ART WAR | 2D | Priestess of secret knowledge | Katya_Cyan

[katya_cyan]

Hi)
My champion is Priestess of secret knowledge.
Priestess is not a feeble princess, grew up in demonic clan of ancient mountains she educated by monks, and can stand up for herself in hand-to-hand fighting from young age. She's strong guardian of her clan, protecting it’s secrets from newcomers.

At first i wanted to find her style in armor. It may be dark metal, copper-similar metals, some gold, leather, dragon scales, claws and feathers.

These were 3 main quick sketches, cos I can’t decide from them I combined them into one.

Quickly head and armor sketches:

Some color. I try to show dark magic fire. Researching analogs for inspiration in the nature I found birds Phasianus. Think this amazing colors is what I need ^-^

Color sketch:

This is my progress. C&C wellcome.

But maybe her fingers are too short

Can't wait to see more!

Her unusual weapons are ancient lore of her clan, they can magically transform itself assisting priestess to attack opponent, shielding her, and help to summon various beasts.

This wepon allows her to use dark embed blades and also casting destructive spells from scrolls. Most powerful of them is Dark Phoenix summon - creature of immence power, conjured from shadows and dark emotions phoenix carries fear and contamination to priestess enemies, while her weapons ends their pitiful lives.

I start thinking for compositions also... What do you think? (o_O)

Comp number 4 is the strongest in my opinion. It really focuses on her without the distraction of other elements and shows her in her element if that makes sense. You still might be able to push the gesture and flow of the image but overall it's a solid comp. The Colors of your character are amazing as I said before. The demon spirit bird thing you have looks awesome. It really compliments your character really well.
Also don't forget to do the back view. I hate to say this but I want to make sure nothing is disqualified in the end. The is awesome so keep up the good work.

[katya_cyan]

@malcom Thank you so much) I will try to finish back view soon )

[rgdraw]

[katya_cyan]

I started working on illustration, chose composition №4 ^-^ So now I want to go for tone, pose, story, and try use all elements n skills I gave her in the concept.
