Characterdesign for Skyfritt AS
Skyfrit AS is a cybersecurity company setting up local datavaults in Norway, to make their customers less dependent on unsafe cloudservices. The knowledge they base their work on can be quite technical and difficult to understand at times. Which is why they want to have small explanatory comics making the technical stuff more available. I was assigned to develop these characters for them which they are going to use in their presentation and marketing: Big Tech, Hacker, Little Server, Big Server, Jostein and Ruben (who run Skyfritt).
