Moodboard. I kept some of the refs for inspiration.
Thumbails - concept 7 was chosen
Colour Palette- Palette 4 was chosen.
Line turnaround- I might have to chnage the patterns on the back view to make the design more consistent
Hairstyle Ideations - I liked the ponytail and I felt it would suit the character in a modern age world in contrast to his tradition "eagle hair".
Final Concept
Back View
Material Callout
Work and process for an assignment piece I did while attending to the Character Design for Film and Games course at CGMA with David Paget.
The design is based on these inputs:
DARK FANTASY/FIGHTER/ SUMMER
warrior, hero, protector, deity
And for the character pitch, I wrote:
An elemental being in his mid 20s / early 30s from the Philippines.
He is a reincarnation of the bird- king, Haribon, whose sole purpose is maintaining order and peace. He is a fierce slayer of demons and protects the weak and vulnerable from the evil that manifests within the realm. The character is able to fly and his uniform serves as his armour.
