And for Husk being a cat with wings, it might just boil down on two things:
1. Cat = His personality as a person and that he might have died on the street due to his vices like some "stray cat", alone. Not to mention being an excellent judge of character like felines are and gets grumpy when people approach them first.
2. The Wings = His Sin. As those wings are patterned with card symbols and painted like roulette-wheels, making them the physical embodiment of his gambling addiction, with the added symbolism of "You are free to walk away from the table at any time" but he doesn't, shown by his unwillingness to fly in the series since seeing those patterns and colors would just remind him of what got him done in both in life and in Hell in the first place.

This is fun! What would the symbolism of the Vees' designs be, besides the obvious? Vox dying from a Head Smashes Screen situation seems likely, but why is Valentino a moth? Traditionally moths are depicted as easily confused, disoriented or distracted and easy prey for things like spiders, a sharp contrast to the twelve-foot-tall rapist demagogue that he is. Did he choke to death on a moth or something?
Submarine Chomper
I'll give those two a shot.
Vox: For some reason, my head-cannon regarding him is that he died from a cerebral aneurysm while on the air, hence why he got a tv for a head since that is what he technically "died inside" off from the perspective of his viewers.
His sin/death is his tv-head.
Could also explain why his pupils are different from one another and why he black outs when his blood-pressure spikes, which would make the conclusion of "Stayed Gone" a recreation off how he died in life. Died live on the air during the news due to exploding on a staff member for one reason or another.
Which also might explain why he tries so hard to "remain calm" whenever he is up with a stressful situation that is not Alastor.
His animal theme is hinted at being sharks. Sharks being a symbol of "Power and authority" which Vox, being in charge of the television network, shows off in spades, not to mention how sharks actually can bond with other creatures that are not sharks, to the point they act aggressively and jealously towards other sharks coming near that other living thing. As seen with his "relationship" with Valentino.
...
Valentino:
His Sin/Death: The red smoke from his breath. The red smoke he exhales whenever he wants. My head-cannon is that he died in bed while forgetting to put out his smoke (and since he is still coherent, it was not something deadly serious he lit on, just a regular smoke.) And now, it's basically a drug he uses to snare more slaves into addiction within his porn-industry. The sin of lust combined with his cause of death.
The moth symbolize "anger, passion, intensity, lust, motivation, and protection" among other things which five of them fit Valentino to a T, with the last one being absent. (Ironically, the last one might have gone to Vaggie instead, despite her only posing as a moth just to blend in with Hell's population, and funnily enough, fits with how her moth-motif is so incredibly vague on her person. Basically 1/6 moth.)
His height might just be him being a tall guy in life, carried over into his Sinner-Form.

And Velvette?
@ Trainbarell: The Youtuber Kolko Cat had a theory on Sir Pentious that I liked a lot, that being that he was a snake oil salesman

That actually reminds me of a related question I had: does anyone know if Sir Pentious is confirmed to be ethnically English or is there something else at work (i.e. is his voice just a thing he puts on)?
I just finished watching the show earlier this evening. :)
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.
What are Sir Pentious's egg minions exactly? I don't think they are dead people, but what are they instead then? Some kind of low-ranking demons? Extensions of his own personality?

His familiars? Homunculi?

I feel like they are just pets like Fat Nuggets and Keekee.
Jason has come back to kill for Mommy.
I wonder how much Emily and Saint Peter interact with each other, they were able to harmonize quickly in "Welcome to Heaven".
Never trust anyone who uses "degenerate" as an insult.

I bet they have daily choir-lessons where they keep practicing "Welcome to Heaven" just to stay in top-shape.
It's not like they have much else to do with all their time up there, since Heaven is a place "without bad days" after all.
Yikes, that means people have to hear him moan loudly while in song every single day...

Do you think they do "Welcome to Heaven" for all Winners that arrive in Heaven or is it like a "VIP only" thing?
It's Heaven. Stuff like things catching on fire shouldn't be a thing since Heaven is this ultimate paradise where nothing bad happens.
Yeah, but animatronics going haywire is a classic. XD

Vox would hack them with his techno powers and let the Vees conquer Heaven that way.
- Sera: (fighting for her life) Of all the ways I feared Hell would go to war with us, a fricking robot uprising was NOT on that list!

My AO3 profile. Let sleeping cats lie and be cute and calming.
But how would Vox be able to hack those if they're in Heaven and he's in Hell?
Submarine Chomper
Based on a headcannon that Heaven, Hell and Earth in the Hellverse share the same Internet between each other and the only difference being the top-domain in the end.
Anonymity online allowing the three domains to communicate with each other without tipping Earth off about the afterlife's existence.

It's probably under New Media, not Western Animation, due to its online format.
