In the first part of the course, I learned in great detail how to design a character. That’s my take on it.
I experimented with different body shapes and poses during the block out phase, having in mind the line of action and the balance of the character.
After choosing a physique for the character, I made a quick palette and clothing style for the character and made different face expressions. All of these could be made relevant to the character’s personality and visually describe the person.
