Revelations of my thinking process...the beginning

Stage 1 how the characters are gonna look.

in this stage I will be making sketches of the characters in various poses has facial expressions with various emotions ...the objective is to show my capability in bringing human feeling in these characters.

next step will be making a model for each character, because they are animals and because of their shape it will be easier for me to complete a final model sheet using the model has a reference.

I was trying to get the cartoon feeling in my characters because I didn't want to have realistic characters so I could keep the essence and nature of animation witch is exaggeration and caricature look since the origanal characters are too realistic.

I was thinking how would I began my characters with a simple process that would be easily understandable so I started with a logical form.

In pushing the limits of character design I will trying to fit the characters in the same world.

what can be great about the characters is the tone of the cartoon, so the script will have a major play in creating these characters and their design style,

1 Functional

Form

Simplicity

Can Be Moved Easily

2 Aesthetic

Pleasing Balance Of Shapes

3 Distinct From Other Characters - Recognizable

4 Personality

5 Originality
