add one specific detail to description

- adding one of the British Silver U shaped emblems will connect him with the British more.
- Background could use more work -to bring more attention to the character.

- See the Diversity Page for some user testing feedback.
- When we go to the Public Museum you can see some Native American Clothing and a Gordet that was similar to what Thayendanegea wore.
- The Tory Symbol could use a highlight so that it can pop out on any background.

King George III - Standard Character Card by Alex Sophabmisay
King George was a politically unexperienced leader, so here he looks cheeky and lounges in the throne.
King George III - Standard Character Card by Alex Sophabmisay
King George expected obedience and wanted respect, so here is stands with a coy smile looking expectant.

King George was very determined and hard headed in his goals. He sits on the British Throne, with his crown and scepter showcasing his royalty.
King George III - Standard Character Card by Alex Sophabmisay
The self-righteous, sly, King George III sits on the throne playing a game. The revolution is the kings game and he plays to win.

Comments on King George for Alex - 2/8/18 - by Susan
Comments on King George for Alex - 2/8/18 - by Susan
What adjectives do we want to use for King George? How can we get the player to want to play him or George? Remember to be neutral. Not making fun - I think you are there with most of these.
On 2 and 3 if you lower the camera angle he will be more powerful. I like 3 the best right now - let's ask Andrew.
Andrew - placing him leaning way forward

User Testing
the musees liked the chess board piece
They felt it made him look sinister and included the player
They agreed that since he was really pompous, he should be dressed in really out-there clothes, rather than a more simple style.
King George III
Flats have been laid down and some preliminary painting has begun.
The crown will added later once it has been confirmed through research.

Final Painting for King George

Susan Comment 3/22
Nice Start on the face - his eyes may have to be slightly larger to be on style- perhaps it is the pupils - something to try.
John Murray
John Murray
1 - John Murray - Standard Character - By Denny Bui

Side view of John Murray facing to the right and declaring freedom to all slaves who side with the crown.
5 - John Murray - Standard Character - By Denny Bui
A variation of the side view facing left. Similar to the previous variation but John is pushed back less. His hand holding the paper is bending inwards more.
The Cheering hands are re-scaled to be bigger.
3 - John Murray - Standard Character - By Denny Bui
Side view of John Murray facing to the left and declaring freedom to all slaves who side with the crown.

Added additional shading to the face and hat for additional contrast.
Pushed some light tones on the raised hands. And Added slight dirt marks on them to make them slightly dirtier.
From Susan 3/20/18
For John Murray these are very good, I recommend doing # 3 because it is the strongest view of a hero pose but with the people from 1 or 2 which tell the story. So try both the extra characters in 2 new versions.
You may have to bring him in a bit since it looks like the freedom paper gets cut on the left.
From Susan 3/22/18
#5 is Good. I feel like his eyes are misdirected in the story. You may need 2 more hand sets on the left or redirect his eye gaze towards one of the people with their hands up. Watch your crop edges - maybe the hand on the left gets cropped off. You are approved to start on this. It really tells the story well.

Susan Comment 3/20
Go with #1 He seems determined - there seems to be more storytelling of the trudging through treacherous midwest winter.
Susan Comment 3/22
Good - Are his eyes large enough to be on style?- perhaps enlarge slightly The landscape will be nice with the snow whipping through it. Emphasize snow and wind.

Susan Comment - 3/20/18
Go with #1 because it is more iconic. But watch the anatomy and foreshortening of the arm on the left. Add your research slides above your images.

Susan Comment - 3/20/18
I like #1 the best so far, what letters was she known for? What influence did they have? That info should go on the description if relevant to the revolution. Put your research slides on this page for easy access.
