Character Design for London based Studio

Here are some of the work I have done as character designer for a London based studio. The final client being really sensible about confidentiality issue, I have deleted all informations revealing the title of the project and the client's name.

The brief insisted about how the characters and groups of characters will have to be immediately recognisable. As the storyline focused on streets sports I've seek inspiration in streets Arts and graffitis as well in Hip-Hop, Surf, Skate Punk codes for thoses ones. They are all inscribed in a trapezoidal shape. I also wanted flowing lines so they could fit nicely in the animation of action scenes.

The sames, inked.
Another group, inscribed in an inversed triangle. They are quite different of the humans because they are not, er, human-beings.



The baddies

At least, a colour study.
