Day of the Dead character design progress

For my character design project this year I picked three themes. I got the themes from a Facebook page called character design references and they hold these challenges every month with a different theme each time. So I picked: Dia de los Muertos, Post Apocalyptic, and Vampires. I'm finalising my ideas at the moment so here is my Dia de los Muertos character idea. I wanted to give the look of a split personality. Another entity taking over her and sharing her body. All of these characters are designed with the idea that they would be featured in a game. Not a specific game, but these are the types of characters that would fit in the video game world. My next project will be to put these characters in to environments that would also feature in the game.

Ghouley blobs and horned skeletons

Meet the blobbiest, most slimy ghoul ever. I thought this was a fun idea for one of the cards and what's not to like about a blobby ghoul? Not sure what powers he would have yet. I'm imagining a situation where he could throw up on another player's character causing temporary blindness. The utterly delightful things I think of! This is creepy, right? Thinking of making this a reaper sort of character. Jealous of the living.

New projects I'm working on

Back in uni, two new projects to do. The first being to design character/images for a made up table top card game. I've been greatly inspired by Andy Hunt's card game Necronomicards Click here to check it out It's a horror themed card game with monsters from all different cultures and mythologies. This theme is my kinda thing so I'm very excited to start creating these characters. The second project I'm working on is to design a book cover. Unsure of which story yet but it will be horror/thriller/mystery themed I can say that much .
