Character Design Challenge (CDC) the theme and initial ideas

The character deign challenge for April was space pirate. For this brief I wanted to create work that could go into my portfolio as a character designer so I worked on developing a turn round, expression sheet, variety of poses and a final finished entry for the competition.



My first ideas were to create a shark based character or a sea creature pirate who was an alien as the brief allows for a lot of leniency. Trying to consider the personality and lifestyle of the pirate and how to reflect it in the design.
