Portfolio Season: redesigning old characters

 If you follow my work here, you'll find my posts last year when I first designed these characters for 2nd year projects. I've just finished them up a bit for the upcoming portfolios due this month. Studying a sort of calligraphic line treatment + flat colour/shapes.

Not too sure if I like coloured line or black lines for the boy. Black didn't look good, maybe it's because his design isn't pushed far enough...
