Mr. Jorge Gutierrez is an inspiration, a trailblazer, a singularly visionary artist with an instantly recognizable style and I love him and admire him so much. But the family of the main character (girl on the left) in his new Netflix show “Maya y los tres” (”Maya and the Three” in English) looks like this:
and one of my special personal character design least favorite things is this god dang
HUGE DAD tiny dainty mom and look-alike dainty daughter animated family arrangement
and I am at my limit, sir. Mr. Gutierrez I love you and I’m going to watch this show but you are on thin ice my man
Hiccup isn’t a daughter but How To Train Your Dragon did this exact same thing and I was just as disappointed with that too. So he’s also invited to this post.
One day someone will do an animated family where the mom is huge and beefy and the dad is small and delicate, or the courageous daughter main character takes after Beef Dad much more than she takes after Dainty Mom, or some other kind of subversion, and on that day I will be healed. But today is not that day.

Just replayed the original Sly Cooper trilogy and I really wanted to "redesign" some of the characters.
Mostly I just added more clothes, even as a kid I thought this level of anthro requires pants...

I am absolutely stunned that I’ve not seen this piece of info about Miyo Sato talking about hot Reigen:
The tobacco smoker is a side of Reigen that Mob doesn’t get to see. The way he lights his cigarette is pretty slick.
Right up until he meets up with Mob, the entire sequence is in monochrome. In order to keep the sequence from getting too dull, I wanted to make the smoking cut a little sexier. I even went around asking the lady staff here at BONES what they thought the hottest way to light a cigarette is (Laughs). So I’m really glad to hear that the Reigen fans liked that.

Character Design of Daeron
(the conductor has turned around to face his audience)
Although he’s described as the best musician in Middle Earth, it doesn’t really specify his true strengths (singing? harping? rap battles?), so I decided to freestyle it and gave him a minimalistic design with a calm colour palette suited for a loremaster and composer rather than a performer.
Speaking of performers, Daeron’s dress is designed to be strongly contrasted against Maglor. While Maglor’s attire has elaborate colour and curve design with fairly simple jewellery, Daeron’s overall dress is more linear, simple and accented on the accessories (I imagine he has a keen eye for details). To acknowledge his invention of the runes, many of his design elements are blocky with sharp edges mingled with smoother curves.
