Character design
Teahcer - Bo Mathorne
This was probably one of my favorite courses. Bo is such an amazing and inspirering artist and he's really good a teaching about the things he do. I really hope we can have him again some day.
Four straws long
Here we had to design a character from Bo's original song "Four straws long". About a little, but incredibly, strong guy who just wants to be left alone.
We had to make silhouts of the design, because if you can tell by a shadow, who and what the character is, then you're good to go.
I then later, came up with this bearded little guy -
and finally made a finished design. I think i caught the essence behind the character, quite well :)
Batman in different designs
I had to make a characterdesign to "Fosters home of imaginary friends". I foundt this style to be a bit difficult, but not as much as "Jean Baptiste Vendammes". I've left that one out becauce it simply did'nt work for me.
But here you can see the foster version.
Here, he was too detailed and he's supposed to be more simple, so i had to shape him a bit.
In the end, i just descided to go with the angry, round one, in the middle. Fitted for a childrens show :)
Also, we had to make him in Bo's own style and that, i loved. It was really fun to do this one, though he should havde ben more bony and sloppy... But this'll do for now.
(also, some more examples of bo's style to the right)
Forest God
So here i had to design a mystical creature that dwelled in the northern forests.
Some samples of my inspiration
And my ideas for a creature.
I could'nt decide between the lower right or lower left, so my idea newer made a full completion.
Olsen Banden
So here, we had to design a three-man group that had the characteristics of another known trio. An example could be like - mickey mouse, donald duck and goofy. I choose "The olsen banden" and made them into ninja, furries :D
- From the start, i loved the idea of Kjeld being a timid, scared and girly, bunny, because.. well.. he IS timid and scared. And the girly part? well i guess it just kinda hightlighted the fact.
- Benny had to be a big wolf, i could'nt run from that idea. But in the beginning, i made him too muscular and strong. He had to be more "sleazeball" i you could call it that.
- And then there was Egon. Well. I guess i made him too young and potent. He had to be more wise. So i worked with that as well.
Here are the final results. Kjeld is the same, Benny is more slender and Egon has some beard. But i should have made that longer or something, instead. 'cause he still looks too youthfull.
