Hello creative community and friends,
Here is an original character that I made for today's prompt : Woodsy Guide
My idea is a mysterious character from the pine forest who does not interact much nor give a ton of clues. Those who seek guidance must be very careful not to waste their limited chance and number of times they can throw some questions.
I used a pine cone as the body of the character then covered it with a green cloak with sharp and pointy edges. This character is like a sage filled with knowledge of the forest. The collar is a light green spread of foliage which is very regal and awe-inspiring.
Despite the description I mentioned about its demeanor this character can provide gems of clues and guides that are truly very helpful.
Hope you like it and I encourage you to participate in this challenge.
"Charactober" is a creative challenge similar to Inktober but focused on character design. During Charactober, artists and creators take on the challenge of designing and illustrating a new character every day throughout the month of October. This challenge is a great way for artists to build a diverse portfolio of characters.
🌟 Charactober Prompts: Whispering Glen 🌟
To help you define your original characters I came up with a theme called "Whispering Glen" which suggests a tranquil, natural setting with a serene atmosphere. The term "whispering" implies soft, hushed sounds, often associated with rustling leaves, gentle breezes, or murmurs of the natural world. "Glen" typically refers to a narrow, secluded valley, often lush and green.
So, "Whispering Glen" evokes an image of a quiet, picturesque valley where the wind carries gentle whispers through the trees and the landscape is serene and enchanting. It's a name that conveys a sense of peacefulness and a touch of mystery, making it a fitting choice for an enchanting woods in a character design challenge.
