Hey! So, last time, we landed on these candidates:
A knight crab, a space scavenger raccoon, and a courtier owl. I said I would iterate on all 3 of them. I decided to write down what exactly I'd like to change before jumping in. Here are those iterations!
THE CRAB
I dunno why I decided to randomly add a tail here, it just felt right.
THE RACCOON
AND FINALLY, THE OWL
I feel that we might be starting to cook here. Here's where we're at in this process:
[x] Pick 3 animals
[x] Do studies of those animals. Takes notes on any defining characteristics that could be included in an anthro version (1 hr)
[x] Do studies of anthro art (30 minutes)
[x] Create 3 anthro designs (1 per animal)
[x] Iterate on them each of them once
[ ] Pick the one I like most
[ ] Iterate on it 2 more times
[ ] Make a cool drawing of it, where I vary up the angle and pose a bit
The next step is to pick out the one I like most, and then I have to iterate on that design 2 more times. I think I'll iterate on the "career" outfit once more and then make a more casual outfit for them too, because I've always been super into the idea of fantastical characters wearing casual outfits.
Also, Mali McMew pointed out on the last post that we might be sleeping on some fem crab. I think we might indeed be sleeping on fem crab here. I'm gonna focus on the main steps of this project, but I'll see if I can cook up a fem crab sketch somewhere along the way.
Til the next post!!
