Harriet Wilson's Studio work : Thinking how to present my characters

Looking at some existing model and character sheets

During a conversation I had with my tutor after I got my feedback for BA3a and we spoke about my project and he told me it may be best for my to avoid doing a art book type final piece so I have been trying to think of different ways that I could possibly present my character designs instead. After a little time having a think about my different options the most obvious thing that stood out to me was if I created model sheets of my designs. An art book, either for a video game or a film is a large amount of work created by a multitude of different artists that shows more finalised concepts that actually anything that came before as that work would be far too rough to put into a book so in actually think model sheets would be a better way to present my characters. So essentially I think at the end of my project I will now be aiming to produce a few model sheets and probably a final piece to sum everything up.

I have done a little bit of initial research into this type of design production so I can have some influence earlier on in the process before I actually start doing my character design. I have tried to get a good collection of different model and character sheets from anime, video games, and animated films that have different art styles so that I could have a good look at how each character has been layed out and what elements have been added like expressions or different clothing designs, things like that. I think these will come in handy to refer back to when a get a little further into the design side of my project so I will keep having a look at them for reference.
