Character design for the old mender

I have got my final design for the old mender. He is pretty much based on the character Albert Arkwright from the classic 1970's series 'Open All Hours'. He has such a great personality and so many great features.

I just have to make up a model sheet for him and also decide whether I am going to make his clothes or sculpt them straight on to the body so it's all the same piece.




A very quick drawing to get the feel off the shape and detail in his face.

First draft for final
