my Otherworldly_Night design

(also placeholder Joyous design but this aint about him)

this twink was a nightmare to design but overall i am ok to proud with my interpretation. design notes under the cut because it is in my NATURE to yap about character design

Design notes!!!

I wanted them to be uncanny,, hopefully you can see this in their proportions – their hunched over posture, weird leg:everything else ratio, their arms long enough for their hands to slightly extend past their knees, and that face-wide grin. Also this is less noticeable in this piece but their thighs ARE bent back in a digitigrade stance which I thought was a fun way to hint that This Thing Is Not Human. I thought making them the most human-looking out of the whole Night cast would be interesting because my interpretation of their name isn't that they're Otherworldly because they're the most similar looking to humans. I have to thank Slenderman and Lamb of Kindred (League) for being my main inspirations to draw on for their uncanniness

nerd shit but I also tried to take values into account while designing this guy. I don't like how muddled the values around his upper torso are BUT i tried to make their "flowers" and grin the brightest because those SHOULD be the first things your eyes focus on

Their hair!!! Oh it was delightful to work on their hair. Like I already wrote I based them off sea urchin anatomy; specifically flower urchins. I simplified the pedicellariae into flower shapes courtesy of the name and because they contributed to that expanding spiky shape theory they had going on (see: their snazzy coat flared out, their tie, their hair when it's not limp). Also they're venomous cuz flower urchins are!! That's fun. I'd imagine the Nights are immune to the venom cuz they're made of the same stuff but the venom isn't too potent either to the Day Operatives who are mostly machine and Also held together by darkness

Their hands are Also pedicellariae! if you look closer they only have 3 "fingers" because of that. These are also venomous

Their mouth is veryy based off a scallop [see below]. Their teeth are slightly feathery and flexible and their actual eyes are fixed between their gums. They mayhaps have 30 of them

i dont know what the FUCK is going on with their shoes that may be the design's weakest link. i love the idea they just wear slip-ons however

that's all that i have in mind as of writing! thank you so much for listening. I apologize if this is bordering on incompressible as ive never been the person to write my thoughts intelligibly especially if its on something im passionate on such as character design,,, ive been wanting to redesign Otherworldly_Night for a WHILE now and he's one guy whos gone through many MANY REVISIONS so im super happy to finally find a design i can get behind
