Shakespeare most often invented wholly new characters for each play. Although his job was much like being the writer for a television series, the audience did not usually expect the next episode to have the same characters as the previous one. Occasionally a play would take off and the audiences would demand a sequel. An example of that is Shakespeare's play Henry IV Part 1. The interaction between the Prince (called Prince Hal) and the lying, cheating, thieving, roistering booze-hound and general fatso Falstaff was so delightfully funny that the audience wanted more. So Shakespeare wrote Henry IV Part 2 which is also about Hal and Falstaff. He also wrote a comedy called The Merry Wives of Windsor in which Falstaff is caught by a couple of clever women. In what must have been the first trailer ever, the epilogue at the end of Henry IV Part 2 promises more about Hal and Falstaff in a future history play, but Shakespeare disappointed his audiences because in the play Falstaff dies offstage and we never see him again.

What characters in Shakespeare's plays did he model after Leonardo da Vinci?
None. Shakespeare did not "model his characters" on individuals. Since he borrowed most of his plots, the characters came with them. Shakespeare broadened the characters in the stories he found but rarely invented any. Many of his characters are stock characters or similar to them. (Maria in Twelfth Night, for example, is a soubrette) Falstaff if perhaps an exception. He appears to be entirely Shakespeare's character, and in making him Shakespeare drew no doubt on many real knights of his acquaintance. If Shakespeare had even heard of an artist who wandered from job to job around France and Italy a century earlier, his plays show no sign of such a character.
