The objective of this character design project was to design an anthropomorphic animal character with a profession or societal role, giving them telling clothes accessories, body language, and facial expression.  

First we did gestural, color, and structure studies of two different animals we chose. I chose the gerenuk and sifaka. 

We then narrowed down our choices to one animal, doing exaggerated studies of heads and bodies.
