Character Design- Gravity Falls

I'm quite a fan of Gravity Falls, Disney's newest animated series (finally children have a new series that's actually good-- Yes, I care a lot about what it is children are presented with for entertainment, I wouldn't be doing what I do otherwise). I could go on about the show's abundance of creativity and good humour but I'd rather focus on character design for the time being. The following belong to Brigette Barrager and were the very first character designs.

If you're interested in animation you'll notice character design more or less follows this trend : rough basic shapes, pencil sketches, character expression and productions sheets. The Living Lines Library ( a site which I recently came across) is loaded with concept art and I think their collection on 'Paranorman' (very fond of this one) is the perfect example.
