concepts in progress

[charlottefranks]

was just wanting to hear what you guys though of my concepts for little red riding hood. these concepts are a different take on the story as its set in the future do im not too keen on taking the literal angle like making the wolf charterer look or be like a wolf. but this is just the looks as the movement and weaponry will help explain the characters more like the wolf will be bale to run on all fours etc

[J.R.Hollis]

I think that the designs would be easier to decipher if you put all of the tropes of the story involved with the story of Little Red Riding hood.

Introduce a Macguffin.
Make sure that all of the characters are represented, red (Who is obvious), the wolf (The Robot?), grandma (Some sort of fortress? Station? Spaceship? Actual old lady?), and hunter (Dude with the hawk?). They don't have to look like them, but if you want some joe off the street to understand what their looking at you might have to introduce some known ideals.

I would say get started on some sort of illustration putting it all together, show some confrontation so we can establish who the characters are. In this way folks can help you a lot more with fundamentals and all that good stuff.

I'd suggest making Red not look like she could kick the crap out of the wolf. Obviously you're going for subtle in the depictions, but I think it's a good idea they stick to visual archetypes (predator and prey).
