Actually the spurs on the mutated chicken woman are a great idea for a weapon. Have you ever been kicked by the spurs of a rooster?? That shit HURTS. I can imagine a group of livestock cowboys would probably use kicking with sharp spurs as a tertiary method of combat

Aria is funny because it’s also an opera term. Great designs 10/10

[@Xolnyxia]

It also means air, which fits the floating world theme

[@khaliyahjefferson832]

She reminds me of Melanie Martinez when she had that costume on

[@TheMagnoliaWitch]

The chicken woman with the spurs made me think of her using artificial spurs to keep up with the males of her race who naturally have spurs from their chicken ancestors to use in foot-fighting. So she's establishing herself as a fighter equal to the males and worth taking seriously as the leader of her crew.

*Montage of the badass witch ballerina girlypop pirates raiding another flying ship in a high speed race weaving through giant clouds shaped like mountains and flocks of mutated birds with an orchestral version of “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun”*

[@jadedisaster]

"a faun but with a ram instead of a deer" this is called a 'satyr'!! they're one of my fave creatures bc I looove big curly horns over antlers and the like!! this absolutely makes Aria my fave, I loooove the pink, girly things, combined with the bad bitch and spooky-ness

[@chloek1182]

satyrs and fauns are both rams. satyrs are just the greek version

[@m.thompson3919]

Do you know the beanie baby character's name? I want to get one!

[@dr.mortose163]

The Wizard made me laugh. Many years ago, in my D&D campaign Wizards and Goblins invented Pizza. Characters have been able to enjoy it ever since.

It would be so so so so cool if you made mafia boss character designs…

[@briannenurse4640]

I love when you draw something stupid. It's always stupidly incredible!

[@oilith]

That chicken is the epitomy of ridiculousness (in a threatening way). I love her.

[@Cosmic_Finn]

Saw the thumbnail and knew this is gonna be insane

[@figaroismycat]

Based on the season and thumbnail I thought this was a demonic Easter theme. I was wrong, but not disappointed.

[@Namse21]

25:28 cockroaches do have 2 pairs of wings: one for flying and one for protecting the flying ones, so that pretty on track!

[@Jamafly]

You walk on chicken lady's farm and you're done for. Rip intruder. Also imagine her laugh just the chicken cluck

[@miyasatoART]

bringing in the random generator for a theme is very drawfee core and i am loving the direction this is going

[@PersoMena]

The Beanie Baby drawing gave me lots of "Cult of the Lamb" vibes. The fast-food wizard was bizarre, but also kinda cool. Your description of the bedazzle cockroach pirate made me think of a story within a story I read once. A character was remembering a thief on the streets who spent an entire year establishing himself as an old beggar (either blind or lame, I forget which) who kept stumbling into people, and then once they'd just come to accept his presence, he began deftly helping himself to their pockets, and nobody ever suspected him. Like, maybe these trash pirates spent a good long while traveling the skies as *just* junkers collecting trash wherever they went, and then once they basically faded into the background, *that* was when they started stealing the good stuff, and nobody ever suspected the junkship. The chicken lady just made me laugh. This was fun!

[@lazy_lady14]

Single handedly teaching me bodies AND characters design ❤❤❤

[@nikignikhundredeyes]

ok no the wizards havinh the big implements on the 'wrong' sides is genius bc the way theyre oriented they can reach down n back n grab the handle of their respective weapon so ur perfect actually, kinda like a backwards sword scabbard EDIT: I LOVE THE SILLY ITS GR8

[@MoxNeC.-.0x]

The ram lady is one of the most beautiful character i ever seen, i love her sooooo much If you maybe make her costume one day im probably will die of happiness

[@Eco_Hiko]

Part of me wants to see the ram girl go full circle and become an art doll. I love the chicken design. I'd love to see a Strange Aeons Collab and I can't explain it

[@katiefiorella6371]

I used that ram beanie baby to draw a post-apocalyptic mutated dancer before. Nice choice, well back to the vid.

[@katiefiorella6371]

Love the vid!

[@jackalopexjackalope9870]

I like the idea of spurs being misunderstood, since horses don’t exist and maybe as animal mutants they can’t imagine the thought of digging spurs into a mount. And they instead just think they’re cool status symbols or something, just shoe bling. The gibbets of the cowboy world, so to speak. 🤣

[@Mespoina]

I love it! I'm a huge fan of your character design videos! In the next one Maybe trun birds into ballerinas? (Love what you did with the chicken) or a team of magical girl ballerinas? And to add more personality....you can draw their tutu/show costumes next to their everyday/casual wear?.... it's an out there thought but I just want to know your feelings on balletcore and ballet fashion and Idk maybe the ballerinas are shape shifters that turn into the birds their based on like in swan lake and they go to a magical ballet academy, think Alfea from winx club mixed with the ballet school from Suspiria...so yeah that's my suggestion.... (btw my favorite character is the fry cook multi wizard they are the best)

[@marveludus]

no but that’s actually such a cool idea?? and sounds HIGHLY cosplay-able

[@songbirddddd]

When you said ‘floating city’ I immediately thought of ‘the castle in sky’ from studio Ghibli, then I saw all the the Ghibli things in the Pinterest board and I just full out fanboyed for a few minutes because I absolutely love Ghibli. Also, I love your art and character designs! Your lore is also super interesting, keep up the good work :)

[@ungodfearingghost5476]

the wizards are how the wars gonna end everyone loves their food so much they dont care abut the war anymore

[@evelinamatousova5236]

Your character designs are genuinely the best I have ever seen and it doesn’t metter if it’s a witch or cowgirl-chicken.

[@288kt]

Love everything you do and having a PricklyAlpaca X Drawfee crossover would be amazing!!!

[@xbennly92]

whats ironic to me about the sponsor is i was literally just wondering what i could use to compile my dnd world 😭

[@jelly_biirb6497]

If anyone is looking for a post-apocalyptic show with similar amounts of silliness encapsulated here, Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts is this energy!

[@neutralthing1999]

I'm OBSESSED with all of these! Scary pretty lady, fast-food wizards, hot girl cockroach (fantastic name btw), cowgirl hen... They're all precious to me. What makes them so good to me is that you didn't shy away from the silly(tm). It helped gave them so much character, so much personality, that it's charming. The worldbuilding is also hella interesting. It's gonna be cool to see the next video talking about it more in detail (do take your time tho! No pressure, this is your fun time and the Muses of the Silly work whenever they want). All that to say, that I feel conforted by the though that I'm not entarely silly for making a common rain frog into a magical girl :) Great video!

[@gabriellyduarte6615]

Yay, my favorite creator posted a new video 😊

[@ChibiDevil245]

I'm absolutely OBSESSED with these guys, especially the fast food wizards and the cowgirl chicken. Can't wait to see the opera house murder expansion on this world 👀

[@whitneynewton9063]

This theme and the character designs makes me think of the movie "Stardust" and the crazy lightning pirates! I love this theme and the designs you made! Very fun and unique!

[@josephboechat6020]

Funny thing, when i did see the lamb plush with too many eyes my mind went straight to the sacrificial lamb from the book of apocalypse, who is a metaphor for jesus. Basically the opposite you did lol

[@aidenginger4522]

Your interpretation is fitting for Easter lol

[@Endriz]

Dude I flunked out of the smart class in third grade and got to stay in class and read scary stories to tell in the dark instead. Best time of my life.

[@chronosclaimsall]

1. Yes! Silly stuff is always welcome and appreciated 2. YAY DRAWFEE 3. A guest could be really fun, it would be interesting to see the difference in creative processes (that part of why I find Drawfee so fun too!)

[@nope6021]

I love the silliness of these guys! Their silliness makes sense in the world but it's still wild and fun. Very anime, very FoodWars and One Piece, very ttrpg podcast; a la Adventure Zone or Dungeons & Daddies. I love it. Whimsical and seriously intriguing but fun and silly too

[@IntenseCii]

George and Augustus absoLUTELY give me life. It is so close to Taako in exactly the right way 🎉❤

[@ledemon_hyru4]

Your ability of creating characters from seemingly nothing is absolute goals!!

[@AverageDigitalCircusfan]

If she made the character’s she’s drawn into shows I would cry and kick my feet in pure joy

[@TheArtFlower]

The hen character serves, by golly ✨️

[@smthqueer2869]

Did you ever consider redesigning characters? I would LOVE to see your version of the onepiece crew (possibly in this world just because it would be fun) I love your art and this absolutely bonkers concept!

[@sgoheen06]

So, I don't know if you will see this, but as it happens, chickens DO have spurs! It's a bony protrusion, like a horn, or a sort of extra talon, that sticks out behind their feet. They use them for fighting, so it's actually wildly appropriate for your chicken to have spurs!

[@pitchlag1502]

Hard YES to silly impro characters. I'll be first to admit I have a major bias for "silly thing that turns kinda serious when you start to get frond of it" kind of character creation and storytelling, but occasional sillyness genuinely helps refresh your brain and makes the creative juices churn good

[@v.v365]

I would’ve given the multi eyed sheep beanie baby character a bunch of random religious symbolism, like the many eyed seraphim, the goat/satan connection, the sacrificial lamb/scapegoat concept, all that jazz

[@AnglerVoiceActing]

Back to back uploads, what a treat

[@MrmGivesThumbsUp]

I've been bingeing your character design videos and just ran out! Excited for another one :))

[@marveludus]

need to stop being trans masc right now so i can go join Aria’s crew. i’m sure i can figure out the mutated animal part later

[@tiktokcompilation1568]

I feel like to be one of the airship girlbosses gender doesnt matter, just how much stars you have in just dance or smt

[@mangojuiceeee]

video idea for you specifically because.. you’re the best at this: weapon design video/mini tutorial

[@theblackplague950]

the fact that you mentioned arcan made me so happy because i absolutely love that show.

[@redherringoffshoot2341]

never pull your punches in the oddness front, oddness is literally part of what makes your work unique in the sense of being memorable

[@paolacintron6200]

These turned out great! Would love more silly character design, I honestly love how creative and unique your ideas for character design are!!

[@siennadebling5078]

this is so fun and so silly, i’m in love

[@oof6326]

If you’re still doing flowers/plants as characters, carnivorous plants would be cool to make into bounty hunters with weapons/methods fitting how each plant traps its food

[@v.v365]

It feels like if you mash together Treasure Planet and One Piece and I love it

[@3nvy-art]

I love these designs so much and the first one is my fav. It gives off these emoji 🕸🩷🐏🔪💅 I love it

[@francovacirca2180]

Two consecutive videos? This is glorious 💜✨

[@gravitynil24]

I really enjoyed the balance between both serious and silly and I honestly think you've hit a beautiful sweet spot.

[@stephaniecarbno]

I always love the character design videos be they serious or silly. The eldritch horror goat girl is my favorite from this video. Shes so cute!!!

[@sizohmthethwa]

Draw whatever makes you happy. We’ll always be here to watch and enjoy❤❤❤

[@sunshineartz1926]

Ah, glad to see I'm not the only person who has been taken over by the pirate bug

[@marialouise3450]

The fun (sad) thing about the spurs on the hen is actually a cool add-on because they use rooster in 'cock fights', where they get to use their spurs to k!ll other roosters (like dog fighting or bull baiting and sh!t)

[@loursehoshi]

Yes please, make more, those character design videos make my brain happy and relaxed. GIVE ME MOOOOOOOREEeeeeeee please. 🥰🥰🥰

[@kriegbunn357]

These would ALL BE AMAZING CHARACTERS IN A ONE SHOT CAMPAIGN OR SOMETHING as part of The Wandering Tavern! They are all so great!!!! Omg 🖤

[@Fenkque]

amazing meal today love these designs and their lore (the wizards are actually awesome)

[@lucylume]

I absolutely LOVE these videos, never stop making the wackiest, 'has no right to be this good' character design art ever. Also guests would be super fun and allow you to take a rest and let someone else help with these vids. xx

[@mikkib7921]

everything about this world is so fascinating, I need to watch a show or read a comic that takes place here stat. I am a connoisseur of silly guys and goofy concepts, so this is 100% up my alley and would LOVE to see more.

[@everfluctuating]

great character designs as always. i am commenting to say. i think roach captains ship is named the ss trashercove. like a play on the phrase "one mans trash is another mans treasure." that is all

[@WSchmidt09]

Okay, so these are all fun and delightful and deserve being spotlit on their own... but the chicken is incredible and should be forever memorialized. A+ character designing and an absolute joy to watch! (Also, side note, your make-up, hair, and fit are chef's kiss awesome. And so is rat Kiera.)

[@so.mewhatchaoticsquid-god212]

Truly multiple artists content is my favourite (long drawfee enjoyer) and I yearn everyday for artists friends who would do fun silly art things with me

[@le-oct4837]

one piece but in the air and and even MORE chaotic??? SIGN ME UP

[@mildlymarvelous]

This is a MASTERPIECE. I am absolutely watching more of these videos from you. PLEASE make more “silly stuff”.

[@JoBadger15]

I love this episode. First video of yours I have seen, been watching Drawfee for a while now so when you mentioned them I saw a little of the influence! Such cool Designs.

[@caitlinlahue3683]

An old game called Skies of Arcadia has a very similar setting. An ancient war destroyed the continents, so everyone lives on floating islands and the main characters are pirates (you're either a bad pirate or a Robin Hood style pirate). There's also 6 moons.

[@Starryvison]

Oh a suggestion! I love the way you explain backstories in these videos and I was thinking, could you do a video working on your original stories/worlds? I have been working on my own book/story for 3 years now and I would LOVE to watch a long video about how you worldbuild, make characters, plan plots and all that for your own stories :) I know you have done some redesigns before but I would love to also see some city/nation/landscapes for your own worlds that we havent seen in depth before! Love your content Kira ❤️❤️

[@Rosinalife]

“Like mike Wazouzki without his skin suit on” made me question my entire existence

[@salviaexpedition]

Idea for episode theme: turning weird sea creatures, like siphonophore, to characters🪼🦑. You have made wizards and vampires etc, but maybe princesses would be intersting as they have very different vibe to weird sea creatures. But you choose😊

[@salviaexpedition]

I’m so happy you saw this because siphonophores are so cool looking!!

[@tamaraeads3650]

I love this video, your silly character designs are the best ever and the worldbuilding and internal logic are genuinely so so cool!! the chicken is my favorite

[@Starz_Shine]

Reminds me of The Fog Diver, the surface is covered in fog and they have to live in the air. It has that kinda scrappy vibe + airships. Great book about rich people being scum✨️✨️

[@alexandralite835]

Fauns are ram/ goats like. The first rough sketch of her had me right away.

[@info-saturation]

You're genuinely one of the few people whose stuff makes my jaded cynical ass consistently go HOLY SHIT THAT'S SO COOOOOOL. Like I have a dumb smile glued to my face watching you design the stuff you come up with, be it clothing or characters.
