You sent me MORE cool images & I turned them into weird characters 🌺🎸🦆(CHARACTER DESIGN CHALLENGE)#2

[@v.v365]

I desperately want the Duck Tea Lady and the Steampunk Cat Man to exist in the same steampunk world

[@ThePerennialEffect]

He hunts the birds, she tries to save them. But when all the birds in the city begin to mysteriously disappear, they must work together to find out who is behind the chicknapping. When they start to develop feelings for each other along the way, it really puts a cat amongst the pigeons.

Imagine the collective noun for owls was ''a pile of owl"

[@lavender-rex]

like how a group of crows is a murder, a group of owls is a pile

[@trashotaku]

Fun fact, a group of owls can be called a parliament, wisdom, congress, hooting, or a stare. When in flight, they can be referred to as a silence

[@miguelcruz2941]

The heart symbol in the Japanese axe is called Inome (猪目) it's suppose to represent a wild boar's eye and it's a symbol of determination and bravery, since a wild boar will always charge at its target with determination. It's found in many old Japanese weapons. It is also a good luck symbol and is found in temples as well.

[@Bea_the_witch]

the lil pile of owls pic always gives me back alley gang vibes but they're too cute to be scared of. but you're slightly intimidated by the sheer amount of them.

[@Wiz1800]

I think the tea cup is my favourite - it’s giving eccentric frazzled spinster living her best life and I love it ✨ Hope anyone reading this has a nice day/ evening!! :))

Screaming crying throwing up at your cat guitarist, he is everything ✨️✨️✨️ And Victorian Duck Lady looks very wonderlandian to me! Like she would go after the Mad Hatter for using duck feathers in his hats but then the next moment sit down with him at a mad tea party

[@Gilmore-Girls]

An idea that I had for the duck tea Victorian lady was that as a child she grew up on a farm that had a pond that every summer she went to see the ducks and got very attached to them, they were are a part of her and that’s why she is now and activist :D

[@mini_bubs8136]

Mr. Angel over here looks like Pearl's grandfather (and I love it) He also feels like he should be a character in Hazbin Hotel

[@trashotaku]

1:41 I too have a fear of the ocean/bodies of water with living creatures in them but I adore making characters based on creatures found in the said bodies of water

[@stinkylmao]

I literally freaking love your designs they make my day so much better

[@static_opal]

id love to see kira make liminal spaces into characters thatd be so cool-

[@GhostlyPigeon_]

I love these designs especially the first one, it was executed very well

[@gratefulmama618]

the duck activist lady is the best thing i have ever seen. she reminds me of that old lady with the pigeons from home alone 2, but in a past life with ducks✨love these kinds of videos and so glad you enjoy doing them! 💖

[@CanCanCancel]

The Tea Duck Drawing Reminds Me Of Mary Poppins Lovely❤ Practically Perfect In Every Way

[@halley8105]

I love the angel guy. They're a vibe. Tea cup lady and Steampunk Cat are like eccentric besties, or siblings or something. They meet up every now and again to complain about mistreatment of animals and other stuff

[@thesarawilliams7431]

Because of the backgrounds I feel like they are all apart of some superhuman superhero team!! Like they all seem to kinda fit together in a wacky goofy fantastical way

[@erinbathie-moore8478]

Victorian Duck Tea Lady is the kind of wholesome crackhead energy that I strive for in life 💜💖

[@CertifiedCrow19]

Y'know when a character design itches your brain in just the right way simply because of the intricacies, silhouettes, linework, and beautiful proportions? That was the entirety of this video for me- like, I just... omg, each and every one of these just makes me so happy, even just at the lineart stage. They're all so gorgeous and I love these characters

[@WSchmidt09]

I adore these videos so much; these characters are just so different from what we see a lot from you (except for the magical girl, but I will never complain about you drawing a beautiful armored lady with a weapon). It's cool to see you stretch your artistic muscles. Thanks for letting us throw a collective storm of inspiration images at you!

[@isacocca3187]

Your costume design and making videos are helping me to come out of my art block

[@evan50748]

I would like a sleep paralysis demon that is just a pile of owls… I absolutely love the duck lady, sleepy shark & steampunk cat man

[@eyjayy]

would have never guessed there was no script. you did great! it's always shocking to me that you do so many designs per video

[@chancehanlin2747]

Your catboy gave me such big inspiration for this reimagining of The Brothers Grimm's "The Town Musicians of Bremen". And not just cuz he's giving very tumblr sexyman lol

[@taspiradee6272]

Literally, your designs blow me away every time, and I am absolutely loving this new series. A part of me feels like the steampunk cat man would be a usually rather quiet gentleman called Sebastian, but once he dons his gear, he goes by Bast for short, like the Egyptian goddess of cats, and absolutely feels like he can be himself as some kind of sophisticated daring do

I love how the tea duck lady is just straight up giving Penelope from Greek mythology. I refuse to believe she’s British lol

[@sunflowerspirited4974]

I'm imagining Duck Activist woman and Mechanical Cat man as a steampunk setting power couple and I'm living for it

[@kelstitch]

All of these designs turned out so beautifully! They’re all so cool and have such a spice of variety to them. my faves are the first heavenly badass lady and the British birb activist, fighting for women’s (+trans women) rights and also birb rights simultaneously are such endearing qualities of a lady. Also if you wanted to include how tea is apart of her character aside from liking it, maybe she’s become fond of it due to learning from her sabbatical travels that it’s good for health, and also maybe she enjoys having tea parties with her birb and duck children as she grew a fondness for them after a family of birbs joined her for one. Also btw that pile of owls gave me a different energy of chaotic birb hybrid siblings but they’re children lmao

[@clairebear9886]

These are all so cool! The duck tea lady and the steampunk cat both look like characters straight out of Alice in wonderland or the wizard of Oz, and I feel like the angel character would have a very similar voice/demeanor to Alistair from Hazbin Hotel, I dunno they just have that certain vibe about them

[@lelo5756]

Woahh I love how the picture I sent to you (the winged eyes xD) turned out like it looks so sick! I just saw that pic and was like I want to see that as a character and u delivered like holy Thanks for involving the community in projects like this you are an amazing artist

[@jybutbynyn]

It would be really cool if you did a kind of series where you show how you render/draw different materials (like armor, motifs or even hair) and studies of materials/stuff you want to learn how to draw/render better

[@apocryph0n]

Man, I would die for 1880’s duck tea Londoner lady, that design is incredible!! Do I also just love tea, teacups, ducks, and the second bustle era? Yes. Yes I do. I mean, the two aren’t mutually exclusive. If someone had worn this design at the Gilded Age Met Gala a while ago it would have been thoroughly amAzing.

[@lavender-rex]

These designs were all amazing and so creative. I love your art style and your awesome story ideas. here are some name suggestions! cloud castle lady: Rosie or Rosalynn, rocker cat boy: Bandit or Freddie, angel person: Jester or Duke, sleepy shark man: cadwell or albert, duck tea lady: Elizabeth or Margret, steampunk cat man: Viran or Vincent or maybe Sully or Roue

Why is no one talking about that ADORABLE shark dude?!! He's literally everything I love him so much.

[@sipsfactsandtea5535]

19:50 a idea for backstory could be that maybe she (or her family) owned a tea company and had ducks and other birds on the property to keep bugs and other pests away from the tea plants and stock. I love her design and little ducks sm they are so cute 😭

[@kryki_cha6206]

Steampunk cat man stole the show. Outstanding designs across the board!

These are awesome! My favourites are the first pink gal and steampunk kitty 😊

[@AngelavengerL]

omg sleepy shark is so cute! As a super doting cat mom I do feel blessed to see these adorable cat characters. I don't know if you are seeing comments on such old videos. If not that's fine I want to help the algorithm either way. If you do see it, sometime consider Pallas cats or sometimes known as Manols! They are the grumpy cute fluffy cats of the wild kingdom and I wish more people knew about them!

This feels like a D&D party. You could have an elven fighter/barbarian, tabaxi bard, Aasimar/Deva (not sure on a class for this one, maybe warlock?), triton sorcerer/wizard (for the sleep spell), human druid, and a human/elven artificer.

*tips hat to victorian duck woman* m'llardy. I love love love the way you make a sketch into sketchy "lineart" and then paint under and on top of it and also use it to add shading it is just so nice!!

[@etheraea]

These are so iconic omg??? I think my favorite is the sleepy shark. like 10/10 that is one sleepy shark!!! i relate to him on many levels, i hope he is getting the best of snoozes. The ultimate question is...does he honk shoo honk shoo or does he simply snork mimimimi?? Such pondering will keep me up at night for sure. Also omg thanks so much for linking the info on that heart axe! It's so fun to read about in more context since i remember seeing that tweet 😊

Hi Kira! My kid actually sleeps with a little shark plushie called Tibu (taken from the spanish word for shark, tiburon), and we were pleasantly surprised when you designed a sleepy shark :) and of course, he's friend (and banana) shaped.

[@wolfgirlkiss]

Duck Tea lady gives me the vibe of the young Tea Company heiress. She always had an Infinity with animals and has chosen this is the cause she with live or die for which gives her father a bit of a headache. However this is his beautiful pride and joy of a daughter so she often is allowed places with her ducks including the tea factory. The mysterious Catman feels like a villain or at least anti-hero thief. Perhaps he's a wrong inventor taking out his revenge on others. Maybe he wears the mask to hide his identity or some kind of burn or scar?
