I cant believe i nailed the 2 tones without even knowing it. My character Ebb is a mascot, a online persona and a character that just seems to fit it all for me, really interesting!
I seriously have no idea who at Kellogg’s approved those creepy designs for the Rice Krispies mascots, or why that person hasn’t been fired/demoted yet. Their faces just completely turn me off buying anything Rice Krispies-related. 😬
They look even worse in Australia, where they're exactly the kind of glurgy, cutesy designs Brookes advised against in his video about "cute" characters.
Sometimes mascots take a while to work out, Pikachu was totally accidental and mostly a result of poor communication between the game devs and the anime creators, he wasn't even meant to say his name, but by the time the developers found out a lot of the anime had been made and it was too late to change.
It wasn't even going to be the mascot of the franchise, Clefairy was going to be Ash's first pokemon, but so many people liked Pikachu that they changed it I personally prefer Clefairy (and lots of other pokemon) over Pikachu
Im fairly sure that Japan passed a law recently that forced them to limit the amount of mascots since too many were being made and I find that neat (take this with a chunk of salt though, i dont quite remember)
I've wanted to make a proper mascot for some time now, as opposed to the red stick figure I use now. Never been sure how I want to represent myself/my content though.
I definitely need a mascot through I tend to use Avery, the aviator I use for my profile icon. Those trading cards are so cool. How do you go about producing trading cards of your own?
Love your stuff but I’m currently having a hard time making drawing a daily habit any quick tips you can (I know you’ve probably already made a video on this)
Yeah, I think I've made an accidental mascot once or twice... The first I guess is in the picture to the left of this post, and the current one I've made seems to be something a lot of people who've seen it seem to like, and I'm not sure why. All I did was think "What if I take a gynoid-esque body, give it a spherical head, place a couple of cat ear-like antennae on it and give it a face that is literally a spark plug with eye lashes?". Yeah, out of the blue design and individual interests are weird :\ Well... at least it ain't a Melon Bear...
Okay guys, let’s take a vote here. When Brookes gets 1 million subs, he has to dance outside the nearest deli store dressed as the Wanderlumin. XD Likes=how many votes
Oosh, i pity the kid that even walked into a kumon (>_
Thanks for the pity
Ikr
I took Kumon for over five years back in elementary. That face is very accurate to how I feel about that time.
*Trips over feet*
"Now that's good character design."
(Relatable if I'm being honest)
i thought that i was the only one
the kumon thing is... uh... something
permanent scars on my psyche

BOLD AND BRASH!
When I first saw the wanderlumin I was instantly intrigued. I remember binging all you videos in my grandparents kitchen

I'd never quite try to take away someone's livelihood for the quality of an illustration, but yeah, definitely in need of some fixes :)
Thank you, I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has noticed their... off-putting design recently.
At least Toucan of Fruitloops is a way better mascot! Even Tony the Tiger!
Too Damn Curly toucan sam is not safe anymore :(

Ummmm... Anyone notice that at 0:27 right next to Smokey is Lefty cheering while there's a raging fire in the background... O.o
Only you can prevent meme fires

Your videos are getting better! Keep going!
I want to write a folksy whimsy story!!

That peeling is so satisfying...
Seems that my fursona is my mascot. And i'm really proud of it. ^^
High fives for relatability 😄
I had to pause this 13 seconds in to say I have the same art table, nice!
Great video Ben!!
(I actually don’t know why everyone’s calling you Ben, but this IS is actually a great video)
I dont either but its fun i dont mind it- thanks!
Hello Brookes. Nice Video! May I ask the name of the book you show at 1:06 ? Thanks :)
Also, Brookes, are you ever going to get a mascot suit of your main character purple dude, Ben?
Why is everyone saying Ben? No, no plans to sign spin outside a deli dressed as the Wanderlumin 😂
Is it because of my black sweater... that tracks
ROTFL 😂🤣 When you get 1 million subscribers tho....

Dang, at least at Sylvan our logo looks like a checkmark or smiley face :)
Please don’t say I’m the only one that laughed at
“Make them feel like they’re friends with these little gremlins that want to sell them sugar”
Mine is Pawsley the Wildcat

What was the book at 1:03 ? couldn't find it online :/
Might be long out of print, I grabbed it in 2010 I believe
What about the amizon logo
You mean the dystopian box drones on their way to our homes, smiling all the way
XD, that video was funny, grats Brookes!
Your baby boy Tommy has entered the chat
I don't know Ben, what's the deal with airplane food?
WHO BEN
I've thought a little about designing a Mascot, but I don't have a reason to make one. Haha, but in the future I might.
Does every artist have an artwork by squidward?
Is that what I’m missing in my art life?
Everyone in the world should have a copy of Bold and Brash, it's a masterpiece after all
Everyone take a look at my channel’s mascot.
Lots to learn from this one.
Yep. Take notes.
I love your videos👍

Every time I watch a video with Hollow Knight stuff in the background I instantly notice it
Hmmm. I have my pokesona as mascot but im afraid of how far i get before pokemon looms over me
I neeeed your help
I had a Hollow Knight video on .25x and the start slowed down scared me
this is officially a boss rush channel now
Brookes Eggleston - Character Design Forge I’m sure that’d be just as entertaining.
Honestly, one of the worst mascots I've ever seen is The Burger King, i don't want to eat a burger when I see him, I want a restraining order
Get that king away from me!!
I came here for Chii-tan
I am satisfied
KI TOP
What kind of mascots do you make? Sophia,
Hmm?
@@CharacterDesignForge what kind of mascots do you have? Sophia,
@@paulamelo9699 I dont understand the question either time, can you elaborate
Did you ship them or sold them? Sophia,
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed how... *horribly* off Snap, Crackle & Pop look in the newest design. Lol
Yeah they were... fine? Charming before?
I hate Kumon.
