Silver's Character Design Class - Week 1 Fat Joe


Hey guys,
I decided to take Stephen Silver's course in character design. I just started it this week and I am already loving it! The lecture was just amazing. Our assignment for this week is to draw a design of Fat Joe described in the assignment this way: "SCENE—The bar of a low dive on the London water front—a squalid, dingy room dimly lighted by kerosene lamps placed in brackets on the walls At the far end of the bar stands Fat Joe, the proprietor, a gross bulk of a man with an enormous stomach. His face is red and bloated, his little piggish eyes being almost concealed by rolls of fat. The thick fingers of his big hands are loaded with cheap rings and a gold watch chain of cable-like proportions stretches across his checked waistcoat." I have drawn some black poses and one design so far.

  • Hey there Maciek, great stuff man. I also did the Stephen Silver Course last year when I was in class 4 at Animation Mentor and this course was very helpful in creating stronger poses and get a better understanding of shapes. Hope to meet you in London next week.
