Earthbound Characters Concept Art Redesign

This exercise consists of renewing the style of the characters of a retro video game. In this case I have chosen Earthbound, a game that hasn't had a new title in a long time.

The goal of the style is to create characters that look like clay dolls. That is why they are composed of simple shapes. The protagonists are made up of vivid colors and rounded shapes to correctly communicate that they are lovable and the good guys. While the antagonists have more pointed shapes and duller colors.

Although I have done color tests, I have decided to keep the original clothing colors to maintain the nostalgia they convey.
