I managed some character design stuff, or at least roughly speaking, in the last couple of months. It’s definitely something I’m interested in and want to get better at. I don’t want to be too harsh on myself but I think I’ve got a long way to go!
This guy I’ve had in my roster for a while of go-to-designs (in some variation or another). They’re just a wizard type character with some simple shapes. In a lot of respects it’s very heavily inspired by Abigail from the comic Back (art by Anthony Clark), though I’m not sure that was my intent when I came up with it. I’ll probably make a separate post at some point about my influences, but Anthony Clark and KC Green are definitely up there as some of my favourites for sure.
This was part of the physical theatre workshop we did this week (12/1), which was a lot of fun! Not entirely character design based but I just wanted to include it here.
I haven’t got a name for this character yet but I really had fun putting her together! My idea is that she’s an archaeologist (in her winter outfit here), and she streams herself making discoveries and poring through research material. I need to find a way to make it more exciting than that really, and some of the other ideas for this can be seen in my previous post, with the stuff about SETI being another idea for where I could take it.
I just wanted to put together some sort of mech pilot design here, nothing particularly complicated, I just really like mech show designs –
