Polar Opposites Character No. 1


Hi all, in preparation for my return to uni next year, I've made a short start on my 'Polar Opposites' task. This required us to come up with two characters who were different physically and mentally. I decided to use a character that has appeared in other projects I've done; he is a personal favourite of mine. I've never had the opportunity to experiment with his design, so this was a great opportunity to do so.

Here's the original pencil sketch I made. He was always a bit of a fatty, but I added glasses and a belt to give him a nerdy look. His posture also suggests he's quite dumb as is intended.



However, I took it a step further and made a character sheet, experimenting with his costume to give him a more unique silhouette. I personally like the one just left of the centre, he looks like he should be in a workshop, which makes sense for someone who's so round.


I should have more characters up at some point, don't really know when, depends if I can be bothered.
