The second stage in the summer assignment was to use the sketches of strangers and turn them into actual characters. This took me a long time as i was unhappy with a lot of the potential characters i was creating. In the end i decided to just doodle as that is usually where my best ideas come from (especially when I'm on the phone to people, you should try it). This helped me a lot and soon i got four characters that i was pretty happy with: Jimmy, Lily, Simone and Ninette! Here are the character study sheets i did in photoshop:
I really like these characters, however i don't think Simone or Ninette's character sheets really do them justice, i found it much more difficult to capture pictures of them showing emotion since in my head their role in the game would be to simply hack n' slash the enemies down. They come across much better in my storyboards in my opinion. My favourite character though is Lily. Her character sheet includes the biggest variety of emotions and movements.
