Original Sketches/ Concepts: 

 I based my character sketches on variations of mushrooms. I wanted the characters to fit into a platformer as enemies. I imagine that this character would be able to have attack damage on the main character, but have the ability to propel the main character into the air if jumped on: similar to Mario Bros. In the game, I would want the character to have to encounter different versions of the enemy in an Alice in Wonderland like area. 

 References/Inspo: I referenced most of the character design from Mushrooms in Alice in Wonderland for the first sketch and then wanted to explore different character shapes. I was also influenced by Super Mario Bros and how they design their characters. I wanted my sketches to have more of a Platformer feel
