The player is introduced to this character when the player goes to the circus for the first time. The Ring Master likes to Portray himself to be relaxed, ditzy, full of energy and almost like a father to the circus&#8217; residents, but this couldn&#8217;t be further from the truth; When the player finds out what happens during the night, the truth is revealed. He is a callous, twisted and calculated leader responsible for all the missing people in the circus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mood boards<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"804\" height=\"574\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-21.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-291\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-21.png 804w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-21-300x214.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-21-768x548.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is an initial mood I made for this character but as I started to make initial sketches, I figured that the images were too vague and I was thinking of the entire cast instead of one character. So I started from scratch again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"796\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-22.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-292\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-22.png 796w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-22-300x217.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-22-768x555.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then I started to look at Pinterest again with the Ring Master in mind- and ONLY this character. I thought about the possible colours he&#8217;d wear, the accessories and the silhouette of his design. Eventually, I compiled images that look like a stereotypical Ring Master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main things I want to include in his design are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The colour red and yellow<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A big top hat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A slicked back hairstyle<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Initial Sketches<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"594\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-19-1024x594.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-19-1024x594.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-19-300x174.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-19-768x446.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-19.png 1046w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I came up with several different sketches for this character as I wanted to nail the design on the head. In the majority of these concepts, I have designed the Ring Master to be in a long tail coat as I think it&#8217;s fitting for his profession, I also experimented with different types of hats and shoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Finalised Design<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"952\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-56-1024x952.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-777\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-56-1024x952.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-56-300x279.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-56-768x714.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/pv2g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2024\/11\/image-56.png 1055w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, I came up with this design as his costume. I went back onto Pinterest to find more specific images for the aspects of his design and stuck with 3 main colours for his colour palette.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ring Master in No Entry After Midnight is the main antagonist of the game.
