I'm going to try a scrap tissue paper/thick card stock version of Onett. I want to avoid cardboard. While it's a pretty standout look, it automatically reminds me of Yoshi Story.
The sketch was quick and experimental, so here is some other stuff I plan on doing that isn't in the concept-
I might try to bring the colors together a bit with lighting, and I plan on adding transitions and trim type stuff to the buildings. Right now they are a bit plain.
I'll also try to stuff some polys in there and make it not so low poly, planes of grass and whatnot. I'm planning on adding some "painted" areas and light patterns to make some materials like brick a bit more complex.
I also want to bend the models a bit to make the buildings seem a little more paper like (a tad unsteady), and some misc (gradients and whatnot).
I'd rather not mix any non-paper materials into the scene, but any other suggestions would be killer!
