After establishing the foundational character designs using Illustrator, we gave different variations to the tiger character. This was the process of developing the character design further, and we had the freedom to change the colors, shapes, or the design to the style that we preferred.

Grace

• Color variation

  Gave the tiger character some color variations, turning its orange skin color to colors like blue, grey, ivory, and light brown.

• Ear shape variation

  Tried to change the shape of the tiger’s ears, making it pointier.

• Mouth shape variation

  Gave mouth shape variation to the tiger, making the mouth shut and open.

  

  

• Pose variations: The pointing pose, and pose where the mascot is holding an item (such as the Korean flag)

Celine

• Color variation

  • Tried to create different color sets for the tiger, turning the skin color to various shades of orange and red, purple, etc. Understanding the potential impact color could have on the overall outlook and perception of the characters, I tried to experiment with different hues of orange.

• Body size variation

  • Made adjustments to different body parts of the tiger, including its nose, eyes, head, and body

  

  

  

• Pose variations: The thinking pose, and talking pose with matching facial expressions

  

• Props variation: The Korean-style fan, and the traditional Korean hat
