Task 3: Character Creation, Execution


Week 11

Fig. 1-1 Nier Reincarnation

Since I chose Nier Reincarnation as a reference IP, I searched the design reference book and picked up some pages to incorporate design elements in the final compilation.


Week 12

Fig. 1-2 Reference from setting material book

From the reference, I extract some features, which are:

  • old paper background
  • san-serif for the detailed description
  • serif or special character for name and small title
  • minimal  and clean description
  • left alignment
  • overall muted color.....and so on
Figs. 1-3 work referring to material book

Final submission



Feedback

Week 11: No feedback

Week 12: The content is good. Include the final profile page in the compilation together.

Weeks 13-14: Already submitted

Reflection

I really enjoyed this compilation task because I could see the culmination of all that time and effort into this subject. To be honest, I still need to practice overall drawing, but I tried my best and noticed I like to design characters. Also searching references in the material design book is interesting. I went through a lot of trial and error with different texture materials to get close to the chosen IP, including typography with a sans-serif for explanation. I thought creating original characters while improving drawing skills might be good for my future.
