The last piece of wardrobe for the main antagonist. Now that she’s done, time to move on to other characters.

Today, worked on the 4th (out of 5) wardrobe designs for one -of many - antagonist(s). I’m very happy with how the designs are coming.

Was looking back at older designs of the project back from 2015… The ideas were very raw. I can appreciate the work done, but I suppose it takes time for ideas to mature.

Seeing gas the base for her design is done, it didn’t take me long to get through this (3 of 4) design.

Last couple of days were pretty busy but managed to knock out two out of four designs for the story’s main antagonist.

Drawing nude bodies is rather challenging as there’s really no room to hide when it comes to bad designs. You can hide a lot of errors with the costume, but everyone pretty much has an idea of what the human body is suppose to look like.

There’s also something about the look on her face, her eyes, that disturbs me. So I am successful in the designs accomplishment.

Today, I worked on some additional wardrobe designs for Owen. He’s a tech guy and I thought it fitting if he had a bit of that tech person look. In the opening of the story, he’s dressing to impress. Then there are moments in between were we see him getting comfortable before turning super successful that he completely changes his persona.

Also worked on his head turns and shapes to show more of his features.

Really happy with how this turned out. In the store, Owen is a little older and a little more world weary so I wanted to reflect that in the subtleties of his design by adding some stubble to his face and bags under his eyes. Keeping it pretty simple and it’s good to see things coming together.

Worked on the main character, Owen, today. Throughout the film, there are a couple of iterations: young, which you see here, then an older version and then the last one which shows the wear and tear of life. I always thought i was interesting how in animated productions 9 out of 10 projects will keep the character design consistent throughout, never showing physical change.

It’s hard to keep track of and maybe there’s some psychological connection that gets broke, but either way, I’m doing the physical change here in this film.
