At least you can draw stuff like that. I'm horrible at drawing guns. Maybe you should draw a picture of M.G. or Zoe using the ring Guns, Guns, Guns. xd

((This may or may not be a very long post.... I critique people so much on dA that they just grin and bear it, or try to work with me, lawl.))

Alrighty. Basing off of your original drawing, the newer and coloured one, anyway, I'd say we're off to a good start with the mascots.

I think their outfits could use a little lightening, just to add some more interest in the actual picture. More people nowadays tend to instantly look at bright objects. Their outfits don't have to be all "OMGHIGHLIGHTERNEONPLZ.", but perhaps justa tone upward on the colour scale of... blue and greyness?

..Honestly, it keeps popping into my head that they should get a different colour for the eyes, but that's really up to you. :0

I think the idea for brown hair is good; most twins nowadays are actually represented with brown hair.

I'll take a crack-shot at drawing them later, maybe. When we get decided on what they'll look like. :0

Yay! I finally got critiqued! Well, I don't mind what the eye colors are as long as they aren't unnatural like red. I understand about what you're saying about the color of the outfit. Perhaps we can make Zoe's jacket lighter while M.G. sticks to a more neutral shade to suit the personalities? I'll probably redesign some things such as the costumes. I'm glad you liked the hair. I had a hard time thinking of what kind of hair color they should have. I almost went with a faded pink! gonk

Lol! I saw! On the picture you posted of a male with pink hair, my reaction was "...That's a GUY?"

Red's odd. We all know. xDD
Making them lighter and darker might help differing the personalities, but it might also make the outfits look like they're not the same, so be careful on this part.

Yeah. That is indeed a guy. He is from a series called Gravitation which I heard of but I'm not interested in it.

The part of the darkening and lightening is a risk. Perhaps we should have test run to see how it goes.

I have an idea for testing colours out. :v

When you do the lineart, save it separately, then copy and paste it so that there are a few images lined up. Then, you can compare colourings; even mix and match.

I have the lineart saved! I'm currently doing some tests right now. I'll show them when I'm done. Here's the lineart if you want to try. (It has transparency.) Don't copy and paste it, use save as by right clicking it. =D
I don't have the hair clip on Zoe in the lineart, but now you can add your own head accesory or something.

Hah, sweet. ;D
However, I think I may try drawing them in SLIGHTLY different poses. Just a tad bit. Not much is different, other than leaning. :0
Still, I'll save the lineart. xD

Meaning to ask, but have you done any full-body sketches for their costumes? I might draw a full-body sketch of the two of them later on. :0

Well, you see, I fail at drawing full bodies because my inability to draw shoes annoy me. I'll keep practicing on that though. Here's some reference for the bottom:

M.G.'s pants are not skinny jeans. I guess you can say they're like boot-cut or staight-cut. Anyway, for shoes, just make them simple. You can make them wear any shoes, but don't overdo it with a complicated design.

Ohsqu. They all look epic. LOLPINKFTW. ...For whatever reason, they look cool with blue eyes.

Iunno. I'll play around with the outfits on iScribble for my doodles on them.

Honestly, I think I like the gold and black outfit the best. It looks all epic and high-and-mighty-styled.
