I Redesigned My Subscribers Characters (and I'd do it again)

- Today I’m redrawing YOUR characters. Half for fun, and half because some of the best help I’ve gotten in my art journey has been from direct feedback from other artists.

I like how accurate the redesigns are to the vibe of the original. I watched another video like this once and while the redesigns weren’t awful, some of them seemed to completely miss the point of the original in favor of showing off character design techniques, like giving a character who seemed a little closed off a full on villain makeover to show off triangle shapes. This feels a lot more personal.
yes!!! i am so thankful that the original characters' themes and personality weren't completely disregarded (and were instead embraced and utilized in the redesigns), i think that's something very important to keep in mind when redesigning characters that aren't your own

Your content is honestly some of the highest quality I've seen on UA-cam ever. I really dig how much better you're getting at editing and support you taking more time for quality. It makes a huge difference. I know you're already super busy but you still make time for stuff like this and it's just super admirable.
Would love to hear what you think about my quality? any feedback will greatly be appreciated.
Thank you man, really pushing myself to get up to present day UA-cam from my old man days starting out 😆

Mate absolutely love this format, it's so wholesome and welcoming. Rather than simple tips and transforming it to your personal style, you've have met artist where they are at and simply highlighted the small things they have overlooked. The eye contact between characters is such a good one, I don't often draw multiple characters at once myself and never considered how eye contact can reveal so much about their relationship.
Aw, yeah! Tina was the first one!
Thanks again, Brookes, I cant wait to see more!
Seeing someone draw someone else's character in their style has always been entertaining for me
YOOOOOOOO MELTDOWN IN THE VIDEO!!! LET'S GOOOOOO!!!!
It's always so much fun seeing different artist interpretations of the same character, because I feel like seeing those different approaches really highlights how there isn't one "right" way to do art.
I love character design, and you've been a huge factor of that love. I've been watching for a few years now. Thanks for all your insight. You've taught me so much and inspired me so much. I do not have much money, but I'd support you if I could. I have submitted a character. Thanks for all you do :3
Really great advice, delivered in such a wholesome way! I'd love to see more videos like this 🙂 (Also, "I get what they're going for, but I don't have to like it" is such a great reminder that it's ok to dislike something that other people like. Nobody has to fight!)
this is cute. reminds me of being in art class back in high school
Just submitted my own art for the first time, never felt like my art was worthy of being shown here, but after finishing art college, I have been hard at work to hone my confidence in my own work.
Yeeesss you go! 👏 🎉
You are a very polite, nice person. I love how you break down and explain your steps in a digestible way, I'm lucky to have find and seen your videos and channel.
You did a great job keeping the feel of the designs unlike another channel I won't be naming
I'm liking the idea, I hope this can turn into a healthy series-
YEAAA IN THERE
thank you for taking the time to critique and review my OC Brookes, great vid overall
only actual thing ill say is my new @ (ignore my channel name) is SodaVampyr
thank you again for the critiques!
Edit: updated my channel name to Sodavampyr, used to be MeltdownAstral
Get it girl!
Oh gotcha sorry about that! So glad you liked it!
I submitted a character! Thank you so much Brookes for always feeling like that gentle uncle everybody loves - or is that just me haha ^^
You are awesome
The advice that you give in your videos are really solid! Glad my friend introduced me to your channel a few years back. I also filled out the form on the description, keep up the good work Brookes, your videos rock!
Just chiming in to boost the algorithm and echo everyone else that this was a great video and both the feedback and the new designs were very cool to see.
Thanks so much!
Really awesome format for an art critique & character design class all in one, definitely the best I've seen so far! I love the idea of drawing a faithful version & an in-your-style version, as that not only shows you how to improve on & fix any mistakes, but also how to extrapolate that information into your own thing entirely. The thought process of character desing principals and redesign choices for the changes you would make in your own version are also very much appreciated. Super respectful of the artists' work too. Thank you so much for the effort you put into these
Very glad you like it, appreciate it! Would love to do more of this, unfortunately because of the amount of time required the audience just really doesnt seem to be there for it yet
@@CharacterDesignForge That's completely understandable, it definitely is a lot of work. I'm sure as the channel grows, more people will be keen to learn from content like this. Until then, I hope you keep doing what feels right to you 🙏
Watching your videos have helped me a lot with my character design. I definitely look at shape language, color, and making the character seem more like themself a lot more now, thanks to you. I have also submitted a form. Have a great rest of your day!
I love this video!! Love seeing your approach to characters and your thought process as well.
Just submitted my own character.
Whether or not you have time to look at it, this has been an awesome video and a very helpful one too. Looking forward to more.
I filled out the form! I love the they way you critique these and hope to see what you do with my character!
I'm late to the game, but I also submitted a character. It was a really helpful exercise to think over my character again. Thank you for your videos! They've been helpful throughout my artistic journey :D
Glad they help!
Fantastic video and these are definitely my favorite style of critique
i sent in a lil guy :) i love redesign videos a lot but can never get into them because the creators are huge and already have too many requests by the time i could ever send anything in. great vid!
This is a great video! I already filled out the form, btw.
Awesome video, Brookes, I really like when you do videos like this!! I like to reinterpret characters for fun, too. It really highlights the artistic individuality between yourself and the original artist, especially when comparing what you both prioritize in terms of style and such. I think it's neat to see, and I end up learning a thing or two along the way! :D
Brookes, you’re a great person. I love your positivity and your humour ❤
i love watching your videos, and give great art tips. ever since i started watching you i feel like of gotten better at my art. thx :)
I'm so glad!
MELTDOWN AWESOM
I’m happy to have found your content, I been having trouble getting back into my art, but your content helped me get back into it
AAaaa Meltdown is there !! Yayyy :D
Love seeing these type of video, helpfull funny and great for learning!
I absolutely love how you break down character designs! I decided to submit a form! So excited to see what you look at next!
This was so fun to watch!
Really love this kind of series. Especially like the last one you re-interpret the character.
Very impressive the way you change the dress so quickly to improve the separation.
Can’t wait to see more of character re-do .❤
Man, your videos have to be my favorite art/character design related videos ever! As with everything you make as of late this series is so well informed! :0
Also uh, I submitted my character through the google form hfjsngnskjks
Great job with the redrawings. I'll try to remember these tips while designing characters.
I submitted my favorite character from my indie project to be redrawn by you. Hope to see how it looks in the future. I could tell I'm gonna love it, it's gonna be great!!
Love your video! I wish more youtubers mentored like you.
Sent one in for fun, but I'm definitely gonna resub to the patreon on my next big cheque. Love your content as always.
Glad to see ya back
Love this video Brookes! This was really helpful 😊✨💙. Also definitely check out Brookes’ character design work for fundamentals advice!
(I will also fill out a form for my character)
I absolutely love your videos, they helped me break out of a creative rut a few months back. And I love rewatching your vids. 🤎💜💙
Filled out the form!! Love your work! :)
welp i sacrificed my beloved kei into the forums. lets see how this goes lmao. good luck and i love your designs!
I filled out the form. I'm always looking to improve, especially since the character I submitted is going to be a main character for a comic.
such a great video, thank you for the opportunity, summited mine :)
I loved this video! Commenting to say I filled out a form :)
I like this. Instead of roasting you’re giving only constructive advice 😊
I always look forward to these, hoping mine gets picked
had to cancel my patreon sub a month or two back for financial reasons, and im glad i still get the opportunity to have my work seen this way! sent in an oc im planning on redesigning eventually anyway to get some inspiration :3
decided to submit one of my characters, just kinda curious what you'd do with them
Very good!
Boulder Dash here! Quiet lurker of the channel, but I've gone ahead and given a subscriber based submission for ya!
Lucky artist !
Real Talk... I Really want to toss Biff at you just to see what you'd do to him, but I want to make sure I do it through the Novice Bard tier so you get paid for the troubles. No one deserves to suffer my strip style without some proper compensation. = P
Hehe i disagree but appreciate it sincerely!!
would you ever open up a discord for everyone to get together and maybe even help eqch other out with thier character designs?
There’s a server for patrons!
I'm gonna redesign your character then redesign your character again.
True! And then I did do it again, this past week!
I love these opportunities of not only learning from you, but also receiving direct feedback! If only I could become a patreon... Maybe one day 💛
Edit: filled the form! I believe I signed as Ninja or Ninja_a_furry
Are you fine if I send a group of characters for a dream project on a line up?
It is because I got all but two ideas from my friends.
I would like to see what you would do with my characters. But I don’t have an instagram account.😢
Make sure to watch the end of the video, no Instagram account needed!
This seems pretty cool, wondering if I can show off an old drawing you can see? Do I have to make a new drawing? Digital only, or also can be paper?
Is there a way to send mine? I wanna see what you come up with. though, I'm no artist myself... Oh... I just didn't draw any of the pictures of my character and I'd feel bad having someone else's work get commented on.
Make sure to watch to the end of the video!
@@CharacterDesignForge yeah I got there and was like “that’s how”.
I have a ton of charachers I designed for nearly 15 years now. I'll love to share them if you wanna redesign them. :)

I have this thing where I will sometimes spend up to four or so hours on a sketch, I feel somewhat indecisive on whether or not i should keep going, and recently it’s paid off, I didn’t realize that I didn’t have a character yet and it seemed like an average skeleton to what it is now, but even still I don’t know if I should start inking or not…
My character is this giant fisherman, walking through a forest with a huge net of fish if you were curious
I (the son of the person who made this account) filled out the form. I just hope i filled it right.
I have completed the form for help with redesigning my character Aspen the reindeer. Hope you can squeeze it into one of your future redesigning characters videos. 😄😀
I almost want to get one of my characters critiqued, but I have a feeling I wouldn't have much of a chance of getting selected.
Hey I’m also trying to make Independent, animated series, but having a hard time coming up with a character and designing it I know I have a UA-cam channel to I know people usually don’t respond to comments but if you could, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
All the best to you! - but what is your question?
@@CharacterDesignForge well, my question is like how do you come up with such good characters like your character is awesome and well when I make characters they just don’t turn out right, so how do you do it? And Thank you
@@Film-maker842 Well that's the entire point of my channel and the Learn Character Design course :)
@@CharacterDesignForge oh okay I’m new to your channel thank you
