I wanted to recreate one of my stuffed animals. It is so cute. I wish I could have given him a friend in my design, but I ran out of time. Through this project, I familiarized myself more with how to use curveVertex functions to create shapes such as the arms and the legs. Although they are small parts of the character I created, it took a while to get the curves and coordinates right. I can see this design being on phone cases, pencil pouches, stickers, digital backgrounds, etc. Below is a sketch of what I based my wallpaper’s character off of.
