When I design characters I usually think of them in color. I knew I wanted Gretel to be super-blonde, so that when she's in the forest or in the witch's dank old house her head will silhouette nicely. Also, a lot of, a LOT of gals in old fairytale illustrations have white blonde hair like that (maybe for the same reason?), so I lifted the idea for myself. Hansel still looks like a jerk but I'll get into him more soon.

you have an incredibly good taste! i love your style! looking forward to see more and more and more..
Awesome designs, the witch below is great too, really nicely done!
you are one of the up and coming character designers that trully captures a unique personality, instinctively in your designs. Your characters feel like they actually exist, breath, and have their own thoughts first, then I notice what great designs they are. Wonderful stuff!
Sounds like you have a secret admirer Brigette.. I'm working on a little something I'd like to show you- remind me next time I see you.
Thinking in Color is the BEST way to think!
I love these! It's true. Your characters have a lot of personality which seems like the hardest thing to achieve in character design.
these are great.
