FAQ About Character Design
What's the best way exaggerate characters more effectively?
Gathering reference is very important. Not only visual references, but also references from books and movies are very important. That includes going outside and watching the trees.
Clarity of exaggeration comes from the artist's perspective of story. So it can be a pretty cool way for the artist to go out and experience some of the things the character might experience. Even for simple things the character does, such as crossing a bridge, having a drink at a bar, experience is essential.
