Concept art and character design for the main cast of a comic project, including a key scene where the action takes place.
I developed a range of facial studies to ensure strong visual consistency and recognizability across panels. Clothing turnarounds were not rendered when they were obvious to me for efficient workflow during production. Secondary characters were designed more loosely to meet budget and deadline constraints.
With a background in video game development, this looser way of working was new to me, and it really helped me build speed and confidence.
Genre: historial fiction, magic realism. Based on historical chinese pirates.
Target: adults and youg adults.
