Collaborate with the Midnight Burger team to visually develop Leif, the enigmatic galactic drifter.
First and foremost, here is my portfolio in PNG format.

Moving on to character design for Leif:
For young Leif, I thought to make him look a lot more like a 'drifter' - leather bomber jacket, tied hair, piercings. I gave him purple sunglasses that he continues to wear throughout his other designs.
For the period of time where he worked under Lafftrax, since they're a pirate, I put him in a standard pirate outfit.
As for the after, I just swapped his sunglasses out with more steampunk-ish goggles to match the rest of his aesthetic.
I changed his outfit almost entirely for his stakeout arc, where he wears denser, fluffier clothes for the weather on the planet he was camped out on. His sunglasses are swapped for a more weather appropriate visor, and his hair is bleached. I thought it would be bleached here because he's on the run and trying to change his appearance.
Current Leif's design is much more laid back. He has a chef's outfit that's unbuttoned after the first season ends. He keeps the purple sunglasses and has a red chef's bandanna. Under his chef's outfit is a turtleneck. He also has fingerless gloves.
As a bonus, I also have an old Leif design. He still has his sunglasses, but he's all bitter now and his hair is grown out. His outfit resembles his Young Leif outfit a bit more colourwise - I wanted to show that he was still trapped in the past.
