithMace]

when i see western i don’t think european i think wild west, which is a VERY different theme which could definitely be a theme

[@iradavies]

I would’ve probably ended up drawing the first character as a man with red skin make him look like an oni but wearing pink looking all peaceful sitting under a tree but I like what you did with as well

[@jerrellmcdaniels4329]

Names 1. Sister Blossom Camarosa ( means pink strawberry more or less)( Female monks are nun, by the way, so she would be a "sister") 2. Professor Helianthus/ Prof. Sunny (Scientific name for sunflower)( Looks like a young/genius/ teacher to me) 3. Lila Crescent/Si Muang Seiyw ( the first name I made from a color of purple and a moon phase) The second would be the same but in Thai) I'm getting runaway princess vibes from this one

[@Anddq]

Behold dice collection. Me: needs more glitter

[@Skylar_minecraft]

i love that your pfp completely says the opposite

[@isaquinos_vlogs]

10:38 this character is cool and the design is great.

[@isaquinos_vlogs]

15:10 you could still do the hat you’d just need slits or ear holes for the ears. Assuming that is good advice for that

[@carafurry7862]

You are definitely at least a dice goblin!

[@LumineScara-tp9sw]

Damn the guy be looking good 😍

[@lemonminecraft9149]

The first character looks like she’s from realta!!!! Realta is a WEBTOON where people have characteristics of their star signs!!! She looks like a strawberry Aries

[@juicegirl2696]

twinkstenien was something I was not ready for

[@ja3far473]

12:05 i want that t-shirt i love it By the way cool art i love first one i love dragonborn

[@censheard7019]

For the strawberry monk, Berrika Strawborne! 🥳💕

[@coryscorgis]

Subscribed!

[@Skylar_minecraft]

date all of them!!! (not all at once, i'm not poly. I am however, pan so... idrc that it is 2 gals and a guy)

[@evilauthor9953]

I absolutely love your monk. She's so soft and adorable. I would happily play her in a D&D game...just not with my current group since I kinda just spent three years as a monk based off Vida Rocca from Power Rangers...BUT! love the designs. They would be a very interesting party indeed. You could still call them Stick Buddies even though your mage is without a stick. After all, dogs love when other people have sticks they throw.

[@Skylar_minecraft]

and the guy with the lance could use it as a spear...

[@Eyrenni]

I mean... they can still BE stick buddies. They throw and dog girl collects and brings them back. Sorry, I'll see myself out. Could work amazingly if you power up the staves with her magic though and just YEET.

[@Skylar_minecraft]

lol, don't go, we want more jesters!

[@Eyrenni]

@@Skylar_minecraft Thank you, I know my humor can be very dry at times.

[@azurerandomness]

oh wow hello :0 i didn't know you had a yt channel

[@custard9514]

We need more dice rolling

[@icymoontv]

11:47 You’re so real for that lol 😂

[@somethingisnotright5176]

The sumo bodytype would be so peak

[@honeyydew8609]

I really like these!! Are you doing artfight this year?!

[@samijen]

never done art fight before but i dont think ill have time this year. ill try out next year!

[@voronartista]

the second one is SO hot!!

[@stormwindsakuro8678]

ok just seeing the presentation of the theme and I think a cool change could be "medieval" instead of "western" but keep the "western" as western movies with cowboy and pistolero

[@samijen]

ahh, i think medieval is the word i was thinking of! thankyou for this suggestion~

[@sleepy.timaeus.arts.]

nice :)

[@virraell2514]

i would go on a date with strawberry tiefling. sunflower elf is very pretty and all but our vibes seem too different

[@The-Dragon-Hat]

Well, if they act silly on missipns or maybe hard to deal with, you could name them 'The Trio of Lucky Ganders' or something
