- As I wanted him to be a very expressive character, I've tried to include a lot of poses here with a decent array of expressions.
- The ones I'll be using for the scenario are mostly going to be surprise, wonder and sadness, but I thought it would help to add things like disinterest and anger in as well, just to show his range of motion.
- The design of his eyes was specifically chosen to express his emotions - in most of these, they're a pretty clear indicator of how he's feeling. His hair adds to the expression as well, changing shape depending on his moods.
Also here's a few poses of him doing various things:
And a color sheet featuring a variety of swatches and patterns that I thought would suit him. All swatches have been taken from Colour Lovers.
- Solidified the idea that Embry was going to be a golem, and so picked out color palettes that would suit him. Most of these are earthy colors that remind me of clay and clay formations. Embry was made with clay or mud and I wanted his colors to reflect that.
- After asking for my classmates' opinions on facebook, it was decided that the bottom middle palette was the best choice for his final design.
- I'm still rather fond of the top middle and right palettes however, and feel like they look more appropriate for a man made of clay. I'm sticking with the popularity vote for the meantime, though adjustments may be made in the future.
- I also experimented with a few simple patterns, as clay comes in a variety of colors and tends to marble together. I feel like it gives Embry a very tribal or primitive look, which fits in with being a simple figure made of clay.
