Alastor Redesign
I didn’t feel like doing a fullbody, but I tried to redesign Alastor!
I like the idea of him being a radio deer, but they barely do anything cool visually with either concept?? His antlers are small generic deer antlers, and other than the radio dial eyes and his microphone he doesn’t really scream ‘radio’. Plus his color palette is awful, his smile is the only hue contrast on his entire body!
I decided to make him look like a mix of both a radio and a deer! his headshape was inspired by an Air King Skyscraper radio, which from what I researched is a line of radios from the 1930s. His color palette was based on a specific image of this radio I found online. His outfit was just stuff I found after a quick Google search for 1930s fashion. I made his antlers into radio antenna, and gave him actual deer ears rather than the weird hair tufts he has in canon. I kept the slit radio dial eyes.
Here are the reference images I used organized into a sort-of moodboard!
I was gonna add a rough outline of a rewrite of his personality and role in the story, but this is getting kinda cluttered. I think once this is submitted and posted I’m gonna reblog it with some of those details

Oh this absolutely RIPS. The details you included, the fixed palette (I LOVE THIS PALETTE), the radio face, the period appropriate clothes, the radio antenna antlers, everything is so AMAZING. He looks so perfectly 1930s with still such a distinct smile and a more unique radio/deer design. This is so creative and I’m so amazed and I love this so much!!!

To start us off, here's the redesign I submitted to hazbinhostile!! I don't have much figured out about Alastor in my rewrite AU yet, but he is no longer the edgy, obviously evil character he is in canon, not in design or personality!
