Description

Playing around with Mighty designs, like how I did with Ray:

Obviously, I'm not redesigning Mighty nearly as much as Ray, but I still wanted to change up some of the details. I was really starting to hate the version I did for Bunch of Armadillos 2 and just wanted to try something else.

1 - Original Chaotix artwork colors. Looks fugly as hell when I try to do it. I'm pretty sure the Archie comics always show him with the yellow skin and bright red shell, too, come to think of it.

2 - Previous design from Bunch of Armadillos 2. I'm really not sure what I was thinking with some of the gear I threw at him. I mean, it looks okay, but it's so totally unnecessary and wouldn't really fit a game design. And as partial as I am to that vest, it really doesn't make sense of how he gets it on. (No, I choose not to accept that his shell is removable, even if it's canon. IRL armadillos can't do that and it's creepy.)

3 - This was actually the first one I worked on, so in comparison the colors look really pale and grim. I do like the super light-blue eyes, tho'.

4 - Took a step back and tried to simplify everything, get rid of everything that wasn't necessary, and brighten up the colors. I liked this one better, but he didn't have enough "weight" to him. Definitely looks more speed than power. And the eyes are too dark.

5 - Took all of my favorite pieces from the other designs and threw them together. I think I like this one the best. Idk, my opinion towards it is not as strong as my opinion was towards the Ray design I liked the best, so maybe that's an indication that it still needs more work.

And then a bunch of eye colors that I wanted to try. I'm pretty happy with the blue, but you never know if you'll find something you like better if you don't try other options. I'll be sticking to blue, but I admit I like the bottom three and the lavender one at the top.

One day I'll stop just designing things and draw actual pictures... but not today! :dummy:
