Taigen x Mizu mentioned in the The Making of Netflix’s “Blue Eye Samurai”
Taken from the livestream organised by Gnomon
Jane Wu:
Next slide, Taigen...
Brian Kesinger:
Everyone's favourite samurai, uh, Taigen. Uh, so, he was designed a bit over the top. The, the, peak of male samurai, even down to the quite prodigious hair bun, which he doesn't have on screen for much. Uh, but, um, he is the visual opposite of Mizu, right, so it was fun to kinda let her design dictate what his design should be, and, you know, I think that, you know, especially for all you Taigen x Mizu fans out there, I think that might be one of the reasons why he's attracted to her. Um, or in my brain, he's attracted to her, uh, is because she is who she wants to be, and doesn't have to put on airs. Uh, and that's a lesson that he has to learn and he literally, I mean, it's on the nose but, he lets his hair down. And that's the start of his journey of discovery, um, which he needs to go. He's, he's got a lot of growing still left to do. Um—
Jane Wu:
I also think he has a, has a talent—he has like a... sword crush on her right, he has like a martial arts crush on her, yeah. Talent crush, yeah.
Brian Kesinger:
Right, yeah. Talent crush. Yes. Yes, for sure.

For context, Jane Wu is Blue Eye Samurai's supervising director and Producer, while Brian Kesinger is the lead character designer. Others presenting for this livestream were production designer Toby Wilson and art director Emil Mitev.

Guys do you think it was Bucky who gave Gale that aftershave? Bucky swears it's because it suits him but the truth is Bucky loves that scent so it was a selfish decision (also fuck off expensive!). Thats also a part of why he'a always in Buck's space - he needs to be close enough to smell it
Doesn't hurt that others (and Gale) like it

Disaster Twin Trainers
Kinda inspired by this ask but i went a little overboard lol. I will post Mikey and Raph's Trainer doodles when they are done (probably friday) (i was going to put all four in one post but they're taking forever and i don't really want to throw multiple days of work into one post.)
My thoughts on these two are that they're rival trainers with Leo being mainly Psychic type specifically to counter Donnie maining Poison types. Donnie's Shiny Zoroark is a fairly new addition (that Raph gave him as a tiny Zorua) to help counter Leo's team.
(i kinda have the thought that these two are battling each other like all the time, but as soon as someone else challenges one of them to a battle, they team up together and absolutely demolish them. most people have learned that you just leave these two to battle each other, otherwise you will wake up in the pokecenter with your entire wallet stolen and Dum-Dum written on your forehead in sharpie.)
