Project 01

2D Character Model Sheet Project

Your first project will be your chance to work on something very specific to you.  You will design your own character based on your own original idea. You should first come up with a concept (novel, film, game, etc.), then a character description. Once you have your idea nailed down you should create a series of exploratory sketches. Choose one to move forward with and create a character model sheet. The model sheet should have a construction model, turnaround sketch, signature poses, and any notes.

You will be graded on the following:
  • Construction Model
    • Solid drawing of character using reproduceable primitive forms. 
  • Turnaround
    • Front, 3/4, and side view of the character.
  • Poses and Notes
    • Signature poses of the character and notes describing unique aspects.
  • Creativity & Craftsmanship
    • Excellent design choices, novel & appealing, and solid clean caliber work.
