Garden Gnome: Character development

Things were starting to get a little desperate when I began developing the character models for the garden gnome and Batgnome characters. Under a lot of pressure to get going on the final animatic, I managed to model, texture and rig the garden gnome character in 2 days and then proceeded to alter his outfit to create Batgnome as well. This worked out well as I got two characters completely modeled, textured and rigged for the price of one, allowing me more time to get going with the animatic. I'm very happy with how these two characters turned out as they look very similar to the concept art I did earlier in the semester and I got quite a bit of positive feedback from my peers on their appearance. The only thing I'm a little disappointed about is the rigs attached to them. They do the job well enough for an animatic, but my rigging skills still have a lot to be desired if I want to animate these guys properly next semester.

below are some screenshots of the Garden Gnome and Batgnome characters:
