Mellow
2022-02-01 10:20:30 UTC i swear to fucking god im never satisfied with this bastard
Okay, so this is my concept design for the Ultimate Mellow. He’s sorta meant to be the thing that links all iterations of this red jester. Classical Mellow (aka the precursor to the current one) captured the general cuddly vibe I want and have with my characters. Melody Remix Mellow captured the energy and adventurousness of his character pretty well too, as well as carrying on with the cuter standard set by the previous version. The thing they both lack though, is that real flamboyant feel. As in, the concept of Mellow being a theatre kid reject fully flowing through him. Yeah, some may disagree and say that he has that, but I honestly feel that if something is there, it’s incredibly lacking. There’s also the fact that more recent characters use better and newer techniques that sorta just thwart Mellow completely. This is also meant to address that, and make my child all new and shiny again. MR-Mellow is 3 months old at this point, and I’ve progressed a lot during then (I’ll also continue to do so beyond you musty bitches lmao so HEE HEE HEE HAW), so I don’t think a touch up is too far for a decision.
This Mellow concept might not be too hard to recreate, but I know the hood will give me trouble though. I can do this though, and I’ve achieved a lot already.
The Ultimate Melody is coming.(knowing me this’ll fucking barely be the ultimate mellow in like 2 months lmfao)

Also, I might switch up the hammer and cards for an anchor. Funny hammer and cards is funny but go watch a 5ft 10 twink lob an anchor at some poor homeless kid and maybe then will you’ll find true comedy
Plus he lives on a flying sci-fi pirate ship, it works
Might also ditch the flight mode of the bike and give Mellow and Medley a personal one seat aircraft that they share
Where will the other sit? On the wing of course
Nah, the cards will stay, the hammer might not though
I guess this is also acts as a way to bring out the more androgynous side that Mellow used to have more of
Every man has is femininity, and Mellow’s sorta supposed to embrace that
as i was reading this my eyes glanced at “HEE HEE HAW”
“Is this dude ok-“
Remember who you’re talking to
no
fuck y-
what was the original source of inspiration for this dude or did you just pull all these seemingly random elements for face/body/clothes out ur butt
It’s a long story lol. Put simply, Mellow was originally based on a shy guy, just being a lankier version of one with extra elements.
Then I looked at Spark the Electric Jester and thought “wow he’s cool”, and I’ve just been taking elements from the franchise in all aspects since then
The Shy Guy element has been lost for a while now, but the colour pallette hasn’t been changed too much
Spark has been my largest inspiration, larger than any others
I think you can tell how and why
