The brief
The challenge
Preserve one recognizable personality while changing age, body language, situation and supporting props.
The response
The approach
Three life stages were designed as connected scenes, then assembled into a presentation sheet that makes the evolution easy to compare.
Why it matters
Value in practice
Age and variation sheets are useful for animation, series development, games and story pitches where continuity must survive design changes.
