Description
Character Rotation of my character Alexa. Front, 3/4 front, side, and rear view. Also showing
head size. Again, this was done for my Character & Object Design Final Project. But I'll also be using all of the work I did for the project as character reference for her when I draw the comic.Head size is the measurement used in character proportioning. The measurement on the left hand side of the page is HEAD measurements relating to her size, **NOT** feet. She is 6.5 heads tall when you *draw* her, not 6'6" as in physical size of the actual character thanks
Materials/Time:
- BLP art board
- mechanical pencil
- 2 hours

Using the head size never works for me. I always just draw what looks right. If it looks wrong, I jsut claim it's forshortened or something.... I love her design. She does look like she's standing at attention on the side view. He neck needs a little more curve, at least that's what I think..... mine always come out a little too curved *sigh* lol

LOL we had to draw them as if they would be used for basic 3D modelling, hence why she's so stiff :

Wow, I would hate to stand like that! ALL THE TIME

This really helped me out for my portfolio. I wasn't totally sure how to do character rotations. Thanks!

you'll need to sort out that numbering down the side sweetheart ... I assume its not in feet, cos her head would be a full foot then. and normally, the numbers start at the foot and work up ...

No, in head count on character sizing, it starts at the top of the head and goes down the body to the feet. And in the description it explains the measurements ^___^ (kiss)

its a nice design
but she strikes me as a bit short
although she does looks pretty well proportioned.

She's about 5'9 (my height) but it's the pants I have on her in this basic design

... a remarkable job on all of your drawings, a great set with some real personality... I like how she's not your typical 8-heads superhero, I think the shorter figure comes across as more believable and identifiable...

I never understood why they were all 7 and 8 heads lol

I've always been told that I should use the headsize to measure the rest of the body, but I've always been terrible at that. I try to observe drawings that I like and see how their headsizes are proportionate to the body, and I've found a lot of the time, that they REALLY like to stretch the legs and torso out. ^^

While it looks good, I probably would have flipped the guns for easier access?

The way the holsters are designed, she reaches, flips the snap holding them in the holster with her thumbs, and whips them out

She's quite compact at 6 1/2 heads but everything fits in where it should based on what I learned in life drawing/anatomy classes. Looks pretty good, all up.
Her foot on the side view looks a bit off. Not enough heel, maybe?
π: 0 β©: 1
Head size is relative to the character themselves, not all characters
Hmm the heel looks okay. I duno

Great job Mecha! Bit of advice though, she looks a bit stiff because her arm (side view) is perfectly vertical. Arms actually don't hang like that (which I learned recently)

The important thing is her stature. Shoulders back, head up face forward

Yep, I understand that's the point of the rotation. Just thought you might like a tip. Heh, it certainly came as news to me.
π: 0 β©: 1
No no hhe.... I meant that's why I drew her so stiffly there

Ohhhh, hehe. Gotcha. Hehe! Sorry.

Ahh I love concept sheets, mainly cause I can't do them
