Character thumbnails

some character concept stuff

I've been focusing more on the character design for this project, so here are a few sketches so far. They still need more refining especially in style at this point:

Mood Boards

Here are a few compilations of pictures used for referencing the characters and areas in the story, these, along with the writer and other group member's gathered pictures, will be used for the design aesthetic:

Story intro

For this assignment our group is required to help make a pitch bible for Ali Burns's story called 'Robot Witch.'
 Quick rundown:

The story centres around a robotic witch who's aim is to become a better witch and help those around her. She is accompanied by a companion named Gloob and lives in a half mechanical half witchy-looking house on an island in the middle of a lake. Beyond the lake is the Robot City, the Witches Coven and a human colonisation. She is trying to gain acceptance from these different groups and comes up against moral choices when using her magic.

Characters:

Friendly:
Gloob - companion who revived Robot Witch, doesn't speak
Merv - an strongly built but insecure merman who protects the lake around Robot witches house
enemies/neutral:
Sonya - a cyborg trying to become as human as possible + lack of empathy - robot city leader
Orion - Intends to be well meaning but stubborn and sets rules in a dictatorship fashion - head of witches coven
