Moods

Because of the game concept and layout for my spreads, this allows me to potentially include a "mood" bubble of the protagonist as part of a game-like user interface, and I thought it might be fun to have him portray an appropriate mood for each location -- the mood one might feel while engaging in each activity.

Lineart.

Colored version.

Very roughly done heh.. I used the unique color palette for each location as well so that they would fit the composition/mood of the overall spread. Anyways it's just a fun feature and having it included is a symbol that gamers would be very familiar with as a lot of games include a portrait of your character in the user interface along with other relevant information like experience, level and so on.
