Hi,

I became interested in your course because I wanted to improve my illustration skills. Usually, when I designed something, it was more of flat vectors, and I always wanted to try a more stylized approach. I'm throwing in my character; my style is rather basic and simple, so that's how my character looks. :) I tried to capture as many details as I could. I drew three stylized versions, from which I chose my favorite. I focused on things I like - hence the capybara and Air Max sneakers (the best shoe shape). I cheated a bit, skipped one sketching step, and went straight to vectors; it's a bit easier for me to design this way.

I would be grateful for any feedback.

Thanks a lot for the course!

Best regards,
Marcel


This is my thought map.

Some mood board/things that I like. On this step, I've also builded the shape of my character.

3 character designs.


And final option with brushes and stuff.
Thank you :)
