🦝💰 My design & interpretation of Sly Cooper! I imagine a reboot with a younger Cooper Gang, with only 1 or 2 successful heists completed. I envision this story taking place in a fictional & cartoony but still technologically-modern Paris.

pretty happy with how much I've learnt and grown recently, but I'm already seeing big things to work on and tackle next!

Full day of working on character design concepts! Realising how important it is to create iterative designs and expand upon them. Ultimately visdev artists are designers. It's all design to serve the story. Done some research into other production designers. Good work today!

Starting work on a new portfolio project! Final outcome will be a big cinematic visdev piece but I'm taking time to design characters in-depth first. These may change as I keep working on the project. This is 'The Giant'!
