Hiya. I am studying a diploma of screen and media. We have been given a brief "to design a character that looks different in form to a human" and then gain feedback on the Silhouette Character Designs that you have created from a professional forum. Keep in mind that I am new to this, have had to relearn the latest Photoshop CC (my last Photoshop was CS4). Please and thank you

    You have a very interesting imagination :)

    It's tough, but try to refrain from diving into internal details like fingernails or shading yet. Silhouettes are a good exercise because they force you to simplify the design into larger masses.  A strong silhouette will read equally well when reduced to a very small size. It may actually help for you to start drawing small, and then enlarge your silhouettes as necessary.

    Keep going!

    Yes, you are correct. I did spend too much time on fingernails. It was my first time using photoshop cc on one of the characters. I was playing with the brushes and wacom tablet rather than concentrate on the actual brief. Thank you
