Since people have been asking me about maybe switching up the branding of the board a bit I've been keeping it in the back of my head of what we could do. I haven't found anything myself but I think I may have found something that could work:



I adopted this character from the artist Sarybuu

They do mostly traditional artwork so that means this lady here was completely hand drawn!

Why did I opt to adopt her? I think she'd work well for Kafuka! She fits the Dark Fairy typing motif! She's an angel with demonic horns and is cute! Her color scheme is very close to the original Kafuka colors of fire so that's also gives her another connection to Kafuka. She's female so that fits this board to a tee. Lol

I don't have a name for her.. perhaps if you opt to use her as our mascot I'll maybe open up to suggestions. (I'm debating on that one still).

Don't worry if you decide not to I'll do something else with her.. even if it's YET ANOTHER layout However I'm hoping you guys will like her and see what I see in her!

I'll close the votes either at the end of the week, if it becomes lop sided, or if the votes slow to a crawl. Happy Voting! (Be careful when feeding her)

Sadly we can't changes the outfit do to the rules so. If you don't like the outfit than you should decide if that's a make or break for you.

I think her outfit is okay. I think it may not quite fit what we're going for.. I think it's cute enough. It's a bit more revealing that I'd like but I'm good with it.

Again, the fact it's not perfect is also a very Kafuka thing.. You should consider that as one of the things that would be Kafuka like. lol

Choice is all yours. I don't mind either way..

(Btw: 50/50 means no as well. Just so you know )

I've reset everyone. Sorry. I added a new option!

If you want we can as a group build a character together.. and I could ask one of the many people I know to draw her if I get some help with a little bit of mola! I'm all for that!

If we don't get 5 votes I'm going to scrap this. However if we get at least 4 votes in "do an new char" I'll spin off a discussion thread.

Reminder: if you voted before #3 was added, you need to revote. I blew it up. bwahaha

The idea of building a new character sounds like a lot of fun, IMO.

Indeed.

Honestly, I don't like the idea of "rebranding" Kafuka at all. It's unnecessary, and honestly disruptive to the good vibe we have here. Heck, I'm barely on board with the idea of designing one as a community too. I'm a little wary of it turning into a massive cluster-eff.

Honest question Emuz: Why not use Noriko? Her aesthetic fits the vibe perfectly, she's already realized, and I sincerely don't see any mascot design being significantly better.

You are thinking about this wrong. Nothing changes other than we have some figure on a logo. It's really that simple lol

Noriko is my personal mascot. I would imagine if she was the mascot for Kafuka than it was just me be and no one else. Doesn't seem all that fair!

[01:32] <@Epele> New mascot sounds fun indeed [01:32] <@Epele> I vote for a Chibi Catgirl dressed as a Bunnygirl

Just for the record.

I'm going to warn everyone now. I'm going to be very prudish with how she looks. You'll need to loose that tacky sexy 'Gainax rabbit' cocktail dress thing and come up with some different less obviously meant-to-be-sexy clothing. She'll need to be somewhat conservative if we're going to use them. We'll need something either more causal.. or maybe even more dressy that has a sutble hint of sexy if you wish to go that route.

When it comes to branding i'm a prude and I just so happen to hold the card(s). bwahahahah ahahahaahah haahahahah (actually part of it is I want you be more creative with the clothing.. I'd like to see something cute, cool, and all of the above while being around say PG or PG-13.)
