Meet my character Eli. He is an arctic grey penguin, who loves to listen to music all the time. Eli isn’t always the greatest listener too, as he is always getting into fights with the other members of his pack. Eli is very happy and cheerful despite his trouble making. He can be very helpful and is very protective when it comes to the ones he loves and cares most about.
Eli isn’t very much favored by his group. He once got into a fight with his pack leader as to why he has a scar on his face. He also has bruises above his eye, because he also clumsy and plays around too much.
Coming up with the design for the character was actually hard for me. I had many ideas, but none of them seemed to come to on paper. I went from looking at ideas of video games to looking at my own characters I have created in the past. I wanted to draw something simple yet a little challenging, because using adobe is not my best strength. Since I mostly use other drawing apps, like Krita, Clip Studio Paint, Sai Paint Tool, etc. I wanted to push myself a little to create something that I know I might have a little difficulty making my character walk. I love to challenge myself because I think it makes me strong and I will be able to improve my skills.
Here is my original character for my series called “High School of Mysteries.” His name is Makoto Ikeda and he is 15 years old. He has a best friend named Saburou Ono and has dreams of becoming a youth detective. Unfortunately drawing him in adobe animate would be too difficult at the moment, but one day I do hope to achieve that goal.
Here is another original character I have also designed. Her name is Hanami Inoue. She is 15 years old as well and has a very huge crush on Makoto; however, after finding out that he doesn’t feel the same way about her, she goes ballistic.
Here is also sketches of as you may know orange from the game “Among Us,” which is currently popular right now along with fall guys. I did want to use this design at first, but I wanted to challenge myself to create a character originally done by me.
