ART WAR 4 | 2D | War of the Elements | Asena the Lost Wolf | roxana.chirila

Hello. My name is Roxana and I'll be creating a champion for the Lightning element.

Asena the Lost Wolf, a legendary warrior fighting as a master of lightning. She can project lighnting bolts out of her left arm and summon her ghost wolf, dealing lethal lightning damage.

I am very far behind on this, because exam season hit me hard. But since I am finally done with them, I can continue working on this.
So here is the rough character sheet for my champion. This is mainly to see if the mood and color scheme I had in mind are working. I am pretty happy, but might add some accents, since the color palette is very analogous. Don't know if I'll do it with her design or the composition/background later. I tried to go with a cold/northern theme for her, because of her association with wolves.
A little bit of backstory: due to a previous battle, she lost her right arm and got those scars on the right side of her face. Now she conjures a projection instead of her arm.

Working on the composition/values atm.
I still need to add a lot of things to the background and some enemies/warriors, but I feel like at least the lighting works.

Working a little bit more on the composition and background. Finally split everything into different layers, because I only worked on one layer until now (oops... old habits die hard I guess). Looks kinda rough now though, I still have to blend the layers a little bit.

Fixed the values a little bit

starting to add some color to it!

Small adjustments to the face (btw, that happy moment when photoshop recognizes your drawing as a face in liquify. Officially Photoshop approved). I also played with the values of the background a bit.

worked a little bit more on the wolf

Worked a little bit more on the hair.

some more details. still need to do the background and polish the wolf a tiny bit
