Character Design

"Don’t talk to strangers" is a horror short story in which I served as the character designer. I dedicated myself to creating a character image that is both innocent and capable of inducing fear.

My inspiration comes from the character designs of Laika Studios. In his appearance, I have designed large eye sockets with small pupils, and added some bruises around the eye sockets, as well as deepened the shadows around the corners of the eyes, creating a sense of eeriness in his gaze. This paired with the childlike nature of the young boy creates an unsettling visage.
