Not alot to say about this one.

We fleshed out the head a bit to fit in with my idea more, and tightened up the look of the clothing. The sloping shoulders are gone for a more ‘stylish’ look, and we’ve slimmed the sleeves a bit.

I wanted the robe to have a more dynamic feel to it as well. It looked a little limp before, kind of doctor-looking. Also gone is the kind of teeshirt and pants look for something a bit more professional looking.

Only two things spring to mind right now: The shirt/pants thing looks a bit too contemporary, and I kind of wanted the legs to have a chunkier, more robust feel to them. Maybe a couple small mods to the head.

Next post will be the final version! We got this one pretty close from the start, and it’s really helping me with my descriptive writing. :D

She usually wears a cloak, but more for the image it gives her than for any practical concerns. She just looks more fearful this way. She can quickly detach and [Read more...]

Almost done! We got the armour mostly squared away, decided on the face shading, and now all that was needed was to make a version with a cloak! The final version next time!

Commissioned Art: Pirate WIP v2

Version two! This character is supposed to wear more traditional bits of armour, so the kind of futuristic super-heroine armour didn’t really fit in with my image of the character, although I think it would’ve looked kickass for another type of character. She also needed to be a little younger looking, and the shading added to the eyes.
