Stika Tempo - Character Designs

Stika Tempo is a fast-paced fighting game where animals from all different nations across time at the top of their respective martial arts come together to battle to see who is truly the ultimate warrior. Here I focused on designing 2 characters from this concept: The Nutcase, a victorian bare-knuckle boxing squirrel, and the W.W.Eagle, a wrestling Bald Eagle from America in the 80's/90's. I wanted the characters to really embody the sport and the nation it's come from, as well as be easy to animate and very easily distinguishable.
