i want to imagine that belka and strelka used to believe that the space colony ark was a myth because they weren't around before the cover-up and then had a bit of a freak-out when eggman fired the eclipse cannon and proved it was real
You ever think that these bootleg mascots are just these people trying to create their own Sonic OC’s and they’re just super embarrassed about it so they used it as a mascot?
Now that you’ve redesigned these knacky knockoffs, it’s time to face the biggest and baddest bootleg of them all... Those early western drawings of sonic when he’s in a ball but you can see his face
Belka and Strelka are definitely my favorites out of all your bootleg redesigns. I love the aesthetic that you went for. Looks like I’ve got some fan art to make.
@@Milomannz different cultures have different opinions on what sounds feminine and what doesnt. in english we consider names that end with -a to be feminine, but russian doesnt share the same preconceptions. for example, the name sasha. its typically feminine in english speaking countries, but typically masculine in slavic countries. strelka and belka are presumably the same.
@@hunterfunnyguy I'm slavic and Belka is a "female word" around here. I'm not sure if it's really a name because it means plank, but I thought it could sound rather feminine for a slavic word.

11:19 Also one of another iconic character with the teal and yellow combo is Rosalina and Luma. And funny enough she's from space too lol. Although she doesn't use yellow in her own design apart from maybe her wand. He and Luma are paired up a lot so they are like a duo.
Hmmm...how about this: -KB could be a hired mercenary for Eggman and Slickus/possible rival for Rebound. -Maulty could be Rebound and HBO’s boss (what with Rebound originally being a food retail mascot, maybe he works in the kitchen and soccer is just a side-career) or maybe their adopted father (We need more mixed families in the Sonic universe) -And the space twins could be the boys best friends or close allies. Say their planet (Thought about them maybe being aliens) gets attacked/mixed up in one of the Eggman theme parks, the boys save the planet and they decide to help them stop Eggman’s schemes. Hey, it’s not great, but it’s something.
Sonic after seeing Belka's old photo: Sonic:...You're trans? Belka: Yep. Sonic: Can I bring my friends to be your allies in the next pride parade? Belka: Sure

I think that not only are they siblings, but Belka and Strelka could be twins! Fraternal twins obviously because they have different color placement, but something about them makes me go "oh, twins!"
i think this batch of redesigns was my favorite yet, tho the standout for me is def Strelka and Belka (YAY TRANS REP!). the y2k clear plastic look (god i miss early 2000s fashion), the color schemes, the space motif, THE FACT THAT THEIR HEADS ARE STAR SHAPED its all so great! You really did that!
Headcanons for Sonic(-style) designs: Rebound is the main character of the spinoff game where these characters can be found. Meanwhile, Slick (Slickus) the Shrew is the main villain. Obee is Rebound's little brother and an NPC seen occasionally in the game. Maulty Manx is a friendly NPC who provides food for Rebound to heal himself with. Killer Bee is a (recurring?) boss who Slick hired to deal with Rebound. Strelka and Belka the Dogs are two more player characters, or at least NPC allies. And all throughout, it's made clear that this game takes place in the same universe as the canon Sonic games.
You did an awesome job on all of them! I especially liked the last pair - the color schemes work really well, and the background info is nice! Quick note on Russian, though - it's one of those languages that gives its nouns a grammatical gender. So, the nouns themselves can be divided into masculine, feminine, or neuter category (basically, you can replace a noun with a 'he', 'she', or 'it' among other things). Based on that, feminine nouns can give feminine names for animals. Meaning of a word may, but doesn't have to play, into a noun's gender, and a grammatical gender is something that I think will always be lost upon translating into a language that doesn't do that at all. Just thought I'd put it in here so you'd know.
Yeah, that first one is definitely firework packaging. Although the legality of mortar shells depends entirely on state legislation since they're just gunpowder charges and not high explosives.
@Katie Katt hi trans man here- how the heck is a TRANS WOMAN being transphobic to a character that she said "yes, I love this!" to? You're beyond stretching.
The killer bee and the cute chef cat would make for great canon characters. I also really like belka and strelka, but I think if the plastic parts on their outfits were pink or orange (taken from the cream looking girl on the original design) it wouldve made it even better
CHARACTER- IDEA! : STRELKA AND BELKA Both are part of a TV show that Cream watch, she like it so much that her mom buy her / make her the costume of one of her favorite character
8:15 In Cream's dev., Cream is a cat and sega has see a problem if she can fly but cat doesn't fly and they change to a rabbit with long ears to fly like "DUMBO".
Your redesigns are just so good. But I have a quick question if that’s ok with you. How do you color something so it looks clear and see through like at 11:40 ? I’m an “artist-in-Training” you could say and making clearings like colored windows and stuff is something that has been bothering me a lot . Any tips or something?
After the part with the goggles for Killer Bee I couldn't hear anything but Buck Bumble for the next 12 hours straight and it still haunts me, thank you
"So basically they have the same color palette as each other, just swapped!" Oh! Just like Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer from CATS! Also I loved the Sonic Colors DS music playing during Strelka and Belka's redesign! Also we love that Belka is trans. We support him.
10:30 okay that look makes me think off the convept art for sailor moon... it's weird; also the skirts might have been slightly longer, not sure. Point is they have that retro space look.

The name is masculine, but if it's used for mentioning the country Kuba (Cuba), it's feminine.
If we have a plank (Belka), then it's feminine. But if that's some guys name, then it will be masculine.
Also our names Wiktor(Victor). It can be shortened to Wiki, which is both masculine and feminine (From Wiktoria)
The third one is a bit off the path (sorry I love your name), but I hope you understand my point of view.
We got a bug, a chef, and twins
Space twins, to be more specific (and one of them is trans).

Your redesigns are just so good.
But I have a quick question if that’s ok with you.
How do you color something so it looks clear and see through like at 11:40 ?
I’m an “artist-in-Training” you could say and making clearings like colored windows and stuff is something that has been bothering me a lot .
Any tips or something?
Transparency is a feature on most digital art programs.
You basically make a new layer and find the opacity adjuster and lower it. If it’s still not enough you can lower it.
7:37 What this music from the Maulty segment? I like the sound of it and it's tickling my brain.
"I looked up a picture of a real killer bee"
How.

After the part with the goggles for Killer Bee I couldn't hear anything but Buck Bumble for the next 12 hours straight and it still haunts me, thank you
8:10 It looks like one of thos party bags you buy with the presents in them or something
"So basically they have the same color palette as each other, just swapped!" Oh! Just like Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer from CATS!
