if your city had a mascot, what do you think it would be??
try out paperlike here! 🤍paperlike.com/lavender
A chicken because there’s too many chickens in Yuba City
A bird with autumn colored feathers.
That is a very interesting thing to think about. I am not from the US, I am from a small town in Slovakia (more specifically, in the Eastern part) where I was born and have been living almost my whole life. I think I would go with one of the bird species that lives here because they are quite plentiful in my area, such as house sparrows, Eurasian blue tits, magpies, thrushes/blackbirds, ...
ITS A HATE CRIME THAT YOU DID LA AND SEATTLE BUT NOT PORTLAND. We need to be a hipster beaver.
Wooooo
New York rat should be named Tony. Because if you picture the most hackneyed stereotype of a New Yorker you can conjure in your imagination, they're probably saying "'Ey, Tony!" in an Italian accent.
ooh i love this one plus it reminds me of the tony’s which is broadway
As a New York-Ian I approve
YES PLS OMG
1. Lewis 2.Angel 3.Liberty 4.Linnaeus (fun fact:The scientific name for the killer whale, Orcinus orca, was given by the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century)
linnaeus gave like most well-known animals their scientific names 😭😭😭
That’s very cool, I had no idea! I might share this with my dad, he’s Swedish and his favorite animal are Orcas! xD
is was thinking Lou lol but i literally love everything else
Linnaeus isn’t just the one who gave scientific names to lots of animals (including the orca), he’s literally the one who made binomial nomenclature, like, a thing, which is pretty cool. Naming orcas is also cool, though
I did not know that I’m a swed
Hey Haley, this might be a niche suggestion, but how about turning fonts into character designs?
Oo good idea!
No shade but I think undertale did that already
@@fennelcomeaux9663 Are the character sprites based on fonts?
@@fennelcomeaux9663okay?
@searchingforusername9393 Sans and Papyrus just both have the names of fonts haha. Sans for “Comic Sans” and Papyrus for “Papyrus”. And they also use those fonts for their dialogue.
If the sprites are based off of them I’m unsure?? But I wouldn’t be surprised
as a houston native born and raised i would love to see a houston mascot. we’re the fourth largest city in the states and never get to be destroyed in disaster movies, but a lavendertown mascot would soothe the woe of being forgotten by hollywood
Dang, I never thought of that! It really doesn’t get rep in major movies. What animal might the mascot be?
@@LimegreenSnowstormI'd say a horse or a cow! Maybe a longhorn?
We definitely are represented by the humble opossum my fellow Houston goober
@@awesomyth Definitely a longhorn or those little black birds i always see in Walmart parking lots ect.
Houston does have a mascot;
It’s orange letter H with a cowboy hat and boots. Hence the nickname “H-town”.
I really hope Haley continues this idea with more cities lmao (i specifically want Houston 🤘)
I was thinking Austin would be really cool given the live music and graffiti and stuff
I hope she continues outside of the USA afterwards! As a British boi myself, I'd love to see her do one for London
same here! i want to see what she'd do with Atlanta!
What animal do you think Houston would be? Maybe like a bobcat would be cute
I love the Austin, Houston, and Atlanta ideas!!! I'm commenting from Ohio so I hope she can do Cleveland!
As a person who lives in Seattle we all 100% are walking punk orcas
I really love Japan's mascot culture tbh
I love this 😭😭😭
Ideas for another video like this:
- Portland, Oregon
- Raleigh, North Carolina
- Chicago, Illinois
- Orlando, Florida
Orlando has to be an alligator
As an Oregonian, Portland is WILD we tend to avoid it all costs 💀
@@soggiest_oreozzz77 FACTS but i like going there to get pizza at mississippi pizza pub its so yummy
@@soggiest_oreozzz77 spoken like someone who lives in a rural area and has never visited lol
@@thegoddessofbread6535 I've visited alright, place is an absolute shitshow 💀
Cincinnati OH actually has a mascot- the flying pig!! There were big art projects to decorate them around the city/businesses, I’d love to see your take on it!
I'd love to see a mascot for Minneapolis-St. Paul, the Twin Cities. It would also be timely because Minnesota is getting a new flag and state seal.
Same!
Absolutely! Maybe a loon or something? I live on the other side of the state so I wouldn’t know specific Cities things that well
I literally came here to say this! The loon that is now our seal should be our mascot! They could be combined with perhaps our state fossil? The ancient beaver! We also have a state muffin, drink, tree, and flower to pull from.
The River, our lakes, wild rice, the North Star and lumber jacks/paul Bunyan could be icons to pull from too!
The black, white, red and yellow medicine wheel would be a way to incorporate indigenous cultures too (as would wild rice specifically for ojibwe culture).
@@Biggestgayestbird yes! I LOVE the new seal, maybe it could also have a north star motif?
@@Chaotic-Toast that would be so cool, especially since that will be on our flag too!
my favorite youtuber knows about my hometown- I've never really known someone outside of the LC valley that has been to Lewiston, thank you for making us a mascot! i think they're adorable!
To cover the papermill stuff, you get used to it after a while and its genuinely not to bad... though i've lived here for years so meh
Giving the Seattle orca docs and fishnets is so accurate XD. Freemont is also my favorite part!
Was not expecting my state as the first one. Idaho is so forgotten 😅
I love the mascots, they’re all so cute!
I’ve always loved mascots, in my country theres pretty much one sports mascot and thats all 💀
Where are you from? What is the mascot?
I love your Seattle Orca!
I’m German so I don’t know sh*t about American cities, but I am a huge fan of iZombie which takes place in Seattle so I love learning about it :D ❤
I'm so glad Seattle got picked! I'm so happy our awesome alt music got represented, the punk community here is amazing :)
"They have a pretty great CostCo there..." That kind of sums up living in any city/town in Idaho outside the capitol (which I saw an advert for boasting their Best Buy).🙄
7:04 The coyote makes me think of Doflamingo from One Piece alot, heh X3
I was baffled and shocked when u brought up Lewiston 😱 I live near Lewiston right now and I feel so seen
Most the towns near by Lewiston are so small we go into Lewiston for shopping lol, indeed stinky
Same :,)!!! even though I live across the bridge in Clarkston rn, I was born in Lewiston and I was so shocked she brought it up I had to do a double take lmao 😭
Oh my gosh i have lived in Seattle for my whole life and I think the way you portrayed this city via the orca mascot is really amazing ! :D I love how NITW reminiscent they are and that’s super awesome !
You know it’s a good day when lavender Towne posts
Edit: The L.A one is so accurate 😭
Well we have to name the Lewiston mascot Lewis because based on what you’ve said they loooove the name Lewis over there
OMG the little bagel ears for New York I caaaaaan't... Completely accurate, although the NYC rats are a little more menacing than you make them out to be lol! All these designs are so cute, it'd be great to see more in the future! Maybe Boston or Detroit or something would be cool.
The only name I can think of right now is Eugene for NYC, I don't know why it just seems like it fits ;p
These look really cool! In the future, might I suggest doing a mascot for Philadelphia? Y’know, since it is the birthplace of America itself.
Actually, life evolved on Africa, and then traveled to the rest of the world where places like America were formed.
we kinda already have a mascot but i mean who says a city can only have one
@@Imjustkendall What does that have to do with the comment
@@Imjustkendallthey said the birthplace of America not life itself lmao
IM SO GLAD IDAHO HAS GOTTEN SOME RECOGNITIONNNN
Fun fact the food at the Space Needle is absolute ✨garage✨
I love the Lewiston one so much. I'd never heard of the town before, but having a mascot really makes it stick in my mind.
The deer/skunk is so freaking adorable
What a great take on potential American yurukyara! I love how you went with a punk orca for Seattle ☺
P.S. Kumamon (the black bear in your thumbnail) is the mascot for Kumamoto. It's actually pretty far away and on a different island from Tokyo 🥲 I don't know if Tokyo has a yurukyara that represents the whole city, but they've got a few different ones for specific public services and such
I USED TO LIVE IN LEWISTON! I moved out just recently to live with my mother in Washington and I do visit there everyonce in awhile to see my dad and grandma. Funny you mentioned the paper mill, I used to hate driving up or down the mountains and smell it (I lived in Texas for most of my life and I've never smelt anything like it before). I'd always have my airpods in listening to music so my ears wouldn’t pop due to the air pressure. Fishing there was really fun too, lots of rainbow trout. They still have the Christmas decorations up, I went over by last week to see them. It really means a lot to me and I'm surprised you of all people even mentioned it. It really brings back good memories.
I’d love to see more obscure cities! (I really like small cities or bustling towns in general, they just vibe right)
"Pearl" for the orca - as in Pearl Jam and also a reference to the beautiful sea. Loved my little visit to Seattle and I'm obsessed with orcas! Good work! ❤
These are really neat! I love the design elements you included
As a native Seattleite whose favourite animal are Orcas, I can't help but especially love the little Orca friend you've designed! Seattle doesn't get enough love out in media things, I'm always tickled seeing people mention it. :D
I can't think of a name, tbh (too many ideas) but I saw some neat ones in the comments already!
Seattle Orca is so incredibly adorable 😭❤️
As someone who lives in one of the places featured here I love the mascot design and I want it to be an official thing so bad 😭
i love how you chose the stinkiest one first 😭 realest
Hi, Idahoan here.
Didn't know where Lewiston was, it's up by Moscow in the pan handle. Really cold up there
These were such cute designs! I really liked the Lewiston and Seattle ones the most. I could totally imagine merch for them in the cities the way that Japan has merch of their mascots.
If you decide to do this again I'd love to see more southern cities like New Orleans, Dallas, Orlando, Atlanta. These are the more well known ones but I think you could make really cool designs because there is so much culture especially in a place like New Orleans :D
I live in idaho, more south though, i was so happy when you decided to draw something for it 🖤🖤🖤
i love this concept!! if u do another video like this could you do Boston or Chicago or Austin next?
feeling sick today but its fine since lavendertowne posted
Visiting Los Angeles is a really unique experience! The best way I can describe it is that it feels like going to another country, but not really a specific country, but like *several* different countries all in one. It’s wild!
Ive seen a few towns with mascots!! Specifically, Tryon NC has a mascot called Morris the Horse, bc it's in an area with lots of equestrians. Morris is on all the postcards/trinkets in local giftshops, in parades, etc.
Also Hendersonville NC has bear statues all around. On almost every street corner in downtown, there's a different painted bear statue. And Brevard is famous for its white squirrels, so they're on all the town branding and there are several shops in town that are themed around white squirrels.
These are just 3 towns in a very small area, im sure they're alllll over the country.
ah yes my favorite city in the usa
T O K Y O
omg! taking japanese in a new zealand high school i was once assigned to make a mascot for a new zealand city. my city was wellington, the capital, and i named my mascot Kaze Guruu kun (windy gru) and he was a robot with a wind turbine on his head. it's so cool to see mascots for other cities around the world!
The funny thing is that the city I live in, Cincinnati, actually has a mascot, the flying pig. Why the flying pig is so important to Cincinnati is because in the 1800, many farmers in that area got most of their profit on pigs. So pigs became a huge symbol. There are flying pig/winged pigs everywhere in Cincinnati, and we have an annual marathon there called the Flying Pig Marathon.
L.A. - Holla or Holland (sound like “hollywood” “hola” and “holler”)
NYC - Newton or Coney (lots of cones in the design and coney island)
Seattle - Needle (space needle + record needle)
Lewiston - Odie (sounds like “oh dear/deer” and “oder)
To name the mascots, here are what could be good fits for these mascots:
1. Louie (Because it sounds like Lewis)
2. Laylay (because it has "LA" in it)
3. Free (because Freedom and it has been a name according to some)
4. Rocker (because Punk Rock)
And that's that, I know some of these are fairly bland but then again, I was feeling bland at the moment, so... Yeah.
That tokyo mascot is so cute :0, this was a great video idea
If you mean the Thumbnail one that's not the Tokyo mascot specifically its the kumamoto mascot
Yes, Kumamon is very popular. And No, Kumamon is not from Tokyo. as @randompurpleslime has stated, Kumamon is from Kumamoto.
THE WAY I CLICKED SO FAST -
11:02 the bagel ears are so real 😔
FR
Real
Man, this makes me wanna design mascots for cities I’ve lived in!
Omg these little dudes are amazing! I would absolutely love to see a mascot for Chicago. ☺️
These characters are so unique, I don’t know how you come up with them 😮
The sad thing is the pretty good Costco isn't even in Lewiston it's in Clarkston Washington 🥲
As a seattleite, the Orca is very cute and accurate 🐋
I would love if you could do a mascot for a city in every state! These are so cute!
St. Louis mascot would be a gun
If that's the case it'd be the same for most of the south
That's just America as a whole.
@@bessieburnet9816 yeah but st. Louis is the most dangerous
stop being corny with this bullshit 😒
FIRST!!! I LOVE YOUR ART
nope
@@logsday yuh huh
i love your videos so much they bring me so much comfort, also i love all your drawings 🫶🏻🫶🏻
Oh man there's a Canadian city i grew up 5 hrs from, that was considered "the big city" where we'd stock up on essentials, so we went there a few times a year...But every time it just stiiiinks. The pulp mill makes the whole city reek 90% of the year. On the highway in, you can often smell it before you see it. Honestly making a paper/pulp mill towns mascots main trait "Stinky" is incredibly fitting lol.
I love all these designs so much! the two tails on the orca was a clever way to incorporate that, until you said it I thought you were drawing its tail wagging kind of weirdly but this is so much better
I think the lewiston animal should be named clark after his brother :) and since los angeles is the city of angels you could name the coyote gabriel, michael, or something like that. the rat pigeon could be stewart little and the orca could be willy
If you get a chance I would love to see a mascot for Washington DC! It’s probably one of my favorite cities, mostly because of how many awesome museums there are. I could go to the Smithsonian every day and never get tired of it.
I live about 2 hours from Seattle, and tbh I kinda forget that Seattle (and just Washington in general) have had impacts on culture, and I getting more rep for Washington/the Pacific Northwest. And an orca is absolutely perfect ❤
THE ORCA IS SO CUTE
FUCK YEAH NEW LAVENDER TOWNE VIDEO LETS GOOOO
Legend says if you say the queens name 3 times you get a pin??
Lavendertowne
Lavendertowne
Lavendertowne
im so glad this came out ive been thinking about lavendertowne today for some reason 😅
1. Louie for obvious reasons,
2. Rose, after Axl Rose from GNR, because I'm a nerd, and I think rock & and metals' historic culture could've been represented more! I SO appreciate you acknowledging the alt music scene in seattle though!!! Plus the sassy design & big coat reminded me of Axl lol.
3. Peter! After spiderman, or course! Because again I'm a huge nerd. (I also hope you know every detail you put into that design were all things I was hoping for and imagining the second you said New York, it came out SO PERFECT! I wouldn't change a thing!
4. I LOVE this orca so much! Every design element is perfect! I's name it Siren! Yes as a nod to starbucks but also a Siren Song! That sounds metal lol
I love these SO MUCH thank you for doing these!
as a new yorker, if i were to pick a new york mascot i'd consider a red tailed hawk since we've got a decent number of them and also everyone was crazy about Pale Male the hawk
that said...
that is idealizing us quite a lot, there are many more rats than there are hawks
your rat with wings is very cute :)
Nice to see a fellow Idahoan. I grew up about 30 minutes from Boise, so not super close to Lewiston, but it still threw me off guard to even hear the word Idaho.
(optional pronunciation, it’s just how I’d say it, I added last names as well because they’re fun.)
Lewiston, Idaho: Lewi Daph (Loo-ee Daf)
LA, California: Lo-Anga Cally. (Low-An-Ja, Call-ee)
New York: Nelly Yuna (nell-ee, yoon-a)
Seattle Washington: Sandy Washington. (Sand-ee, and I’m too lazy to spell the pronunciation for Washington.)
My favorite is Lewiston Idaho, but that’s probably because I’m super biased towards deers.😅
11:10 i agree nyc bagels are something else
This was so cute! I kinda hope you end up doing Orlando, Florida! If ya do, do it as an alligator! There is an entire Alligator zoo there lol
I’d love to put forward Jimi for the Seattle orca mascot! The Jimi Hendrix exhibit is a staple of Seattle’s Museum of Pop Culture, where many of their exhibits rotate out. And he is, of course, legendary when it comes to his influence on music! It also just seems like it would suit a lil punk Orca.
Name ideas!!
1. Clark- cuz the whole lewis and clark thing.
2. Holli- As in Hollywood.
3. Cheese/Peppy- Because pizzarat.
4. Luca- Idk why but punk rock makes me think luca or lukas.
1. Louie
2. Angelo
3. Track or Bagel (track like train or subway tracks)
4. Rocky
LOVE YOU HALEY!!!
As a certified born and raised Idahoan, I feel I have the most insight to this.
Potato. He must be names Potato. Or any potato-based pun.
Oh I love these designs!
I'm not a new yorker but my sisters are, so I consider myself very well aquainted with the city and the minute I saw that rat shape I knew you understand New York. New Yor is 90% rats, I think. The bagel ears are adorable.
i love ur art soooo much!! 🤩🤩
you make the best videos btw!!
your animals look so much like the style of night in the woods and i love it
Yes, I was just doing the most boring stuff till you posted
I love the punk orca so so much, I would absolutely buy a plushie of that design 😂
There is a rat in this. Heck yeah, Rats are awesome.
The Los Angeles one should be named sassy IDK why just seems like a good fit
this is such a cool concept omg
Coyote - Star, Deer skunk thing - Poki, Rat - Liberty, Orca -John. Do I have any reasons, no its just the first things that came to mind when i look at them
8:44 WOW THIS IS SUCH A ACCURATE REPRESENTATION OF NEW YORK 😍😍
NGL, going final fantasy mode is one of my goals for my artistic capabilities.
i'm so glad you added Seattle!! i live in Washington and i used to go to Seattle often as a little kid because my dad had to do work trips there! I never saw any orcas but i did go to this place called the Undersea Gardens there and there were sea lions and other creatures, and my biology special interested little kid brain was having the time of his life! i also saw the troll under the bridge! I never went in the space needle but i saw it. i wish to visit Seattle once again to this day, i haven't been there since about 2014 or so.
It’s cool that you lived next to Lewiston cause sometimes I go there for shopping! You’re totally right though, it’s stinks so bad (not as bad as Tillamook OR though, that place is rank)
Lavender I gotta say, you what inspires me to draw I swear! I love your art style for every drawing it's so mysterious and cute at the same time I love it!! ♡♡♡
1. Lou 2. Marilyn or Angie 3. Remy or Logan 4. Samuel or Buzz! This is also a really great video! You're very talented!
I like Buzz :o
Oh my god thank you so much for giving seattle a bit more love! This was my hometown and beautiful and underrated thank you again!
Skunk-Deer: Chestnut/Chester
Glam Girl Coyote: Gloria
NYC Rodent: Terrance
Rocker Whale: Domino
I think Winnie would be such a cute name for Lewiston’s mascot!!
Love this concept, so creative! New Orleans or Detroit would be cool or maybe Orlando
also dont hesitate with reading another creepypasta i LOVE those i binge them every so often
(the orca was my fav btw so CUTE)
