Some of my Bertie development and design from Arlo the Alligator Boy, voiced by the brilliant @marylambertsing! She's probably my favorite character I've ever designed!
One of my favorite characters to work on during my time on #iheartarlo was the Bog Lady. I loved her and her song! I based her on the Honey Island Swamp Monster, a local Lousiana cryptid, and the Kappa, a Japanese yokai sometimes known for drowning people and animals.
Some of my favorite development time on Arlo the Alligator Boy was spent creating style guides. It really helped the animators, and also allowed me to check my own work to make sure the characters were constructed in a way that makes sense! Waiter by @ChuChuBoogie
Arlo was the most comprehensive in terms of construction. He's the main character and we obviously wanted to build him in a way that was easy for the animators to move him. He's built from very simple shapes!
Important words to live by. ❤️⚔️
My boyfriend was potting houseplants outside on our patio today and that makes me stupid happy.
Some cute barista and cafe customer character development for a commission I'm working on!

Gonna start posting my #arlothealligatorboy character development work! Starting with Edmee because she was the toughest to nail down. I absolutely adored her design in the end, and working on such a complex, but sweet character was just a joy. Annie Potts was just brilliant.
Some more #arlothealligatorboy character dev! Here's Ansel, Arlo's dad (voiced by @VRodriguezIII). I wanted him to have a very "Uncle Walt" kind of feel to him- someone Arlo felt he could trust immediately, which made the reality after "Better Life" hit that much harder.
