Initial Ideas and Character design Development about "Fear" emotion

 Today I did some research on idea generation for fear. I wanted to make a character who is old and scared of the world around him. I was struggling to find the character to take as an inspiration so that I can make a good outcome from it. After a while, a movie called "Lord of the rings" hit my brain because I remembered a character called "Gandalf" who is a one of the most powerful wizards. The role was played by Ian Mckellen. To know more about Gandalf, you can go through the image links below.

I opened Photoshop and made a new canvas of 2000x3000 frame size in pixel in a portrait layout. I designed my character with a normal pose as below.

After the pose, I created the outlines of the character. I started with the face and ended on the feet. The character looked good to me therefore I finalized it with the new layer merging everything together.

I also had colored it to give a quick concept. However, my final outcome will be on the main blogs of character backstories.

My next blog will be on the emotion called Confused.
