day 27: space cadet v3

again with the space cadets.  this time around, I played with a more elongated type of character as well as more options for costume and props.  one thing i do like about the character is the pose.  homeboy looks like he’s ready for some action and is real pissy about something.  back to the drawing board, to play around with different design styles.  cheers

day 26: space cadet v2

another pass at a space cadet design.  tried to explore more options with the costume, proportions, etc.  Hell, I even designed another raygun.  Don’t know if I’m there yet with the design, so it’s back to the drawing board.

day 25: space cadet

I don’t draw sci-fi all too much, so I thought that now’s a good time to start.  Definitely some things I need to change about the drawing.  I think it’s because I’m not too fond of the pose.  But hey, it’s a first pass so hopefully the other versions come out 10x better.

day 24: Poseidon

How do you design Greek Gods without rehashing what’s been done before?  Hell, that’s the plight of every character designer out there.  The great thing about the idea being done before is that you have that reference.  I looked at all the versions done before and had in mind what I didn’t want to do/copy.  The tricky part is trying to think of something new.

I decided to approach the Poseidon design by placing him in modern times.  As much as togas were the norm back then, it wasn’t gonna cut it with what I had in mind.  So I played around with trying to make it modern and still godly in a sense.  So here’s what I came up with.  Hopefully, it looks moderately cool.

day 23: ninja?

well, this is long overdue.  reminds of that one time I forgot to return some books to the library.  however, with this challenge, I don’t get penalized with late fees.  but nevertheless, not one of my finer moments.

remember those samurai characters I’ve been posting?  well, i decided to add a henchman ninja in the mix.  I swear I’ll finish this challenge before March.  haha.  cheers.
