More Sketch work

 Quick character sketch work as you can see I've stuck with the stylized concept I had touched up briefly earlier, just trying to flesh him out a bit more. As you can see from his hat he's Russian ;). he's actually a rework of a older character I created. See Below:
Whether I have time to animate his mate though I have no clue we will see how it goes.


Facial sketch (possible for lip sync) and movement thumb : Helps to quickly jot these down, any angle any situation. Can create character facets and generate interesting ideas.

 Slightly more developed sketch looks like hes vaulting over something . Note: Just thought i'd say it now before anybody goes on about stereotypes  yes he is supposed to play up to some stereotypes. But I see them in a positive way. I want him to be easily recognizable as a character and I want any symbols or clothing to emphasize his occupation or personality. Obviously he is a figment of imagination, I doubt the Soviet Army Pre and/or during cold war had any practitioners of parkour  who were also mechanics, so don't take him too seriously please. As an avid history fan/ history student I've had my fair few scrapes with Russian history during my A level days, I'm by no means an expert do not get me wrong but somethings you just don't forget coming by information wise.

 Torso design, I feel the shape of this really needs to be right for the character to look effective, I think its going to be something I will be focusing on in later sketch work
