Here, I have just finished part one of my Total Drama (2023): Around The World Cast as Animals, I've decided to do six or five characters for each part and have just finished the first part, so let's get started.

First on the left, we have Emma as an Akita, I thought that since I thought of Mateo and Chase as both dogs if they were animals, I thought I would do the same for Emma. So I decided to make her and Akita, both for her looking cute as a dog, and the fact that Akitas happen to be slightly aggressive when provoked, which described Emma's personality throughout the first season of the reboot.
Now for Mateo, I made him a gray wolf, the reason why is a secret because Mateo has a secret past that will be revealed later in my Total Drama book. But, Mateo did give me Legosi vibes from Beastars when I first made him as an oc so I thought part of my reason could be because of that.

Next up on the left, is Chase as a Rottweiler, I mostly thought of Chase as a dog given his personality and the fact that dogs are really popular on the media, mostly for online videos when they do tricks or show off their charm.
And on the right, is Zee as a three toed sloth. I thought that since Zee was pretty calm and chill during most of the season of Total Drama, I couldn't think of Zee as anything else but a sloth, plus I thought drawing a picture of a sloth holding a can of soda would sound funny.

Lastly, we have Scary Girl/Lauren and Silas as sheep. Scary Girl is a Merino Sheep, while Silas is a Jacob Sheep, which is a spotted sheep with four horns. When I first thought of animals for the Total Drama Cast, I knew instantly that Scary Girl would go well as a sheep because of the phrase 'Wolf In Sheep's Clothing'.
As for Silas, I wasn't sure of what sheep Silas could be, but after finding out about the Jacob Sheep, I knew that it would perfect because of their spotted fur pairing well with Silas's heterochromia and that his timid nature reminds me that of Wooly from the game, Amanda The Adventurer.
(That's all for now, some more will be coming soon. Feel free to let me know which of these designs are your favorite.)
