Main Character Design sketches (College Work)

For the main character (Cher) I decided from the start, as he is immune to the cold, he contently wears light and cut back clothes. (Like you would wear for summer.) This took a lot of time trying to get it right as I needed to fix his clothing with the surroundings and era.
At first, I wanted to show how he was immune to the cold, which resulted in him being a little chubby and having fat resources slung around his back to keep him in temperature. This concept unfortunately failed, it wasn't connecting with the other characters, he stood out quite a bit. So, I decided to create a few Silhouette's to get a simple idea of what he should/could look like.

The one in red is the one I selected to draw fully, and have as the main character. From here, he is lightly clothes but has fur around his lower belly and neck, but long hair to keep the temperature of his head warm.

Final Concept of Cher;

As I had finished Cher's concept, and happy with what he wore, I decided to start other main characters that you'll see in game. These characters aren't immune to the cold, but they live in a tribe, surviving the harsh ever lasting winter. A girl, Lulu, and a elder named Yami.
