Animation:

Character design of Postwoman Carol

The Animation project.

The task is to create an animation using the prompt: Conflict. Inspired by the people who made Tom and Jerry the animation is going to be about a Post man and a Dog as they like a cat and a mouse are presumed as enemies. I will be working in collaboration with Maria, a fellow college student who will be charged with animating the dog, and there is a link to her blog here:

Concepts and concept art

Poster of Carol and a dog

Carol Inkrose is the hard working rookie postwoman, she is 22 years old and she has Cynophobia (a fear of dogs). Carol has bright red curly hair that is in direct contrast with her cold blue uniform.

Line art and colour schemes

Colour sheet

For the line art I test too options, a normal black line art and a dark brown line art and I feel that the black works best as it stands out more and make the character look more cartoony. 

The colour scheme for Carol was pretty simple as I wanted to give her bright red hair but changed it too a slighter pink version, I wanted to give a very warm coloured hair as most Postman uniforms are a cold blue and the warm and the cold colours contrast very well. Also I drew a casual look for her where she wears very casual clothes and earthy colour, a warm green for the t-shirt and a light stone grey for the trousers. Finally her eyes are a light blue and her pupils are a even lighter blue instead of a black pupil as it looks less harsh.

This scene is animated by me and is the second part of the animation where Carol is climbing over the fence.
