Description
Okay, so heres the full cast that I came up with for Willy Wonka character design. I tried to put a bit of my style in there (but I was also referencing Nightmare Before Christmas and a bit of Triplets of Belleville). From left to right (Charlie Bucket, Veruca Salt, Violet Beauregarde, Augustus Gloop and Mike Teevee).Related content

If that straw were longer, Augustus could have drunk out of the chocolate river without falling into it.

Really nice work! I particularly like your Veruca design. You should do the demise of the kids as well!

Here's some info on Miranda Piker I got from BrainPop.com:
Augustus Gloop, Veruca Salt, Violet Beauregarde, Mike Teavee...chances are, you’re familiar with these names. They’re the bad kids in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and all of them get their just desserts on Willy Wonka’s tour.
But have you ever heard of Miranda Piker? In Roald Dahl’s original draft of the book, there are six golden tickets, with the final one going to Miranda, “a nasty-looking girl with a smug face and a smirk on her mouth” who believes that recess, vacations, and holidays should be outlawed.
During the factory tour, Miranda and her father—an equally humorless school headmaster—become outraged at Wonka’s “spotty powder,” a confection that makes children seem to have chicken pox so they can stay home from school. They head into the room where it’s manufactured, intending to smash the machinery and prevent kids from skipping class. Of course, they come to a bad end, and are themselves ground up into spotty powder.
Wonka explains that the Pikers are actually “part of the recipe,” and that spotty powder wouldn’t work unless “one or two schoolmasters” were put into the mix on occasion. Then, the Oompa-Loompas sing a song about how soon, “this child who is so vicious/will have gotten quite delicious.”
The chapter was deemed too gruesome for young readers and cut by Roald Dahl’s publisher.

I know, right? If Miranda we're kept in the book, she would have been the only one who died.
But Wonka runs a chocolate factory, not a butcher shop.
(We throw that line around a lot in the fandom.)

They aren't in the book or movie. They were scrapped characters

I really like this. I actually like these designs better than the movie versions. May I ask though how you colored it? and if you used picture reference or just drew it from your mind?

I colored them all in photoshop. No real reference, I watched both movies and decided to see how I would picture the kids. Like an exercise for myself to see if I could do another style.
Thanks for the comment!
