Originally, I designed my character to have shorter arms and rounder features but the realistic version was a massive improvement. I started to realise that although I had put more work into the first version and it had more detailing it wasn’t necessarily more interesting. I decided to make it more vibrant and futuristic by incorporating simple thick lines and geometric shapes. I focused on clothing to create something that looked cool and unique with highlights to reveal the shine. I think it also looks more comic like because of the bright colours.
The phone stuck to the face is a metaphor for literally being glued to your phone/ it having a hold on you/not being able to get away from it.
