Character Concept Art by Mio part one
The main player controlled character Garrett was designed by Mio Furukawa. A talented graphic designer I met after I moved to Prague, Czech Republic from London, UK.
After a few false starts looking for a character concept artist. I’m so glad Mio lent her skills to my project.
I wasn’t looking for super detailed character sheets and turnarounds. I had a rough idea what I was looking for. I knew Mio could nail it with the right reference images, creative space and time.
I met Mio while she was doing life drawing sketches of people at my local church. So I knew her style was a match, luckily I was able to convince her to give my project a try.
So far, the main character Garrett has been finalised in 3D. I’m currently rigging the character for animation. This will be a full character rig including facial controls for full performance animation.
Mio now resides in Japan continuing to do awesome work of witch you can see here - Mio Furukawa. You can also buy some of her work here - Mio's Art | By Furukawa.
As you can see the main character is a black guy. The reason… I’m a black guy too. I’d like to make a game where the main character looks like me that’s it. That’s not to say Garretts story can’t be relatable to other people I believe it can. This is not a woke game there’s no agendas being pushed in this game. I’m personally sick of the woke agenda nonsense in all forms of media now, I’m not adding to it. My focus is to make an awesome super cool character in a very bold and enjoyable game.
Lastly, bit of a spoiler the black guy survives the game. No dying first or in the worst way 😂.
