Character Design - FunDza Literacy Trust

The final character design.
Each character represents one of the 11 soccer players on a team.
The focus of the characters where on diversity of personality.  The character with the flaming red hair is the goalkeeper.
Colour is added to the design.
The 11 characters as black & white versions.
I was commissioned by FunDza Literacy Trust to design & draw eleven soccer player characters to be used on a poster with the layout of a soccer field.  I completed this work in 2005.  It was the first commercial illustration work I did. I worked under the art direction of Christo Swanepoel of Fava Studio.
