Design of the main character

The idea all came about for this story when I saw a character in my head. After some working I managed to get the character down to the way I wanted it. However, the whole point was that you could hardly see his identity. I am still in debate whether he should talk or not. Loving "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and the way the chief has such a presence even though even though he doesn't speak, I thought that this could all be done without the main character talking. The big issue is now that I am developing the story, the first scene is shot in the psychiatrist's office, and there is a dialogue.

Anyway, this is the design of the main character I did over a year ago, and was the motivation for my friends to encourage me to get on with it. I will post other designs and character studies as the project develops.

Bedlam

Some time ago I had a great idea for a story. It was basically the concept of what would happen to a man if he found himself in a mental asylum and had to get out. That his only goal was to escape the madness, as he believed himself to be sane. What would happen if he finally found that door to the outside world and when he go there...his biggest nightmare became reality!!
