Character Design Sketches

Here's something different from the stuff I usually post on this blog. These are some sketches from my character design class. We spend about 3-4 hours just drawing quick sketches from live models in costume. We've had a lot of awesome models in fun costumes, so it's a really enjoyable time.

Right now all my sketches are of girls, because we've only had a male model once, and I was having a bad day that day so none of those drawings are worth sharing. Girls are more fun to draw anyway.

That drawing on the right is not upside-down. The model actually stood on her head, perfectly still, for 3 minutes. I was freaking out about it, saying, "guys! guys! look!" The teacher, completed unfazed, calmly looked over and asked her, "yoga?" "Yeah," she replied.
