Video Reference 2

Some more video reference for water:




I'm starting to pick up references for how I imagine my Water Nymph to move, as it's more animalistic in design I have chosen to look at Sea Otters!

Storyboard Sneak Peek!

Here is just a little teaser as to what the storyboard is going to look like! I plan to clean it up quite a bit before I move onto the animatic stage however...

Here are the first version of the boards, I will upload the rest when I am finished clean up! [Edit: Upload Rest of slides when Clean]












Rejected panels below. Both are unfinished as I decided to go in a different direction with my piece.

Colour Test 1

Here are a few very quick colour versions of the character. I think I will keep with more blue/aqua colours for future tests...

Final Character Design

The final design for the character has been chosen! I have created a rough turn around for the Nymph, with solid black lines. This does not yet reflect the final style of the animation, as I wish to play with it a bit more before finalizing it.

This is just reference for me.

Further Character Development

After the initial sketching stage of the character design process, I have chosen a handful of concepts to further develop. I cleaned up the sketched lines and played with weight of lines for stylizing the work.

For the final character the lines will not be solid black, I opted for black for now just so I could get the shape and details down before I go any further. [More to be added-scans]
