Character Designs!

So after deciding that everyone in the group was to do at least one character concept, I decided to do a few more, as it's what I want to specialise in. I also took this as an oppertunity to blow the dust off some older characters and develope them into stronger personalities.

First up are these guys: (click on the image to see a large and detailed version)


From left to right are: Jason "Switch" Briggs, Lucretia and Thea'nor.

Only Switch and Lucretia are older characters, and here is what I developed them from. Please bare in mind that these images are very old now ^^'

Original Lucretia Designs
- These are from Jan. 2007 >.< Another, very recent version of her costume- This was done a couple of months ago before I moved away further from the cheesy look, and give her the more sci-fi design that she has now.

The image below is the newest and most simplfied version of her design, and although the anatomy sucks (I used a reference for the above images, but not the one below), I think it shows her costume pretty well. It fits her personality, whilst being much more pratical than her older designs, and manages to retain just a hint of cheese :D


Although I have the other 2 characters, Lucretia is going to be the main one I focus on. I hope to try and do a 2D pixel sprite of her at some point (as long as I dont run out of time!)

Switch is based off another very old character, and I'm finally happy with his design also.

Cringe worthy Switch portrait- Although you can't see it from this image, Switch's design has changed hell of a lot. Well, his costume design anyway, which I also think fits the game much more. Unfortunatly I don't have the original full body design, but believe me when I say that I based nothing of his new design on it.

I decided to keep Switch's personality very much the same- he's a very friendly, easy going character, who is very much aware of his good looks, resulting in him being as vain as a peacock and thinking he is quite the ladies man.

Oh look! Another awful older drawing >.<

If you've read this far, then you deserve a bloody medal. Not much further to go now, I promise!

Thea, is a totally new character, but is based off another old species of mine. Thea is really only there to look pretty and give the game a kind of sex appeal I guess? *cringe* Haven't thought up much of a personality yet.

And with that, I shall end your misery and this horribly long post >.<
Thanks if you got all the way through this!
