So usually for birthdays/Christmas the last few years, I've made my girlfriend little fanart pictures doing crossovers of things she likes (often like characters from one thing into the art style of another). She loves them and I enjoy making them. Pictures I've done previously:

https://imgur.com/TjqVdRO
https://imgur.com/56MtJyT
https://imgur.com/ZaE9QOl
https://imgur.com/Ik4AIZ4

so here's my plan for this year: I want to do a Winnie the Pooh/Bojack Horseman crossover, based on this picture:

1DZ3arT

essentially replacing the Pooh characters with Bojack characters, but keeping that same Pooh style

I'm unsure quite how I want to go about it though. For instance, how much of the original should I maintain? Should the characters be the same sizes as the Pooh characters, or be more proportional to their actual sizes (for instance, if I want Todd as Piglet, should he be tiny or just regular Todd?)

should I make the outfits more closely resemble the Pooh characters? Should I just make them the same animals as the Pooh characters, and if so, how should that be translated?

Should I do this in Photoshop (like the other four pictures I've made) or attempt it in SAI (where I'm not all that skilled) do get it closer to that handdrawn style?

I like those previous pics

I'm not familiar with Bojack Horseman, but based on google it looks like the main character is a horse, and the other characters are a mix of animals/humans?

offhand I think the main should be Christopher Robin - a horse with CR's outfit/pose/drum. The rest is trickier because I don't know what characters you'd want to include and how closely they parallel the cast (there's a pink cat? maybe that for Piglet?)

so the lineup of characters I was thinking:
Owl - Hollyhock
Christopher Robin - Unsure, maybe Vincent Adultman
Kanga - Princess Caroline
Tigger - Mr. Peanutbutter
Eeyore - Bojack
Pooh - Todd
Piglet - Sarah Lynn
Rabbit - Diane

That's largely based on personalities, with a few exceptions (Bojack is depressed, Todd/Peanutbutter are happy and kind of dumb, Caroline is motherly, etc.)

But say I'm doing Bojack to Eeyore. Do I keep him as sort of a stitched plush character? Do I transfer over Bojack's clothes?

It would be funny if they were the same size as the pooh characters

Or they were normal size and they were contorting themselves into the pooh poses

here's my initial sketch of Bojack

vgP2AgZ

so I'm thinking essentially keeping the weird proportions of the Pooh characters (Eeyore's giant head and fat body) but changing the details as needed. Might color the clothes to match Eeyore, not sure yet.

Still not sure how I want to handle Piglet/Pooh size-wise. I think they're the only ones that'll really be an issue since everyone else is independent of each other

here's clothes colored to match eeyore

5cLwDhZ

I think it looks decent but it's hard to say just yet, since Eeyore's colors aren't too far off from the colors Bojack already wears

and for scale

jieNI3S

thinking I want to get it printed as an 11x15 (when I printed the others, the Persona 5 and Life is Strange were both 11x15, the other 2 were 8.5x11 I think)

that'll leave a lot of empty space on top and on bottom though since the entire focus will be on the middle

I appreciate it! Eeyore -> Bojack is what originally gave me the idea, and my gf is a huge fan of both

the older images are:
Max & Chloe (Life is Strange) in the Night in the Woods style
Night in the Woods cast in Undertale style
Undertale cast in Night in the Woods style
Persona 5 cast (not in any particular style, just general fanart)

http://www.nightinthewoods.com/

We were both pretty hooked on Night in the Woods for a while there

I think Kaycee is underrated. She makes a lot of good relationships and for awhile she was good at staying under the radar.

Princess Caroline is a little wonky too; Kanga and Rabbit are definitely the hardest to make humanoid while still retaining any of their features. It's the weirdly proportioned hips/legs that do it

Diane/Rabbit still looks way worse though and I can't figure out how to fix her

QQAjuOB

so I made Diane a little taller, straightened out her face a bit, and gave her her own eyes instead of Rabbit's

there's almost nothing connecting her to Rabbit anymore beyond just the color scheme but maybe that's for the best

I originally had it that way because I did think Rabbit's expression would work well with Diane in general

but something about it just looks so unsettling

yeah, the posture came from trying to mimic Rabbit's curves

which Diane doesn't have

also considering tilting the face so it looks somewhat forward toward the screen, which is how she usually appears in the show

again, that was trying to mimic Rabbit's pose but god Rabbit's proportions suck

Nx8uJSE

so I still might make tweaks here and there but it's most of the way done

changed Diane AGAIN to make her closer to her show appearance in the face.

Wasn't sure how defined to make background details because I wanted the characters to stand out. I think certain parts turned out ok but the foreground looks a little awkward
