Monster with a Job Character Design
Initially a college assignment to design a basic turnaround model sheet for a 3D character to be modelled and rigged in Maya, I went on and developed the character for more expressive presentation and exploration of their life and family that I couldn't do in college.
A character model sheet of Penny Pitcher, a pitcher plant inspired monster.
Some snippets into Penny and her family's lives:
Penny is a learner driver and shop manager of her mother's cafe/laundromat hybrid business. Her mother runs the business, her father drives a bus, and her sister is a rough teen.
Penny's mother about to offer assistance to an old potato lady and Penny in the background bringing up an issue to one of her staff.
Some of the developmental work and character silhouettes.
