Character Concept


In addition to the forest area I'm planning, I'm also constructing a new character. He's done in a more cartoonish style, with larger eyes and hands, a slimmer waist, and brighter colours planned. He's got a whole history mapped out and I've been redesigning him for a number of years.

This is actually my favourite style of character. Stuff like Team Fortress 2, or Pixar's characters, are incredibly expressive. Though I realize my design looks somewhere between that and some really generic anime.

While I do love more cartoonish styles, I made the female character in my reel because realism sells better than a cartoony character to many studios. But I figure I need to make this one character before I get hired and tied onto a project that will devour me whole.
