Character 2 development thumbnails

Here are my development thumbnails for design character 2. As always i kept the first design pretty similar to the original and then went in other directions for the other 4 concepts. 

I quite like the unusual stature of character 1, he's that kind of strange misfit junkyard guy. All of his weapons will have either been made from scraps, salvaged or rudimentary weaponry. I would like to change up the shapes in the characters i use, introducing some slightly less average looking people would be good but i don't want them to just look completely out of place amongst the other characters.

Character 2 is a little more traditional in size, he is the kind of wastelander, scavenger warrior type character,  all of these character branch from the junkyard aesthetic of the original concept. I think this character is one of the more visually interesting out of the 5, i think he could be developed well but at the moment i think he may look a little too cliche. He is definitely a contender for my pick out of these but i may just take some elements to create a new final concept or incorporate other design elements into this one.

Character 3 is my least favourite out of the 5, it was the last one i made and as always it's my least favourite and frankly the one that looks the worst. This design really has nothing going for itself and i won't be using it. I was attempting to ad another character with a different body type  but he just looks deformed.

Character 4 is a slightly more interesting one, though a bit confused at the moment i think. He has the whole scrapyard warrior thing going on but also this mechanic kind of look with the pockets, baggy pants and wrench. I quite like the shapes that the character has but wouldn't take his forward as he is.

Character 5 is an odd one, i really like the large coat and the kind of gruff, raw, semi futuristic look he as going on but i really don't like the helmet, it looks way too Daft Punk. I do like the crude weapon though, just a chunk of scrap on a chain.  This character would need work but i do like it.
