Character Design: Crit Presentation

Character Design: final concepts

Here are my final concept art for all three of my characters. Quite happy with the way they turned out.

Character expression sheets

 Here are my expression sheets for all three characters I really struggled with these their quite difficult to do and out of this whole project they are my least favourite things. My villain was a particularly big problem as there's not much of his face that can move except his jaw. So I was quite limited in his expressions and in the end I could only really come up with three.

Updated Sidekick turnaround

On Justin's advice I made a few minor changes to my sidekick to enforce the possessed aspect to him, and introduce a more asymmetrical aspect to him. Also I decreased the width of his body to be in proportion to the rest of him.

Character design: Villain development and turn around

I did a few more sketches of my villain just to make sure I knew what I was doing when it came to making his turn around. 

Character Design: Sidekick development

Since my sidekick is my hero's brother I used my hero to design him. I've kept them very similar and changed the the nose mostly. I then started to think about how he will look when the villain posses him. It's quite difficult to show the way he is going to look without colour so the sketches were just to help me figure out some things. His eyes are going to be the same as the villains, not in shape but in colour. He will have veins spider-webbing over his skin coming from his temples and neck and they will spread over his body. he will have gaunt cheeks and chapped lips etc..

Below is some options for my sidekicks hair, I didn't add on all the extras onto his face since I just wanted to figure out his hair. I'm thinking of going for number 5.

Below is just an outline of what my sidekick will look like, When I do the final concept art for him is when I'll be adding all the colour and shading details to him. This shows what his clothes and the colour of them will be. I took his clothing design from the sheet I did for my hero since they are from the same tribe and brothers I wanted them to be wearing similar things.

Below is my sidekicks turnaround from the side you can see his spine sticking out from his back a lot more than a human spine should this is one of the areas that the villain that is possessing him shows through along with his eyes etc..

Hero Turnaround

Here is the final turn around for my hero character now all I have left for him is his facial expression, poses and final concept art in a chosen pose for him.
