Character thumbnails
|
This week we begun our 2D graphics course, which was fun! The first couple of days we talked about anathomy and we got to do croquis with a nude model. The time we had to draw each pose ranged between 30 seconds and five minutes. I like that by flipping through the pages in my sketchbook I can see the difference between the morning of the first day and the afternoon of the last day. Our assignment for this week was to draw 20 thumbnails of characters for one of two concepts. The first concept was called Clash of the Heavens and the other was Princess Bella and her Umbrella. I chose the latter. The game is a 2D platformer for iPad and iPhone, and I chose a simple cartoony style for my characters.
Some of them definitely, uh… turned out better than others. I was running out of inspiration towards the end. My favorites are the top left one, the lizard and the bird. I’m really curious what the programmers have done this week. (Hint, hint.)  |
