My character's name is Gregg. He is a balloon salesman who has bizarrely long arms. He's very friendly and happy and loves to meet new people every day as he sells balloons on the street. Although he loves the city, one day Gregg would like to explore the rest of the world via hot air balloon.
Initial concepts for Gregg.
Multiple views and color-scheme.
Key positions.
Arms added to the key positions. Two "in-betweens" would later be added between each key position for more fluid motion.
Animating in Photoshop.
