Getting Into Character Concepts

This week, I talked with fellow artist teammates and suggested that we could possibly make some character/enemy concepts. The game takes place in the Aztec era. The main enemy are the Spanish conquistadors. I went for a more cartoony look for the character. I also tried to get the character clothing to match that of the armor set so commonly associated with conquistadors of the time.  I did learn that I should have made it on a smaller canvas.  I originally made this on a very large canvas then scaled it down. I noticed that the quality changed a bit, perhaps for the worse.
