7/10 ;; I like the actual dog, but the accessories are way too bright and colorful to me and the palette doesn't go well together, but that's just my opinion, since I prefer characters with cohesive palettes.

This new boy? He's a completely blank slate and so any name and/or story ideas would be appreciated. I just got him.

Unfortunately the person I got him from doesn't know who designed him.

10/10- I really like the concept of this design and I love the yin and yang thing on his head! The aura makes him feel like a ghosted and mysterious character. All the markings correspond correcfly and the arm bands are pretty cool and different too! A name would be nice

This boi Aero? Hes my favoruite oc of mine so please be aware of this. Base is by Waitress.

7/10 He's kinda not suited to my tastes, but what I do love is the chocolate mint colors he has along with the white hoodie and ripped pants (jeans?). I get a bit of a "hipster" from him but that's more just me. Other than that, I think he would look good with a few more markings, some mint colored blotches here and there or even a couple stripes.

Amor? By unknown (pm if you recognize the art, please)

eight point five / ten.
What a unique character! I am loving that overall design. I'm not a big fan of pinks, but I think it looks very good in that combination with the lavender. The hooves/paws combo throws me off a little, but is definitely an interesting design choice. The ears just look super cool, and I love the little horns. The sudden pink on the belly seems somewhat awkward, personally, since it's quite bright compared to the other colors. I definitely like the tail. I'm very curious to see why they look the way they look. ^^ Great job.

10 / 10 ! i love him so much ;^;

I really like the concept of him eating crayons, and the design is smooth and simple, yet not too boring I don't see a lot of cryptid-esque characters on this website very often so it's really nice to see ^^ sorry if my critique sucks.... i love his design a lot though. i even decided to do a quick 3-minute doodle of him: here

and I guess I have to link my own character here now... i don't really have characters?? lmao.. i just wanted to respond with a critique xD



by me, like 2 years ago lmfo, and lines by pandoras-island on da

idk it's a real pretty design tho

8/10 i love this color scheme, and the markings are cool, but it's a little too busy for my taste? Like it has a lot going on and seems like it'd be super hard to draw.

I'll post somebody different for once lmao. How about james? https://sta.sh/0rdj4dya3nc
info+more art here -- https://sta.sh/2e1xhfcjm8x?edit=1 I'd appreciate it if you could read/skim the info!

10/10 ;; While his design is simple, it definitely fits well in his setting and the atmosphere you've put him in. Plus,
there's nothing wrong with simple when it's done right c; I do also love hitman characters, and this guy in particular is pretty fascinating, especially given his weapon of choice. A faucet pipe for maiming is unique and not something you see every day, haha.

I need to stop buying new characters. But anyway, this new girl? I'm currently trying to decide between the names Jezebel, Diana,
Asha, or Alexandria. I'm very indecisive.

Basically, she's the queen of a rather large tribe that she prefers to refer to her kingdom. She's a peaceful ruler, but often comes across as cold and emotionless, primarily because she can have a bit of a temper and tries her best not to let it get the better of her, but also because she wants to come across as impartial at all times. She does a lot for her tribe, and often leads them on hunts, preferring to involve herself in their lives rather than sitting on some fancy throne. Sanaki, despite his resentment for authority figures, is indebted to her because she saved him from being on the brink of death, and she likes to make sure he remembers that. She has little tolerance for insubordination, and tends to keep a close eye on him.

Oh btw, the reddish brown spots on her legs and ears actually aren't markings, but henna ink. It protects her paws from rugged terrain and from drying out, and it keeps away bugs and parasites as well. (Historically, it was commonly used on salukis and other hunting dogs in the middle east.)

I love a really well thought-out character. I really like her natural coloration and simplistic design. Royal characters are fascinating as well, and I like that she is an active leader, rather than one who sits back and watches. I like the incorporation of the henna as well, its really nice to use a real piece of historical knowledge in a character's creation.

This boy is one of my favorite characters. He's a sea serpent who was used in an immortality experiment gone wrong, instead of becoming immortal and mind-controlled by his creator, Anti becomes a vengeful ghost trapped in the lab.
Name: Anti, nicknamed "Antiny"

Species: Sea Serpent

Gender: Male

Abilities: (Ghostly) Possession, imbues host with serpent form and abilities. Mimicry-Anti tends to take on personality of given host. Phasing through walls, seems to float as if weightless but can move around normally if he tries.

(Normal) Breathe underwater, heat sensing of prey and other animals, like a snake.

Personality: Naturally curious, Bi-polar, tends to take on traits of host. Friendly unless provoked. Wary of humans. Generally dislikes scientists as a rule through fear association. Vengeance-driven.

Design and artwork both by me.

He's a cute character, I like his back story- it's unique and interesting. His design is a bit simplistic for my taste, but I do like the black/blue dots along his body. The colors used throughout the overall design compliment each other nicely, I do like his tongue and eye colors, they give the design a nice "pop!" His facial markings are super cool, I love how it goes along his muzzle-area and loops around the eye. Also, I really like his ghost form and how the colors are more pale compared to his normal form.

Ceres?

I'll be linking Ceres' TH profile, since the piece is a bit large. There's additional information about her (if you want to read it) in the link. I apologize for the watermarks.

10/10 ;; To begin with, the lantern really stands out to me. I love lanterns, especially when they're incorporated rather smoothly into a character's design. I also really dig the subtle palette. It's not too bright, but it manages to pull off having several different colours in it while still being cohesive. I also really like the blue eyes; they pop quite nicely against the otherwise neutral tones. I also love her personality, it's fun and makes her cute appearance seem quite deceptive.

My new boy, Sanaki? He's the former prince of a forest-based tribe, but after being falsely accused of a crime, he was exiled. Since then, he's become a wanderer and a mercenary, doing odd jobs here and there for money. He's a bit of a grump at times, but he has a good heart. Rather than trying to prove his innocence, he's turned his back on his tribe, not wanting anything to do with a system so corrupted that they don't even believe their own rightful heir. The bow, while functional, is more of an ornamental accessory, as he prefers to use his spear if he needs to fight. Despite his resentment towards his old tribe, he often winds up sending the majority of the money of makes back to his mother, who was the only one who actually stood up for him when he was being accused.
He has since taken up refuge with her Clan, after she saved him from nearly dying after suffering grievous injuries. Though he's not pleased about it, he's found himself in her debt because of it, and because of the rather large sum of money she gave him to serve her Clan (knowing he wouldn't be able to deny it).

From a design standpoint, ignore the white on his paws. I'll probably be getting rid of it when I redraw him.
