My only issue is that the hands look a bit masculine and perhaps finger less gloves would benefit it. But I want Orchids idea to have a real chance too. Ill talk to her about giving a drawing.

My original design was a goodie with fur ends and uneven length of sleeves (to highlight unorthodox and unique) but I like Lonusuke's are imagining better.

I completely agree that the hands need more refining and to look more feminie like. I also think extending the sleeves and making them fingerless gloves would make the design more interesting. I think what I have now is very basic and it's something i'd use as an under sketch when i add in additional details.

Well whatever works. When I drew her, I didn't realize her hair was so typical. So if you want to modify her hair a bit, that would be fine.

I especially didn't design her with the current forum colors. Was going for white, gray, black, and red colors.

... being self-taught really sucks at times . I don't even know the name of each muscles you've mentioned because I skipped knowing them ...

Anyways , I intended to avoid doing any sort of favor sketches simply because I'm doing one-shots as a part-time work (one or two every month) & I need to keep that workflow flowing .

So as to not be inconsiderate & thoughtless , I'll try to do so at my utmost best (I hardly make these kinds of things due to the nature of my ways in mastering art) whenever I had the time , but don't hold me on that promise though as I also had another one that I didn't get to it for months ...

EDIT : It seems that you've spotted one of the flaws on your own , so good one . If you ask me what made your anatomy looked wonky , it has something to do with the execution of it done with foreshortening & at a  slightly dynamic angle , particularly how it doesn't scale & placed right .

Ill draw my version just in case anyone is curious. But it won't look as good as others.

I'm going to be honest. The only thing that was done free hand by me was the possible logos and coloring.


Everything else I mostly traced. such as hoodie, pants, even tried to emulate Lumarias style. After that, Lumaria gave me some help ideas. So one of the biggest changes was to make her design asymmetrical. So I Gave her different bangs, and turned her pants into half-shorts, half-pants. And as last minute I gave her a side mini pack.

Logos are just something I do for fun. I'm trying to get into graphic designs for logos. But I still not good at free hand.  They look more comic book like. I ended up disguising it my making it look intentional.

Edit: OK I'm crazy nervous. The camera and the fact I drew it on pen makes it look better than what it looks like in real life. But please be relentless as possible.

i didn't have a chance to say anything last night.

Yeah you made some changes last time i saw it. I think it look great. Its an interesting design. i personally think it looks some-what like my style.

My only nitpick about it is that it might have too much blue. But, i can't find any other place that could have other colors. Do you want the mascot to have two different colors? One green and one yellow?

EDIT: When i look at the logo designs you made, it sort of reminds me of those movies/games where they use drawings on notebook paper. I guess what people would call "hipster" now. But based on what you have now, its pretty nice. Of course, all you drew was a head and clothes. so you played it pretty safe. And it also maybe due to being sideways.

I was thinking either green eyes or yellow eyes. But now that you said it, mix of both would be great. One green, one yellow.

Your right about the blue though. I originally wanted colors from Tron.

Looking back, you didn't give any shoes. Did you plan on giving her shoes or did you just feel like the mascot will be just the top half?

Also, i see you have vizor and headphones. it might be too much headgear for this option. i think its more beneficial to either have headphones.

Wish i could combine it all for you, but right now i dont have anything to draw on. Been so busy.

I was hoping footwear would not be brought up. I'm horrible at drawing shoes and didn't find a good choice that matched the overall style.

You make a good point about the vizor and headphones. That night be one too any accessories. But that's about it.

My attempt at mascot.

Spoiler (hover to show)

The general idea & symbolisms I considered why I created the mascot:
• Simplicity. I want something people could easily remember. Not something overly designed.
• Student Uniform. Just like a student, we learn through hard work. Symbolizes training and wisdom.
• Color. Purple, creativity & MM's theme color. White, purity/mental clarity (black may look cool but it's just dark even paired with purple). Red Rose (the hair). Symbolizes respect and passion.
• Artist Pallet Hair Clip. Artistry.


She just wears flip-flops.... Just kidding. It's white socks + shiny leather loafers.
There should be a logo on the uniform but we currently don't have any yet.

I love how it fits with the colors of the forum. It is very nice. I think the school uniform is a great idea. What program did you use to draw it?


EDIT: There sure are a lot of options.

I used Photoshop.

Yeah, School uniform is easy to remember, often related to anime as well.
