Early morning post: People sketches

A quick post before breakfast: started working on the people who inhabit the world of Project Shujaa.

A headdress that would be worn by a village woman.




This was based off of a sculpture I saw in one of the books. The concept of a person having small arms amused me, so I drew it. It amused Hector as well. He said he could imagine the guy running around screaming "MERT MERT MERT!"




These are based on Maasai clothing:




Finally, after a little thought, this sketch represents the style I would like the game to use for people. I think it would be fun to make the 3D models in a similar style.




It won't be long before I select a few of the best pieces, redraw them in a more refined manner, and color them. I can't wait :D
