Peanut People

I'll be honest and say that this makes no sense

I mean, it's amusing in the first 2 pages but the novelty of making characters with peanut shaped bodies is rather weird on its own. Usually, extremely stylized characters like those are made for a "single page project" with related characters because it has a small "curiosity span". Creating any more than that is ok if you're either making a "sequel" to Funko Pop or Nendoroid, which are meant to be mass-produced and consistent so you can have a neat collection of figures

This being said, usually those types of art will often employ vector art such as this set of matryoshkas:

Because vector allows you to repurpose the outline rather easily and maintain style and consistency between pieces. Due to this, you should also go for a more cartoony looking style for all characters so that

and

look from the same "peanut people" series.

If you need some inspo here's a set of various characters done in Kokeshi-styled Japanese dolls:

Still i'm not fond of those weird projects but nonetheless i wish you luck. Just try adding more design elements to make them look good to look at.

On the upperside, you're using 3-segmented peanut husks instead of the classic 2-segmented peanut husks everyone loves to draw. Peanuts actually has a higher chance of coming with 3 nuts instead of 2.
