When we were designing Bayonetta, our clients requested us to take off her glasses, and it's true that I kept rejecting their proposals,

I've been a passionate creator of monsters and otherworldly beings since I was old enough to pick up a crayon. While I'm a mild-mannered graphic designer by day, I explore the worlds of darker creatures by night. For many years, I thought my art had to look like everyone else's to be successful. I started by colouring at Image Comics in the 1990s and went almost exclusively into comic-based digital work for many years after.

The other four designs each highlight a specific character: Kenny, Cartman, Randy Marsh, and Towelie, complete with details that throw back to moments from the show. The Randy Marsh Classic Clog finds Stan's dad dressed in his geologist uniform, with Jibbitz charms that callback to such moments as his "I thought this was America!" quote from "The Losing Edge" episode, and his transformation into a butterfly in the Inception parody, "Insheeption."

Over his career, Yo Moriyama has mainly been known for producing concept artwork and prop designs for shows such as Bubble and Lupin the Third: Goemon's Blood Spray, but he has also been developing a reputation for crafting character designs. That was the skill set he required for the Netflix anime series Sakamoto Days. Based on the manga created by Yuto Suzuki, the adaptation is animated by TMS Entertainment and directed by Masaki Watanabe.

Wuyang is designed to support players by creating opportunities rather than relying solely on healing, with the ultimate ability, Tidal Blast, enabling strategic plays.

Amon is a tragic warrior with a surprisingly tender side, who was raised in a Vault monster-worshipping cult and dedicated his life to slaying beasts.

Miary Zo is said to hail from Madagascar and practices a combat style that blends traditional Moraingy with other African fighting disciplines.

In celebration of The Jim Henson Company's 70th anniversary, the Monster Cereal collab features puppet makeovers of three iconic mascots - Boo Berry, Franken Berry and Count Chocula.

"When I'm not in-person at an anime studio helping out with their projects, this is where I do most of my work," Linnea explains. "My partner Bellamy and I have our work desks together, mine is on the left and hers is on the right."

"In Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, players can unlock various outfits and hairstyles for Sciel, enhancing both gameplay and personal style throughout their journey."

Nightreign players have transformed the Revenant class into 'La Creatura,' a feral gremlin wielding massive weapons and embodying chaos within the game.

Waluigi's quirky flexibility shines through in his unconventional approach to hitting Coin Blocks, showcasing his unique character traits that defy traditional game mechanics.

"I know ppl are going to throw tomatoes but stripping drag/transness from Pleakley really fucking sucks. I imagine for a lot of millennials Pleakley was probably the healthiest portrayal of transness we got to see as kids in any show."

In a recent discussion about the Lilo & Stitch live-action remake, director Dean Fleischer Camp addressed fan concerns over character changes, particularly regarding Pleakley.

"I imagine her favourite food would be cherries."

In the Grand Theft Auto VI trailer, main character Jason impressively benches 275 pounds, showcasing his impressive physique and good form, despite lacking a spotter.

"We're not using physically based rendering (PBR)," begins Adam, referring to a now-standard lighting and texturing technique in modern games. Instead, Guild Wars 2 leans into a hand-painted art style that has become a hallmark of its aesthetic identity."

When I start my work, I first close my eyes and collect all of my ideas from every perspective, then work on it.
