After having made a steven universe scene, I decided to analyse the characters and make one of my own as well.
First I always start with a styleguide, fully analysing the artstyle to correctly interpret it.
I then started designing my own character, looking at existing faces and combining them to see which I liked best.
I had a view in my head about how I wanted their body to look like, but I made multiple iterations to find the perfect fit.
Since SU very much focusses on colors, I chose a few gems and based my colors off of them, finding the perfect gem.
The final front and side view iteration.
The final video displaying my character in 3D with some mixamo animations. NEED TO RETOPOLOGIZE!
