Character Design (19/11/2013)

In lesson we learnt about drawing/creating an environment that a character would live in, as it needs to feel like both the character and the environment are from the same world. A task was then given where I was told a random theme which was a Gothic science lab and with those words I then had to create an Environment.

Character Design: silhouettes and Thumbnails

Here are a few silhouettes I created from nuts and bolts for the side kick, I've been struggling to think of a design for my sidekick as he's created by the hero so is all made up of gears and other types of metal and I don't feel experienced enough for mechanical characters but it's a challenge I'm willing to accept and try to accomplish. I like the shape and form of number 3 so I will soon take it further and add some detail.

 Testing out poses and clothing for my villain but they seem a bit too heroic and the clothes seem to symmetrical, so i need to work on making it's more sharp and pointy using triangle shapes to give off a sense of danger. The same thing also goes for the face it's still a bit too curved and needs to be more of a point, but other then that it's starting to come along nicly.

Character Design (12/11/2013)

In this lesson I had learned about using silhouettes on how they are a good way to make sure the pose is strong and understandable, I was given a random theme which was superhero and the task was to draw silhouettes of different types of hero's and see if people could tell what type of super hero it was. 

I was also taught how characters have something designed in them to be memorable even if its drawn in a different style, another task was given to me to take that memorable part and put it onto another character, so I used the character Aang from The Avatar: The Last Airbender and took his arrow tattoos and put them onto my designed hero to see how he would look.

Character Design: Facial Expressions

A few quick facial expressions of my Hero, I'm still not 100% sure what he's going to look like but I did a few drawings in the top row changing a few of the facial features, I really liked the look of number 4 so I tried to take it further with different expressions.
