6 ways to give yourself feedback to your character concept art 👀
Put the 🧙 on a background from the game in your target style.
Place your 🧙 in the middle of a row of 5 comparable characters in target style.
Send your concept to the target device (mobile phone, TV) and view it on that screen in the size in which the 🧙 is supposed to be in game.
Imagine your 🧙 animated: can they run? Jump? Fight? Will any model's parts penetrate other parts during the most frequently used animations?
Place your 🧙 next to other 🧙's from games in similar style - is its game function readable? Is it simple enough (complex, threatening, etc.)? Is it possible yet to “tune up” the readability of their function?
How can you simplify the design w/o losing the readability of its image or function?
