Raed is a self-taught artist who works as a freelance character designer at Desert Monkeys. Their big inspirations are animations, anime, and artists such as James Woods, Shiyoon Kim and Ami Thompson. 1 BIRD WARRIOR
“In this piece I focused on how the character feels. He is a tribal warrior and this is his war dance to try and get luck on his side.”
2 MAGICIAN RAT
“Here I wanted the character design to show his emotional backstory. My goal was to draw smooth, clear lines which tell as much with as few details.”
3 RODEO CHAMPION
“Characters with clear designs always pop. Here I am exploring the structure, because if that works then you have a good character design.”
4 JINX
“Fan art of the famous character Jinx. I went all out on this one and didn’t focus on details as much as I usually do. I just kept it loose and had fun.”
