#avoid me 1

SO !

I saw this reel a while ago on Instagram. That was the fist time I saw this little animation, and I loved it. It's so simple yet their movement and their comically big pants stuck with me.

Also I like Phonk music so... It stuck with me too X)

I liked is so mush in fact I wanted to make OCs off of it.

It's been a while since I had made and "original" OC, outside of an already existing fandom so I thought I'd really need that.

So I started sketching:

I knew I wanted to make two, one for each version of the music. I waned them to "represent" the version if you will. (I obviously took the color scheme of the covers for the final design)

I also wanted to include the big pants of the little stickman animation. (BTW this is the original)

I thought of them as friend at first but a friend referred to them as brothers and the idea of dumb brother rivalry/copying each other was way more fun.

As I wanted to take inspiration from the music in the video I searched them on YouTube and discovered... there is a third version !

So who knows maybe I'll draw their third long lost brother one day X)

(Here are all three versions if you're curious)

And the final designs :)

I'm really happy with them, I especially love 2's little ushanka/cap and pom-poms X) And the ponytail !!!

I went for kind of a "cold" vs "hot" or the clothing styles. Avoid me 2 sounded "colder" to me, I don't know how to explain it.

I love that you can see they clearly have different personalities (yet strangely similar) just by their facial expressions. If you see what I mean.

Also I keep refering to them as "1" and "2". They don't really have names. I never really tried giving them any but if you have any ideas feel free to tell me.

I love how 2 looks absolutely stoned even tho he's not. He's just... not here.

Also, It didn't make sens to me to make 2 the oldest since, you know, 2 comes after 1 lol, but 1 looks too much like the little bro who's always screaming for no reason.
