Popular roughs


This summer i'm attempting to animated (or partially animate?) the song "Popular" from the musical "Wicked" :) I was inspired by the storyboards by Heidi Jo Gilbert to attempt to do something that i actually wanted to see! i was also trying to emulate the style of Secret of Kells and I'm a Monster with these designs (theyre very rough, they were just done so i kind of had an idea of the characters to start my boards!). hopefully by the end of the summer, i'll have a leica reel with some pencil test animation cut into it and a bunch of layout and design work! I have a ton of work ahead of me, but i'm excited :)
i would love some critiques on these designs and how you think they might work (or not work) when animated!

also heres the song for any one thats curious :)

I like these models sheets a lot, the forms are very clear and designed well. One thing about Galinda, I prefer the attitudes on the right, rather than her face in the main model turns, which seems less lifelike. Maybe it's the eyes? Just my humble opinion.

Exciting! Beautiful line work, as always. Their bodies very much fit their personalities, and in a very different way than what I've seen in other Wicked fan art :)
