So went into the medieval direction, apparently it fits more into the "elemental" fantasy that u would expect to see but it becomes a bit less striking more boring, also tested some colors.
for the future she should be naked, the more of her it's covered the less it says "earth elemental"
also using animals or animal forms for war could be a good idea since they are also of the earth (not vulture but wolves, bears, dinosaurs?)
Here is the last bit of exploration, settled on a more fantasy looking earth element, combining magic and metal armor, plus, the flag and decorative parts, also the armor is very decorative to express her status, as "champion of the earth elementals". also naked as mutch as posible because she would be made out of earth and stone and wood so theres no need for clothes other then defensive purposes (armor)
@mr_dessin thanks im happy u like them, the first image of the batch above is a bit too normal fantasy I think.. too little magic ? thats why im going with the last one.. magic sword and metamorph ability (she can make body parts a lot larger like her left arm)
@Oceane_Roh Thanks, yes the mech is interesting but it doesnt say "earth elemental" to me.. reads like "old lady with robot parts"...
@mr_dessin thanks
I'm really appreciating your different take on a humanoid figure for your hero. It's so common to see beautiful women and buff dudes (though nothing wrong with those of course) that it's really refreshing to see a character that goes against that grain. The design itself is lovely and creative too, nothing unlike what I've seen thus far, good job!
