I'm not totally sold on Diona - I think the redesign is equally as adorable as the canon design but it doesn't scream bartender to me either? It's giving more magical girl and I don't think she looks like she's from Mondstadt. Also the critique of Diona not having any blue is too funny what with Charlotte, Wriothesley, Freminet and Roasria all existing and being very much not blue lol.
same. she is so much better without the blue. its not like having to wear your visions color is a set rule.. kazuha doesnt have an inch of green on him
@@3daniku 100%, and to add onto your points here's all the characters that don't have the vision colours; Anemo(Teal) - Heizou, Sayu, Kazuha (arguments could be made for Sucrose and Venti being more blue and green than teal) Pyro - Diluc(I don't accept his hair) but a lot of them are 90% black or another colour with the smidge of red accents Electro(purple) - Razor, Beidou, Kujo, Yae Miko Cryo(Light blue) - Kaeya, Qiqi, Diona, Ganyu(purple hues), Roasria, Shenhe, Freminet, Wriothesley and Charlotte Hydro(blue) - Barbara, Childe, Kokomi(colour wise), Ayato, Candace Dendro(Green) - Tighnari, Alhaitham, Kaveh, Baizhu and Kirara Geo(Yellow) - Noelle, Gorou, Itto, Yun Jin Basically to say, some elements stick to having accent colours as the elements but A LOT of characters stray from the element colour. And even as I was making the list I was like "is that even enough ___ to be considered ok?"
i'm really happy that you drew raiden with a thicker body type! i've always kind of imagined her that way, i don't really know why, but i think it fits her character.
Yess! It makes her stand out as a more unique character as she is just a reused model for all the other reused female characters and it shows diversity (sorry if i worded this wrong im tired 😭)
Yeah, I feel like she is more of a power woman. So I can kind of imagine her a bit more buff and curvy than other characters. But… I do see why genshin decided to keep her slim, is because they want to keep her more elegant but with her design and character story powerful. But anyways, every female mommy looks like they have the same body type to yeah…
hii! love the designs, but in raiden's, the sleeves are two different lengths because ei had the short sleeves and makoto had longer ones. her current design is meant to have both her and her sister within it.
I really hate his design with a passion. Out of all the older characters his is the worst. I just hate his brown jacket sweater whatever with his bright red hair. Idk I tried to like it but I just couldn’t, same problem with zhongli but not as bad
@@2triedforthis830 real. diluc's design is just so weird. the hair stands out too much and looks bad. Zhongli's looks more, boring ig. its all the same colors, which is fine, but maybe like add more, especially since he's an archon.
I love these redesigns and your ideas! A note for future designs, the sash worn by Raiden is an obi, and they are very stiff! So they wouldnt really bend to her body shape like that ^^;; I love what you did with her stockings btw!
I love the redesigns but I also kinda wish you kept Raiden’s sleeves since the reason why they’re not the same in the first place is because one side is supposed to represent Makoto (the long sleeved side) as she wasn’t a warrior and therefore had them for traditional/ aesthetic purposes while the other side is for Ei as she needed to keep them shorter for easier movement during combat.
Great video! Just one thing, Raidens sleaves, one is short and one is long in the game and there's an explanation for this. Makoto had long sleaves and when she died while Raiden had short sleaves, she kept one short sleave for herself and one long sleave for her sister, Makoto, and it's supposed to have both her and her sister in her design. Anyways, the redesigns were amazingly done as always i just wanted to point this thing out.
I love how Raidens armor kind of looks like the Scaramouche boss with the dark base and the red and gold accents especially looking at raidens history with scaramouche! great designs!

I have never played genshin impact, doki doki literature club, or fnaf, and I have never seen any mlp movies, but all your vids are still so entertaining! You are one of my favorite creators on CZcams, I hope your channel continues to grow!
The designs were really cute! Raiden Shogun kinda looked a little wonky in my opinion because you made her body chunky but her head was small so it looked weird, other than that they look good!
As a Wanderer main, am I legally allowed to call your Raiden "mommy"? Okay but fr, I really love the designs you made! Diona looks so cute and I love her new color scheme. Raiden with more armor slaps and the headshot is SO pretty ugh! Edible. I will eat all of it.
I know no ages are canon but I feel like Diona is around 11-12, if you've done her hangout events you'll know she tries to act more adult but it comes off more as those kids who grew up too fast, which makes sense considering her story. I feel like klee is probably around the same age but is just less mature - I knew multiple girls at 10-12 y.o who acted exactly like klee did. sayu is actually older tho, she's just rlly short, but she's always mentioned as a "young woman". I think she's probably like 15-17.
I absolutely love genshin redesigns I would get hyped if you did more! You showed Yanfei as an example in the intro, as someone who as also done a Yanf redesign I would be super interested in how you would tackle it 👀
Sth that i find interesting about raiden is that, even tho i think shes one of the prettiest charackters in the game (her hair os legit eevrything to me) i kinda found it sad that she didnt have more armour? Like she looks great, but since shes supposed to be a warrior i kinda expected more armour, so i love ur design idea :D
*UWAAAHHH, I LOVE, LOVE, LOOOVVVEEE HOW YOU REDESIGNED DIONA!!! NGL, SHE LOOKS SUPER DUPER CUTER THAN HER ORIGINAL DESIGN! I’D DEFINITELY PULL FOR HER IF SHE HAD THAT DESIGN!!!! NEW SUBBIE
ahhhh they are absolutely stunning !!! your raiden redesign has to be one of the best i’ve ever seen! if you ever do more, can i please request yae miko?? im not the biggest fan of her, but i think her design has so much wasted potential, not to mention how it sexualizes shrine maidens, who are supposed to be dressed modestly :(
I personally think her dress fits her, Kitsunes are said to be seductive and mischievous. Thought yeah, I find it to be overtly sexy as well. Especially when the front skirt is very short.
@@sneakerdoodle0612 I mean she still could've very easily been seductive and mischievous without sexualizing cultural wear? Considering many fan designs have been able to do it I'm sure hoyo could've also figured something out.
YES... genshin speedpaint AND redesign video. content catered to me specifically i love this video and your redesigns!! i love diona's og design bc her color palette is so Calico(tm) to me and i love calicos but i much prefer the silhouette of the outfit you gave her, and i LOVE the raiden shogun's new hairstyle and body type and everything she's SO beautiful!! keep up the good work!!!! would love to see more of these..... 👀
When you teased this video on the ddlc redesign I wasn't really interested because I never played Genshin. Now I do and I'm OBSESSED with the character designs so I think your timing is more than perfect! I'd hope you'd make a redesign of Baizhu, as much as I love that man the colors ain't it.
love how you stayed close to the original designs. The characters are still very recognizable, and even tho i love watching re-imagining or re-designing videos, i sometimes feel like the design is completely different and you wouldnt recognize the character if the ychanged it in canon (obv wouldnt happen but ya hopefully know what i mean)
These redesigns are really good. I think you really did a good job designing Diona. Her clothes definitely captured more of her occupation, while still seeming personal to Diona
Fun fact about Ei's Sleeves!! One of her sleeves is her original sleeve before the archon war and the other is the way her sisters was before she passed! I just randomly though about this when you were talking about her sleeves....
i would honestly love to see you redesign Childe! he's one of my favorite characters and his design just..it's so plain. and boring. and not what I would expect from a hydro wielder AND a Fatui harbinger. i think you did a great job of making the raiden Shogun more intimidating and it'd be great to see something like that for childe
A big issue I personally have with Genshin Impact designs is that I feel like a lot of the details don't blend together in an easy to remember way. I think a great comparison is Dimitri from Fire Emblem and Dainslef, two characters who look very similar. When I try to imagine Dimitri in my head, I think of his eye patch, overgrown blond hair, fur cloak and black armour. When I try to imagine the details coming together, I remember how his armour has a blue cross over the chest and how his fur coat has black, white and blue layers. His design shows a lot of technical detail with the parts of the armour, but overall the actual features are quite simple. Dainslef though? Weeah. He also has blond hair of a similar length and an eye covering, and his outfit is black with a split cape, but when I think of the other details I'm kind of lost. I know there's some gold and hints of blue but I don't know where it all goes and I'm kept confused as to how the elements interact with each other. Now this isn't to say I think all Fire Emblem designs are good and Genshin designs are bad. I definitely feel physical pain looking at the Engage designs and there are some great Genshin character designs. But what I'm trying to bring across is there's so much detail that doesn't blend together well and it's hard to remember. I'm not saying that details can't be utilized on a design, but when so many secondary elenents are present it can be overwhelming. I think Lumine is probably the best designed character in terms of clarity and readability. The details on her are fairy light embroidery and the gold elements aren't too overwhelming. It's gotten to the point where I just see a blond ponytail and a knee-length white dress and immediately think of her. It's a complex render but the details are simple enough to be recognised. A really good video here on CZcams is Ross Draws's character design tutorial where he states that even for his complex detailed artstyle, it's a great idea to have a child or a non-artist try to draw your character from memory to see how well the elements integrate and how much clarity you've portrayed. And I feel so bad for any kid who's obsessed with Genshin and trying to draw the characters from memory because they're probably clutching ten different pens trying to remember what colour a character's shoulder is meanwhile the kid across from them is willing up a recognisable sailor moon in a minute.
Kazuha being anemo and having no green on him . Idk, considering how many characters there already is, and how many more there will be color-cordinating all of them to their element will start to get boring. I mean its not like a team uniform, u know?
the designs are soooo cute!!! i think for me personally i would've kept raiden's different length sleeves since they have like a connection to her lore n stuff. i absolutely
I love Raidens design, in the game and how you made her. I personally believe both of them are just gorgeous characters. I dont know why but I just love the color palate of Raiden and her outfit designs so I guess im a lil bias-
As a HUDGE diona fan/ main I loved dionas look. I think everyone can generally agree she does need to look more like a bartender besides her shaker on the back. I loved the hints of blue that you did along with her proportions. The design definitely fits her feisty personality along with her bartender look. This is honestly my favorite outfit redue of diona out of all the ones I've seen (I've seen a lot). And then of course any Raiden redesign I see is always stunning.
Honestly, i’m not a fan of the Raiden design. So much of her outfit is tied to Makoto like for example,the more pastel colors, the long flowing sleeve on her right, the lack of armor on her right, the flower in her hair, all of this belonged to Makoto and not Ei. The current design is a combination of Ei and Makoto’s outfits with more Makoto than Ei which makes sense considering the people of Inazuma don’t know about the archon change and ,while they both ruled, Makoto was officially the archon so makes sense that Raiden would resemble Makoto more than Ei. edit: Also, she doesn’t really need armor considering Ei lives in the plane of Euthymia while the Raiden Shogun it a puppet that can be rebuilt or changed
I adore how these came out!! I so wish Diona looked like your redesign, I would've defineitly leveled her to 80 if that were the case lol (Shes currently suffering at lvl 50... or was it 60-?) I honestly nearly callopsed hearing you don't really care for the color purple :'D Raiden quickly became one of my favorite characters and I use her second most to my main Kazuha hehe
THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!! The redesigns are fabulous!! (This inspires me lol) (if i had to suggest a character to resign it would probably be Chongyun probably) LOVE UR ART! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
Your art is gorgeous and I love your content :D Your rendering skills are just- RAUUGHHH i wanna eat em up. Your digital art has such a great balance in line weight and proportions, i look to your videos for inspo for my art !!!
Ok I’m so surprised to see that you picked Diona, she is SO CUTE! I absolutely adore her so much! She’s very sassy but precious at the same time. I’ve been trying to unlock her forever and I totally agree she needs a new design.
I don't really follow Genshin Impact, largely because I'm not really that interested in that type of game, but I do like your artwork and it's fun seeing you create from something you love. :) I will say, seeing the examples of the short character models, I agree that the proportions are Off. I think they were trying for a 'chibi' adjacent style to have the option for cute, child-ish characters, and it ends up balancing on an uncanny valley of "Is this an adult? Is this a child? This doesn't feel right." Probably the easiest fix would be to square off the head shape and shrink the head a smidge overall, it would feel a lot more balanced and a lot less uncanny.
Apart from the designs, which I loved, I enjoy sm the music you choose for the videos!! I got so happy when I heard the Super Mario Galaxy song at the beggining
I love that you made raiden a bit thicker! I am a bit confused with the proportions though since you made the body thicker but kept the head the same, I think it would be more accurate if her head was a bit bigger and more accurate to a thicker body type. Overall you did amasing and I love the designs you came up with!
I love the design! If you do a part 2 i would find ir fun if you did wanderer (since him and raiden are related) and i feel like you redesigning the puppet would look really good in your style! And again, I LOVE THE REDESIGNS, as a former diona main i love dionas and i love raidens body type and the armor makes it look so good! Your art style is so beautiful
i literally love love loooveee ur raiden redesign!! totally agree with the armour thing, this has happened to a few other characters i cant remember rn and like.. just why 😭
I have that exact model of Gaomon tablet, and aside from the colors being kinda wack (at least for me, idk how to fix it) and ALL the wires, i love the tablet so much and it works so well.
The draping parts on the shogun's kimono is something that i noticed is just part of inazumain style clothes along with the bows made of rope. Just wanted to say this, nothing more :)
Fun fact, im pretty sure most kimonos tend to not show the chest as much(womens kimonos) , they cover the chestwayy more (dont fully trust this though , found it on pintrest!) , but raiden isnt wearing a traditional kimono(it seems) cause even her original design shows nore than traditional kimonos ive seen!(design is still pretty!!)
genshin character designs tend to be a bit of a mixed bag for me. the characters have really great ouffits across the board and their colour schemes are consistently a treat. even colours i don't like. ... but man, the proportions always look so cutesy, soft, young, and skinny. even characters like raiden look a little too soft for me. i always like seeing fan artists with different styles try a hand at redesigning and i think you did well! i will ALWAYS imagine raiden with a lil beef!
ANOTHER AMAZING REDESIGN!!!!!! Defo love Raiden design - MY FAVOURITE!!! It looks amazing and she defo feels more like a warrior! I feel like Diona could had a tie of something a bit more suit like as she's a bar tender - but i LOVE HOW CUTE YOU MADE HERRRR AHAHAHA!!!! Love your vidssssss, can't wait for the next one!!!!
I’ve never played Genshin Impact and I’m certainly not familiar with the characters, buuut I’ve seen a couple of characters from the game and I believe that their designs are really nice! However, I REALLY love these designs and how creative you were with these. I loved the shorter character and how you made her look like a short adult rather than a 12 year old, and I love Raiden’s body type and armor!! The red and gold accents are very nice and add a great variety to her design. Amazing job, and it’s great to see you again!! 💕💕
As soon as i saw diona in the Thumbnail i clicked, i Love diona and its Not often that i See her anywhere else. Also great coincidence that i found this on the 18th january, Dionas birthay :D
i really love the redesigns you made for these characters! i also rly love the genshin designs :D ur art style is rly cool too, maybe u could make an art process someday??
I’m not sure about the armor for Raiden as she legit put a doll of herself and locked herself in a room. Also it’s kinda funny imagining her cooped up in a dark room eating anything sugary while wearing armor 💀. Honestly I think it’s just my biases I don’t really like armor (Sorry Gepard). It’s kinda regal but if there’s a fight you’re half prepared. I don’t imagine her as a more Beidou type character because we all agree that that design is incredibly similar to Beidou.
these are wonderful!! as a fellow diona fan i actually really disliked her when she first released just because of her design, and though i've warmed up to it now i love ur redesign for her SO much!! if youre considering making a sequel to this, i would LOVEE to see u redesign nahida or faruzan :3
I'm not totally sold on Diona - I think the redesign is equally as adorable as the canon design but it doesn't scream bartender to me either? It's giving more magical girl and I don't think she looks like she's from Mondstadt. Also the critique of Diona not having any blue is too funny what with Charlotte, Wriothesley, Freminet and Roasria all existing and being very much not blue lol.
I wanted to add on this to say that in the redesign she doesn't look the type to go find her new gross ingredients for her drinks.
same. she is so much better without the blue. its not like having to wear your visions color is a set rule.. kazuha doesnt have an inch of green on him
@@3daniku 100%, and to add onto your points here's all the characters that don't have the vision colours;
Anemo(Teal) - Heizou, Sayu, Kazuha (arguments could be made for Sucrose and Venti being more blue and green than teal)
Pyro - Diluc(I don't accept his hair) but a lot of them are 90% black or another colour with the smidge of red accents
Electro(purple) - Razor, Beidou, Kujo, Yae Miko
Cryo(Light blue) - Kaeya, Qiqi, Diona, Ganyu(purple hues), Roasria, Shenhe, Freminet, Wriothesley and Charlotte
Hydro(blue) - Barbara, Childe, Kokomi(colour wise), Ayato, Candace
Dendro(Green) - Tighnari, Alhaitham, Kaveh, Baizhu and Kirara
Geo(Yellow) - Noelle, Gorou, Itto, Yun Jin
Basically to say, some elements stick to having accent colours as the elements but A LOT of characters stray from the element colour. And even as I was making the list I was like "is that even enough ___ to be considered ok?"
i'm really happy that you drew raiden with a thicker body type! i've always kind of imagined her that way, i don't really know why, but i think it fits her character.
Buff electro GOD? Best way to describe it in my head, I feel like Beidou would have a slightly thicker body type too
@@NattIsHere4 omg i thought that too
Yess! It makes her stand out as a more unique character as she is just a reused model for all the other reused female characters and it shows diversity (sorry if i worded this wrong im tired 😭)

It is so amazing 🥰🥰 I think the character who needs a redesign the most is Diluc, I don't know if you draw guys but it might be cool
I agree I also remember them saying they mostly drew guys before or something like that.
yes Diluc deserve Wrio's cake
I really hate his design with a passion. Out of all the older characters his is the worst. I just hate his brown jacket sweater whatever with his bright red hair. Idk I tried to like it but I just couldn’t, same problem with zhongli but not as bad

The obi wraps around the waist so if Raiden had a more curvy waist it would push in (I THINK?)
@@domidemi.you would think so but there are so many layers under an obi and the fabric is soo thick that it would just be stiff straight
@@p3anutbutt3rtoast11 OHHH that makes more sense
Wow! Thank you for the insight! Thats really important (and interesting) input for character design!!
For the Diona redesign, you could also make the collar a cat by placing 2 buttons either side of the hole to resemble eyes.
As soon as i saw diona in the thumbnail i got super excited she’s my fav chara and glad she’s getting a redesign by such a good artist

I feel like the short characters look younger than they are, like Diona acts older than Klee and it feels strange same with Sayu.
If I wasn’t lied to that’s probably because diona is the oldest out of the two buttt diona does not act that mature lol.
I know no ages are canon but I feel like Diona is around 11-12, if you've done her hangout events you'll know she tries to act more adult but it comes off more as those kids who grew up too fast, which makes sense considering her story.

sayu is actually older tho, she's just rlly short, but she's always mentioned as a "young woman". I think she's probably like 15-17.
Its just a stylistic choice which imo works well, it doesn’t feel strange to me

Idk, considering how many characters there already is, and how many more there will be color-cordinating all of them to their element will start to get boring. I mean its not like a team uniform, u know?
the designs are soooo cute!!! i think for me personally i would've kept raiden's different length sleeves since they have like a connection to her lore n stuff. i absolutely
I love these redesigns! Especially Diona's one, it makes me like her more lol
I love raidens so much but i think keeping the long sleeve would look cool it would look pretty flowing in the wind
i was looking for something to watch in the background while drawing :D i love ur art and your channel helps give me inspo when artblocked
Aahh i love this so much!😍 You did a great job!
I love Raidens design, in the game and how you made her. I personally believe both of them are just gorgeous characters. I dont know why but I just love the color palate of Raiden and her outfit designs so I guess im a lil bias-
As a HUDGE diona fan/ main I loved dionas look. I think everyone can generally agree she does need to look more like a bartender besides her shaker on the back. I loved the hints of blue that you did along with her proportions. The design definitely fits her feisty personality along with her bartender look. This is honestly my favorite outfit redue of diona out of all the ones I've seen (I've seen a lot). And then of course any Raiden redesign I see is always stunning.
Honestly, i’m not a fan of the Raiden design.
So much of her outfit is tied to Makoto like for example,the more pastel colors, the long flowing sleeve on her right, the lack of armor on her right, the flower in her hair, all of this belonged to Makoto and not Ei. The current design is a combination of Ei and Makoto’s outfits with more Makoto than Ei which makes sense considering the people of Inazuma don’t know about the archon change and ,while they both ruled, Makoto was officially the archon so makes sense that Raiden would resemble Makoto more than Ei.
edit: Also, she doesn’t really need armor considering Ei lives in the plane of Euthymia while the Raiden Shogun it a puppet that can be rebuilt or changed
I love Ei so much and I really like the changes you made to her design! The darker palette really fits her as Makoto’s “shadow”
I adore how these came out!! I so wish Diona looked like your redesign, I would've defineitly leveled her to 80 if that were the case lol (Shes currently suffering at lvl 50... or was it 60-?)
I honestly nearly callopsed hearing you don't really care for the color purple :'D Raiden quickly became one of my favorite characters and I use her second most to my main Kazuha hehe
THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!! The redesigns are fabulous!! (This inspires me lol) (if i had to suggest a character to resign it would probably be Chongyun probably) LOVE UR ART! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
Let’s go! More inkiio ^-^
I’m excited about the fact that I’m excited when you upload lol
the diona one is SO CUTE i hope when she gets her free outfir in an event thgat its the 1 u made>>
You made them look way better !!! 👍
Babe wake up, new inkiio video just dropped
I actually have a Diona cosplay and I really love your redesign
Love the redesign of the characters and your art. 💙💙💙
I am obsessed with your raiden redesign! I love how you gave her more armour and a different body type! It was a breath of fresh air In in love!!!
I’ve literally never playing Genshin Impact BUT because this is Inkiio, I watched the video
Your art is gorgeous and I love your content :D Your rendering skills are just- RAUUGHHH i wanna eat em up. Your digital art has such a great balance in line weight and proportions, i look to your videos for inspo for my art !!!
Ok I’m so surprised to see that you picked Diona, she is SO CUTE! I absolutely adore her so much! She’s very sassy but precious at the same time. I’ve been trying to unlock her forever and I totally agree she needs a new design.
A Video Sponsored by the tablet I already have?! Nice!!!! Also, The art is amazing, as always, lmao
These are really cool!!! I can't wait to see what you have next!!
I don't really follow Genshin Impact, largely because I'm not really that interested in that type of game, but I do like your artwork and it's fun seeing you create from something you love. :)
I will say, seeing the examples of the short character models, I agree that the proportions are Off. I think they were trying for a 'chibi' adjacent style to have the option for cute, child-ish characters, and it ends up balancing on an uncanny valley of "Is this an adult? Is this a child? This doesn't feel right."
Probably the easiest fix would be to square off the head shape and shrink the head a smidge overall, it would feel a lot more balanced and a lot less uncanny.
these drawings are awesome! ❤
Apart from the designs, which I loved, I enjoy sm the music you choose for the videos!! I got so happy when I heard the Super Mario Galaxy song at the beggining
I love that you made raiden a bit thicker! I am a bit confused with the proportions though since you made the body thicker but kept the head the same, I think it would be more accurate if her head was a bit bigger and more accurate to a thicker body type. Overall you did amasing and I love the designs you came up with!
I think it’s their art style I’ve seen a couple of videos from them and its always small head
I love the design! If you do a part 2 i would find ir fun if you did wanderer (since him and raiden are related) and i feel like you redesigning the puppet would look really good in your style! And again, I LOVE THE REDESIGNS, as a former diona main i love dionas and i love raidens body type and the armor makes it look so good! Your art style is so beautiful
It’s really good, but Raiden Shogun had a long sleeve for Makoto
i literally love love loooveee ur raiden redesign!! totally agree with the armour thing, this has happened to a few other characters i cant remember rn and like.. just why 😭
amazing redesigns, i love your raiden
PLEASEEE DO YAE MIKO!! SHE NEEDS A COMFY OUTFIT!! 💗💗
I would love to see more Genshin redesigns, you did such an amazing job at it!!
i know nothing about genshin and ive never once been interested in it but i really loved this video!!
STOPP I LOVE THESE REDESIGNS SM
I rlly like your diona´s design
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE TURN IT UPPP
I love it when people draw Diona with vitiligo, it fits the fur patterns. But I forgot who specifically drew her like this 😢
I have that exact model of Gaomon tablet, and aside from the colors being kinda wack (at least for me, idk how to fix it) and ALL the wires, i love the tablet so much and it works so well.
I LOVE YOUR OC/PERSONA OMG
I love the raiden design but I think her head looks very tiny so you probably should have made her head a lil bigger lol
these are so good! i'd love to see you redesign more characters
The draping parts on the shogun's kimono is something that i noticed is just part of inazumain style clothes along with the bows made of rope. Just wanted to say this, nothing more :)
Fun fact, im pretty sure most kimonos tend to not show the chest as much(womens kimonos) , they cover the chestwayy more (dont fully trust this though , found it on pintrest!) , but raiden isnt wearing a traditional kimono(it seems) cause even her original design shows nore than traditional kimonos ive seen!(design is still pretty!!)
genshin character designs tend to be a bit of a mixed bag for me. the characters have really great ouffits across the board and their colour schemes are consistently a treat. even colours i don't like. ... but man, the proportions always look so cutesy, soft, young, and skinny. even characters like raiden look a little too soft for me.
i always like seeing fan artists with different styles try a hand at redesigning and i think you did well! i will ALWAYS imagine raiden with a lil beef!
ANOTHER AMAZING REDESIGN!!!!!! Defo love Raiden design - MY FAVOURITE!!! It looks amazing and she defo feels more like a warrior! I feel like Diona could had a tie of something a bit more suit like as she's a bar tender - but i LOVE HOW CUTE YOU MADE HERRRR AHAHAHA!!!! Love your vidssssss, can't wait for the next one!!!!
I’ve never played Genshin Impact and I’m certainly not familiar with the characters, buuut I’ve seen a couple of characters from the game and I believe that their designs are really nice! However, I REALLY love these designs and how creative you were with these. I loved the shorter character and how you made her look like a short adult rather than a 12 year old, and I love Raiden’s body type and armor!! The red and gold accents are very nice and add a great variety to her design. Amazing job, and it’s great to see you again!! 💕💕
I agree! But just so yk diona (the short one) is around 12 years old. She is a bartender who can't drink lol
diona was acutally so cute
oh gee i haven’t been able to watch for for A WHILE. your character is different wowee!!! !!!
As soon as i saw diona in the Thumbnail i clicked, i Love diona and its Not often that i See her anywhere else. Also great coincidence that i found this on the 18th january, Dionas birthay :D
I loved this video and the redesigns! I hope you do more of these ❤❤❤❤
I like your new art style!
Love both the redesigns and can’t wait to see more
ADORABLE!! makes me wanna play 👀
Quickly becoming obsessed with the art style! Fiona was never my favourite character but i love your redesigns! they are great!!!
Your Diona redesign is so sylveon coded and I love it so so so much😭💕🫂
i really love the redesigns you made for these characters! i also rly love the genshin designs :D ur art style is rly cool too, maybe u could make an art process someday??
I’m not sure about the armor for Raiden as she legit put a doll of herself and locked herself in a room. Also it’s kinda funny imagining her cooped up in a dark room eating anything sugary while wearing armor 💀. Honestly I think it’s just my biases I don’t really like armor (Sorry Gepard). It’s kinda regal but if there’s a fight you’re half prepared. I don’t imagine her as a more Beidou type character because we all agree that that design is incredibly similar to Beidou.
your raiden redesign is amazing! but I think her hair is a little too similar to shenhe's hair, so I would've kept the original bangs.
AS A RAIDEN LOVER AND MAIN, I APPROVE
these are wonderful!! as a fellow diona fan i actually really disliked her when she first released just because of her design, and though i've warmed up to it now i love ur redesign for her SO much!! if youre considering making a sequel to this, i would LOVEE to see u redesign nahida or faruzan :3
YAAAAYY IT FINALLY CAME OUT LET'S GOO
Love from Brazil :D
