In the Spring of 2023, as part of my Introduction to Illustration course, I embarked on a character design project that allowed full creative freedom, inspiring me to create a video game character heavily influenced by "The Legend of Zelda." I conceptualized a feral, neutral character, neither hero nor villain, who wears the skull and pelt of a defeated enemy, reflecting his survivalist ethos and connection to the natural world. His bird-like feet underscore his otherworldly nature, enhancing the visual narrative of his existence beyond human confines. This project not only demonstrated my ability to weave intricate narratives into design but also highlighted my skill in crafting visually compelling, unique characters that engage and resonate with diverse audiences.
