Character design prompt:
Design a character, anything you can think of! Can be within any sort of time period, style, world. No limits other than using mostly that one colour that you picked.
There’s no limits on colours either. Multiple people can design characters for one colour. This is just a prompt to get your juices flowing.
Be sure to tag your post #swatchlife or submit it to this blog to be sure it shows up here, we want to show off everyone’s characters.
Feel free to connect with other artists as well! In the future we hope to have mini prompts for you like collabs and other fun things!
In the mean time, be creative and design some new characters!
For a side blog prompt: design a character based off a colour. Check out @swatchlife
Bronze is an energetic person who enjoys both his own company and the company of others. He’s self conscious but very good at keeping everyone’s spirits up. He’s very naive and is easily taken advantage of for his generosity. Can be a bit feeble-minded, but is charming and endearing enough to get by. A regular old boy-scount kind of guy. Very simple. He works as a lumberjack.
Backstory time: I made Bronze six years ago for a group on DeviantArt. The group impacted me a lot during college and I didn’t draw much else for a good two years. The group has since disbanded and I really missed Bronze, so I wanted to create something to put him in. I’m sure I’ll find a comic to draw him in, but for the meantime I wanted to light the fires of inspiration once more to create characters based off colours again.
My best and favourite sketches from February. I had a lot this month, so I just made two files instead of filling up your dashes. Yes I really like drawing my characters like if they were in my favourite cartoons. Bronze turned out so well I might use him for gemsona week. Maybe.
