batch 1 (duncan, gwen, courtney, owen, leshawna, heather, geoff, bridgette, trent, & harold)
sadie & katie
The Attention Hog didn't have many changes. He stayed consistently orange but other things changed.
His beach-y look got more stylish and his hair got more swept back and changed in color.
He's still desperate for attention. That never changes.
The Religious Do-Gooder didn't have many design changes but he certainly changed in concept.
Originally he was just a religious guy that went wild during the show. Feral!Auggie got dropped in favor of making his arc a bit more serious.
He's still a sheltered religious kid but his journey of learning about the real world will be taken a lot more serious instead of making him a joke.
The Competitive Dancer barely changed. She only had one design before this and all that changed was making her a bit more modest. And adding some green.
Not much to say about her otherwise. Except some new additions to the cast will change her story arc a bit.
The Visionary had a big and very noticeable change in her 2nd design. The moon afro has become her signature look and the main reason I don't wanna draw her from the side.
Her outfit also got more darker in color. Which make the lighter part of her outfit stand out more.
The Zoologist is a design I haven't shown off before. Because originally he and his sister would be newcomers in a 2nd season.
Also not much to say about his redesign. Just cleaned up the original.
Personality wise he's a peacekeeper, he loves animals and is basically the team leader. He's also a bit of a neat freak but he tries not to be obnoxious about it. Tries.
The Workaholic got a lot less saturated as time went on. He's duller colors reflect how much passion he has for all his jobs. Not much.
His hair got cleaned up, the uniform less cluttered, a new shade of blue. And his stubble got more youthful. He's only 18. He doesn't need to look like he's in his 30s.
The Rebel Rocker based on Floyd Pepper from The Muppets!
Her outfit kept looking more pirate like so I just leaned into it. I made it her brand. Her hair also got longer with her bangs supposed to resemble Floyd's mustache.
The Pretentious Goth also has only 2 designs. And the redesign looks a lot cleaner then the original.
Darker colors, refined his outfit, a bigger hat and restyled hair makes a world of difference despite the similarities.
His opinion of you hasn't changed tho. He still thinks you're below him.
The Botanist is the 2nd half of the Globetrotting siblings. Unlike a certain other pair of siblings, Diego and Isa have a much healthier relationship. They're still competitive af tho.
Her design didn't change too much. Her colors did however. The dark orange looks better next to Diego's blue and makes her stand out more in the cast overall.
Now she may not look like it, but this gal is the Owen/Sugar/Ripper of the season. She's a total slob and it drives her brother insane. Not that she ever listens to his complaints. Or other people's complaints. She's a handful.
The Hippie bases on Janice from the Muppets!
Like his inspiration he had some prominent lips that got removed in the 2nd design. But were brought back in the new design. His pink also got softer.
His name however was the thing that changed the most throughout his development. Starting with Jason to Jonas to finally Janus. Which is pronounced basically the same as Janice.
Just realized that I didn't upload all of them in their fantasy version.
idk If I asked u this question b4 but uhmmmmmmmmm how do u come up with designs 😞😞😞
i wish i had a good answer but idk. i need to visualize the base design head first and then from there i sometimes suck in my love of fashion and other character archetypes, or draw inspo from other similar characters in media. i ask myself what body type so i see them having? or fashion? if its an object, can i incorporate any shapes they have into the design? just stuff like that 🙏 i know its not helpful but its my process 
if you want a recent example: take my candle design! i was stuck cus i knew what i wanted her to look like but i didn’t know how to go about it. obviously she needed an outfit that was based off the earthy aesthetic, and i wanted her to have a lot of piercings and jewelry. i decided to also give her tattoos. for inspiration, i actually took some from treehugger from MLP and venus mcflytrap from monster high generation 3.
i’m the worst at explaining things but i hope at least i could give a bit of insight 😭

DISCLAIMER: these redesigns are made for fun. constructive criticism, feedback, and suggestions are appreciated, but please be respectful about it.

team dracula plays monopoly (og image under cut)
Species: Living Wax Figure
Gender: Female
Role: Doom Raider, Ally
World: Chandelier Circus
Attacks: Lamp Sparks, Laughter Leap, Wick Explosion
Headcanon Voice Actor(s): Sarah Stiles
Candlequin is a clown made out of wax who is a Magic villain in Skylanders: Trap Team and a Doom Raider.
Personality
Being a clown, Candlequin is very comical and goofy, and she enjoys being in the spotlight. She enjoys herself whenever she is performing, always aiming to bring down the house. She likes to do things her own way. Candlequin is also a bit of a neat freak, arranging her candles in specific rows, but she doesn't like cleaning up messes.
Abilities
Candlequin is able to light up the wicks on her fingers and magically shoot fire sparks from them. She can summon large explosive candles from the ground. She also can twirl the floating hoop around her waist, which allows her to throw sparks from all angles. She is shown to be fairly athletic, as she is capable of jumping very high and doing flips and cartwheels.
History
When she first came alive as a performer made of wax, she was given the name Kendall Quinn. Upbeat and candle-obsessed, Kendall traveled in the circus with the other creations of her inventive ringmaster, performing for audiences across Skylands. But then, when the ringmaster started leading the circus in disturbing ways she wasn't happy with, Kendall grew rebellious. She ran away from his circus to start one of her own- the Chandelier Circus- and called herself the Candlequin. She loved being the one in charge to the point where she wanted to show everybody how powerful she was. She and her villainous circus troupe forced people to watch their evil performances, also casting bright spells on their belongings that would make them melt. Her show of force and magical prowess led her to enter the ranks of the Doom Raiders, pushing Pain-Yatta out of the spotlight in the process. She strongly preferred being part of the Raiders than being back in her old circus, as she felt like she had a stronger sense of individuality and brightness. Eventually, like the rest of her fellow Raiders, Candlequin was locked in Cloudcracker Prison.
Skylanders: Trap Team
After the Doom Raiders were freed, Candlequin, like the others, really didn't feel like following Kaos's plan for world domination. She was curious to know how old he was. Later in the story, after noticing that the group was losing assets with more of them being captured, Candlequin decided she'd stop the Skylanders herself. She reopened her circus with improvements using the leftover Traptanium, swiping people up and keeping them within its walls. The Skylanders arrived at the circus, where they battled its attractions on the outside of the tent and then confronted her on the inside. The fight that followed resulted in Candlequin being defeated and captured.

Villain Theme ♫
This is what I imagine the music for her boss battle sounding like:
And I imagine her villain theme, the music that plays when you play as her, sounding something like this:
Trivia
- Her name is a portmanteau of "candle" and "harlequin."
- She was going to be a marionette/clown/candle hybrid named Marion Candles, but the marionette side of her was removed because her creator thought she'd be too similar to Mesmeralda.
- Candlequin's creator imagines her being a Sensei for the sorcerer battle class, wielding a large candlestick staff.

MORE REVENGE OF THE ISLAND REDESIGNS RAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH
DISCLAIMER: THESE DESIGNS WERE MADE FOR FUN. Constructive criticism, feedback, and suggestions are appreciated as long as it’s conveyed in a respectful manner.
batch 1 (duncan, gwen, courtney, owen, leshawna, heather, geoff, bridgette, trent, & harold)
batch 2 (lindsay, tyler, izzy, eva, noah, cody, justin, ezekiel, dj, & beth)
sadie & katie
world tour batch (alejandro, sierra, & blainely)
roti batch 1 (dawn, dakota, sam, lightning, scott, b, & staci)
Alex. The Attention Hog
Doesn't care about anything except having everyone's attention on him. I mean, why wouldn't you pay attention to him. He's ripped, he's clever, he's hot, he's got muscles, did I mention he's ripped?
Finn. The Workaholic
Money, money, money. That's what Finn dreams about. It's why he works 6 different jobs and sleeps 2 hours a week. (If he's lucky) He loves money. He wants a lot of it. But the only way he'll accept it is through hard work.
And what's harder then winning Total Drama?
Gabriel. The Pretentious Goth
He barely glanced at you and he's already unimpressed with you. You're just not up to Gabriel's standards. Too mainstream and normal. Have you ever even worn a corset?
Just because he thinks he's better then you doesn't mean he has to constantly remind you of it. And yet he does.
Darla. The Visionary
Darla doesn't create art. She IS art. She breathes, eats and drinks art!
What exactly does she consider art? Oh you know, the usual. Glueing her schools desks to the ceiling. Swapping out the football uniforms for ballgowns. And of course, shaping her hair into the shape of the moon.
Rachel. The Rodeo Star
This devious diva has it all. Brains, brawn and beauty. And she's planning to walk away with the million keeping that all intact.
She's not a bad person, really. Just competitive. If she wasn't competing, she'd rather treat her fellow contestants to one of her Rodeo shows and some home-baked pie.
Raheem. The Oblivious Heartthrob
Raheem doesn't seem to realize how attractive he is. In fact, he doesn't realize a lot of things. He's kind and pretty book smart. But he's just terrible at reading social cues.
He feels terrible whenever he offends someone or make them upset because he didn't read their emotions properly. He doesn't really know to fix this issue so he just puts on a smile and suppresses his turmoil.
Olive. The Doormat
Coming from a big family where she doesn't feel like she fits in, Olive tries her best to help people so she'll feel accepted.
Now if only there was a way to help people without dragging so much attention to herself.
Lulu. The Clown
Lulu just wants to put a smile on people's faces and have fun. She can get easily carried away when she's excited. But once she calms down you'll notice just how pragmatic this Clown is.
Just because she's silly doesn't mean she doesn't have common sense, she might just surprise you in ways you didn't expect.
Phoenix, aka Francis. The Menace
Phoenix identifies as a problem. An inconvenience. An absolute menace you're never quite sure is messing with you, or is joking around. He randomly SHOUTS random words when he speaks, either another way to annoy people or just a disorder.
He lost his arm in a fire he may or may not have definitely caused himself. But he survived which is how he got the name Pheonix.
Cherry. The Competitive Dancer
Cherry values teamwork more then anything. She tries her hardest to be a valuable teammate and keep everyone focused. Of course, they might listen to her more if she tried to spend more time with the team outside of challenges.
After a recent betrayal in her dance troupe where someone sold routines to rival troupes, Cherry doesn't trust new people easily. And clings to the ones she does trust.
Augustus. The Religious Do-Gooder
Augustus is a sweet kid. Always looking to do a good deed for someone. That's how he was raised in what is definitely not a cult.
Good deeds are very important to Auggie here. After all, once you do a good deed for someone, they have to do a good deed for you. They have to. Because if they don't, things get ugly...
Janus. The Hippie
Janus is like, Fer sure, the chillest guy around. He's all about that inner peace stuff. And outer peace. And of course, in-between peace. He spreads his message of peace by sharing crystals, flowers, and songs played on his guitar.
People say Janus is incapable of feeling any hate. He loves everybody. But he's a romantic at heart and is still looking for that special someone to love.
Marlo. The Prankster
Marlo loves pranking people. Fart cushions. Prank calls. Acid in the towns water supply. You know, the usual. Okay so Marlo may be lacking some, what do you call it? Morals! And yes he's uncapable of feeling empathy.
But. He's also got a criminal record. So point is. When you see Marlo, run the other way.
Flo. The Rebel
Flo isn't a big fan of authority or "The man" telling her what to do. She'd rather live her own life, free from anyone's expectations or rules.
Her favorite past time is rocking out with her band, Voltageous Chaos! She's lead singer and bassist. Her little sister Beast is on the drums, BFF Prof. Cavity on keyboard, sleepy gal Moot on Sax and incomprehensible Zips on Trumpet.
Still looking for a Guitarist though...
Parvati. The Mythology Buff
Parvati adores learning about Mythology. Especially the creatures. Fantastical beasts she can only fantasize about. Of course while learning Mythology she also learns a lot of history and cultures from around the world.
She has so many thoughts going through her head sometimes she loses focus on what she was doing. But after stumbling a bit she gets right back at it and gives it her all. For a nerd she's quite athletic.
Sasha. The Nepo-Baby
Wait, you guys don't have family members working high in the industry and getting you onto TV-shows? But there's so many people in the industry, surely you're related to some of them?
That's what Sasha thinks at the least. She doesn't really see how many privileges she has in life. Which thankfully means she never taunts less fortunate people with those privileges.
Her dream is to become a famous singer, and she has enough connections to make that dream a reality. Of course she herself works hard on her singing and encourages others to work on their dreams too. She's very sincere and optimistic.
Tony. The Short-Tempered Greaser
Tony has always been a bit, vertically challenged. Something bullies picked up on. Which then got picked up by his younger twin brothers, who did get blessed with the tall genes and at 14 tower over their older brother.
The constant bullying at school and at home, unable to tell his mom in fear of worrying her, and never quite properly dealing with the grief of losing his father, has left Tony with a lot of bubbled up anger. And it doesn't take much for him to snap.
Madileighn. The Annoying Influencer
Madi worked hard to gain a following. But her general cluelessness about the problematic brands she endorses, sharing videos about animals that look cute but are in distress, and accidentally joining a pyramid scheme makes her tiring to be around.
As she genuinely believes she's doing nothing wrong.
Well. That's it. My Total Drama Cast! I'm planning on writing a fanfic about them.
Taking place after the 2nd season of the Revival, where the show goes back to the abandoned film lot for a Take 2 of Total Drama Action.
18 contestants. 9 per team. Only 1 winner.
Stay tuned for more news.
