Well I can go ahead and try to model something, I'd just really hate to put time into something that'd just ultimately go to waste.
But, I suppose that's how the process goes, at times.
I'm not much of a sketcher, but I'll see what I can get as a mockup.
Small point of interest: Are the characters going to have the ability to equip weapons, and have their equipped items reflected in-game? If so, I'll design a more bare-bone character, which'll be added onto by way of giving them starter equipment.
In my head, I'm kind of imagining a lost odyssey feel in the art dept.
