Time to yap about this design for so long, ok so uhm first
Let’s talk about the head, the head is important because for Dec’s design she has jam tears right? Basically blood tears, well unitys is alittle different, since Dec was one to inflict despair, suffering, and sorrow it’s shown out in her tears but for unity they see their targets observe what they like (mostly being snt brave) so their dough cuts apart because of the transformation becoming star shaped for the scar Copying brave, there’s also a star on their head with the colors of the elemental gaurdians because that’s the elements they can use for its tendrils, it’s also kinda intentional to ancient janitor au braves souljam and a mockery of the star in bravery hill since the star is more white in color this is more saturated, then the crown holding it is reminiscent of dec’s crown, and then the little exposed nerve it’s called for gb, it’s 2 on tuc intertwined as a shown of togetherness but always intersecting but never becoming whole like snt brave and tuc always meeting but never colliding, it’s also reminiscent of dna strands
The souljam hole you call it where Willy pulled the shard is now glowing, so yearning full smh becoming the color of the old ultimate oven, and yes those pink gradient tones are reminiscent of the oven aswell with the cracked lines becoming the same veins seen and is now confirmed to be their tendrils I thought it would be neat :) with the gradient being a reference also to the oven and how it has lighter gradients, with the souljam yearning spot being where tuc for crk yup that’s intentional, but then what’s what used to be the eye referencing? Nothing really right now I can come up with other than the souljam imo being the heart for tuc (such a yearner they need to be blown up with a nuclear missile). Then the hands I’m gonna redesigning the hands to be reminiscent of “thing” song, as in fingers like ultimate Smc design, yeah
Now for the last part, the lower chest and feet (I will talk about the slenderman esk tendrils too dw), the stomach now starting to form an oven basically on how Dec was becoming the very thing she despised a witch, now with tuc becoming the very thing gb saved them from, the oven, it’s an allegory on how I believed cookies using baking magic will become the very thing they hate or don’t like (Dec: witch, dlc: dragon, Unity: oven), and then it being in the stomach too is a reference to the fact that the stomach is the hungriest part of the body technically since it takes in food and lets out waste, taking in energy and letting out waste basically, and it’s also a reference to Smc stealing their stomach while in the oven in a way, then the shoes copy snt braves (this yearning towel smh)
now the tendrils yes they are a slenderman reference it’s also a showing of their power, spreading of shadows, it now showing on the fact that they will always have these out, perfect, they need more hands to hold its life together hopefully
anyways that’s it, it is still a wip in a way and I would like constructive criticism if you want to give pointers, I’m not the best at character design and this was a test at that
AAAAAA DESIGN TALK!!! you’re so detailed man…. i love this so much and i’ll say it every time !!! the pink of the Ultimate Ovens fire effecting its dough and the crown mimicking DECs, the star colors for the Elementals, and the shape matching AJBrave? chefs kiss absolutely peak.
also i love the oven bein in its stomach. ik it’s a ref fo SMC stealing from CRK Ulits stomach but its such a good physical pointer to its “hunger” for unity….. its so good dude
honestly i don’t see anything wrong with the design or anything that should be majorly changed!
maybe making the cape longer to match it’s usual silhouette, and seeing the oven bars through the opening to make it more creepy and severe?
i love the idea behind the star being the colors of the elementals, but i think they way you arrange the colors could be more straight forward, maybe something mimicking a faceted gemstone!!
i may doodle this design later and it’s deffo given me some ideas for what i’m doing with unity later down the line.
i absolutely love it alt this is amazing !!!
