if you want your lady knight to be cursed but don't want it to be because she sucks, you could always do a lineage-based curse! like a parent/grandparent did something weird and she was cursed before she was even born, or the parent/grandparent lived with the curse and once they died she got stuck with it!
i think a cool idea for the second character is that instead of just carrying around the remains of the animals, maybe she starts wearing the remains as like an easier way to carry it and to pay tribute to them, bear/dear pelts on her back, some form of skull covering her face, jewelery made of bones, armor from leather. just an interesting thought i had :) love ur vids !!
I totally get what you mean about drawing just regular modern people. I love art history and old fashion but I myself am NOT fashionable or current so whenever I have to draw modern people I really struggle with making them interesting because even if it’s realistic, I hate drawing everyone in jeans and tshirts. All of my characters are in some different time period or a fantasy world where I can make up the clothes
Please, keep continuing onward doing these extraordinary, fully imaginative and highly creative characters. Loved hearing about them so much. It made my morning even better. You're so enriching and down to earth! Sincerely, Thank You! Liked the lady night and the Goddess a lot! Would enjoy to see more of the ones whom they're involved with and more.
my headcanon is that the fourth character is the goddess and the knights child (because this is a magical situation where lesbians can have bio children lol) and has been watching over her parents forest for thousands of years, and the city she now lives in that was taking over the forest grew from the village from the goddess story
16:34 I think one of the most important parts is recognizability. Like for example, Maple from gravity falls. She always is wearing a fluffy sweater, and has her hair down. Studying how to make recognizable character is something that would be a valuable tool. edit: Like for example, adding little symbols on the knight's armor, symbols from her kingdom when she was knighted. Maybe some fur at the start or end of her coat, since she has to carry whatever she kills. Or adding fishnets that are actually shaped like hearts instead of diamonds on the femme fatale. Maybe a sleek bag with a logo on it, or a unique chocker.
We just want to point out the hands- so well drawn, and every bit as expressive as the faces! This is one skill that a professional illustrator needs to develop, and it's great that @lilstarnerd shares her process so people new to drawing can get guidance!
I love all of these designs and your art style!! I absolutely applaud anybody that can do traditional because as a mainly digital artist, I find traditional to be insanely hard. I love all of the backstories you created, sometimes that’s the hardest part of creating a character. As someone who has been drawing and creating characters for over 10 years, I agree with literally everything you said and how you went about your progress. The only thing I wanted to add is don’t be afraid to create a basic character!! A lot of people are against simple designs but honestly, sometimes it really says a lot about their personality and backstory. Many artists create super intricately designed characters and don’t do simple designs which is great! But there are other artists who tend to create simple designs which is amazing too. As someone who does both, both types can say a lot about a character. So what I’m trying to say is don’t be afraid to create the character you want to create and have fun making the design you want to bring into the world. Anyways, thank you for creating this video and I will definitely be looking at the rest of your channel 🫶♥️
I feel like it would be super cool if character 3 (femme fatal) and character 4 (modern dryad) were in the same story. Like 3 works for the company that is polluting the city, but she hates it and is planning on killing the men in charge or something, or is sent to kill 4 because she is causing problems for the company (kind of a meg from Hercules character). Then 3 and 4 team up to take down the company and restore the forest (maybe an enemies to lovers trope in there too hehe).
The third character reminds me so much of Ada Wong (who’s also a hired mercenary) from resident evil! Specifically the second game where she wears a similar red dress.
These are really pretty!! Super well done. I would like to say, you're quite harsh on yourself for example about the 3rd design, because of it's simplicity, but a simple design is not a bad one. If a design is accomplishing what you wanted it to, communicating the idea you were aiming for, then it's a successful or "good" design no matter how detailed it is or anything like that! Be a little more kind to yourself :) 💖
OH MY GOD!!! YOU DID MINE!! the second I saw the thumbnail I thought I saw some of the pins I saved!!!, I immeditalty started freaking out when you said my name and spammed the video link to all my friends lol.
I Hope i can make a board next time ! It would be so fun to see your visions on the things I have in mind :D also about character design I was thinking about shape theory. It might help you with your journey on character design (Obviously you don’t have to go as exaggerated like some cartoonist do) plus it’d make a fun video :)
Hello I just wanna say I LOVE your style so much and I was wondering if you could maybe make a tutorial or give some tips of poses or how you draw body’s? Because I’ve been struggling with that a lot and I really like your way so if you feel like you would maybe want to do that I would be so grateful and if not totally fine ❤
Really enjoyed this video! Also, I really love the prints/decoration in your room, is there any time soon we can get another room tour? (pls the prints on ur walls are a must have!!!)
*cracks fingers* The goddess has a harem of women after she gets them to stay with her & the knight was a person guard of the princess of whom she fell in love with. She did everything for her & even snuck her out whenever the duties got too much. One day, the knight was asked to capture an owl for the princess's collection & went to another forest. She managed to capture a rare animal & brought it to the princess alive who had gotten it killed which angered a witch. As a knight it was her duty to protect her princess & took a hit for a curse. The sins of what the Princess ordered (to do with animals only) then fell upon the knights shoulder who had to keep a sack of animal bodies. She hoped that her taking that hit, the princess would see how much she cared for her. When she caught the princess sneaking out to see a man, she fled with her sack of sins-- she entered the goddess' forest who sensed the curse and watched from afar as the village asked for her help seeing the knight armor. She goes to look for the missing women as she only thought they wanted them found to protect them. Cue her meeting the witch harem & her learning of what the people of the village actually wanted. They agreed for her to stay so she would give them protection- they realized her curse after she caught a rabbit for them. The goddess makes an offering: join the harem & try to make the goddess fall for her then she would break the curse or keep the curse and only be a protector. -insert enemies, friends to lovers here-
The fem fattale gives me an idea for this character, a woman that was scammed of her money and wealth by someone she trusted and now she punishes rich arrogant men.
I think a heart shaped dagger for her would be nice at first I thought you gave her long boots and heart shoes would be nice. I feel like she works in an all woemn organization maybe it has something to do with her past or her relationships with other people maybe both. Or maybe she was young forced prosti❤tute or p star who dabbles in only f. Maybe add oprhan with the rest or traffic❤ked which is why she attacks men because usually men are the ones behind this stuff. I also think a fur or silk scarf would look nice on her. The last girl gives me hippie vibes the last two would end up not liking each other to being great partners and the hippie dabbles in spirtial modern day witch craft
…. Genuinely don’t think i ever said any men were evil?? I mean if i did i don’t think that requires much explanation but ya i don’t think i said that lol
@@Lilstarnerd oh rip got excited haha i know you plan to venture into ur own space so i was surprised that it was happening so soon ((if/when that ever happens, im super looking forward to watching you decorate your studio))

The city forest spirit is like a character that would fit right into The Magicians. And if you haven’t seen that show or read the books you should!

Omg I'm the alex that sent the first board I absolutely love what u made!!!!! Im so hyped honestly I'm freaking out
SLAYYY THANK YOU ALEX FOR THE AMAZING BOARD!!
I know that prickly alpaca has made similar videos before, but its such a fun concept I hope everybody keeps doing it

For the first one I honestly thought of a human hippogriff, put the wings and faun sort of legs and gave it like poofy hair. I really loved them all
The third character reminds me so much of Ada Wong (who’s also a hired mercenary) from resident evil! Specifically the second game where she wears a similar red dress.
Oh my gosh! they all look so good. Great job. The first one is also really pretty.

Loooooove this!! Just how you colour and the story ideas!
I just stumbled across your channel and let’s just saw I binged on a few vids. And ugh. You’re amazing! Thanks for being here. 🙏🏼
OH MY GOD!!! YOU DID MINE!! the second I saw the thumbnail I thought I saw some of the pins I saved!!!, I immeditalty started freaking out when you said my name and spammed the video link to all my friends lol.
THANK YOU FOR AN AMAZING BOARD!!!!!
yessss make this a series pls 🥺 I love the way you've linked the characters together
all 4 have great base lines, but you def can tell which one you had more interest in 🙂🙃
PricklyAlpaca did that a lot so maybe that make you think it was a meme
I remember it being a thing back on ig in like 2018-19?? Not sure if she was doing pinterest board designs then!!
Your art feels like clean sheets on a warm but brisk Sunday morning
k making me tear up a it
I Hope i can make a board next time ! It would be so fun to see your visions on the things I have in mind :D also about character design I was thinking about shape theory. It might help you with your journey on character design (Obviously you don’t have to go as exaggerated like some cartoonist do) plus it’d make a fun video :)
love this series!!!
I’m surprised you don’t like the last one as much. She’s my favorite!
My first thought for the third character was that she was one of the first witches the goddess took in
Thank you for blessing us with another video in this series

I love this video oh my god, this idea is so cool and your drawings looked awesome! the boards were all so pretty in their own way. loved ittt.
Thank you!!! Ikr the boards themselves are so fun!!!

Ah! Love this! Would love to see more in this series :)
wonderful storytelling
You are actually so creative!!
As a Swedish person I get the feeling that the first person is Nordic folklore because her story reminds me of something like skogsråets!
omg love!!!
I only just found your account and I already know it will be a favourite of mine
Hello 😍 I just found your channel and I love it.
May I ask you which version of Ohuhu do you use?
Thank you very much. I appreciate your content
Beautiful 😍 😊
Can we get links to the boards? So inspiring!❤
hiii do you mind sharing what art supplies you used for this video? I really like the skin colors but I can't find any that good :(
Is there anyway we could see the boards on Pinterest for inspiration?
The fem fattale gives me an idea for this character, a woman that was scammed of her money and wealth by someone she trusted and now she punishes rich arrogant men.
how do we submit boards? I'd love to make one for future videos in this series!
Where can we see those boards??
Cool
Hear me out ....the third design is the gf the sex worker/prostitute robot from the last vid runs away with

Why are the men evil in these stories?
…. Genuinely don’t think i ever said any men were evil?? I mean if i did i don’t think that requires much explanation but ya i don’t think i said that lol
My bad the men go crazy in the goddess’ story line. crack open a history book on witch trials if you need an explanation for that one
uhmmm... u dont look like ur in ur room 👀
Lol just using a friend’s space for a sec
@@Lilstarnerd oh rip got excited haha
i know you plan to venture into ur own space so i was surprised that it was happening so soon
((if/when that ever happens, im super looking forward to watching you decorate your studio))
Girl i wish lol!! Hopefully not too far away!!
