First early potential Archaeologist thumbnails
So I've been really eager to get some of my ideas for my potential 'Archaeologist' character. I played around with some of the techniques I learnt in our character design class, starting with a simple shape each of a different type.
I am happy with the designs I came up with even though I'm not likely to use any of them, I had to get out some of the more 'cliche' designs I had in mind the younger cocky adventurer, the affluent professor. the designs are relatively basic and nothing out of the box or new but I wanted to get them out with my own spin. For my next ideas I plan on taking them to a more interesting level, although I'm a big fan of something being idealised or a 'cliche' or even an innocent stereotype. So with my next designs I definitely aim to create something new and exciting with elements of something classic and familiar.

Hi Louis!
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see you throwing yourself into this project with such enthusiasm :)
My advice at this stage would be to focus on your story ideas first, before you start thinking about your character design... after all, your story might not need a human character when it comes down to it! So get lots of ideas for the story up, and get feedback on those, and see where you go from there :)
