I really like these character illustrations by Scott Macdonald. I like the balance of grittiness and fluidity in the illustrations. I think they would work well with our concept.

this is the link I found these illustration from, I not sure how to read the name of the artist because it cant read the language that it is in.

This is just a variety of illustration styles I found and thought that we could try and incorporate into our characters.
