Laika & Kaiya Project

Laika & Kaiya: Costume Concept 

I decided to redesign Laika and Kaiya in 2023 with a whole new look and feel to them. For Laika (the space dog) I modeled her look after a vintage Soviet Union Cosmonaut suit, with a few tweaks to the design like a breast plate and jet pack. For Kaiya (the lost child), I wasn’t sure what type of color palette I should go for, but in the end I went for the yellow one.
