Antonio Beladine - The second of my first two characters from my Character Design Course. This guy is a cop mutated with a Brazilian spider monkey. He was designed in Maya to be the hero in a third person game set in Brazil. This character is near and dear to me because he was created in my head long before he was a model. Inspired by my favorite fandom the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Beladine is destine to be a character in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Series. I have big plans for him in future projects.

Here is Beladine before paint or texture.

Wire versions to show his topology.

Some concept art sketched in Photoshop and Illustrator.

Antonio Beladine was modeled in 2020 but these are the first ideas I had of him in 2017. Some concepts of a Brazilian Police officer mutated into a spider money after a brutal confrontation with the main antagonist. Included are reference images of the monkey, a Psycho from the game Borderlands (because I was inspired by the style and frame of the character) and a police officer, again for design inspiration.

More concepts from 2017.

I included this quick animation of Beladine simply because it was a piece of his development. I wanted to experiment with his personality.
