This is my character Cornelius, who is loosely based off my logo.
The process took on a very strange turn as quick sketches looked more unique than a traditional 2D design - like disney or wheres my water. I tried to then push for a geometric silhouette design based off late 90s cartoon mixed with a classic 2d animation approach to volume.
He quickly developed a temper during the sketch phase, which derived from my own frustration during the process, and i kept that personality and ran with it, making him a short tempered greedy bartender, and i think its pretty funny.
