DOSE CHARACTER DESIGN.

Character design2025
different fruit.
different personality.
( 01 · OVERVIEW )

I had the opportunity to design and write 10 original characters for Dose, with each character representing a different fruit and having its own personality, traits, and quirks.

( 02 · THE GOAL )

The goal was to create something fun and relatable that a younger audience could connect with and appreciate, while giving Dose a more playful and human side.

( 03 · TOUGH DEADLINE )

The project took around 16 hours from start to finish, and while that was a pretty rough deadline, it gave me the opportunity to create a full set of characters that feel unique, expressive, and true to the personality of Dose.

( 04 · WRITING )

I started by developing a distinct personality for each character

FE
( 05 · SKETCHING )

Then moved into sketching and exploring different concepts until I found the right direction for each one. From there, I refined the characters and vectorized them in Illustrator, bringing the entire cast to life by hand without the use of AI.
