This character is based on a rosy maple moth! They will have a dual identity with orchid mantis!

This has a limited colour palette! I want to let this have only pink, yellow, and white if I can (and shades of those colors). Despite the chosen palette of mostly bright colours, Eichi tells me the WIPs I show them make this look like a villain-aligned character...

25 September - I consider leaning a bit into the villain aspect

Fuzzy scarf to reference the moth's fuzzy legs! I didn't like the turtleneck and tucked in shirt with the sneaker shoes in the initial sketch so changed everything. I might still change a lot of things in this design! I'm just messing around
