After getting feedback from multiple friends and professors on previous logo sketches. Most people seemed most attracted to the scale with eyes logo! This helped me narrow down what I should making the icon for social media sites. The next step is going to be turning one of the above icons into a finalized vector drawing in Adobe Illustrator.
New sketches I did of the two characters who would be the Overseers of the Court of Candor. Everyone at the Court works under these two, they act both as priests and judges, and allegedly communicate directly to some of the Guardians within the pantheon of Conflux.
I wanted to expand outside just the Court of Candor and fleshed out the country of Noru Downsy where the Court exists. Considering the climate, where towns would most likely be situated, and what travel routes might exist. It was difficult coming up with names for these locations but I do like what I have here!

Lastly, a completed turn table of the two main characters Ceri Pye and Avrin Belmont. Getting a feel for what their personalities are with shape language and color coding, it took me a really long time to figure out what colors looked best next to each other while ensuring that they matched the personalities that these two have. I studied a variety of bird images (blue birds, canaries, and chickadees) or Ceri, as I wanted to portray her as a sweet character still trying to learn how to spread her wings as an Investigator for the Court of Candor. While Avrin is her strict and cold demeanor mentor who does their job excellently but doesn’t like to talk about their past. I shared this on my personal twitter account in hopes of getting the followers I have interested in what I am working on!
