Another Critique

i showed my tutor my work, and he actually helped me quite a lot. He was stating that going down the bandit route is not bad, but im aiming for the wrong demographic. He stated that looked at my character from a 13 year old's point of view, they would assume my character to be more than dirty because of the dreadlocks as the assumption toward that hairstyle is that they are greasy. I personally don't have a problem with this, but i think that is the problem he was getting at, the game idea isn't for me but for the audience.

Figure 1: Disney's Jack Sparrow (copyright respective owners) and my Bandit Character

My tutor stated that if i was aiming for the a Jack Sparrow demographic, then this idea would have worked, but my idea was actually nothing to do with his mannerism. This does show to me that i still don't have a grasp on demographics and that im still making this idea for my self now the audience. He said that i need to define my demographic and move onto the design of the robots if his design is going to influence the design of the protagonist. Moving onto the design of the robots would be the best idea.
