Fortnite - Peabody

Peabody was such a fun character to develop. The initial sketch, created by one of our outsourcing artists, featured a character with a pea-pod head and three faces. I loved the idea and received the green light from my lead to explore it further.

We eventually had to change the pea-pod head because of gameplay constraints, but we preserved the character’s essence and continued refining the design. The team liked him so much that Peabody became one of the Battle Pass characters for Chapter 5, Season 3.

I also led the development of all his alternative styles and accessories.

Shout-out to the super-talented team at Epic Games and the outsourcing artists who helped bring this character to life.
