usually i create the world first, and then the characters arise out of that world. it's a lot easier to design a character if you know the world they live in

Paul has a good point. You also need to figure out who they are. Their personality and how they interact with others.

I use drawings I made as a little kid for inspiration. Glad my mom saved them.

EDIT: Brain fart. Several times I misspelled "wield". Oh well, I only spent 3 minutes on it anywyas.

So you guys dig around random artist inspiration galleries like I do. I was hoping there was more of a hub people submit stuff they're working on, kinda like Dribbble or something.

If you stare into static long enough your brain starts seeing images.



Take what you saw as a starting point. It's a neat exercise.
But of course there is no real universal source for inspiration, you just have to find your own, and most of the time inspiration finds you. Looking at other art usually doesn't help either, it just nurtures copycats.

Strange I'm not really seeing-OH GOD! THE EYES, THE EYES!

THEY STARE INTO MY SOUL!

Animating something like this >> Outraged << would take hours, maybe even days of work.
