hi! im curious on any fun design details for deep diver!! idk how to ask this. like.. fun facts regarding her? i dunno im curious on how u went about it!

i cant remember if i talked about her before, so here is what i do remember.... she was fairly straightforward for me to design, pretty much just a cartoon take on old diving suits, but my most awesome fact about her are the other things i was inspired by for her design

beyond the obvious, i remember being inspired by dennis from spongebob… maaaybe it comes off in personality..? (when i say personality, i mean visual personality which is different from how she may be written, i didnt do anything for her on the writing side)

the other inspirations were treasure knight from shovel knight, anglerfish, and…marvin the martian… yes...i only remember this because i pulled up the pureref sheet/moodboard i made when i was designing her

in terms of process, deep diver is one of the few cogs i designed without much prior sketching, i used a lasso fill tool and blocked in shapes and colors fairly quickly 🐟⚓️
