oh i follow you on Pinterest
I love your content so much. This video especially triggered all the good things in my brain. Thank you so much for sharing your incredible art. Bird is my new favorite character. ❤️
Now I want to see a member of Bird’s family, that isn’t lacking in their magic.
id love to see if bird has any siblings... or any sibling/family member he's close too... supportive but also sensitive to what they need
I’d wanna see a whole family portrait, just to bask in their beauty and talents ✨
A magic school with nature themed witches, knights and fairies? This is literally my winx rewrite where there's only one school and the genders aren't separated lmao
I was just about to say !!!! Winx club!!
Oooooo do tell about the rewrite💅🏾
Giving us the beautiful boy fairies we *deserve*
@@sarahblack9333 No, you only get paladins.
@@PowerSpirit50 NOOOOOOO
kira remember sharing is caring, you can’t ALWAYS be the most talented and skillful and funny person of all time 🙄 GOD
The meaning to this statement. Don't stress out all the time. Chill.😎
Yes she can, and she is
Mom said it’s my turn with the talent
She can, she will, and she is. 😂
I love Specter just having such a chill and generally monochrome color palette, and then Bird is over here looking like a rooster. Amazing dynamic 10/10 :)
Ngl; I love the Ghost Orchid so much the second I saw his silhouette I went "I need to put him in a jar."
Oh god that just reminded me of the Rainbow Dash Jar and I hate myself omlll
@@E6Jazz Heyyy can you not do that? Now you legally owe me bleach
I meant like putting a “firefly in a jar” kind of situation with him mid-lecture where the camera zooms out and his voice gets all squeaky and tiny but he hasn’t noticed a thing so he keeps on talking. I know you’re not supposed to mess with the fae but Spectre looks like he would be fun to annoy.
@@tinylordhelix I guessed that was the case 💀
Hate that the Internet managed to ruin something as innocuous as *jars* and the concept of putting things in them
Bird is the odd one out of his family because of *gasp* being a product of an affair?? That he doesn't know about. Maybe he will tap into magic he is much more comfortable and better at upon discovering this dark family secret.
THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING
@@Dew_ee great minds think alike 😎
@@Ijustmadethistocomment YEPPERY 😈
I like the wings/antlers comparison for Spectre, but hear me out: advanced fae magics put significant pressure on the body and as a result sufficiently advanced users grow odd wing enhancements (possibly related to the dominate type) like Spectre's tendrals, Wisteria's purple overlays, and Fuschia's hypersaturation. Possibly an explanation for Bird's wings being so much less impressive than the rest of his family?
Also, Spectre being a fish guy? Iconic. I bet they're all meticulously planted and scaped, and his favorite tank is his ghost shrimp.
I love them all. I love the idea of Specter being all red-faced and Fuschia saying some dumb stoner “deep” stuff and him just shutting down and instantly de-aggroing just from sheer confusion. Wisteria and Bird are like, definitely the mom and dad of the group respectively.
_Incredible_
✨ Annoying but in a hot way ✨
The ivy league school should literally be called Ivy Academy.
totally agree!
Spectre is giving prime Lucius Malfoy vibes and I'm here for it. Also he probably is full sciency and performs very little magic, so people underestimate him when it comes to an actual fight
This reminds me of Barbie fairytopia. With the flowers and council type stuff. Love it!!!!
I would love to see birds sister. Like the cocky golden child who excels in everything bird lacks.
Oh no is Byrd Zuko????
22:22 her design is absolutely breathtaking
MORE FAIRY STUFF, HELL YEAH
these are gorgeous! tbh I love the idea of specter and bird having a rivalry where bird is just like haha we have fun here :) and specter is like this man is my hereditary enemy
I like the fact you made Bird look of the native tropical "fairy" that looks maybe Hawaiian or Amazoin with old native tattoos. It's fitting
To me it reminds me of Hay Hay from Moana
(This is a lot of theorizing btw) Why do I feel that Ghost Orchid goes through this redemption arch where he dose learn about that all magics are equal but he is like grumbly about it like how a dad that says he dose not like dogs first interacts with the dog you brought home lol. But also what if he is also super strict about not abusing your powers and that’s why he does not use his hypnosis a lot. (Some of this makes no sense to the character but 🤷)
"Are you a dog or cat person?"
Spectre: "Fish"
Wisteria is absolutely stunning and I hope all these characters will make it to your shop as art!!
I promise you, wisteria IS immortal. I can't get rid of it from my yard. Yet it will not bloom this year. So many leaves and vines popping up!
Your designs always amaze me. The color palettes, shape language, outfit designs and the small details are incredible; even for being on art block. Also I can see a huge evolution on your designs and art style between this and the older video. Amazing job, that inspired me to go more creative with my own designs
honestly i cannot tell that this was a hard art week. i think that your designs are gorgeous, especially fuchsia. she just looks... weirdly like a bad guy haha. also i love bird and i wish the best for him. i just want that poor boy to be happy.
I love ghost orchid and fuchsia! The outfits are very on point speaking of which please turn birds into ballerinas, they can be a team of magical girls and i don't know maybe they can go to a winx club inspired fantasy school please consider it i want to know your feelings on balletcore and Idk maybe they shape shift into the birds they're based on kinda like in the story of swan lake just a thought...
10/10 would love to revisit this fairy school jam. The principal of this school must be done with all of their collective shit honestly and I'm here for it.
Dude. DUDE seeing you break down the shapes of the flower and your notes was mind-blowing. Character design is a weakness of mine but idk something JUST CLICKED. Thank you!!
this is how I picture the fairies/imps in a midsummer night's dream
no idea why it occurred to me watching this but oh well
have fun with that random thought of shakespeare writing high fantasy
Lol, it would be hilarious to think of Fuchsia and Spectre both using subtle Jedi mind tricks on each other back and forth until neither remembers what the point of the conversation was. I can see Spectre ending up smoking some leaf in his office and suddenly realizing he doesn't remember how he got it 😂
SHE WAS A FAIRY👹
5:09 let’s go lesbians let’s gooooo 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Not sure if this would interest you at all Kira, but if you wanted to take a step back from the growing pains of developing your art, I think making a video that explains the overarching story/connection between the characters you have made thus far would be really interesting!! Personally love your storytelling and hearing your thought process. Just something to consider, make sure to take care of yourself! Art block won’t last forever, do what feels right
@PricklyAlpaca I dont want to add to the lore, but it would be cool if Wisteria bloodline originates back to a Great Water Spirit. That would explain her royal blood and and to the waterfall aspect in your lore.
I don't know why, but Bird just looks like the kind of teacher you would see at a concert or a convention. And then when he sees you he would be super chill and try to make sure you're having a fun time too.
WISTERIA AND SPECTER ARE SO GOOD!!! PEAK DESIGN, definitely one of my all time favorites
I dont know why but as soon as wisteria came on screen and you said she has a high respect for the science side of magic but wants to represent the students interests I immediately was like “spectre has a crush on her but wont make a move cuz she doesn’t fully side with his philosophy” and its mutual in my head but she wont make a move cuz she knows he would not budge with his science thing and she wont lose her job over him (cuz professional stuff), i love all these characters, i can imagine bird and phusia just playing video games to chill, i love birds lineage and his kinda distaste for magic cuz it did him dirty, these dynamics are just so good!
On a real note, I completely understand how frustrating art block can be, especially when it is a very regulating activity and you just feel disconnected from your brain and body/inspirational drive. Like you said, I feel a big skill leap about to take place when your block does start to flow again.
But on another real note: YOUR ART BLOCK DAYS ARE BETTER THAN MY INSPO DAYS YOU ARE VERY TALENTED AND WE ALL LOVE TO WATCH YOUR PROCESS! ❤️
I am foaming at the mouth over Bird's design, 10/10
honestly, i admire how you share your struggles. i tend to idealize artists that i look up to, so it helps me come back down to reality and realize that everybody is human and we can all struggle in so many ways. im really hard on myself regarding my art journey, so it just helps to see that even artists i think are amazing and perfect also struggle in ways i find myself struggling. i love these videos and your art style
I have no idea id you'll read this. But the first Flowers into Fairies video was one fo the videos that made me decide to subscribe to you. It might not have been your best in your eyes, but I enjoyed it enough to follow you. So I guess it gave you at least one subscriber extra? Anyways, I think those designs are pretty still ❤
The first professor has a math precision vibe, so I think we are still missing a humanities professor. History, geopolitics, anthropology. or maybe the first one is that, so we would need a magical circles/"technology" one
0:39 its crazy how much I relate to your art journey... I learned a lot about observational drawing in College and now its so unbelievably difficult trying to draw ANYTHING without a reference
i think the name Phoenix would suit Bird SO GOOD
the designs ar so yummy tho :ЗЗЗ
Omg I need to draw specter right now omg he’s so cool I need to inject his character design into my blood stream ＿|￣|○
Before we even got through the first character drawing I was yelling at the screen, "Just admit you're obsessed with the Winx club this week."
I would love to see a character based on a spider hibiscus in your style, it is one of my favorite flowers and so unique
You'd never be able to tell you have an art block, these are stunning!
THEY ALL LOOK SO GOOD TOGETHER OMG IM OBSESSED
the ghost orchid fairy's eyebrows remind me of the elves from world of warcraft!! i love how stern he looks
I would watch 50 more of these fairy flower videos!
Bird reminds me of rainbowdash, not only because of the colours but also the sporty vibe
I looooove your longer videos! ❤
Why does the Ghost Orchid fairy make me think that he's Severus Snape and Thranduil's fanchild?
Love the ✨tensions in the work place ✨
I love all four of them.
I LOVE Wisteria!!! She’s so elegant and just breathtaking 😍😍😍
you: spectre and bird dont get along-
me, immediately: maybe they should kiss…
oh my god I love these characters! it's insane how you can do all of this with artblock
OMG you're my FAVORITE RUclipsr you're art is incredible dude!
Came across this video at random, but your humor and editing in the first 3 minutes made me subscribe. Seeing the rest of the video and the designs just confirmed to me that I indeed will be going through more of your videos. Been struggling to draw for some time now, but this video inspired me to pick up the pen and get some work done.
I feel like Bird's family would joke around and brag about their powers by using rainbows as a comparison to their magical abilities. Like, I just imagine the Bird family is having dinner with some other family and Bird Dad is just like, "We go so fast, they say that when you see a rainbow it's just one of us teleporting!" And like-he's actually right about it, that's how rainbows are created lmao, but Bird *hates* it because he doesn't have that ability at all.
Your character Bird almost reminds me of an Aztec warrior with the vibrant feathers and what not. its so good.
I feel like the Fuchsia flower would be good with 4 arms 😛 When you started drawing her I thought she had 4, so that's why 😅 I think it was giving the irl ghost in the shell Geisha
10:59 you say these aren't villain designs, but I think this absolutely does work as a villain design. In an academic setting, one would not expect chains and spikes on a villain, but this pale green and white color scheme is sort of subtly deathly and he has a lot of sharp points. The character concept could also definitely be an outright villain, not just an antagonist. You know, if oh... these softer magics are more commonly practiced by women, or other cultures besides his or something like that. Oh man, ESPECIALLY with the mind-control ability.
The way i needed this video after today! Wisteria is my fav - both in terms of the flower and your beautiful design...and I fully get the "i can fix him" draw Wisteria would've had towards Bird 😅
38:21 Thank you for giving me a cool hot fairy boyfriend 😂
Violet almost looks like she could be in a Zelda game and I'm living for it
It would be cool if you did something like “turning (--) into princes/princesses”
Art blocked? Hunny, I wish this was what my art block looks like😭 love you Kira
I love how noticeable it is that you worked on facial studies beforehand, love these so much
The Fuchsia flower fairy's powers (the way you described them) reminds me of Zafrina and her sister from Twilight, the "Amazon coven"
I love all of them so much, the backgrounds too like they add so much but don't take away from the designs at all?! its so impressive. I love seeing how you view these flowers differently - I look at wisteria, for example, and see a villain - where I am from wisteria is extremely invasive, and you can see it alongside roads climbing up and choking out native trees, so hearing you describe her as a more 'go with the flow' sort of character is wild lol.
I absolutely adore Bird's design and Ghost kinda reminds me of Snape lol
Wisteria is an absolute godess! Oh my god she is so beautiful! All of their designs are absolutly gorgeous but damn Wisteria...
To do:
1. Watch Kira and I suffer because of our jobs
2. Watch Kira do her job
3. Refuse to do mine
4. Sleep
5. Watch more Kira
6. Finally do my job- Oh wait! I'm blank again.
Let's repeat!😀
I feel like every character in this video belongs in the Winx Club universe.
Also, you should draw men more often because the way you draw them 👀👀
Ooo, maybe Bird was a kind and patient authority figure to Specter’s Luna Moth sister when she made her first change and was struggling- and that adds draaaamaaa.
Or better, if Luna (Moth) skipped the school step, and is around the same age as Bird, the two met outside of school and started bonding over shared family drama and being the underdog- and the two started falling for each other. Could be Bird didn’t know whose sister she was, but I imagine he just has the audacity and isn’t letting the whole social dilemma bother him for a second.
Wysteria is simultaneously relieved and a little annoyed at how much he’s leaving her alone now. Not out of jealousy, but because she views him as a bit of a womanizer now. (Maybe he is a little, but he’s mostly needy and falls in love easy. Wisteria is too strongly independent to understand that- his anxious attachment is why the broke up)
ok wisteria is jaw-droppingly gorgeous, and she is certainly serving us the same energy as Mel from arcane...
(Specter is hot....I'm not sorry)
Ok but hear me out. Bird is a Raging bisexual. Spector and Bird? Enemies AND lovers. But like, look at Spector and tell me he's not a homosexual in some way.
Amazing work as always!!❤✨️
At first I thought the last character was going to be the head of the music department, I was getting rocker dude at first😅🤣 Still love the design ❤
And the polt twist is that Bird is the purest of blood member of their family there is, but everyone thinks otherwise and are accusing one of their parents or grandparents cheating on their partner and "poisoning" their bloodline with "commoners" blood. That's assuming that fairies reproduce the same way as most animals and have human like ideas for relationships. If those plant-based fairies are reproducing through Poland than the conspiracy is that the "commoner" somehow managed to spread their pollen where they should not be in the rest of the family especially the elders or the leading figures of it are trying to find out who that is, but secretly because social status and bulshit... And actually Bird's permanents and siblings (if they have so) are very supportive of them and loving but they can't just stand against the higher members of the family and also probably there's a risk for Bird if the elders find out they are actually pure or just it's easier for everyone if they think Bird is mixed cuz then they leave them alone and not put them under the pressure that other members of the family are 🤷
Ok I will spot now or will write a hole book about it, bayyyyyyyyyy❤
BIRD PLEASE PUT A SHIRT ON THERE ARE CHILDREN HERE!! >:0
Love these designs!! Especially Wisteria
Fuschia the flower is actually pronounced Fuk-sia. I know it sounds dumb but its true. You can call it whatever you want and it wont matter, just a gardener wanting to share xD Also stop being so hard on yourself :(
No my brain is like no i need redemption growth for Bird to show his strength T^T
Like maybe in a way where magic is neutralised for a bunch of them so he literally just is physically able to kick ass or something and protec from big bad things and the others r like :O whoa woaw look he did a thing and he's like see this is exactly why I try not to rely only on magic ya'll could've died
I know you've said you probably won't do anything super official for these characters and this extended setting, but it would make for a great tabletop setting if you were to compile it together, what with faeries having like a pop culture moment!
Here's my idea... Design couples of lovers next time. I'd love some ying yang queer or straight couples ❤❤❤
This video was amazing to watch, I love seeing all the improvement in your art and how you are getting better and better with each video you put out, it is truly inspiring. Your style in how you draw is gorgeous and it's been epic watching you grow 🥰
Wisteria is the most beautiful and my favorite flower fairy design out of all of them. And to me, she looks more like a fairy queen than a teacher in my opinion.
2:11 is that my man CALEUS?? (for my derrlict favorite webtoon..)
Spectre is giving Kael’thas Sunstrider/ World of Warcraft Blood elf vibes, the tude, the long light hair and iconic eye brows, and of course the elegant vibes
Its funny how youve made illusuionary magic directly against scientific magic, i just think that relates to real life ironically
ummm Fuchsia is so cute??? i love her design so much??? all of the designs turned out so great! (like always lol)
character idea: you should turn backroom levels/weirdcore pics into clowns or jesters!;D
36:51 i fee like Specter would be the type to listen to classical music, either that or his music taste is atrocious and he tries his best to hide it. He also reminds me of Jonathan Sims so that may be Influencing my headcannons
I feel the bird would turn out evil. The first book/books he would be all good and nice and then his true nature appears
I loved the drawings from the sketchbook from the sponsor segment 😮
Bird of paradise guy is really quite hot 😍🔥also if he's already that sexy how good does his family look 😮
Specter and wisteria give old married couple but not actually married vibes
I’m so happy I’m early!!! You’re one of my main inspirations for my art!!!!
What if you did a follow up with some funky students studying under these faculties!
