The Eldrige Egg: Collaboration Part 2

After establishing the look of the character, I began creating the relevant turnaround sheets. I began by focusing on the character's body without clothes, because this would not only make it easier for the sculptor, but it would also allow me to work from the body upward when drawing the clothing.

This also meant I would have to draw each sheet out fully three times, as I would already have the base to work from!

Once these had been signed off my Callum and Hayley, I then added colour. They said this wasn't essential, however in regards to colour reference to them & portfolio work for me, I thought it worth the extra time!

I then provided animated versions of these turn arounds as a way of providing more reference . I found getting involved with this project was really rewarding, but also challenging at the same time. I had never produced character designs for a stop-motion animation before, so there was a lot more to think about in terms of the character's sustainability. 

It was then really exciting to see this character be created in 3D and placed with in his environment! This character was also very unlike a lot of my previous designs, so I feel it will add some diversity to my reel!
