Robot Character study

These are some sketches from a book I'm working on. I love this little guy.

What a cute character. He seems sweet and sorta clumsy too. Would love to see him in color...

He's adorable! You get such a sense of personality from these sketches.

The only suggestion I have would be to consider (if you haven't) giving him eyelids, or eyes that can change shape a little, or something ... otherwise the round-circle-with-a-dot-in-the-middle may make him look like he's constantly staring wide-eyed in fear/shock/dismay/whatever.

I'd eat at his restaurant! ^_^

Dot said...

well, he generally IS wide eyed in dismay, but point taken :)

I'll post a color one here at some point. Well, here's a quicky coloring job i did just for an Illustration Friday entry--i dont know exactly how i'm going to finally color him. I've been holding off on doing color til i get the dummy pencil sketches for the whole thing done, because i know how i tend to change things (like ya know, he might end up with eyelids, hehe)

thanks!

This robot is adorable!...and quite good at multi-tasking! Maybe he could come hang out at my house for a while!
