Chixter Figure Study
This unusual, mouthless, birdlike creature was the result of my trying to come up with some sort of common creature that could be found in a video game. Much like the Mario video game series has pals such as Toads and Goombas, or the Final Fantasy series has Moogles and Chocobos, I figured that a future video game I created could use some sort of simply-constructed critter. Thus, Chixter was born. Below is a figure study showing how to draw Chixter and a handful of variations on it. As you can see from the positioning of Chixter's eyes, this creature was made for 2D games. Despite 3D video games being more common nowadays, I like the idea of going back to a retro, cartoony look.
