Thinking of changing my approach to this as I step outside of my comfort zone a bit designing these guys. I fear they’ll only get more complicated

First of all, thanks to comments on my previous posts, I will format these guys via speedpaint videos to show that no AI goes into the creation of these (just a lot of fine tuning proportions and all that mess that comes with.) Lemme know if this helps.

Second, before fully rendering these guys, I figured it‘d be more meaningful to make this more community-centered by getting feedback from you guys. I figured it’s the chance for people of the type I’m representing in these sketches to weigh in on what design choices they would like to see in the representative of their own type. (That includes Balzac whom I am not against reworking). Literally anything you guys would legitimately consider will improve the overall design if you think what I’ve come up with doesn’t completely capture the idea of the profile, by all means throw it at me with full force!

This guy ain’t finished yet, but I’m posting the flat color here anyway so I can be held against my will for ransom to finish him in case I forget. He needs can shading and a backdrop, but my uncreative ass has gotten so far as “make all the Gamma Quadra yellow” at best. Advice on alterations or additions would be greatly appreciated! For now, I shall leave this SEE mascot here.

Current color palette ideas for upcoming design ideas:

LIE - Bold Amber
ESI - Soft yellow/marigold

IEI - Rosey peach
SLE - Deep crimson
LSI - Classic burgundy
EIE - Vanity red????

SLI - Forest hues

Got bored and decided to reignite a previous art hobby of mine, and with a background in graphic design I tried to throw my hand back into character design. So to the community, I present thee all with my imagining on a chibi “mascot” for the ILI sociotype.

*Edit to add: No, this is not AI. It’s the fifth attempt to redraw over 4 different rough drafts, with this being the first concept from Ibis Paint. Im not proud of it, which is why I hauled ass over to Procreate where I kept working and redoing until this fuckin blob gave shape to something I thought was decent enough without going anal about filling in every line. I’m trying to keep details simple so as to not make something visually overwhelming, and the rest of the 15 types I will not put out until I can ensure a level of quality that meets my standards, and that requires me to take time for em.)

Like, I honestly can’t tell you why out of all things, after recovering the shock of what happened when the airbag deployed to when the EMS showed up, I wasn’t stressed out in the slightest, I just calmly went “how injured am I? Not at all? Aight bet, lemme get a cute photo real quick, my friends are gonna eat ts up”

So in case you’re wondering if SSRIs work, this post is your neon sign saying YES THEY ABSOLUTELY DO 🙃
