This project involves creating five unique characters, HANA, Lime, Negel, Jim, and Brouno, each representing a different culture or ethnic group on the planet D. The characters will be designed to symbolize various cultures and integrate them into their personality, physical appearance, and cultural traditions. The story will follow their journey to spread love and hope, uniting people of all cultures and backgrounds. Through this project, the goal is to create a diverse and inclusive cast of characters that can inspire and educate people about different cultures

In today's globalized world, it is more important than ever to promote understanding and appreciation for different cultures and ethnic groups. However, diversity and inclusion are still significant challenges in many areas of society, including media and entertainment.
This character design project aims to address this issue by creating a cast of characters that represent different cultures and ethnicities, in order to promote cross-cultural understanding and appreciation. By integrating various cultural traditions and personalities into the character designs, the project hopes to create a diverse and inclusive cast that appeals to people of all backgrounds.
Furthermore, by presenting these characters in a positive light, and showcasing their unique and valuable contributions to society, the project aims to challenge negative stereotypes and prejudices, and to promote a more accepting and harmonious society.
Overall, this project is an opportunity to use the creative process of character design to promote positive social change, and to contribute to a more diverse and inclusive world.
Welcome to the Character Profiles section of my portfolio, where I present an exciting project that revolves around celebrating diversity, culture, and unity. In this project, I have created five unique characters, HANA, Lime, Negel, Jim, and Brouno, who represent different cultures and ethnic groups on the planet D. Each character is meticulously designed to embody their respective cultural traditions, physical appearances, and personalities. Together, they embark on a captivating journey that aims to spread love, hope, and understanding among people of all backgrounds. Through this project, I aspire to inspire and educate others about the richness and beauty of diverse cultures. Join me on this adventure as we explore the vibrant world of these extraordinary characters
Then, based on the character profiles, I incorporated actions that align with each character's traits, making the overall character design more dynamic and engaging
I used Rhino modeling and C4D rendering to convert 2D graphics into3D models
First of all, I used the Rhino modeling software to build the main model of five characters in combination with three views, and then changed the actions of the characters to make them look more vivid
In the later stage, I added materials and effects through C4D to make different colors themes for each character, with bright colors as main force.
The model will be 3D printed to determine the size and get a white model without color
First cover the rest of the region with tape to expose only the parts that need coloring, and then use a spray gun and oil paint for coloring
I designed a ladder-like display box to better display the built solid model, with the theme of magic forest, making five characters really stand on their own planet.The following is a simple display box draft I designed
After drawing in the computer, KT board is used for printing, and then it’s cut for the convenience of piecing together
Each KT board is pasted and combined, and then the finished model is placed in the corresponding position, and finally transparent acrylic plate is used as the outer shell
