COLLABORATION - CICI CHARACTER DESIGN 1
I started the character design for our collaboration project focusing on the Blind character, Cici. We wanted to theme her around the film Grease, therefore dressed her similar to a pink lady. Pink Lady 3 is the design we have agreed on, just need to finalise the colours, props and details.

Hi - Just a quick note (and this is purely an observation, not a criticism, and not true of anyone who happens to be blind). Comedy is all about character and therefore subtle little touches and nods towards a characters 'off-screen life' make a really big difference. Obviously, it depends upon how silly/crazy you want your characters to be, but if you decide that your character is single (lives on her own) and is blind, is there another layer of comedy in what she's wearing. For example, how would she know what she has put on? As I said, that is not necessarily true of anyone in the real world who happens to be blind, but in a comedy setting it might be. See Graham's image...

Also, your comment button is 'black on black'. I can't see it? I had to randomly click around to find it.
