Create Your HERO!

The Cricket

Unexpected Hero

Solution

This ex-cyrcus artist who has turn into an anonymous hero , is constantly moving around, surprising town with his extravagance.

Inspired by DaVinci´s Ideas and the Jansen wheel he has come with many invention. The Grasshopper, maybe his favorite could be compared with a flying bike , a human powered machine able to convert random moves into coordinated ones = motion.

Though he looks more clumsy than elegant when he flys, can get from A to B in no time ,(not mayor injuries has been reported).

Many make fun of him for his odd looks, specially for his hat , in defence he claims to get agreater sense of stability .

Usually loved by people spscially childrens, he also have rivals:

People who hate clowns. Although is not any more in the cyrcus his costumes doesn´t help him at all.

To avoid cramps he is constantly warming up and streching, in any moment he must deliver a meal!

I like your sketches and your story - my only fear is that your insect-like character might be a bit intimidating for the faint-hearted...

Agree with Janne. Actually i think it is a really great character, but i´m not sure it´s totally appropriate for delivering food. Perhaps you can make him a little more friendly?

Agree here too - he looks like a stick bug - not so suitable for food delievering, yes he should be more friendly and have some more muscles?

I see where you guys are coming from but I think that this would be interesting to see - he does not look like your average hero but that makes his design more eye catching when delivering food to the cities. I like the illustrations as well. I think that this hero could get the job done.

Hei every one! Yes is true the guy has a weird look, but also good heart, incapable of hurting anyone, in the exercise of sorvive in the best way he can. I guess it was the better I could come with after see the great ideas around!

u know what? take out the goatse for the faint hearted people, and depict him with sorta kind expression, I think it would do it... seriously, I don´t know why people is so scared, maybe the cricket is showing something about themselves they´re afraid to know. ;)
