Some of my favorite Daycare OCs I’ve seen around Tumblr... Plus my boy, of course, wondering why he doesn’t get as cool a design haha.
Twinkling Star belongs to @curiousechoo. Love the aesthetic on this boy, plus the poster they drew to match Sun & Moon is absolutely amazing.
Puff belongs to @linkerbell and is the child of vurelly‘s Cosmo and starlightcloudbaby‘s Cloud. Cosmo is one of my favorites, & I’ve drawn him before, but there’s something really precious about Puff’s design that I love. Maybe it’s the way one of her eyes is hidden in the cloud, or maybe it’s the capelet. Either way, adorable.
Edit: I have been informed that I’ve made an error. Puff is ACTUALLY the child of @vurelly‘s Roto and @oriiduckko‘s Tear. Whoops!
Starlet belongs to @saltyfryz. Baby. Baby baby baby. Could totally see, like... 3-5 of these little guys running around the Daycare as playmates for the toddlers.
Twinkle belongs to @ihavenohotcocoa. Very motherly vibe. You don’t get many female Daycare OCs, funny enough. Even the ones that look feminine, like Cloud or fan-favorite Blommy (who I still have to draw) are he/him. There’s also an elegance in the simplicity of her design that I like, but it’s also streamlined to the point of being borderline futuristic. Reminds me of all those 80′s/90′s movies speculating what the future would be like.
And of course, my boy Star. Looks so basic compared to everyone else here, haha. I still love him, & my reasoning for his design is still something I’m proud of. If I had to rework him though, I’d probably change the face I gave him. It makes him look much more in line with Sun & Moon, as he’s meant to be a prototype of them, but it feels a little off with the star shape. Oh well - I don’t think I could think of anything better without taking cues from other Daycare OCs, and in a way, his current face still makes a lot of sense.
