Winx Club: Icy redesign
So I tried to give winx reboot a chance… and by a chance I mean 2 episodes. And surprise surprise I hated it. It’s not even all the changes I hate but the fact that they took away so much of the depth of the story telling TT^TT and the animation looks as stiff as the sims.
SO as someone who grew up with the show I wanted to do a few redesigns myself. Cause if we really want a more “gritty”, adult winx club (not looking at Fate, I refuse too.) why not add some things yourself?
SO my goal is to add diversity, depth, and maybe a little more interesting character design :)
Ideas so far for the Trix
STORMY: a black woman, DUH. But also need to figure out more character depth for her cause even in show she doesn’t get a lot… Also I think “Gravity” from the new Hazbin Hotel season 2 would be PERFECT for her
DARCY: TOXIC lesbian with the classic hippy, trippy, witchy vibe. Which would also make sense for when she manipulated Riven and spelled him to fall for her.
ICY: I have the most so far. I wanted to really make her more intimidating and scary, With her white hair in the show I thought it’d be cool for her to have albinism and to lean even more heavily into the ice witch look. So she has patches of skin always covered in ice crystals and looks like they’re frost bitten. With the albinism I think she eventually had a lot of problems with her eyes, so she has very low vision and a sensitivity to light, can only really see general, blurry shapes and everything tends to be very dim. WHICH brings her up close and personal for her combat style, while still far from perfect she’s able to see better up close. She also has a walking cane of ice that turns into various weapons when needed in combat…..
… Also she’s like 6 ft tall and always wears heels, so she tends to cap out at 6’4/6’5 daily.
