The Character Boards
The Process
Originally I wanted a pentagon shaped character board, with a pentagram on the back.
Players could keep track of their stat changes by moving tacks up and down.
At first I went for a simple, cartoonish vibe
but switched to a more detailed, realistic rendering.
from there I adjusted and simplified the design
simplify.
simplify.
simplify.
but it still felt off…
so I started over,
and eventually landed on this.
and went back to the basics with greyscale portraits.
