Cuphead human redesigns: King Dice

Decided to reupload these as individual projects, instead of a collection

A practice in character design; I took characters from the video game Cuphead and tried translating them to humanized versions.

For King Dice, I had a lot of trouble settling on a design. In the end, I decided to go back to his roots - King Dice was heavily inspired by Cab Calloway, so I based the human design on Calloway as well.

Couldn't get King Dice's design right, so I tried to work off of one of his signature poses and get a general idea
