Character Design

How this character is designed?

Let me explain:

Everything begins with a paper and a pen. This may seem "old school" but you have to put your energy and concentrate on the character's identity first.

- "Who is this person?"

- "Where he or she is living?"

- "What date and time is it?"

- "What is his or her social status?"

- "What has to be the costume?"

- "What can be the accessories?"

and lastly "In which context he or she will appear?"

In the "Paris of Troy" case, this is (1) an historical figure, (2) lived in Hellenistic Period in Anatolia, and (3) teleported to our days as an artificial intelligence.

This character can be illustrated as a "Super Hero", wearing hellenic costumes & a cloak like the other super heroes. A nice and clean visage is needed. Also some accessories like a shield or sword can be added. Artificial Intelligence may not be emphasized at that step; because further work will follow; the character is still in development. Maybe Paris of Troy will even have his own Dribbble account... Who knows :)
