Merry Christmas !! When I saw her design and skill I couldn't help but think of Cloud Retainer / Xinyun. Small headcanon could be that she plays to the adepti at Mt. Aozang because she is too shy to do it in Liyue Harbor. Maybe she got inspired by Cloud Retainer in some way? Also fun because Yun-Jin and Shenhe are technically friends and Shenhe's master is Cloud Retainer. Either way her design is super cute! I love the pops of red!! If you want to make it more detailed I would try to maybe add more of the red bows and ropes? Maybe on her shoes or on her skirt? Generally more patterns that could fit her aesthetic could be put on her leggings or skirt :)
Thank you! Ooooh I hadn't thought about the resemblance between her and Cloud Retainer! Love the headcanons! ☺ Oh, good idea, thank you! Still not sure if I will actually rework her design, but I'm noting that down just in case 👀
Aaaw she's cute ! But yeah you already pointed out that she could use some more details. Maybe some sort of slice in her skirt, a lot of Liyue characters have that, or a more complex cloak, maybe the line from shoulders to end of the wings is a little too much round and linear ? Same with her shoes, but hey, if you need more feedback anyway you know where to find me Sis' ! :') But I really want to emphatize that I love the production value on this one, for example the frame around Kazuha or other details like the pillagers art for her sparrow attack ! Your graphic ambiance gets stronger and stronger with each release, keep up the good work ! ^v^
Thanks bro!🥰I don't know if she'll ever get that second design pass, but I definitely would change her skirt and shoes. I feel like they're the two things that are really lacking. Thank yooou! I'm really enjoying making videos and trying to up the production value. Thanks for the support and comments 🥺💕💜
So I just finished binging your whole series. I'm in love with the Mikus, but it switched me into art brain, so I want to give like actual feedback. In a vacuum, I love this cryo Miku. Doesn't hit the same as the Sumeru geo (I want a sandbender so badly), but she's super cute, actually plays music, and I love the bounce skill. Your kit sketches are fantastic. I also love seeing you put in the extra effort for research into the various parts. She'd probably be one of my mains. I'd want her in a Project Diva game as well. I know like 6 songs I'd want to see her perform in. I could even see her as a Snow Miku 20XX design. But I think cryo Miku needs another pass from the ground-up. Not now, but in a year or so. After you've finished this series and decide to come back with a fresh mind etc. At least a few months from now. (Maybe after we get more Snezhnaya stuff so you can see if you should revisit Pyro Miku as well, but she's super solid already). My reasoning overall: because of Shenhe, Lanyan, Citlali's existences. Catalyst swallow theme Liyue character is too close overall to Lanyan who also jumps into the air. Shenhe is already cryo bird lady. Citlali might have the shield and shred instead, but she's still a floaty cryo themed catalyst. The vast majority of aerial or bird characters are specifically anemo unless given good reason. So kit wise this Miku reads as anemo. But in her clothing, her deep blues and the "cloud" decal on her skirt that mimics Yanfei give her a strong hydro look. Almost like she's a musician Beidou picked up onto her crew. So she's got an anemo kit, hydro outfit, but is supposed to be cryo. Plus, I'm really curious how she's suppressing internal trauma like other cryo characters (Anemo units have the "dead friend" meme, but they go out and do community service to channel their drama afterwards. Cryo units love so hard they kind of close off a corner of themselves. They're foils). And you don't have to give her the same frosty blue look as Shenhe, Ganyu and Chongyun. A lot of cryo units are atypically colored. I can't see a punk-goth Liyue character that mimics Rosaria or Wriostheley, but Qiqi/Citlali are purple while Layla, Mika, and Freminet are deeper blues, while Charlotte and Diona look nothing like a cryo unit initially. You have plenty of room to mess around with color. I really think when you lock in, the designs are coming out solid, but this Miku feels very confused within a Genshin design space, no matter how much I otherwise like her. Plus, you still need to do the proper anemo Miku.
Thank you for the feedback! I definitely would've pushed this video to the back of the line and completely redone her if I'd found out about Lan Yan earlier. I don't really seek out or look at leaks so I was kinda doomed from the start. (-﹏- ;🐠) I'll admit my thoughts on Cryo Miku are a lot more negative than I let on.😅I was very surprised people actually liked her as much as they did. I don't know if I'll revisit the Miku designs, but if I do, they will probably only get a design and splash art update.
1:50 cryo catalyst users yeahhh >:D citlali throws pillows and plushies at her enemies for her attack animations :3 (And Wriothesley is pronounced 'wisely' :3)
That is definitely not what I expected her to do considering her personality and lore 😅 But at least it's consistent with the whole cryo catalyst narrative 😎 (I ended up looking it up and pronouncing it correctly, but I found me fumbling his name way funnier so I kept my bad takes in haha)
woooooow I would so pull for her! amazing design as always, I love this series and can't wait to see how she looks next! Merry christmas and happy holidays!
I love this design! Tho i feel like miku's flute could be used as her polearm or spear, liyue does have many spear characters so maybe somehow you can incorporate the flute in her burst and have her sword or chosen weapon somehow simaller to a flute
For me she feels like Lan Yan's Sister! Like looks ( I think they are similar and different at the same time!) and gameplay! She's really cute and I would love her to be in the game and be connected some way to Lan Yan! She gives of a star vibe and bet The next lantern rite would be were she's gets to join the Yun Han opera troupe! and also she looks like also she can become one of Cloud Retainers disables! I Cant wait for Dendro Miku! I bet she will look so cute! by the way happy 2025! I saw this at new years day and was really happy to see your new videos! Love your videos and your art style is so cute! keep it up! I love the videos you make!💗
Thank you for your super sweet comment and happy new year! ☺I'll admit I don't know anything about Lan Yan since I don't really look at leaks, but the idea of them being siblings is really cute! I hope you'll like Dendro Miku when she finally makes her appearance!
@Mikkidoodles oh j'avoue elle aurait un sort qui activer une forme où tout le long la musique serait joué pendant cette attaque 🤩 Vous êtes trop intelligente madame 🤭✨✨
hi! So, i have thought about starting an art channel before. and i want to know, do you have the little version of you pre-draw? or do you draw it for every video specifically?
Hey! So, I pre-drew most of my sprites after writing the script for my first video, since that gave me a good idea of what I needed, and added a few more after recording my voice, to match some of my intonations. Since it was the first video, I had most of the basic sprites in there and I could reuse them for future episodes. I like to add a few more sprites for specific moments in episodes, but it's not really needed. All of the major sprites come from the first episode, and the rest is just bonus stuff. I'd say, draw sprites for major expressions you think you need (happy, talking poses, sad, angry, yelling, crying, laughing, etc.) and you should be good with those for all future content. Don't hesitate to watch content from artists you like to inspire you! It'll help you decide what you want to lean towards. Best of luck!
Predicting character themes when creating new designs is literally the bane of my existance It's funny the first time, but when you plan your sona manticore inspo for cons and then Dehya gets leaked - real not fun
Oops, I wanted to watch this video the day it was posted but I was busy and then I just forgot.. As usual it turned out great! I envy your creativity! (╥﹏╥۵) Ah.. By the way, will you draw other Cryptons later?
Thanks so much for your support! I'm grateful you took the time to watch my stuff so please don't feel guilty 🥺 Do not be fooled, this creativity is hours of staring at a blank page and Pinterest boards!!! ᕦ( ᴼ v ᴼ 🐠 )ᕤ Sorry, what do you mean by Cryptons?
@@миииц Ooops missed your reply, sorry! Ah, okay! I don't know yet if I will, but they probably would only get a single design each to mimic what they did for Project Voltage (and also because I don't think I have the courage to make 7 designs for all of them (ΘεΘ ;🐠) )
She definetely would be featured in the lantern rite event. She looks so cute!
Thank yooou! You're so right, I can picture the storyline so clearly haha!
I love her design! I wonder how good she'd be for a freeze team with someone like Xingqiu or maybe a melt team with Xiangling? :o
Thank you! Oh man, I didn't think about team compositions, but she'd probably work super well in a freeze team.
lan yan and faruzan together is LITERALLY pure miku. besides, we know who came first, our queen, MIKU!
I love seeing black creators in this fandom! This is really beautiful and such a cute, fun design and concept. Excited to see more from you!
Thank you for the support! I hope you'll enjoy the rest of the series! ☺
fun fact: the "mi" in mihoyo means hatsune miku.
mikuhoyo
OMG! I see that you put a lot of thought into the design and work into art, I would definitely roll for her. Keep up with the great job!
Merry Christmas !!

U deserve SO much more views and subs, i love LOVE *LOVE* ur style
Thank you! 🥺💕
this one is actually my favorite one of the miku's!
Lol there's two catalyst mikus now, i wonder if you'll draw a sword or claymore miku in the future? :D
Yeah, the randomizer decided I needed two catalysts haha! But no worries, there'll be a sword and a claymore! I want at least one of each weapon ^^
This absolutely amazing! Your designs are always so unique! Waiting for the next part!
Thank yooou! (☆^ u ^☆🐠)
Oh my gosh, this girl should get some subs.
Immediately subbed, for one dang the quality and effor is sooo high
