Character Generation - Qwoffy Development

The toy can come in many styles.
These are designed in keeping which different types of coffee drinks you can buy thus adding some humour to the product.

Character Generation - Qwoffy (coffee bean character)

A simple character was designed in inspiration of a coffee bean. The coffee bean's crease becomes the mouth of the character.

Character trait research

Characterising- Me

As character traits are being used myself was explored and placed in character form using my traits as a basis.

Back to the drawing board - Re- thinking

After a feedback session i decided that I'm going at this project the wrong way. I should be thinking of what i want to show in the characters I'm designing, do they have a specific quality i want to show? IE a character trait which make them the character they are. Am i trying to show a statement in they way some urban vinyl toys do?
