The final look of my character in colour in four different angles. And i can now finally say, this is the final out outcome of my character.




Synopsis

Name: Rad


Age 13


Story: Rad is one of three students sent to a countryside called Pick- Pock where young individuals study. The reason for this is the fact that kids who are obligated to spend six months at Pick- Pock weren’t doing very well in the educational centre they were in. And so they are sent to Pick Pock to keep them in Pick- Pock shape of learning where they can take back that education status to their original educational centre were they first came after the 6 months is up. As the kids settle into this new environment, things appear not so charming as what it had said in the brochure! The new kids do not know that around Pick- Pock countryside, lays a startling device positioned and formed into illusion cubes at different areas in the Village. Rad makes the silly mistake by accidentally activating one of the illusion cubes and allowing all chaos to break loose around the countryside!


Rad’s profile: Rad is an adventurous young 13 year old that enjoys playing and seeking new things to entertain him. The only problem is that, the things he seeks tend to get him into a lot of trouble, which is why that was a major part to play in him being sent to Pick- Pock’s educational centre. He’s hard hearing and hardly listens and believes he knows best.


Friends of Rad point of view: Friend’s of Rad finds him annoying and plain stupid. One of Rad’s friends said: “Even though in most cases, he knows what the outcome of a circumstance would be like… But he still approaches the situation in a dumb way and nearly killing not only himself, but the people around him”

Another of Rad’s friend said, “If you even try to have a decent conversation with Rad, it is like talking to a statue as in… Even though his body is alive and moving, but his brain is as lifeless as a statue, nothing seems to get through.





I decided to search up kilts to see whether or not i should incorporate it on my character. I liked the outcome of it on my character and so i decided to keep it.

A front and back view of my character including different face expressions.


After watching the famous cartoon series called 'Hey Arnold' an idea came into my head about another character design. The more i began to watch this cartoon was the more my character began to develop into
something else as you can see.

For some strange reason, this character popped into my head after i had watched a show called Naruto. I decided to draw the character in different positions and also trying to figure out what personality does this character have. I'd say that he's clumsy but skilled in fighting.
I began researching combat clothes and so i decided to type in karate clothing in google search engine and this is what i came up with.

I had researched reference pictures to help me modify my character's look. The pictures i researched were nerd's and doctor's outfits. It helped me paint a picture of what my character's personalities are.


The cartoon picture from the left is one of the character's from the hit TV series Dexter's laboratory.

I chose this as a reference for the simple fact that the drawing looks really simplified and so i chose it.

So after observing the references i found, i began to construct this new nerdy character of mine little by little. I decided to make a transition from the influence of Fat-albert to a nerdy character. I have never done a character like this before, and it seems to fume my excitement and so that is the reason behind this sudden change of character look.

Synopsis


NAME: Greedy


AGE: 13


Profile: A 13 year old nerd who likes the visual appearance of a female. Unlike most nerds, Greedy seeks the knowledge of how to date multiple females at the same time. The only problem is, he finds it hard to get a positive responds from a girl when he tries to ask her out. He's done everything from going on a - (how to chat up a girl course) from the website, www.let-me-show-you-how.com.

And also, reading books, tuning in to Oprah and last but not least, watching Dawson's creek. You'd think someone that is able to solve quadratics equations and has gotten an A in Rocket science could without a doubt solve a problem like this. One thing what Greedy has to understand is that, girls aren't numbers that accumulates or equate by mathematical thinking. Only time will tell, if Greedy figures out what i have just wrote before he approaches a girl in a way he will quickly regret which then it'll be to late to fix the mess what could potentially be his worst fear come true!…. Having his heart broken and turning gay!


In this stage, i proceeded to draw head shapes in different positions. I wanted to get use to drawing head positions. So i began drawing them and look what we have.
