Redesigned Mina and Amy

First request made! This idea came from @somewhereovrtherainbow ! Thank you so much for the super sweet idea of Knuckles and Sonic comforting Tails during a thunderstorm 🥺 I decided to have them put on a performance for their little brother, as a distraction.

Redesigned my daughter

I don’t dislike her canon designs, I think they work for their intended purpose, but I wanted to try my hand at it. And today is my break so why no spend it on Marinette?

I self imposed the rule that the redesign has to be animation appropriate. I dislike how all the outfits in canon are skin tight, but it’s understandable since it’s in 3D. Clothing folds are the devil in animation. So in theory both redesigns could be used in the show!

These designs may or may not be for a series rewrite I might be working on. Maybe.

First of all I darkened her features. Black hair and brown eyes to resemble her mother more. It’s such a shame that her Chinese heritage is barely visible, and a travesty that a white boy is teaching her Mandarin. I’m disgusted.

I love Marinette in pink, so I kept that, mainly reversing where her colours go. An embroidered pair of dungarees should also show she’s a creative sewer. I added a couple little easter eggs in the embroidery. 

My main problem with the Ladybug suit is that it looks like a second skin. Chat Noir’s suit is segmented and has thicker parts that aren’t skin tight, allowing it to look like a proper suit. Ladybug’s catsuit has no definition, and thus looks lackluster compared to Chat’s. This goes for all of her superhero suits. No definition. So that’s what I added. More layers and texture. Separate gloves and boots, and some wings that also pass for a cape! These will probably change in the future, I want her to have wings like a real ladybug, so the cape lifts up to reveal her real wings underneath. It’s a crime that Ladybug can’t fly. Can you imagine an air battle between Ladybug and Hawkmoth? Yes please!

Re-redesigned Marinette

After some fantastic critiques on my last attempt, here’s a revamped version of my Marinette redesign.

I was unsatisfied with the wings and her face. The wings were just a bit too long, and I got lazy with the details. There’s meant to be a set of wings under the cape, mimicking real ladybug wings. I imagine the animation could be cool with the “double” wings.

I also modified the suit, mainly trying out a different way to stop the “second skin” look. I also wanted to draw attention away from her butt, that’s just ew.
