My color guys redesigns :]
For about 8 years now, i got ocs that are kinda like personifications of colors, the primary colors ones (Douglas - blue, Robin - red, Flavian - yellow) being some of the oldest ones. And pretty frequently I end up redesigning the characters. It's pretty much just a playground for character design fun. And it's these guys' turns on the redesign wheel!
They kinda got a shared theme, which is concept - theory - practice, or also heart - brain - body. In this case Robin being concept, so he’s poet-like/ a hopeless romantic, Douglas is theory, so he’s more studious and grounded looking, and Flavian is practice, so he’s more hands on, kinda engineer-like/ready to work on something.
Admitedly, Douglas doesn’t fully show that part of his theme, but also it’s kinda hard to do that without changing a lot about him and taking away the idea that he is always dressed in a cozy way, he’s always comfortable, since they also embody other aspects of their colors, not just this theme. So might come back to him, but I’m happy for now.
As for Robin, he got the biggest glow up, I think. He never even…had much of a personality before I went more on the poet/imaginative/impulsive/hopeless romantic route. I also tried to make them all reflect their shapes better, which helped him a lot.
And Flavian just needed a few tweaks, I already liked his design quite a bit, just needed some theming. I did make him a bit more skinny and with wider shoulders, but that gets a bit obscured by his outfit.
