My idea is that a fairy had to sacrifice herself for the earth so that all the other creatures who lived in the forest may live. So she is getting sucked slowly into the earth and absorbing its power but she loses the ability to fly and be “free”
Here are some silhouette/ sketches
Would love your opinions!
Which one do you like more?
Good luck to whosever doing this too :smile:

1 + 2 stand out, 4+5 could have potential.

very rough sketch of my character would love to know which one you like better please :smile:
A or b?
A bit of backstory:
Kaia used to be a fairy and her family in the forest was under attack buy the elements, she gave everything she could and forest creatures started dying because she wasn’t powerful enough.
Then the earth offered her its power in exchange for her to become part of the earth.

Pose A works better for the trapped / consumed by the earth backstory. B seems a lot more of a carefree pose. Depends how happy she is meant to me about her mystical pact really.

i agree, maybe i can make b a little more trapped, thanks for the advice :smile:

I totally agree, the A have this feeling of "damsel in distress" who never give up fighting.
Great work so far, this is really cool !

I continued the drawings just so I know the direction,I’m not sure which one I like more. But i finally see where it’s headed which is nice I hope to continue this at a faster past at this point.
Which do you like?
A is holding a Phoenix bird btw 🙃

I still love the second one more but I don't know if the baby phoenix isn't too much an emblem of the fire element. And making peace with the enemy could be a bit of a gamble maybe ?

I’ve been dreaming about this character a lot ,so I decided I’m switching to lightning, I hope that’s ok
I’m really excited about this illustration!

I think you’re completely right about the phenix-if I would’ve continued with that one I would’ve made it into an earth creature, I love the second one for the earth character but I decided I want to do lightning.would love to know what you think 😊

I'd say follow your heart ! If you want to make her a lightning character that's perfectly fine ! :blush:
The compo is very well suited for a lightning character. You surely would need to clean the skin a bit but the storm of colours is a part of the ambient real storm so I'd say you are in a very nice path !
