Team Wunderbar: Inspiration

For our "Post-Apocalyptic, Futuristic" Hansel & Gretel story, we found reference in films with very muted, desaturated color palettes. Our world is going to be very gray, with hints of color here and there when the protagonists are present.

Character Designs WIP

Hello,

Here are the latest character designs for the visual development of Team Dinerpocalypse.

Our visual style revolves around the Googie Style of the 50s.

So for our character line work, we took inspiration from other cartoons that took from this style as well.... like The Jetsons.
Our goal was to take the googie style of using straight and curved lines, and use it in a more realistic fashion for the characters of our story.

Starting with Hansel....

Then Grettel.....

Then... The waitress.

I love her being so sassy.

She was also inspired by my chemistry teacher in high school who shall not be named.

So there you have it. Team Dinerpocalype's Character development thus far. :-)
