Stages of First finished concept art, from the line drawing, brush strokes, making a brush and filling in minor details and altering the end image to create the result I wanted














Two great photo images I found online with really interesting angles, looking high up at the buildings which seem to dominate the scene.
I am considering using these in the previous concept art that I uploaded photos of and altering them to fit into the piece.

Reference Photo

Really nice shot of a buddhist temple. I'd like to use this as a reference for one of my concept arts.

Inspirational Character Sheets

My favourite one that I found, Unfrotunately it will be hard to reach a concept art of this level for the characters, but the layout and idea for the poses and extra pieces inspires me a lot.

Really nice, stylised character sheet with the static views and also a bigger, whole pose on the right. This also has a nice description with sketches and poses to go along with it.

Simple, clearly not professional, but nice front, side and back views with a range of different facial emotions.

Post-Formative

It was clear at my formative assessment that I have been spending a lot more time on concept art work rather than Character Design. By the end of it, it was decided that I should swap my primary role with my secondary role so that I would be doing 3 concept arts and 1 Character instead of the other way around.
