For Octobers character design challenge the theme was Aztec warrior. As usual I had a couple of rough pencil sketches and in the end just worked with a mash of a couple of them into one final illustration. I have a number of weekend model reference studies this is just another in a series. Finally I am big fan of animator @rocketboiart his characters really stand out. I did a weekend personal challenge I took one of his characters and did a small animation featuring her.
