I found another blog which provides tips and hints on good character design from Aaron Diaz. Character design is something that can permeate a wide majority of entertainment media and a good character can act as a mascot or personification of particular ideas. Personally I need to read this because not all my ideas of character come complete, I'll have an idea for clothing or just a face but through this article I have learnt the importance of using cohesion in visual design and its use to build up on raw ideas.
The whole blog post is seen here:
