I had some fun sketching out a few different poses and angles of the Woodcutter. He is fun to draw and i have a more definite image in my mind of how i want him to look than the Crane (for now). He seems kind of awkward and goofy, which I love. He will be hopefully easy to animate with varied expressions.My favourite of the above poses is the top centre one, where he looks almost bashful. The next stage for me will be to decide on definite proportions for him and create a proper model sheet; then choose a body shape and size and do the same with that. Then I get to colour him, and hopefully he's done!
