I would like my character and a lot of the assets to not have any curves on them. The style sort of reminds me of folk art, wood carved figurines like the one above and below. Ideally, I would really like to make my character like the torso bust 2 down with the planar model style.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/IMGD3500_A14\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Wood1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-187\" src=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/IMGD3500_A14\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Wood1.jpg\" alt=\"Wood1\" width=\"180\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/IMGD3500_A14\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Wood1.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/IMGD3500_A14\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Wood1-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/IMGD3500_A14\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/planarFront.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-185\" src=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/IMGD3500_A14\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/planarFront.jpg\" alt=\"planarFront\" width=\"175\" height=\"286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/IMGD3500_A14\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/planarFront.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/IMGD3500_A14\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/planarFront-183x300.jpg 183w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 175px) 100vw, 175px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I also really like the styles of Monkey Island.
