Astronaut Character Concept Art

Several years ago I was tasked to create an intro animation for Microsoft Windays ceremony. The entire project had to take a more simplified approach in the end than I initially wanted, however the concept art from the very first phase of that project remains the exact version of what I wanted to do. This is one of the character concept sketches done during that first phase, with just a tiny bit of influence from the wonderful illustrations of Al Hirschfeld.
