This isn't a "best of every tier" thread. This something I wanted to do for the past hour and I'm doing it now before I can forget. It's simply a thread to list the characters who you think are the best designed. This isn't to narrow it down to one person or two people and it isn't restricted by gender. This is just to showcase good designed characters.
However, this is a kind of personal thread. I thought that I needed a little inspiration on the designs of characters of mine, so I wanted to see some good designs to get my creative juices (or at least that of my friend so I can tell him) flowing. Because of that, I have to set some rules, and the rules will be specific, as it's tailored to me.
The character has to be human/humanoid. No animals, no eldritch, no amorphous beings, not even furries (or at least the far end of the spectrum like from MLP or something). I don't care if they have different colored skin or extra appendages, but they have to look human.
They don't have to be studs, but they can't be downright ugly. No Ashe or anything of the sort. We have to be able to see their face as well. Superficial, I know, but it's for my inspiration.
No sprites. Like, no 8 bit sprites from verses like Undertale or Yume Nikki. I'm looking at you, Saik ovo.
Best design doesn't mean most unique design. While I do like uniqueness, someone who's like, three different colors with messed up hair won't fall under a "best design". I want memorable in the good way.
While bishies are okay, along with characters that can be mistaken as the opposite gender are okay, no outright traps are allowed, like Astolfo or Felix, and that includes people like Slaanesh.
This one's less controversial, but clothing/costume matters. Someone with nice hair but boring clothes won't stand out.
