Character Design research Andrea Fermerstrand

I discovered Andrea Fermerstrand a.k.a. Noukah on Behance. What fought my eye was her sketches. I like the way they were presented which I thought looked really professional. Her character designs are insane! She manages to exaggerate the most uncommon features of animal or people and it just works so nicely.
This sketch in particular is my favorite because a new passion of mine is sketching foxes, wolves or dogs. Probably it was because it all started with responsive when I was making a character design for Chilli animation. It was so easy and fun to sketch it I thought I would like to develop it further.

 This sketch is funny and she managed to catch character in such a simple sketch which I find fascinating.

This illustration is amazing because the character seemed to breaking stereotype- instead of being a clever fox, the fox is presnted so funny and whimsical, where as the tiger is usually a serious character, masculine and even scary sometimes but she made it friendly and cute. I love it when the artist break the stereotypes especially when it comes to character design.
