Nami & Gragas from League of Legends

[abcnocturn]

Hey guys,
I'm currently learning how to make 3/4 perspective characters. I'm trying to build some characters that lookalike Secret of Mana characters or others of the 16bit SNEs era.



I changed Gragas a bit ( less head hair ).
I'm not really after how accurate those characters are ( that's why I don't put references in here ), but how the art is in general and if it is readable

Hope for some tipps!
Cheers,
Daniel

The mermaid(?) looks good, but the bearded person seems to be in sideview rather than 3/4 view. We should see more of the top of their head, and their trousers should probably have more of a curve around the body.

I also made his beard stretch more around his head to serve as another perspective marker, removed the highlights from the cheeks because I don't think they read well, and made the highlights a little darker because their brightness was overpowering the other skin colours, making the skin shadows not read well.

I would maybe try to make gragas a bit chubbier since he is really really chubby in the game xd
You could also try to give him a barrel to make it even more obvious that he is in fact gragas

I really like what you did with the head !
That and the belly are giving now way more perspective !

That was what I needed. I tried to redo the things you mentioned by my own to learn

Tried to give him a littlebit more belly but thought his head is normally not really chubby. Maybe I should do something with the arms ?
Added the barrel
