Original Turnaround of Gritty
Here’s the character turnaround illustration I originally created for the Flyers that was sent to the costume company, Character Translations Inc to make Gritty into a the big ball of orange fur we all love or hate! I originally submitted 25 different 20-minute rough sketches of what the mascot could be, and the Art Directors picked something very similar to what Gritty looks like today. We went through many different variations (such as adding wings, a tail, different colors, teeth, etc) before arriving at this turnaround. **I will probably do a live dawing session Friday afternoon around 2pm EST on my YouTube channel and social media if you want to join, I’d be happy to answer any questions about the process.#philadelphiaflyers @grittynhl #nhl #hockey#mascot #characterdesign #characterdesigner #conceptartist #mascotdesign #characterart
