Shape, Scale, Color

Image
Shape   I used a lot of different shapes in my design. the main shapes would be the head design that was based on an owl and the body which I also based on the owl. My inspiration for the owl design was the fact I did my research on stealthy animals because that is how I want my character to appear. Scale I tried out a few different sizes for my character and I am still working on a final decision. The smaller version I tried make the character feel weak, but I am too happy with the looks on the bigger versions I have tried. Color I tried two different color schemes and I really like the first one I tried with the brown colors. I tried another color scheme with blue as the base for the main colors. For some reason my pictures will not upload so I will add those into the blackboard post.

Gesture + Scribble/Uncanny Valley

 Gesture + Scribble  Uncanny Valley I saw this plant outside of the building and thought that it looked cool and saw a character while looking at it. I saw that the outermost branches kinda looked like arms and the one in the middle sticking up kind of looked like the head or a head with a headpiece. This would avoid the uncanny valley because the character is based on a bush and is far different from a human.
