    Draw whatever you want. If you are comfortable with this style, then go for it!

    The artstyle development arc is my favorite of this series.

    I believe someone's art style should be constantly evolving, changing ever so slightly as they improve their skills and find methods they like better. Don't ever apologize for your art style changing, that just means you are growing as an artist.

    Artists should never be "locked in" to a style! Excited to see what you make :D

    As someone who has loved and watched you for a long time, I say that these changes are pretty neat! What you explained makes sense, and I do like the differences!

  • @tryingartist42
    @tryingartist42 2 года назад +519

    I like the change! And even if for whatever reason I didn’t that wouldn’t matter because you’re the artist and you should get to change things up as much or as little as you want, but again I think the changes are all really nice

    I actually really like the new art style better than the “old” one. It looks a lot more polished and pretty.

    Art is complicated. Change is needed for growth. All that being said, I love the new style! Keep up the wonderful work!

  • @starfinney6308
    @starfinney6308 2 года назад +41

    All the changes u have done just seem like an organic growth & development of an artist expanding the dynamic range of tools in their toolbox. It feels v right & cool to see your playing w/ shapes for characters especially!

  • @tabled-emo
    @tabled-emo 2 года назад +55

    I really like colored outlines of characters.
    Feel free to keep experimenting with different character styles.
    I love these videos. Thank you for continuing to post.

    I like the new detail and with new styles makes the stories more alive and save Moonkitti the trouble of burnout.

  • @hiuslanka6897
    @hiuslanka6897 2 года назад +22

    I really adore the soft look your videos have been having lately!! its nice that you feel comfortable enough to be changing it around to your own preference

  • @honkinmarz1650
    @honkinmarz1650 2 года назад +15

    Honestly, I really like the style change. It’s big enough to make a difference, but similar enough to still be recognizable as moonkitti’s art.
    It’s nice to look at.

    I really like the changes, its unique and cute. I've always drawn my style similar to yours as I improved on drawing. ig youre just an inspiration to me

  • @MegaMixter
    @MegaMixter 2 года назад +8

    Do what you want, Moonkitti! You're very talented and it really shines through in the content you make. If you like this new style then embrace it! I definitely love it too.

  • @zainkhurshid6614
    @zainkhurshid6614 2 года назад +13

    I think adding the colored outlines make the characters look more calming and they don't pop out really making you look only at them and I like that.

  • @darknessproductions2119
    @darknessproductions2119 2 года назад +3

    While I'm very fond of the old style it was an experiment at one point just like this will be, and the important thing is that you feel good about what you're drawing and comfortable enough to make changes

  • @Annonimous1000
    @Annonimous1000 2 года назад +4

    I honestly love both styles! The new one looks similar to the style you use in your paintings/speedpaints with a nice blend of your classic cartoon style!

  • @foxley5374

    I think the new stuff looks great ! It’s always fun to see people experiment with their styles , I’ve been doing the same lately ! Do what you think feels good , we love it !

  • @akiriith
    @akiriith 2 года назад +19

    I like the new artstyle but I think I prefer the dark lines, the "sticker" feel of it was always a staple of your channel (the colored lines feel great for still images tho). I'll miss the bigger eyes but I see what you mean! Ultimately tho, I've always enjoyed seeing your style grow and change and even the stuff that feels a bit jarring for me is still pretty as heck, it's already growing on me. Any creator should not need to stick themselves in a box due to expectations from their followers/viewers, and you absolutely should go for what makes you happiest! Looking forward to see you get to that point you're fully happy with your ""new"" style

  • @Stefi_C
    @Stefi_C 2 года назад +4

    I noticed the change and I really like it. Not saying that I didn’t like the “older” style, but this one looks, I don’t know how to say… a little more realistic? But to us, Moonkitti style is Moonkitti style, no matter what, it’s recognisable and unique.

  • @SierraNevada2
    @SierraNevada2 2 года назад +1

    I think it looks great! you have improved a lot and, artists go through different art styles so if its the style you like go with it!!

  • @citrisaurora1182
    @citrisaurora1182 2 года назад +2

    I changed my artstyle a couple years ago for the same basic reason. Now I have probubly hundreds if not over a thousand combinations of parts. I look forward to see how yours turns out as you alter them.
    Edit: I calculated just individual head parts put together. IT'S OVER 47 BILLION!!!

  • @Ashcloud3228
    @Ashcloud3228 2 года назад +6

    Moon, you do you! Art is something we all do differently and you can change it if you want. Don’t let any criticism hit you hard, we love you and your videos! Keep going, you got this!

  • @hollypaw227
    @hollypaw227 2 года назад +1

  • @medd-lee
    @medd-lee 2 года назад +1

    it looks pretty great to me as someone who hasn't fully been paying attention, looks like you're just improving and being able to add more variation is incredibly great for you and your enjoyment if your own work!

  • @kaleidoscooope_nerd
    @kaleidoscooope_nerd 2 года назад +1

    I used to watch your videos ALL THE TIME for my art references. You helped me learn to draw eyes and legs for my cats and it was awesome. Your art always inspires me and I’m glad to see you’re still working on making it better. I hope it works out!

  • @swiftyoooo
    @swiftyoooo 2 года назад +1

    Its ur videos, ur styles, and personally im liking the most recent changes more than older videos

  • @-VoDkAsVengeance-
    @-VoDkAsVengeance- Год назад +1

    I enjoy the change! It seems like shorthand versions of the characters using shape language and such, rather than just a "trying to get it down" doodle the series started with.

  • @SS-op9wt
    @SS-op9wt 2 года назад +3

    Hell yeah! This adjustment still really suits you and registers as your signature style. Your improvement is very noticeable

  • @aspen1713
    @aspen1713 2 года назад +1

    Cool to see and hear your thoughts on this style evolution! :) I’ve definitely noticed some of the changes, but I’d always just thought you had extra time that to add more thoughtful details (like coloured line arts, multiply layers, etc). Looking forward to seeing the next step in Monkitti evolution!

  • @Annamations3110

  • @Kelis98
    @Kelis98 2 года назад +22

    I don’t mind the new style but personally at least rn I still prefer the old style and how “fun” it looks but neither is bad
    I guess I’m just used to the old style, I associate it with you more, and just prefer it for the style of videos you make personally.
    But go with whatever you prefer

  • @aris1869

  • @FirecrackerTNT

  • @soggyfrenchfries8964

    Dovewing 2016 VS 2022: Ah. Indeed. I can see her eyes have changed colours (joking ofc)
    To be honest, while I will "miss" the old style because it was fitting with the "humour" type extremely well, I also love the new one, and it's not like videos with the old style are no longer available. We'll all get used to the new one eventually. It's only natural that your style evolved, nobody's style stay the same throughout the years.

  • @sparker-sparkle
    @sparker-sparkle 2 года назад +2

    i really like that you’re changing things i’m not the biggest fan of the changes maybe im just not used to it yet maybe i’ll like it once you have changed it up a bit more but right now i like it just a tiny bit less i still think it’s great though im sure i’ll absolutely love the final result of the current experiments

  • @PixylMawthz

    I can relate to this, becouse it gets boring to draw the same style, over & over again.

    Heyo! I don’t really care about what you do with your Art but I have a suggestion for a video, so blue star comes sown from the heavens and says to Brambleclaw that he is being boring and needs to do something with his life, so Brambleclaw decides to save the clans from two-legs building a toys-r-us

    I like the change Looks Wise, but I prefer the old one for the funny short videos. I've watched you for a very long time. If you like the change go for it! Your humor won't change just because of the art style, & it doesn't mean I won't get a good laugh out of your video.

    For the fluffy cats, maybe they can be differentiated by body/head shape and amount/style of fluffiness? Ex: Greystripe is more square with long, straight hair, while Dovewing is rounder with shorter, floofier fur
