- Getting stumped on a character design? Looking for ways to enhance your art? I’m redrawing your characters in a method we can ALL learn from, through the 3 step process of Diagnosis, Drawover, and MUTATION- and maybe… getting stumped along the way myself.

Was really not expecting to see Morgan show up in one of these, really honored to get some feedback!
Im so glad!
great green screen
This is such a cool series! I plan on taking your character design course during the summer, but this feels like a nice prelude to it ^^
Excited to see the next one in the series!
Awesome, looking forward to having you!
Woah, your production quality went up on this one. It looks very good.
Thanks! 😃
I'm liking this format, it seems like a good sustainable source to draw content from. No puns intended.
The lesson with the badger was really helpful, I normally just do flat colors because I don't fully understand shading. Thanks Brookes!
THANK YOU SO MUCH BROOKES!!!!!!!
You are so welcome!
This is a really cool series! I love seeing your thought process when approaching other people's characters. I hope these get better engagement and you continue to do these, it's super helpful!
I hope so too!
Even though my character; Bellatrix Orion, didn't make it in this video, it was nice to see you did with the others and I really learned a lot from your redesigns of them.
Thanks Brookes.
Fantastic redesigns.
‘I’m on a beach somewhere. It’s nice.’ 😂 These were great to see Brookes, thanks for continuing this series in spite of the lack of engagement on the last one 💯❤️ EVERYONE WATCH THESE THEYRE GREAT *wills it to be so *
This is a really fun series. I hope it gets the needed traction to continue.
Always fun to see redraws/redesigns, and I especially appreciated the quick lesson on light/shading.
I think the IPN logo is supposed to resemble the red white and yellow plugs you see on certain devices. Would’ve been cool to keep that
That would have been cool, not sure if it was the intent of the original artist though!
It's really great seeing the thought process behind the character redesigns and i like how you try to keep the original intend intact at first before doing your own take. These videos are super valuable for learning and i appreciate that you create them!
Also your humour never fails to make me smile.
Thank you so much Viktor!
I really love this series! It's so cool seing amazing artists and their characters and the changes/interpretations you make are definitely helpful and inspiring. :)
Glad you enjoy it!
These redesigns always have something interesting to teach about simplicity or readability I may not have thought of previously. Good work! And what a creative group of fans you have. These characters are always wonderful to see.
I love this series and echoing comments that love the greenscreen, very fun!
S/o to Sal theyre the goat and I love seeing your take on their deskgn sm!!
UGH watching these videos is always inspiring
This is a fantastic series :) It's so cool to see the variety of characters on display and the different solutions for making them read more clearly. It's a little unfortunate that you were flooded with characters from people, especially because it makes me feel a little bad about wanting to send a character your way too, but I think it also speaks to the huge level of trust your community has in you to give good feedback.
Another Brookes video, another good day.
Can't wait to get to work with this new found knowledge. Thanks so much for the advice, Brookes. You're the man!
I'm really digging this series! I love seeing all these different designs and styles, and your commentary gives me so many helpful pointers and reminders to apply to my own work. Thanks for everything you provide us, Brookes!

This series has given me some invaluable advice and has a really fun vibe to it! The time and effort put in can't be commended enough.
All the art in this is genuinely really cool! Ya'll have some great ideas and really solid art technique. I love this series for thst reason of getting inspired by everyone's art and thinking more about what can be improved about a design.
Ya'll are awesome.
The vibe I get from Studio Gillian's Mike design is an award show host wearing a suit or tuxedo, now THAT could be a good angle for that design.
Interesting yeah!
Wow, I love this series, and your channel is great!
man your vids always cheer me up and i love to see your takes on character design in practice! thank you for the inspiration and positivity you very cool and funky dude 🙏🙏
My pleasure!
This is so good. So much effort in these videos!! All of your takes were really cool along with the original character designs. Probably my favorite series so far. I love seeing alternate designs.
AND I EMERGE FROM THE ASHES
Honestly half of my watches are under the mercy of the reccomendations but thank goodness I found this channel again, I do really enjoy the ideas you added to those characters!
… Although I don’t know if the video is gonna get anymore likes from where I am-
Sincerely appreciate you coming back! There’s another in this series from a Month back !
Oh okay its really cool and helpful.
Glad you think so!
Par for the course with your videos, I learned a lot! Thanks Brookes!
And why yes of course it was difficult to iterate on Sal's design that's because their designs are flawless :P (I'm kidding but only halfway, love you Sal your stuff is very cool)
You're 100% right!
This channel is way too underrated These videos are always enjoyable to watch keep up the great work!
Digging these redraw videos!
Thanks! Make sure to support them, cant make more if no one watches!
I haven't watched this channel for some time now, and man I think I regret missing out💀
Love your video ... I am trying to become a 2d animator .. but not traditional 2d animation 😅.. but rigged animation.. and trying to make my own character .. i really have no creativity when it comes to designing anything...
Happy new year. I love your videos
I love this series. I'm currently designing a character and struggling lol especially with a colour palette. These videos have been really helpful.
I'm so glad!
Super cool series. Hope to seem more!
Thanks, there’s 3 installments for now!
This is such a nice series! It's a nice reminder to push my shapes more. Love to see more!
Thanks! Best way to make more happen is to support it and share it!
I think I am not good at lighting. I try putting shadow and light onto the characters. Only use Pencil and paper though, so it is all final.
This has been pretty amazing to watch. I feel like i learn something from each (also the edtings and jokes were pretty great in this episode - I watched it while drawing!) 👍
Glad to hear it!
These are great! Loving this series
i like seeing these edits and "mutations". i submitted one of my own characters, but take your time. i can imagine that there are near infinite submissions :)
Looking good, Brookes! Happy New Year!
Sweeet this is such a fun idea I have TONS of characters i would love you to redesign!! I cant wait to build up my channel so i can collaborate with you !
44 seconds ago, let's gooo
Oh my gosh so relatable i have to redraw drake the wolf or Jake i might change the name for my animated series called petzootes and i was like his teeth is horrible i had to take some inspiration because it was to horrible then i had to deal with what his hands will be like next oh god this that was really annoying his finale design is almost here
Engagement engagement engagement. But thank you for this!
loved the video c:
good video :D
I love this series! (Is that how you spell series? I don't know.)
I think. Probably......idk English is dumb
Yup, that’s how you spell it!
@@Kate_rynDraws Rolled the dice and won. Nice.
@@tridek1949 XD
I realized I submitted my character Jozlyn some time ago and forgot to comment, oops
I Really Want To Make My Own Cartoon Show Animated Series One Day But I Don’t Know Where To Get Started
this video was a really fun and educational experience, but i have a question, do we have to resubmit our designs to the form for the next video?
Nope! (In fact please dont, would make things harder 😜)
I have completed the form for help with redesigning my character Aspen the reindeer. Hope you can squeeze it into one of your future redesigning characters videos. 😄😀
Do you accept renders of 3d models for submissions? I'm wanting to work on my character designs, but I'm a 3d modeler, not a drawer.
I mean I am a 3D artist so something comprehensive as a 2D image I could draw over, I likely wouldnt remodel something myself though- already spending a lot of time on these and it’s likely outside of the interest of most people watching.
Sent a design form! Hope you can help me :)
Why do so many cartoon animal characters have some article of clothing?
🤷♂️ from a design perspective, it helps break up the proportions, and adds a little extra identity and personality. But practically, can’t help you there
Looking forward to submitting a character
Hey, I'm sorry this might sound really weird so please don't take this the wrong way ... but is there some way to get feedback and critique that isn't public? I've checked out the patreon options and I was wondering because after a decade-long slump, I don't exactly have a perfect portfolio to show right off that bat but I do have a TON of development things (various drawings/notes etc, it's just that I'm only just getting back into drawing my original characters regularly again) I'd love to get an opinion on (without spoiling all my story online before it's finished - it's very precious to me as I actually made the main character 22 years ago!!) ... more like a paid tutor/mentor sort of deal? Again I know, I probably should have said this in an email, but maybe there are other people who are wondering the same thing. I apologise if this is inappropriate.
Absolutely optional to have it shown to anyone else at all!
And yes, i have mentoring calls available on my site as well 🙂
@@CharacterDesignForge Thank you for your reply! Is it okay to email you to ask more about them?
@@klg9549 Sure, although most of the information should be on the shop site!
Seeing other peoples are in your style sits somewhere in the pleasing, but also uncanny valley. Also this video just doesn't seem long enough, getting more in depth analysis about what you did with each character seems more fitting. Instead of watching such a short speed draw, its hard to tell what do did without pausing the video.
Cant tell if this is supposed to be a positive or negative comment, which is defeating, but there are so many factors regarding audience retention that I am already facing an uphill battle with, let alone making the videos longer.
As it is, this video took about 50 hours of work to put together and it’s performing very poorly. Perhaps because my art is so uncanny valley! 🙂
@@CharacterDesignForge I am so sorry, it's moreso criticism, I don't mean to be negative. I'm sorry that it's not doing well, I do generally like the concept, I love your content, it sucks that this isn't doing well. I don't want to be a reason you stop making videos
@@CharacterDesignForge your art style isn'tz it might just be the design switch for some of these that make them uncanny for me. but tbh my opinion doesn't matter if other people love your art. there will always be people that do not enjoy your art.
@@Twentynyne my takes are inherently going to be more technically proficient, because of higher experience, but aren't going to have the same motive, context, and reasoning as the original artist- they should theoretically be able to make something better because the characters are their baby. But if it's just that you don't like my work, that's fine- I just don't know that I'll be changing it in response anytime soon just because.
A bit of advice for the person who submitted the alien:
The grey color of the hair made me think at first that your character was in her senior years, even if it has a green tinge to it. Maybe consider another color that isn't specifically grey (or white) since when somebody has that hair color you can tell that they're older. A different shade of green could be all you need
How would you suggest I draw younger characters when my artstyle has characters with pretty round, sort of cal-artsy like faces even when they’re adults?
I just now came across this video. Would you consider looking at my OC, even after all this time?
The patreon option continues to be available. The performance of these videos vs the free labor involved makes the possibility of the series continuing uncertain.
I tried to submit the link of my oc from twitter but It doesn't work and i cant figure out how to do it oml💀
You mean to copy and paste a link?
@@CharacterDesignForge i think i did it,not sure but yeah lol
*_It took me too many redraws of my main character just because of the body and THE HAIR._*
*_And I might do the same for the other characters too._*
*_But I'm on high hiatus and very busy, so no new arts + music tracks from me because of it. Although I CAN say I'm secretly experimenting and improving... in a different way._*
I'd like to get my bad designs -roasted- reviewed by a pro too someday, but I can tell you are already overwhelmed in the lottery section and I'm not very interested in the backpack stuff.
Eh, I'll figure it out what I'm doing right/wrong at some point :) cool vid.
Sorry the backpacks arent cooler, let me know any feedback on what would make them more appealing!
@@CharacterDesignForge It's not the stuff that's the problem, I just wouldn't know what to do with it. Not enough room where I live. Apologies if it sounded like I was insulting your products/designs :(
@@markguyton2868 no worries! I just try as always to offer something worthwhile and would love for the Backpacks to do better.
