SILHOUETTESI brainstormed on shape language and personality using silhouettes.

I wanted a character that was dangerous but level-headed and competent. So the final silhouette was a combination of 4,5, and 6. Which took the triangular, aggressive forms of 4 & 6 combined with the sturdy rectangular body of 5.

ROUGH CONCEPTS

Early color/helmet variations

Here I experimented with ideas and themes.

Initially it was going to be a dullahan, after trying some different helmets, I decided to go for a chimera/lion design.

The winner!!!
