Task 1 - Character Design
Instruction
we should completed this game.
In this course, we are required to create three characters and also need to search for relevant inspiration boards.
I want to create three characters related to animals.
These are the pictures I found as references.
moodboard:
Based on this, I created these several characters.
role1 : Bobo is a cheerful, big-hearted puppy who treats every day like a delivery mission for kindness. Curious and energetic, he loves exploring new paths, meeting neighbors, and helping whenever someone’s having a rough moment. He’s brave in small, practical ways—digging, fetching, and figuring things out fast—and his wagging tail is basically his signature. Favorite things: making friends, solving little problems, and snacks he “totally didn’t steal.”
role 2 : Tuan-Tuan is a calm, cozy kitten with a quiet confidence and a powerful purr. She’s observant, gentle, and surprisingly clever—often noticing worries before anyone says a word. Tuan-Tuan can turn any space into a safe, warm spot, and she believes comfort is a kind of superpower. Favorite things: sunny windows, soft blankets, and listening to the world like it’s a bedtime story.
role 3: Mimi is a bright, determined bunny who calls herself a “carrot magician,” because she’s great at turning problems into plans. She’s quick-thinking, hardworking, and a little dramatic in a fun way—always ready to jump in, organize, and encourage others. Mimi believes effort is real magic, and her upbeat attitude helps everyone feel braver. Favorite things: tidy gardens, clever inventions, and crunchy carrots shaped like stars.

I use Illustrator to draw and color.
final project
Rationale
This artwork focuses on cartoon animal characters, including a dog, a cat, and a rabbit. The main purpose of this work is to create a friendly and warm feeling through simple and cute character designs, making the illustration visually comfortable and easy to connect with.
During the creation process, I started with line art and focused on basic proportions, poses, and facial expressions. I used clean and simple lines to build the characters. In the coloring stage, I chose warm color tones to make the characters look gentle and to keep the overall image consistent. Colors were used not only to separate the characters, but also to show their different personalities.
In terms of style, I aimed to keep the line thickness and color brightness consistent so that the three animals look like part of the same illustration series. Through the process from line drawing to final artwork, this piece shows my understanding of character design and visual consistency.
REFLECTION
Through this class assignment, I better understood the importance of the whole creative process. From line art to the final colored version, every step affects the result. I also realized that a good artwork is not finished in one try, but through continuous thinking and adjustment. This experience gave me more confidence and encouraged me to try more ideas in future projects.
