Concept: Monkey Hero

This is the concept for a hero character in a 2-D platforming game! A monkey postman, who runs around collecting mail from the idyllic village he lives in! This character will eventually find his way into 3D, but for now, it's simply a concept.

The final design, along with color variations and expressions.

The very different variations on the same character. Each based off a different monkey, to convey a different personality. The goal here was for each character to stand on their own.

The reference gathered for each monkey. Lots of different types, each with their own nice shapes to play with.

Some material call-outs, to explain what each material should be, once the character is moved into production.
