As a Design student, I chose to explore character design. I have been drawing my entire life, and recently have been really invested in character design after seeing the masterful character designs in the video game series, Danganronpa. My goal was to create visually appealing characters that are recognizable, as it would enhance my creativity since character design is like building an entire human being from the ground up<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Progress Pictures:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-3.35.52-PM-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-329\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-3.35.52-PM-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-3.35.52-PM-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-3.35.52-PM-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-3.35.52-PM-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-3.35.52-PM-1568x882.png 1568w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-3.35.52-PM.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Character Design in Progress<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"834\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Orrock_Jack-Explorations-Project-White-BG-Character-Design-1024x834.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-330\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Orrock_Jack-Explorations-Project-White-BG-Character-Design-1024x834.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Orrock_Jack-Explorations-Project-White-BG-Character-Design-300x244.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Orrock_Jack-Explorations-Project-White-BG-Character-Design-768x626.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~JackO\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Orrock_Jack-Explorations-Project-White-BG-Character-Design.png 1150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Final Explorations Project<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> I had a blast with this project.
