Character Concepts

This are some of my most recent paintings, This were quite challenging. The process for the design of this was very involved, we had to write down a character description that included their age, weight and height as well as a small biography. It was also required to make a reference library for each character according to the setting..After this was done thumbnails had to be created and presented before other artists so the best ones could be chosen. Finally the chosen thumbnails were developed further over a week, or two, in some cases.

This was a difficult process but I learned a lot about painting and making logical design choices (using the right shapes, color contrast and mood, clothing and accesories, character expression).

We developed characters for a variety of settings including: Post apocalyptic, Sci-fi, Steampunk and Fantasy.
