Create a character with the Aesthetic / Moodboard Above

I'm so sorry I love these thread so much lmao

What do you mean by "Aesthetic"?

~Aesthetic is the ASMR of the eyes~

Though I'm sure a lot of you know, I figured I'd explain just in case! Well to over-simplify, in this game you will be posting a series of images (Or one image) that you consider aesthetically pleasing. This can be anything from a simple theme to just a pretty picture. You will be making characters based on the colour scheme, contents and overall feel of the images. Be sure to include as much of the aesthetic as possible into the design.

[RANDOM MOODBOARD GENERATOR]

 

Preparing before posting:

Gather images or find one image that you like. It must be an aesthetic image or moodboard. If an image of a character is provided, it must have an aesthetic to it and not with the intention of ripping the character off. You may also not use pre-existing moodboards of characters and their outfits as it may yield a character ripoff. If you have one image, link to it on here. If you have multiple and don't want to add multiple links to the site you can:

                       * Make a character on TH with these aesthetic images (Try to credit)

                       * Pin them to their own pintrest board

                       * Make a folder in Sta.sh on deviantart

                      * Find a better way and tell me about it LOL


Word Key:

Read if you want to specify species or gender.

Human: What we are hopefully

Human-like: Vampires, Demons, Witches, Mermaids, Angels etc.

Humanoid: Furry/Anthro or Human or Human-like

Feral: Animal that walks on four legs. Please have an alternative since this is a humanoid preference thread ;;

Anthro / Furry: Specifically referring to anthropomorphic / humanoid animals.

Banned words: Racist terminology, homophobic or transphobic terminology including "Femboy", "Lolita", or "Shouta" (when referring to the character, Clothing is fine). 

Rules:

  • You have two weeks to complete, one month with a good reason. 
  • Please do not make spin-off threads of my games. 
  • DO NOT delete or remove claims. If you post, you're locking in your claim. Backing out will land you on the banned list.
  • {NEW} Solid colour outfits, minimalist designs and simple accessories are NOT acceptable. Use every part of the aesthetic that you can, including the contents of the images. Make the character as detailed in design as you can.
  • You may specify Gender and species preference but try to keep things open. This is about designing by aesthetic ;; 
  • You may gift your character however please do not sell or trade without permission of the designers.
  • {NEW} Do not use moodboards of characters or existing designs as it may result in character ripoffs. If you post a moodboard with an image containing an existing character, please do not emulate or rip off the character.
  • DO NOT POST SENSITIVE IMAGES OR TOPICS. If you do link to them, please have a trigger warning and an alternative. If it can't be in a kids show, it needs a warning. These are including but not exclusive to: Alcohol, blood, gore, medical items, death, distressing images. All images must be G rated-- at most PG. Everyone will be given one warning.
  • Please wait two claims before you claim again! Please do not take longer than 30 minutes to post your aesthetic image / moodboard.
  • Humanoids are preference on this thread (Based on participants) If you would like a feral character, please be open to kemonomimis or alternatives <3
  • Please edit your post with your finished work -- This is REALLY important as it helps me moderate quality and see that you've finished. Do not claim another before doing so. (This may become a bannable offense if it happens often ;;;;;)
  • The design must be a fullbody image. PUT EFFORT PLEASE, trad should be scanned, no solid colour outfits and no low-qual doodles. DO NOT COPY OTHER PEOPLE'S OCs OR CSs OR TRACE. On the flip side Don't be rude about people's skills or art style or what you receive. I won't tolerate it.

EDIT: Here's a few new character options! You can either do one of these or Wonderland!

aa I want to make a wonderland themed design

http://pre03.deviantart.net/e78e/th/pre/f/2017/159/e/0/alice_by_hukiolukio-dbbzpy9.png I got kinda lazy with drawing and coloring it but I believe I got the point across

I made an aesthetic image thing based off the idea of an undead mermaid princess for whoever wants to do that ;'D http://sta.sh/0vt1ha93j8x

sstwins

GGGGGGGGGG SHOOT I KEEP DOING THIS BUT CLAIM!!!!!!!!! I just love fantasy sooooooooooo much!!!!!!!

Hukiolukio AAAAAAA I'm done!!!!!!! This ended up being a really crazy design so I'm going to try and explain it a little ;D

Okay, so you said undead mermaid princess, right? And I was like WOW YES SHE SHOULD HAVE NO EYES!!! But also that looks super creep lol, so I really ended up making 2 versions of her! Also, she's wrapped in seaweed instead of clothing, and she has gens in her hair and a tiara and purple skin. Here's some sketches with color palettes for digital art:

OdFhR2C.jpg bdyoeMT.jpg

And so I drew her in a swimming pool bc there were pools in a lot of your pictures too, and I was like YES SHE LIVES IN A POOL SHE LIKE HAUNTS THIS POOL but you can decide if you want to keep it or not!!!

Here are some colored traditional pics!

oAyUHtJ.jpg EL5lyQH.jpg

You can right click on any of the images and click open in new tab to see full-size!!! Also, I took loooots of pics of her, so here's the entire image gallery!

She was really, really fun to design, and I hope you like her!!!!!!

-------------------------

I would really love anything from my Pinterest! That's either another Wonderland character (I can never get enough!!!), or a character based on a month!! The only months that have specific genders are April and May (they're twins... April is a girl, and May is a boy!). They're all just normal humans, just with the month inspiration!! https://www.pinterest.com/sstwins9/
