Emily's Plague: Collaboration - Part 1

Alongside my own project I was asked by Emma if I would be willing to get involved with hers. She needed me to character design for the Plague Doctors. There were to be three of them, however she wanted them to all look exactly the same except for height, so I was able to just create one main design.

After much discussion and sharing mood-boards & ideas with one another, I decided to first get a turnaround sheet complete so that Emma had it there ready for when she came to animating the characters.



At this point, Emma was not looking for coloured versions because she had not yet settled on colour palettes, so I made sure to at least give her this line work to have as reference. 

Later on down the line, I also produced some reference sketches that were relevant with the context of the animation, so that it made animating these characters some what easier. 






Outcome 

This was a really enjoyable job to have, because it was once again another opportunity for me to focus purely on character design. I saw this as a time for me to try and develop my portfolio further as well as get involved in another project. This is a character unlike many of the others I have previously designed, so I found this to be a challenge, but I took a lot away from it!
