Pigeon

PROJECT SCOPE8 WEEKS
PROJECT TYPEPERSONAL

I was inspired by pigeons in the city. They walk between our legs but nobody even notices them. They’re a mysterious presence. Hated by some and ignored by others.

This character is really tiny (and a bit cute perhaps). He’s about the size of a pigeon and wears a backpack underneath his hoodie which gives the body a strange animal-like shape. He wears this hoodie because he doesn’t want to be approached and likes to move unnoticed. There are black stripes on this hoodie to make him look like a pigeon. His gaze is always aimed at the sky because of his biggest enemy: the foot. He lost his own left foot during his time as a homeless person, this still hurts and makes him stumble. The weight of his backpack makes this even worse but all of his things are in there.
