Creative Character Design for Games and Animation by Jenny Harder

This book takes you through the practice of designing characters for games and animation. It covers aspects such as creative thinking, working with references through to the development phase and final render. It covers a range of styles such as cartoon, stylized and semi-realistic, and explains how to differentiate and use them effectively.

"This is the kind of book I wish I'd had when I first dipped my feet in the art waters, filled to the brim with time-honed perspective and know-how for a young artist to aspire to"

Even Mehl Amundsen, professional artist

"Jenny Harder is part of a new generation of artists bringing a fresh and in depth look at character design. If you are a beginner artist or a veteran in the business, this book offers great lessons in the fundamentals of good design."

Christian Alzmann, Concept Design Supervisor at Lucasfilm

"Every artist entering a professional career path has a lot to learn, and obviously, it takes years to connect all the dots between craft, human nature and visual perception. Jenny Harder creates a phenomenal compendium for any artist or supervisor wanting to become a more aware, efficient, and happy creator."
