My second batch of silhouettes was a lot more loose than my first. I felt that to buy myself time I had to be more loose and illustrative with my silhouettes. The first 10 were hard and the last 20 came easier. I found 7 that I wanted to iterate from this batch and with the time I saved on the silhouettes I put into more detailed iteration.
I am so glad to be over the silhouette stage of the project as I have so many more ideas for the iteration stage. My favourite iterations are the banshee, the first masked/cloaked figure and the tree/octopus. I think the masked figures and the wooden stag are influenced greatly from the temple spirits in the Legend of Zelda series and from the forest spirit in Princess Mononoko.
From here I will select my favourite characters from both batches of character iterations and iterate them further, possibly doing a mini character portrait for each.
