Character Design Challenge : Wayfarer

Hey Draw A Day artists and members. We’re back with another Character Design Challenge. This time, a mysterious traveler who roams the world with a trusted companion. Do they walk with purpose, chasing a goal? Or do they simply let the wind decide their path?

Their outfit should feel practical yet distinct, layered for the road ahead, hinting at different cultures or places they’ve passed through. Their pet isn’t just a tag along it could be a guide, a protector, or something more.

Who are they? What drives them forward? Let’s bring this wandering soul to life

Here’s how to participate:
Main Prompts (Participants must use all three):

Tree Hair: Design a character with hair styled like a tree or plant.
Pet Leash: Create a character walking a pet on a leash or lead.
Colorful Patches: Add circular or patterned patches to the outfit.

Optional Prompts (For Fun):

Bold Scarf: Include a vibrant scarf or cape for flair.
Nature Tones: Use colors like green, red, or blue inspired by nature.
