FFA 124 CHARACTER DESIGN - JOHNNY #2

This is the continuance of the previous post regarding character development of Johnny.

The next step is developing Johnny's colours. The colours must match his personality, and at the same time agrees with the notes about colour wheel that was given to us by our lecturer.

So even if Johnny's a quiet person and the colour that suits him are dark colours, it is a must to put at least one part of him that needs to be highlighted, for example his hair. The colours must be opposite in the colour wheel too. So if the dark colours are cool colours, the highlighted area must be in warm colour.

Afterwards, our lecturer leaves it to us to decide which colour combination of our character we prefer to proceed to our next step of character development.

This colour combination is the one I prefer. It is not too dark for he is not too nerd of a person. I wanted him to be more casual-looking despite being a bookworm. Thus the absence of spectacles that is one famous trait of general bookworm.

I chose the colour combination that has less cool colours because according to our original storyline, he is the main character that has a strong sense of justice, just like a typical main characters.
He has very light tone of skin for he rarely goes out unless urged by his friends. His boots are the ones he likes the most since it matches his sleek black pants and hoodie.
This picture is the next step after colour study; character turn around.

That ends this post.
Have a good day

FFA 124 CHARACTER DESIGN - JOHNNY

Each one of us needs to develop a character as our assignment, and the process of development is to be posted here. Thus.

 This one is the very first design of Johnny that has been agreed by all of us, the group members for the final year project.His characteristics are quiet, tall, bookworm but doesn't necessarily have a nerd look. Since he is quiet, he doesn't have that many friends, so he treasures a lot those who are.His expression doesn't change much if not needed but despite that look, he thinks a lot. He tends to overthink too.

This one is the earlier designs for Johnny that has been rejected for lack of variety. This was made before our lecturer announced that this project is an individual work.I was told to do it all over again. The minimum of 10 designs were needed to decide on one. Designs need to match his personality too.

 So these two pictures are the 10 designs of Johnny that was made. The struggle to design all of them was real. Even so these designs were unsatisfactory. Nevertheless, our lecturer proceeded them by choosing three of these designs that she agreed match Johnny's personality. 

 So these are the three designs that our lecturer has chosen for me to choose any one of these to proceed to the next step of character development.I decided to choose the right one even if many of those who voted vote for the middle one.

So the next step of character development is to draw the poses of the character. The poses must be related to the character based on the personality.Two poses of Johnny reading was drawn even though the pose was not related to the story my fyp group has made. It's purposely made to emphasise Johnny's one trait of being a bookworm.Other poses are related to the story we made.

Next progress will be continued in the next post.
Have a good day
