"Picture in mind real personalities that would cast well for this character, especially actors and actress that you think would have worked for this role, and try to put them down on paper, on your drawings. Find pictures of people or whatever that you think would inspire or you could use, to study, caricature and discover the graphic elements you need to synthesize the character. Not saying that you have to make your design looks exactly like the person you have in mind, but to discover some graphic elements that are unique to that person. Those element that you get from real people will somehow give your design a real and unique feel. Doodle and play with archetypes, shapes and any graphic elements that you discovered, and let that energy between your mind and your hands bounces back and forth.”

-Chen Yi Chang, on Character Design
