So we've all decided to take a character each and have a final(ish) design. Suzanne - Hipster Tom P- The Captain Kat - Burly Man Lynsey - Drunk Girl Tom G - Boy and Mum We've all mixed and matched coming up with designs for a few of the characters so swapping sketchbooks and ideas towards the final designs is definitely helping.

Here is a couple of Lynsey's lovely sketches... At first it was difficult for me to change anything cos I loved the design so much, but have managed to take the sketches I'd done earlier on and put them together. There was something in this sketch that I liked below.. Some more sketches later... Here I started to look at the way he might run. Started a rough model sheet.

The use of Silhouettes in Concept Design. Silhouette thumbnails are among the most helpful and productive methods of design when it's necessary to produce a large quantity of variations of concepts within a short period of time.

It's not a method used by all concept artist and it's certainly not a necessity to design a creature or a character purely based off of a silhouette shape. That doesn't go to say that all designers don't subconsciously focus on shapes and designs that make a strong impact on the viewer. We often refer to a silhouette as a black outlined shape, much like a shadow. This doesn't always need to be the case, as a simple line sketch or simple shades of value can still provide the same effect and are just as efficient.

Whether consciously or subconsciously we are always designing through the use of interesting dominate shapes that work well together.
