Production

Okay, after the hand in for pre-production phewww........it's now time to start production. Although i was semi happy with the stage my characters were at in the final stages of pre-prod they still needed to be developed!












These characters are still not final i just wanted to have a base so i could then put them into poses!



This is a line up of how the characters could look, they don't quite fit yet they look as if they are a little scaled to fit where as i just want to draw them on the same page so they fit!




I did quite a few initial pose sheets to discover a few of the characters were quite difficult to put into poses, so over these sheets my characters changed quite a lot. Now to follow are some character model sheets that will help me with sizing and any additional features that character might have.










I am really happy with these characters now and their size, i used Fernando's head as a guide for all the characters seen as it is his circus so all the characters should fit in with him!

Now here are a selection of character poses and expressions, i have it in mind to come back at the end and chose my final, favourite poses to make neater so they can go in the book :D









No animation would be possible without the character turnarounds, so here they are........









Now with all the proper sizing in mind i could do a final line up, which i am really happy with, the characters now 'sit' better with each other.
