Character Design - Brother



Initial character silhouettes.  I preferred the silhouettes with larger eyes and heads as the character has to instantly convey their emotion to the player which will be more difficult to achieve with realistic proportions. However I don't want to risk pushing these proportions too far as I could risk the designs becoming unappealing (as seen in the character design in my previous concept art post.)  I want the brother character to come across as fairly young and innocent which is also easier to achieve by using the wide innocent eyes of this design.



Some variations of the final designs.  I personally like the variant on the left best as he still looks young enough to be quite cute and innocent however the glasses make him appear old enough to be adventurous and go off exploring (and thus get in to all kinds of supernatural trouble his sister has to save him from.)
