Description
I think my world of Hero Slayers fell apart so I’m trying a new world with the remains of the last one.
I’m not sure how i feel about the sheep/dino, the Rabbit and titan race.

I agree with a couple of the comments down there on the additions to this lineup.
Titans feel pretty 'meh' at the moment. Mostly just bigger than humans, with some small added traits.
I wonder if flat color would make a difference there, if their skin is a more "alien" color (like flat-color silhouettes)? I think some people made it sound like you should bulk them up (more muscle/fat), and maybe hunch them over a bit. That could work too, but makes them feel a bit more animal (think gorilla - naturally bulky, or those aliens in uh.. mass effect...?), and I'm not sure if that's what you're going for.
I know classic giants are never really that creative in their designs (just big fancy humans), so if that's what you're going for, maybe push the size even further? There are some rare people who are naturally as tall as what you have drawn. Heck, I knew a kid in high school who was younger, yet MUCH taller than me, and he had to duck constantly because he was up to the ceilings. He even wore braces on his legs because they were stretched so thin! So it can definitely happen!
I also think "Titan" brings to mind something pretty enormous, so it could just be the name itself is troublesome. Change that, and I'm sure people would change their minds.
The little sheep dino is pretty interesting, but I'm not sure on the ramifications (haha - ram) of having a race that's naturally vegetarian/sheep-related. Same with the rabbits, I guess. How do they feel about people covered in pelts, or roasting meats in their vicinity? Those are just social aspects though, and maybe they're just far-removed from society, which could be fun to play with story-wise. Also - I learned recently that sheep/goat eyes, rotate to stay horizontally aligned with the ground, and the long pupils give them panoramic view to watch for predators, so, you know, play with that if you want!
On the rabbit design, however, there definitely seems to be something off with the anatomy.
I'd suggest looking up something like Armello's rabbit clan, and see how they keep it more rabbit-like. It's more of a toony style, but maybe it'll help inspire you.
I think furry designs always feel a bit odd in a world where tiny goblins and kobolds exist, but rabbits are six feet tall, you know? I know most of it is the legs/feet, but it's just something to think about. I think small, talking rabbits could be just as interesting, as some kind of rival to the kobolds. Kobolds and (normal) rabbits both live in tunnels/underground right? I'm sure they'd bump into each other.
Hopefully some of this will give you some ideas, and you don't take it personally! I just love to give input on your designs.
Honestly, I just wish I had the time to play with my fantasy world. ;u;

Yea, I only ever drew one titan thing and that's an old oc I have. Never did much with her race.
Those are good ideas. I typically come up with the design first then the lore behind them.
Yea I tried to use that ref for the head but everything just kinda fell apart for this one.
Well minotaurs and Cat people are common races in fantasy but yea, i do feel the same. IDK i like furry races but i also don't. Not sure what to do.
Thanks for the help. <3 it was a good comment.
I'm sorry. Are you busy everyday?

I know that feeling. I'm sorry you're in that situation hon.
Managing time is never fun to do but I guess it's necessary.
Hehe. I've noticed you do that a lot. XD It's ok. I just never know how to reply to them cause there's a lot to cover. lol.

Titans look cool! 8O
Though maybe make them bigger and heavier looking, that way they'd be slower giving them a weakness o3o
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't want to make them too gigantic. What do you mean heavier looking?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Large builds, broader shoulders, larger muscles. Akin to a Gorilla in terms of build vs size

Oh i understand. Yea that wasn't what I was going for. Sorry.

\^w^/ I'm just happy to give some input.

I like the sheep dino a lot. Perhaps have the Titan be less upright? And I’m not a huge fan of rabbit races to begin with.
super cool though!

Mkay. I'll consider those. Thank you!
Thanks. I don't mean to spam ppl with the same race list though

Rabbit looks much to tall and "rabitty" in my opinion.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think so. I think i know what you were trying to go with on it but i think that the head is the bigger problem. Either a bit too small or to feral. (maybe moving chin more to look down instead of straight ahead would also help? not sure about this tho.)
As for legs i think if you made them just a tad bit smaller/shorter (i do think that a "short-stock" kinda body would work for a rabbit) and move a bit of the musculature from the hips to the tights (and under them)it would look more pleasant.
