He's a flamer

I attended a summer concept art workshop last week with instructor Rolf Mohr.  We learned a great process of getting our character ideas quickly on paper.  First we started with thumbnails to get a general look and feel of our character.  Then, we took that a little further with some rough sketches.  Basically trying to get the characters forms to read correctly.  Rolf really emphasized keeping our sketches loose a quick; it was more about the design of the character and less of a piece of artwork.  Finally we did a clean line drawing over our sketch to then start painting.
