finalized & polished character designs

here's a lineup with names and height comparisons; first i did a colored first pass but it didn't come out too good:

i took it back to black and white, as the game is in b&w and polished them up. here are the finalized polished characters in a lineup:

first pass finalizations - characters

after talking about the sketches in class and getting feedback on what were the most appealing characters, and reassessing what qualities and characteristics were most important to me and most relevant to the visions i had or the essences i had coined of the characters, i did these drawings. i gave each character a more refined idea of what i wanted with 2 extra ideations before settling on one and doing a sideview and some kind of action drawings to start to get a feel for the characters. their names were also settled in this pass.
