Below is the first concept design of the main character that I chose to run with – Ollie Owl.
There have been a few – though not many – changes to his final design since this concept. For example, I got rid of the textures, as I felt they made him look a bit off as well as making the software I was using lag when doing simple actions such as moving him or copying and pasting him. Due to issues with the colouring, I also changed the colour of his beak and head dress so that they would match and seem to blend in with each other.
This is the final design I came up with for Ollie. I have added wings to him, however, he will have the same stance as the first design when they are tucked away. I also added feet, which will be visible when the wings are tucked away too. I gave Ollie a slight green tinge over all as I wanted him to look unique and exotic – a style that quite literally matches his eyes.
