Portfolio Class- Character Development!
MORDRED PROMPT-

ok, so heres the last character. hes your final exam, and will pull from the other 3 youve done so far. Mordred is Arthur's son born from incest with Morgane. He is a villain, and a clearly evil character. In some versions, mordred is a young man or boy, in others his growth is enhanced through magic and he is a man grown when he faces arthur. Whichever of these options you choose I leave up to you. whats important is that he has the following.

-A pose or stance that shows his power, ability to impose fear, or scheming nature (not just standing there)
-Thematic ties to Arthur in his design, but clearly warped or twisted into something darker
-a connection to his mother, Morgane, and her powers as a magician and conjurer (in most versions, she aids him via supernatural powers.

for anyone unfamiliar with the story, Mordred and Arthur kill one another in Arthurs final battle, effectively erasing both sides of the war and leaving britain in the same sort of leaderless stalemate it was in before the rise of camelot. this is because the two are supposed to be seen as metaphoric equals that cancel one another out- so keep that in mind when sketching.


Good luck! and remember! lots of sketches and drawings before landing on one final look!
