Me and Emma have recently sat down and had a discussion about which characters we wanted to go with. We decided that we wanted to go with an animal character, and more precisely focused on deers and giraffes as we like the tall slim figure that they have. We also thought that a child deer/giraffe would look more appealing struggling to walk as they are generally quite clumsy animals. So we whipped up a few designs.
Deer Design
We couldn't decide on which we liked better. We liked the interesting design of the deer and it's antlers, but we liked the pattern on the skin of the giraffe, so we had the ingenious idea to combine the two animals into a Giraffelope.

Having decided on the character design we made start on making T-poses of the characters so we could use them as image planes when it came to modelling. I got Emma to create her T-pose first so I could base the shape and style of my character on her's. Here is the result.

Now that we've got our characters sorted I feel much more comfortable with the progress of our project. Now all that we've got left to consider is our environments and sound design before we can get started with modelling and animating.
