Digital roughing

I've not been finding my sketchbook a successful place to develop ideas recently because it takes me a long time to figure out hand drawn sketches in a way that I'm happy with, and with the little amount of time we've had going up to all these deadlines, I chose to stick to digital roughs moving into finishing up my final outcomes.

I'm experimenting with different ways to get across the basic shapes and colours of each character, I don't think either of these are near a finished point because their proportions don't lend well to a head on top (which is kind of vital to character design).

However I'm getting a lot more comfortable with how the colours are turning out, I think contrast is the key to make these illustrations pop in a memorable way.
