Character Design with Stephen Silver

Here is a design of a charcter named Jerry Loomy based on a description provided by cartoonist Stephen Silver, for an assignment in his Character Design course (which I am currently taking).



These are the process shots. First the thumbnails and ideation sketches not shown here, then the cooncept sketch with notes on the character:



Then comes the construction Lines to help proprtion the character and give him form:



next a clean up sketch followed by the ink outline:





My main inspirations for the character based on the character brief were actors Danny Devito and George C. Scott. Hope you enjoyed it, thanks for stopping by.
