Character Design Tips! ππβ¨
Added 2020-08-19 19:27:44 +0000 UTCHappy Wednesday everyone! β¨
As a lot of you already know, I created this character for my #dtiys challenge and I wanted to share some of my thought process with you guys! βΊοΈ These are just a few things that I considered while working on her design and I hope you find it useful! :) π
Stay tuned for a process video of this character, a PSD, and also a video of my expression sheet! π₯³
Have a lovely day guys! π

Welcome to the community! π and yes! I usually start with three main colors to characterize the overall design. Then the other colors I have in the drawing are made from those three colors. So for example, blue is one of my main colors in this drawing, but I also have dark blue, light blue, grayish blue, etc., and those shades are made from using multiply & overlay to create the lights and darks!

2020-08-20 06:43:02 +0000 UTCI totally get that! π making original characters isnβt easy π sometimes it helps to combine your favorite things from several references into one character! Thatβs usually what I do π
