DMAD 190 Character Project

This project was a difficult one for me. Giving characters expression using a graphic arts software proved to be challenging for me. I was able to create one really well done gothic gamer girl character, however after losing time my other characters fell flat. They lacked a relaxed look to them. They came out rigid and boxy, with very little detail. This was one of the first projects for the class where I lost confidence in my abilities. I was dissapointed in my work and had to learn how to overcome that frustration.

The project was a great opportunity for me to take advantage of constructive criticism. I was able to take the notes my professor gave me and apply them to the characters. This project is still one I am currently improving to help refine my character illustration skills. My hope is to design great characters to use for future animation projects.
