I had a look on youtube and yeah your right! Thanks for the suggestion, i was always super bad at drawing metal haha.

Done the basic design (Without cloak or wing, i'll update this sheet once i have drawn them.)

I finished the reference! I will edit my first post and add it there to show what i have currently done.
Whoop!
I have never drawn a reference picture before... Im happy it turned out like this!

Hey, this rendering is pretty good for a 15 year old artist! And I'm interested in your gravity mage idea.

Just a little opinion; maybe you can change the colour of the those wing-like hair bands in her hair? Right now it looks like they're connected to her head because they're the same colour. Maybe yellow/gold to compliment the purple in her clothes. (If you want, you don't HAVE to do this. Just my opinion.)

Good luck with your character design. ^^

Actually thats a great idea! I just noticed that now that you said that, thank you, i'll edit it later.

It looks a lot better now, thanks!!

Sketched small ideas

Started to refine and get a feel for whats going on, the low light source is a pretty neat idea in my opinion because it makes her feel like she's above the world, her 'gravity' power will be dark purples/black so i thought it would be a good contrast from the light sky and clouds!

I kinda like how this is but im going to go a different direction as well and try to find something better.

Love the progress of your character! Illustration composition looks strong!

robyntaylor 2017-02-16 16:03:03 UTC #21

Thank you!

I havent drawn faces in ages.... So i thought i would draw the character that im drawing for the final illustation haha. Hope you like it!

robyntaylor 2017-02-17 21:48:54 UTC #23

Final idea for concept, i like the idea of her pulling stuff into a black hole.... cant wait to start going over everything, i always sketch super cartoony to begin with : )

berrysquare 2017-02-17 22:43:10 UTC #24

I think the illustration composition looks nice!

robyntaylor 2017-02-18 15:03:24 UTC #25

Thank you so much!

Okay so i called the last one final but hear me out, i woke up, and hated it! Like i absolutely loathed it, it was ugly and made no sense to me! So i decided to go for something calmer.... Gave her wings a purpose (sketch lines for that on another layer.) Anyway, in the picture, that isnt lineart, its more of a guide/how i want it to look when i paint it : ) Its still super sketchy though.

robyntaylor 2017-02-19 13:10:46 UTC #27

Okay finished for today... Maybe... probably not. I drew a town long long ago after playing a bit of elder scrolls online (which i didnt like honestly, i like games like league or overwatch more, that said skyrim has like a bajillion hours played on steam haha.) So i took that town, and messed it all up to hell, its still a little bit rough but i like it so far : )

Cough cough 10 thousand pixels cough cough i didnt realise what i was working in..... Quality of picture uploaded here is low because the file is too big otherwise... I wish i realised what i was working in sooner!

robyntaylor 2017-02-22 19:30:24 UTC #28

Eep working through problems

robyntaylor 2017-02-23 20:08:21 UTC #29

Hey its finished! This was actually a whole lot of fun! My first proper illustation!
I have the image in a higher quality on my computer though haha... making it my desktop background : )
