Reply To: [ENDED] BC2-1803 – March 2018 Class Homepage – Creating Stylized Characters with Blender
Homework Submission part 2, Concept Art:
I decided to use one of the characters I have planned for a story that I had on my head for a long time. This is Bianca:
She’s not the main character, nor is she part of the main conflict. She’s that type of character that shows up in a teaser after the credits roll. She’s very special to me, she’s based on a dear pet of mine who had been with me for many, many years.
She also has a cloak that covers her whole body, but that would be cheating. Maybe I’ll add some armor…
Back to the assignment: Because I plan to use this story for a videogame, she is supposed to be a boss with multiple phases, so she has: human-form->Mad Beast form->TrueForm, and if the player chooses to “save” her and add her to the party-> Depowered Form, which is the one I decided to (terribly) draw.
Before starting drawing, while looking on Pinterest for inspiration I stumbled upon this beautiful piece of art that actually shocked me at how much it resembled what I had on my mind for her human face (Or maybe I’m not as good at designing original characters as I though):
(Cyber Candy Girls Bloo by MoonlightOrange)
Really cool clothes, but I’ll keep the trusty old cloak. Maybe I’ll add more details…
Also the pose is lovely, so I used it as a help guide (I suck at drawing, took me 3 days and I can’t even draw simple hands). Now I can do 2 out of 4 modes! Although I’ll probably try to make the one from my concept shorter and as cute as Nanachi (from Made in Abyss) so is not just a face swap:
Pinterest is a really cool place you know?
