I'd like to nominate all of the concept art designs for Megaman Legends 2. I don't understand how they did it, I go back time to time to just look at the art and it still blows my mind. The proportions, the colors, the designs, it still looks fresh even to this day.

His design is so god damn powerful

My personal favorite video game character design will always be Sol Badguy, still think the amount of belts and buckles he has is absurd but it's an acquired taste.

I'm not trying to be mean but most of the stuff posted here is generic and quite tasteless. Feels like many miss the point what is actually design and just post whatever feels cool to them, not necessarily what is original. Maybe it's just personal bias I have towards simplicity.
My pic is Tezuka designs, I love how he menages to capture facial features of humans and simplify them and create distinctive and appealing robots with character with simple shapes. This is peak character design to me. In quite surprised none mentioned him. I never really cared to read anything by Urosawa but I have to admit I like how he interpreted Tezuka's human characters.
Other than that I really like Zedig, his designs are original and vibrant.

I said if anime isn't mainstream, it's "almost there". "Best thing" wasn't used under a positive light, since mainstream does not equal good.

Overwatch has some nice characters too, but honestly a lot of them fall into "over design" territory where they got a shit ton of bells and whistles that don't add much besides being tiny details.

Since others have posted parts of their inspo folders.

My long term artistic goal is to illustrate a pulpy fantasy adventure. I've been jotting down details for the setting and I'm refining a cast of characters I've had in my head for a while.

I will reject this reality and substitute my own.

Anyway how shits my taste? Does it feel like I need to go pulpier?

It's extremely comfy, oozes character and gives you a clear idea of what the character is/does without being too cluttered or sparse. Not to mention the definite Soul it has.
