In Class Assignment: Character Costumes

During the class in which we talked about characters and designing outfits/costumes, we split off into groups to reimagine designs for characters of a well known story. Our group decided to do the story of Persephone and Hades but located around the Iguazu falls in South America and in the style of an exploration video game, so having a large focus on the environment and the aesthetics of the environment.

The character I designed was Hades. The idea behind his design is that the Iguazu Falls, the falls themselves also called the Devil's Throat, is the edge of the living world and that the falls and the water below are the entrance to the underworld. So Hades design takes a lot after the falls themselves. He is rocky and craggy with water running through him, and his outfit also appears as a waterfall.
