Original Character Designs

Well hello there. I've spent all night doing this and thought I'll post it on my blog while it's still fresh on my mind. Not too shabby seeing as I never do rendered drawings and my tablet is rather basic.

These are all original character concepts by me. I began by drawing shapes and turning them into pitch black silhouettes. I tried to make them look interesting but wasn't sure what they were or what the internal details would look like. I then began shading them in. I left the ones I wasn't too sure about rather basic and put more effort into the ones I like. I shaded a couple to make them stand out against the others. My favorite is definitely number 6. You can clearly see I've put more effort into him and his face just has so much character! The perfect chubby, grumpy villain in my opinion.

My ideas for this was to draw some evil looking bugs/insects. I'm really not talented in drawing original concepts so this project will be a great challenge for me and a perfect opportunity to get much better. I think I may sketch number 6 further with more details at some point, put for now will walk away from it and come up with some more ideas.

My idea for these concepts is a post apocalyptic world where bugs have gone mutant and mega sized due to waste and pollution  The game would require you to "save the world" by killing the enemies (bugs) and doing certain things to save the environment. I'm yet to iron out the details!
