Thanks a lot @sicaeth, @Kreyhardt and @rgdraw !
I developped a bit my characters story and that girl will be a bit more focused on. I imagine her being an orphan aswell and finding the raptor in an oasis, I'll draw her a bit more and find her typical old arabian clothes

first thumbnails to brainstorm, I usually do my thumbnails with lines more than with shapes, so it's a bit sketchy ^^" !

rgdraw 2017-01-07 16:43:02 UTC #9

Great backstory for the character and the thumbnails are really dynamic !

thanks !

That face is very cute! I really like the style, you should be working at Disney/pixar!

imalou 2017-01-07 19:47:47 UTC #12

@mavkrogan thanks a lot !! to be honest I already had an interview/portfolio review with Disney and they liked my art and showed me support, it was super inspiring ! my goal in life is to work on an animated movie or create my own
my artstyle is more cartoony and I had many insecurities with this kind of contest ! But I'm having so much fun, theses characters really inspire me !!

I sketched a bit the look of my concept art sheet, that will be my last art for today, I need a break, I have draw a bit too much in just one day hehe

rgdraw 2017-01-07 22:54:30 UTC #13

Really nice concept sheet !

imalou 2017-01-08 02:55:17 UTC #14

thanks !

Continuing the discussion from ART WAR | 2D | Razdhaar the Raptor | Imalou:

Nice outfit design and her raptor is insane! haha The body paint of that raptor is amazing! The colors are so bright! Good work thats amazing

rgdraw 2017-01-08 15:14:12 UTC #16

Love the colors ! Nice work

imalou 2017-01-08 15:51:34 UTC #17

thanks you two !! I really appreciate your support
What do you think about that design ? is that epic enough for this contest ? Not out of the theme ? I was a bit afraid this morning about it D:

rgdraw 2017-01-08 16:53:02 UTC #18

You're welcome
I think it fits the theme, it's original and a raptor makes it epic just by saying it
Can't wait for the illustration now !

imalou 2017-01-08 22:16:29 UTC #19

I'm not done yet tho ! I wanna render that character concept board I'll start the illustration when I'll be 100% happy with the concepts and researches !

rgdraw 2017-01-08 22:39:33 UTC #20

Yeah ! Keep up the good work !
So curious to see what your gonna do

ninoune 2017-01-08 23:46:20 UTC #21

Oh this raptor is so cute ! I really love your work, keep it up !

imalou 2017-01-09 00:49:25 UTC #22

thanks a lot !!
here's a work in progress of the final character design

rgdraw 2017-01-09 12:03:34 UTC #23

Oh yeah ! Bad ass !

mavkrogan 2017-01-09 23:21:31 UTC #24

Those tusks give me the impression that they could open at any moment like the Predator mouth The details on that eye are just amazing

imalou 2017-01-21 22:31:22 UTC #25

Hey guys, I had to take a break, yep I wasn't feeling it. I felt something was wrong in my design and stopped having motivation. So I took a break and asked for feedbacks. I'm redoing the design in something i'm good at : cartoon. Over rendering my raptor failed and it's not what i'm looking for. So here's new sketches
character sketches

Thumbnails sketches / searching

rgdraw 2017-01-22 11:04:11 UTC #26

Oh this is really nice ! I can see it was good for you to take a break, it's even better !
