Character Development: EDDIE – From Concept to Persona

This sketchbook spread provides insight into the early development stage of the character, Eddie, showcasing my approach to pre-production. The page features initial sketches, pose ideation, and exploration of contrasting concepts (such as the red hair and skull prop) that define his character.

The study includes notes on potential appearance changes (‘Eddie’s hair design change’) and style exploration (‘RED HAIR gang’). I work to systematically develop a character’s visual identity and personality before moving on to the final design, an essential skill for a career in concept art and visual storytelling.
