Description Basically I had a silly idea to sort of design characters for a fighting game. The main overall theme would be food... basically a character would be based around a specific type of food, with a playstyle kinda sort based around it as well. Obviously wouldn't be super accurate to actuality or anything, but that was the overall idea.

This was the first thought to come to my mind: an archer based around a carrot. The basic idea was that carrots were... kinda pointy, so why not shoot them off like arrows. Plus, archers in fighting games always seemed like interesting characters. Ideas I had for attacks were a mixture of long-ranged arrow shots, quick slashes with a carrot-shaped dagger for short-range, and possibly shooting out carrots that would plant themselves as traps for opponents. All rough ideas, really.

This dude here is sort of a mixture of various ideas, and I actually thought of making him a girl at first, but things changed and I liked the goatee too much. The basic idea was to have the hair sort of be the green stuff on the end of a carrot, and then sort of copy-paste some ideas found via Google Images when typing in "archer" (I forgot it was also the name of a cartoon). I'm actually kind of happy with this, though the legs are pretty crap and I think they're too short. Oh well.

Next up, maybe another food design, who knows.

Food is always a cool place to get design inspiration from. I say as I have never tried it :(
