- I have 3 characters you’ve seen in some capacity in the past that I’ve revisited the design of, and I want to show you how to go about updating older designs, especially as you improve as an artist. I’ll be highlighting specific practical methods as the video goes on.

Character Design Forge has new videos every Tuesday.
It's kinda scary how you upload exactly the videos i need when i need them. Thanks for this :D
Glad you like them!
I think he’s secretly an art god. He has access to our inner consciousness. XD
Same, I've been having so much trouble updating my OCs designs
I’ve actually been digging through some older drawings of my characters (15-16 years old to be exact) and realized that I actually really like some aspects of my style from those old days, that I kind of lost as I’ve worked towards pushing my art to become more realistic. So I think I’m going to try to work some of that old “cartoony” style back in while still maintaining everything that I’ve learned since.
Thats a very real pitfall, I think! That's why the sketch-overtop is helpful in both directions in that way
Same here
I've kinda just recently went through something like that but it's more I recently decided to give the charters in my drawings what ever you call the part of the eye that has the color and I just found some art from 2015/2016 (I think?) and the charaters in those drawings had the eye color thing.
@@daredrogers3884 I think it's called the iris
Koji is SUCH a cool character design wow. He would seriously be kickass to see animated.
Can't wait for me to beacome a better artist and make my drawings better. thank you for this video as always.
You're so welcome!
@@CharacterDesignForge I was literally updating my charater that I liked alot.
also can I say that I *really* like the new design for the lizard-bird, I didn't really like thw old legs seemed weird
@@salimaa9209 ok, that's why I changed them. Was really a work in progress ahead of this.
I'm now considering "floof" an official character design term :3c
MAKE IT SO
Early bird gets the art tips early
Yeah this is big brain time
I like watching videos like this. I may not be updating any character designs, but I am exploring new ways to draw my characters on my computer now
Are time lapse videos really not that popular? I guess I can see that if it's one long piece. But something like this, that's a collection of smaller time lapsed characters, with a lesson behind them are pretty enjoyable.
Yep! A lot of times folks will... view... but skip to the end. Learned that the hard way with the first Super Nice Bros video... so instead, I try to point things out, and keep it instructional like this!
(Skipping to the end being detrimental to the RUclips Algorithm, because the percentage of time watched being lower than 50% in that case)
@@CharacterDesignForge Yeah.
Ennio is so cool! I don't know how you do it! Keep up the great work!! :D
Three things. I have never seen your channel, I have never seen this kind of content, and I didn’t search for this. RUclips just threw a random video that has nothing to do with my watch activity, and yet you earned a new sub
All artists know the peril of the Murky Shapes of Pants.
The hummingbird bee combo is such a cool concept!!!! What a cool pair
Okay but real talk. This is so helpful. We all know the artist thing where you designed a character and then worked on their story for a year, adding more characters and improving, and then, OOPS you've improved too much and the background people look so slick and awesome and the main character looks like a trashbag. Now we know how to fix it!-
I really like finding old art and remaking it as you can see how you've improved in art and charcater design :) and I really like the bird-bard dude's design!!! I think tall charcaters look cool ae
I was about to update a character just now lmaoooo
I've been stuck for a month on a project for someone I've not drawn in so long and this is exactly what I needed thank you!!!
I do not know how to spell Enyo, but I know I absolutely love the design and personality I can see through in his movements. I'd love seeing more of this character. ^^
On the trading card it says Ennio.
Timing could not be more perfect! I've been wanting to update some old designs of mine, kinda simply them a bit where need be. Thanks for the great tips!
This video is really helpful and I love to see how much you improved over the years. I’ll definitely be watching this later, as it’ll be quite helpful when I’m needing help with my characters and their designs
This was very helpful I have some characters who have gone through 5-7 redesigns in less than a year this could help me find what I like or dislike about each design
I not only learned how to upgrade my character, but I also learned how to share, thank you.
I actually did this to a couple of my old designs a few days ago, one was more of just a simple update while another was a bit of an design overhaul. Thanks for the info.
Thank you! There are TONS of old characters I have that I’ve been meaning to update!!
I've been following you for a while now and I just wanted to say how much of an inspiration you and your art journey has been for me, please keep going~!
This is a video I really needed and didn't know how much
Thank you, really ❣️
Thank you!!! As a learning exercise I'm doing some fan art for a show I loved as a kid. I'm redesigning the major characters, while still trying to keep them familiar to their original counter parts. It's been a lot of fun, but I've caught a few snags. This has really helpful advice. ❤
This is fantastic! I always love your series. I have a couple characters I've been wanting to redesign lately. This was very helpful.
These redesigns are pretty incredible!
I really liked this vídeo The designs really improved and the colors are beutiful. Congratulations.
This is just what I needed to improve my main OCs!
Lavvinder (young yet motherly), zealuthru (a heroic zombie... Thing), and Dissipythana (responsible, yet emo).
Really cool! I've been thinking about redesigning some characters. And your redesigns really improved on before! Extra cool
This has given me so much inspiration for my past characters, thank you! Also, love the Animal Crossing music
Im really digging the third dude's design.
Great tips, man. I know I’ll be using them soon
My dragon bois been looking a bit p l a i n
Man these are great; Enyo is so cute dude.
nice! i've been trying to redesign some of my characters recently, this really helps ;;
What a fun experience this was, really got me thinking about my old characters in a new light! Also Clem plush when? X)
Thanks for this video Brookes! This will definitely help me in improving my character's designs
Welp, my dragon characters need some more updating to do, ty for tips. :3
Your videos are really helpful.
I’ve hit a roadblock recently redesigning my character so this helps alot
Soo glad I found this.
I found some old art of some characters I forgot I had. I definitely need to update their designs. One is a ninja-fox thing (I'm going to change her colours a lot, and probably also her occupation), another is a dragon (I'm going to make him look a bit more dragon-like, and add colours) and the third is a monstrosity of a bird-lizard thing. That one needs a full re-design.
Ive got a robot i drew a few months ago that has lotus flowers in the design but not that happy with how that part came out but I finished it regardless and i want to have it give a better feel with how it was made to fit the kind friendly and cool appearance but not steer away from their assassin/hacker/athletic capabilities
Inyo is so cute but like manly at the same time, idk how to explain it, I love him, he gives me the same vibes as midoria from bnha
Hey, I have a question to ask.
I have a group of characters I’ve had for years, some longer then others, and I’m trying to redesign them as best as I can to put emphasis on their personalities, situations and backstories.
My question is; are there any good tips to redesigning characters you’ve already established in both personality and overall appearance? Or would they be no different then then tips shown in this video?
This video will come in use in a couple years after I invented my OC XD. I never feel ready to draw one.
dew it now! Fail fast!
@@CharacterDesignForge Thanks for the encouragement! I will try! Might fail but, I will try!
Just asking but what art program did you use?
Nice
Wow, you've improved so much! Been subbed for a year or so, and while I always thought you had solid advice, your skill level seems to have drastically improved lately. Any tips for how you learn? Any resources we should be using?
I make it a point every week to share in these videos, means to improve your art, and the course I've been talking about that launches at the end of the month will be a comprehensive means of doing so as well.
@@CharacterDesignForge I will keep watching your videos and be on the look out :)
What drawing program are you using?
Procreate on the iPad Pro
4
This is nice X3
Am I the only one who completely revamped their characters designs during quarantine?
Me: *Laughs at Step 1 in Hand Drawn and Tracing Paper*
Cesar Victoriano *laughs in windows, sunlight, and tape*
What hardware do you use?
iPad Pro Gen 3 12.9"
@@CharacterDesignForge thank you. I'm currently looking for digital drawing utensils
I make good art, but my characters are boring. I should update them a bit now when I've gotten a small grain of motivation. :)
just out of curiosity, which would you suggest someone beginning to make art use, paper and pencil, or a computer program?
Do you have a video about how to redeem a bad character?
Cartoonystyles are always better, you can drive your message furthe with a design that speaks for itself

**F L O O F**
my furry braincells are melted omg
The hummingbird character improved a lot with just some adjustments, I have a crush on Ennio sorry
Nice an early birthday present
I’m the 3.1Kth person to like
Drawing over an old design isn’t always a very good technique!! It can get you stuck using old wonky ways. It’s better to just start fresh and create a correct “scaffolding” to go off of instead of using a previous one that’s potentially flawed.
Never did I say to always draw over an old design.
4th and most tech-y way to update your character designs:
*- dowbload a new skin.*
Edit: I know, it's a joke, chill ✌
first
good for you
@@Goobermensh as it should be
You are
Wow your obnoxious
