Headless Horseman part 2
This is the final design for my Headless Horseman character; he is the final character for the Halloweenies compilation. Obviously, as with the rest of the cast, he is intentionally quite typical compared to other designs. However, I did want to change up his attitude and make him more emotional than others, hence his Jack O' Lantern having an expressive face; it serves to show two emotions - the saddened expression represents the Horseman's sadness for losing his horse, and the fire represents his anger for losing his head...yes, the Horseman lost his horse. I figured it would serve as an interesting story bit later on down the road when I do individual digital renders and then the group shot. One thing I am unclear of in my own design is how his shoes look similar to modern day sneakers; I really don't care, either-they come off as interesting to see - a long-passed figure wearing sneakers...it's funny. Either way I am happy with how it turned out, and I can honestly say that now, for me, the hard part is to come-digitizing them all and then composing them into one shot. This was done on 5.5X8.5 sketch paper in graphite. Let me know what you all think. Vaya con Dios.
