Character design/Visual research

character designs/ concept art

Here I created this piece of concept art as an experiment of what I want my character to look like in his environment.

I experimented with different head shapes and eye sizes to try and find the perfect size for my character. I drew him with a red top hat but I'm not too keen on it. I feel like it would clash too much with the backgrounds.

Here I did a quick sketch of a frog in a strange and quirky pose. I am trying to understand the movements and the shape of a frog in order to portray it correctly in my animation.

Here is my final design of my character. I really like how cute and dorky he looks and I feel like his appearance portrays his personalty really well.

I decided to play around with some more ink in an attempt to find a nice yellow toned green for my character.

I decided to do some further research into strange frog poses in order to understand their bones and joints.

I feel over the course of this week i have had slow progress with designing my character, however my final design is something that I am excited to animate.
