Mindmap: I created a mindmap to jot down the associations I make to the prompts given. Traits I choose to incorporate in character:
Self: happy hoodie, glasses hair, summer hibernation
Explore: avid shopper ( exploring different sites and sales) (crocodiles: keen eye)
Skill: improve writing
I took inspiration from a crocodile, as we share common hate towards the blazing summer heat. Crocodiles are also low maintenance and have an acidic stomach, a trait we share.
After finalizing the form (F) I simplified it and tried to explore features such as clothing, hair, etc.
I choose elements from my physical looks, like the hoodie and the glasses, to make the character more Me (prompt self); the croc crocs added to enhance the cozy feeling.
