DESIGN A CHARACTER CONTEST - WEEK 6 - SHAPE CHALLENGE (ENTRY)
This is my entry post for @w0olf's Shape Challenge Contest
Medium: Digital Art (Photoshop CS6)
Sketching:
I didn't really know what to draw at first. As soon as I started to sketch the first empty shape, it was like putting together pieces of a picture puzzle. A smug rhino came out of it. At that point I just decided, "I'm drawing animals for the next two shapes!". Then a proud rooster came out, followed by a silly croc.
Inking:
I made a few changes from the original idea of my rough sketch. The most obvious part was the rooster head. You can see the changes that I made in the picture above ↑ and below ↓. This often happens when you work your inking onto a loose sketch like this.
When the inking process is done, I hid my sketch layer to reveal my final line drawing.
Coloring:
I silhouetted each drawings with three different flat colors as the base for the next step of the process.
Applied color details + light and dark values onto the color silhouttes.
Colored the outlines to lighten the harshness of my thick ink and my work is done! :)
This is such a good exercise to hone your drawing skill especially in character design. What a fun challenge! :D

These are really great and this is an amazing challenge. I like they supply the shape and you imagine the character within that? Genius. That croc makes me smile, he's my favourite I think. This might be a fun contest to try. I'll have a think on this one.
Yes, the shapes were supplied so the challenge was to figure out the best way to fit a character design into each of them. I highly recommend that you should try this! Thank you. :)
Oh wow, these are great! The detail is awesome and how you used the shapes is very clever!
Thank you @renascence! It was really a fun challenge, figuring out how to fit each shape with a character was the best part of it. :D
Wahhh... Ini sudah lawan tokey!... hahaha!
Grats @orenisme ... This is insanely awesomee!
Great job!
I wouldn’t get this far if it weren’t for you and @perennial. So, THANK YOU! For both of you.
So polished! It'd be also nice to see a version of these three outside the outlines (though still maintaining their basic shapes). Love the work!
Yes, I was thinking to put them in a scene with backgrounds and all. But my time was limited, I got a few other works laying around that needed to be done. Thank you! :)
There never is enough time, is there
