Character Design: Animals

For this lesson we designed animals, looking at there characteristics and shapes to draw them accurately, before combining them to make hybrids that would suit their environment and the animals they are. I got assigned a rhino first, and looked at how to portray its round, but tough body, then I had to portray a rhino/ tiger hybrid, which at first I tried to make it more bulky like the rhino but got told to make it more stealthy for the tiger. Finally I got assigned to make hybrid animals for a swamp, which I mostly looked at predators, such as hornbills and snapping turtles.
