Hi! Viscous is my favorite little guy and since he doesn't seem to have a set design yet, I thought I'd take a swing at making some designs of my own! Nothing would make me happier than seeing them inspire the final design, even if only in a few small ways. Of course I understand if not. You guys are doing a great job and I'm so excited for what you have in store for the little goober. Anyway, onto the designs!
Design A aims to stray from the current placeholder and incorporate more of the characters story and theme into his visuals. Since this one was all about experimentation, I wanted to try out turning him into an octopus rather than a sea anemone (though there are some sketches of different anemone variations as well)
Design B aims to stay more true to the current placeholder with the goal of evolving the character visually without making too wild of a departure from the temporary design that some have grown to love. This version does not include a smaller creature, and so some changes to the design or the lore would likely be necessary. He's been softened up into a form that's more goopy and his weapon has been replaced with a sort of hose that's inserted into his body, allowing him to fire chunks of himself at the enemy. I thought it could be cute if the reload animation could be the hose dislodging from his body and him having to fumble to put it back in place.
