The characters were already in existance from a story book. My mission was recreate Zeus and Athena from scratch in the various poses that the game needed and understand their size relation to one another. So naturally, I began by rough sketches, studying the shapes and make up of each character. And once the sketches are nailed down, then proceed to full color renderings complete with animation parts.

Various angles of the coin were created to spin for animation.
