Our Approach to Game Character Design?
Be the project is for cartoon character design or fantastical/sci-fi character design, as the top game character design agency, we have talented character designers onboard, who follow a foolproof process framework that helps us meet your game character art standards.
-
1
Ideation
Our character artists first understand your character design requirements, do research and find inspiration, define the character’s backstory, personality, and role, and conduct brainstorming sessions to generate character design ideas.
-
2
Character Art Style Finalizing
Based on the character’s backstory, personality, role, era it belongs to, and game concept, artists come up with the art style (from realistic, stylized, low-poly, anime, cartoonish, etc.) that is best for your project and elevates the impression of your game.
-
3
Thumbnail Creation
Then, we create small, rough sketches (thumbnails) to experiment with various shapes, sizes, and silhouettes. This step is all about exploring many possibilities quickly without getting bogged down in details and visualizing the character’s basic form.
-
4
Character Concept Art Creation
Based on the thumbnail iterations, we choose the most promising one to refine into more detailed concept art with the character’s clothing, accessories, and props that reflect its personality and story. We may conduct multiple iterations to finalize the look.
-
5
Character Sheet
After finalizing the character concept art, we develop a character sheet that includes multiple views of the character (turnarounds), showing them from the front, back, and sides with a range of facial expressions to capture the character’s emotional range.
-
6
Coloring
Explore various base colors to determine the most suitable palette for the character that suits its appearance and characteristics. For example, for a heroic character, we may choose bold, vibrant colors, while a villain might have darker, more subdued tones.
-
7
Rendering
In this final step, we add intricate details and realistic lighting to the character design. This includes textures, shading, and highlights to enhance the 3D and depth of the character, with final polishing, making the character ready to be integrated into the game.
