Project 2: Character and Environment Design

For our second project we have to bring a portion of our game to life by developing either a character or a section of environment. Artwork must reflect innovation and originality, from initial sketches right through to final concept.

I have decided to develop the main character in my game: Fred
I already had an initial idea of what Fred would look like that can be seen in the previous project. However, I have started back at the beginning of the design process to see where a full development will take me. To start I drew over 100 thumbnails using different shapes to get interesting silhouettes. Here are just some of these silhouettes:



My favourites from this page of silhouettes are the 4th one on the 3rd row, and the 3rd and 4th on the 4th row. All three give strong, recognizable silhouettes which is what I am looking for. Next I will develop these 3 silhouettes to design a black and white silhoette to give a better idea of more designs.
