The final one is a little bit ordinary and it's missing that mojo to make it shine under the spotlight. It's a nice drawing, but it needs something more. Personally, I think if you went with number two, and made it look like a sort of "my little pony" cutesy type creature, this would probably be alot more catchy because everyone can already asociate with where your character comes from.

When you design a character, try to look at other characters in games and ask yourself, which characters are catchy, and which characters are just there as fillers. Don't make a filler. They wouldn't do anything for your portfolio. Try to find something that other people would love. In this light, 2, 3, and 5 have a lot of potential for this:)

Nice work otherwise. It's great that you made many concepts to choose from:thumb:

Said the same, 2 and 5 had the best potential.

well you seem to have changed your concept allready, just you havnt posted it up here.


Shall other people post they're concept also or not? just wondering.

I thought, not much going on here at the moment, might as well... maybe it was a bad idea...

ah, nice combination:) His face is looking a lot cuter now and the squerral type body was a great addition. What if you put a single large mushroom on his head? This would make it look like one of those asian type farming hats? Perhaps this could be interesting?
