I feel like Spencer would def have a lisp and that would add on to the list of reasons why it’d be hard to take him srsly when introduced, making it more impactful when he actually becomes a real threat in the story ⭐️
thank you so much for this oh my god this is a blessing i never really was the type of person who was able to just like come up with ocs as a kid in my early art years and now im writing my own story and getting violently addicted to it but i have literally no idea how to visualize my characters so thank you so so so much for this i dont have the words to express how much this helped it all click in my brain
I love the agonists idea! Though I definitely like the girl more, probably because of nostalgia 😭 HEAD-CANNON: I feel like she would backstab him because she is a widow who probably doesn’t like being bossed around because she didn’t like how much freedom she used to have and he started to be really bossy when planning on how to get the book you know?!
As a person who’s mostly into character designing when it comes to art, it’s always so neat seeing how other people work around coming up with characters! And I feel you with the name generator part, I have so many of em saved on my phone just for that😂
omg brujo_celta I was so happy seeing him get mentioned, it's really nice seeing other artists mention his artwork and take inspiration from it, especially since he would get so much hate.
Your art and ocs inspire me so much. I feel like I've rewatched all your oc redesings like 5 times now and I've watched every one of your tiktoks. Everytime I even think about your characters I feel the need to draw some of my ocs or create new ones. Every upload from your channel brings me joy, thank you for creating such a great place for us here ❤
I love how similar our processes of designing characters are :D Down to "come here, old oc, you will be transported into a new universe now and you will like it"
This video is super helpful to get people thinking about character designs ^_^ And yeah I actually was listening to this in the background while trying to come up with a new character design lol..Did not find it yet but I will get there
The character model without an outfit is such a good idea i never thought of that i making one right now It also is something that works so well for my ocs because many of them either have tattoos or skin details like acne, freckles, vitiligo or (acne) scars
Ah! You're always such a big inspiration to me. This video was EXACTLY what I needed. Congratulations on 30k! I absolutely love the new designs you've made. And I love the outro! Your overall aesthetic and vibe is so fun and nostalgic.
I have an idea!! What if Alex's reaction to the talking bunny is to try to hunt and taxidermy meme? But like,, she fails miserably each time like willie e coyote or something... or tries to make her own 'meme' using random animal parts and it's kinda fucked up but meme falls in love with it and calls it his 'madame' (ma'am for short so they're like "meme and ma'am"!!)
It was so nice watching this as I come up with designs for a story idea I've had for awhile now, it helped me rethink a lot of ideas for my character designs and the story line as well so thank you for all the amazing tips! I love how you design characters just chefs kiss all aroung, love the amazing work and can't wait for more ^^
i love your videos SOOO much!! they always motivate me to do literally anything. I love your character design skills as well, all of your characters are so cool to look at :))
Thanks for the video, it's always very fun to get a peek into other artists' creative process. I really like Marta's design, she's got a snow queen vibe going which I think fits her personality. The huntress widow is also very cool, she looks unhinged and threatening in a right way for an antagonist, so I think you've achieved the goal!
I love love LOVE your channel you're literally my FAVOURITE art UA-camr I EAT UP all of your videos and can't wait until there's more to binge!!!!!! You literally inspire me so much and give me the motivation to actually draw which is SAYING SOMETHING (Also I love your new outro)
hey Emma, i've been watching you for a while now and OH EM GEE. girl you've gotten me out of a massive art slump and i've created this new oc who im in loooove with. tysm!!!
you've become one of my favorites to watch on youtube and youre videos have helped motivate me to keep trying and improving my art, thank you lots lol :]
Hi Emma! I haven’t started the video yet but I just wanted to say I love that you post videos about your character designs and ocs! It’s so interesting and also very inspiring and easy to watch as someone who also loves character designs and their ocs :) love your art and hope you have a great day whenever you see this!
Oh, unexpected. Russian girl - first design? It’s very cool because we have a lot of people with different nationalities living here. And it’s very nice to see a non-standard looking Russian girl ;3
As someone who sucks at making ocs bc i repeatedly draw the same thing, i appreciate this video. It inspires me sm :3 ALSO so happy u mentioned brujo i love his art so much and he inspires me sm with the development/design of his characters
Girl only now I thought about the time travel story.. (almost) Everyone probably worked/studied at the SAME college, just in different timezones. The book was always in the library and almost no one ever saw it or took it home...
you’re so talented! i love your vids ❤ also the shape language thing is SOOOOO true, i feel like i doesn’t apply to real people/humanoid characters a lot of the time 💀💀💀 i only ever see it applied to cartoon characters (like nintendo or cartoon network or whatever) and i’ve literally been thinking to myself if it’s necessary the past few days so thank you for speaking your truth‼️
Omg!! That’s me!!! This was such a good video!!!!! I always love listening to other artists process regarding character design, especially someone with an art style like yours which is quite different to mine. Some of your advice actually helped me a LOT with inspiring me for the current character design I’m working on :] thank you!!
aaaa ty for thsi ❤i’ve struggled a lot with character design and this really helped, i didn’t know i was gonna draw today but i did! i love your artstyle this inspired me so much ❤❤❤
i started watching you a few weeks ago right before my breakup and now that i’ve been broken up with my ex for two weeks I AM SO EXCITED TO WATCH THIS VIDEO AHHH. hopefully it’ll help my mood a little. your content is so good and i really appreciate the effort you put into everything. you’re a great artist and content creator. mwah. ❤
cool video ive been kinda struggling for awhile on creating characters or ocs so this will be great for also mending my art block cant wait for the next one
Funnily enough I have a character that I split in half into two characters. The first character I was able to design with ease while the other one kinda got left behind. I'm so glad I found this video to help me fully recognize that other character!
TY SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!! Believe it or not, since I started watching ur videos, I began designing more characters + redesigning some of my old ocs because I got inspiration from the way you redesign-design characters! (It's very entertaining tbh.) So, I see this video as a gift since I LOVE seeing you design characters! And I think I'm going to make a new character out of this...we'll see 😎. (Also, I LOVE all the characters you drew in the video! My fav was personally Marta, I love the aesthetic of figure skating as well so I enjoyed her quite a bit :).
dude at first when i started watching your videos I was like ehh I guess I could watch another, and then I watched all your videos. I'm an artist and I never found another artist that made videos that i really messed with but I really like your style and your videos. so i was super siked to see you upload
I really liked all of the characters that you created! It gave me some motivation on how to design my OCs in the future so, thanks for making this video! :D (Also the fact that the character from scratch's name is Marta is so funny to me because Marta is my IRL name xD)
looove spencer he was def my favorite ^_^ also have an inkling on the artist ur referring to w the riddler fanart LOL... great video though excited to see future uploads :]
I haven't even started the video yet but I just wanted to say that I'm a writer who can't draw to save a life. A lot of times I get to see how artists make their ocs, and it makes me super excited because I can only picture mine and try to piece together some words to make their features coherent. And idk It just gives me indescribable amounts of joy to see other people's characters 🥰
You took inspiration from Brujo?!!! I've been watching your videos and I loved each one of them because of how marvelously you draw and how creative your designs are but after knowing that you like Brujo's work too... You're definitely one of my fav youtube artists now!!! x3 (English is not my first language so I'm sorry for the grammatical mistakes ; _; Also I don't know why it took me too long to subscribe when your content is just so great ; w; Me and my forgetful mind)
Hey Emma! You're a huge inspiration for me since Im also an oc nerd that loves to write and I have to say that I looove Spencer and Alex, they remind me of one of my ocs (he is also an obssesive creepy incel). Also, I thought that maybe Spencer was taken to a different time period than Margot because time travels take you to a place where you are destined to do something or meet someone? Like, Spencer was bound to meet Alex to cause mayhem. Something like what happens to Zelda in TotK
this video inspired me to revamp one of my ocs and i'm SO glad i did!! he needed to be yassified a little more, bro was wearing gray turtlenecks and sweatpants and that just WASNT him. thank goodness. i'm very glad i saw this video, my boy is lookin so much more like himself ^w^
Omg i love watching your videos and it gives me inspo to start making my own videos. Also what if Marta was stuck with someone that was rather on the warm and cozy side and their color pallete consists of warm tones so its like an opposites attract kind of story
ok so, I LITERALLY HAD TO DOUBLE TAKE AT THE THUMBNAIL BEACUSE UR GINGER MALE OC LOOKS JS LIKE MINE OH MY!! glasses, haircut, even down to the outfit. i find it so so funny. I love ur artstyle sm.
stay until the end to see new outro 😎
if its anything like your intro, i cant wait! i love your intro its so interesting and unique and gives me nostalgia
Your new outro is really cute and very retro aesthetic
I can't wait to see the outro!
I honestly love your y2k/Frutiger aero style! I might be wrong, but that's how I feel whenever I see ur intro! + drawings. :).
the outro is so lovelyy!!! it really filled me with a sense of nostalgia and your music choice is chefs kiss
everyone stop breathing. emma posted.
im choking, please let me breathe!

For having such high quality videos and such amazing art, you don't get enough attention >:(
I love how Emma put a picture of Kooleen when she said that she wasn't going to say what's right and what's wrong- also, EMMA POSTED AGAIN!!!!!!
As a person who’s mostly into character designing when it comes to art, it’s always so neat seeing how other people work around coming up with characters! And I feel you with the name generator part, I have so many of em saved on my phone just for that😂
"Wont come until the climax" COUGHS
20:09 is it bad that the insole dude is literally just my type 😭😭😭 I LOVE HIM AHHHG
omg brujo_celta I was so happy seeing him get mentioned, it's really nice seeing other artists mention his artwork and take inspiration from it, especially since he would get so much hate.

I haven’t started illustrations, BUT I did write the entire plot of my story thanks to you. SO OBVIOUSLY YOURE REALLY GOOD AT THIS UA-cam THING.
Your character designs are some of the best, so I’m so glad that you’re making a video about this and I’m so glad it’s getting a lot of views!:)
When you were making the riddler inspired character I could smell the inspiration, “ifykyk” I regret to inform I know LMAO
I don't wanna expose myself but I feel like she's talking ab lacryboy right??? Or am I just dirty-minded 💀
@@rennyturing yeah 💀
Riddler fan art from Larcyboy?
