Hello everyone! I am excited to be joining ArtWar.
The side I'll pick will be light (but we'll see where it goes).

I wrote out the ideas I have for my character first before drawing them. Will most likely change as I develop things.
Sketches to come!

Initial Idea:
Side: Light (In a sense of innocence? hmm)

[Dweller Girl]
Background: [Dweller Girl] is oldest of [3] children. Among them she is the least tamed and difficult to contain. Adventure is one of her favorite things. She occasionally sneaks out from the settlement for hours. Sometimes she would watch and mimic the soldiers training at the nearby barracks. Usually [Dweller Girl] is in trouble with her elders, but she has figured out how to avoid her problems.

From: [Cave Dwelling]
Summary: [Cave Dwelling] is an underground settlement known for minerals but its location is well hidden from outsiders. It’s rare to see [Cave Dwelling]’s inhabitants on the surface, usually they are seen trading their artwork and jewelry. Outsiders aren’t well accepted.
Words: Natural, Secured, Shinies
Things Found Here: Rocks, Crystals, Metal, Rustic Equipment/structures/tools, Natural Things
Survival: At night they surface and forage, during the day they retreat to the tunnels. Only the select few of the inhabitants are sent out to trade with outside civilizations.
Status: The settlement is under control by an elite civilization. The inhabitants hold secret meetings and collect makeshift weapons in hidden tunnels not known to outsiders.

(Environment Mood Board)

Age: Teen/Older Teen
Weapon: ??? (Ideas: Stick, Makeshift sword axe, Punch stuff, Poof things)

Vision for Style/Look
Theme: Cool, Medieval Fantasy, Simple, Stylized, Innocent
Stylized PBR

(Mood/Inspiration Board)
Left is more of look, Right is more of style I want to aim for

That is one well constructed backstory to your character can not wait to see what your first sketches will be like!

Thanks!
It's been a while since I've been able to work on her but here's some silhouettes. They're kind of quick and rough but I wanted to get a shape in my head.

This is my initial sketch. I still have to make a couple changes, but in general this is sort of the direction I want to go in.

Some colors and small adjustments

More playing around with colors and values, I'm definitely leaning towards the greens!

I dig #5. Feels like the strongest of the bunch.

Thanks for the feedback!

I started blocking her out. I might change some parts from the sketch as I figure her out in 3D hmm, I'm not sure about her outfit but we'll see

raymhey 2018-02-02 05:19:39 UTC #11

I felt that my initial sketch didn't really fit the feeling I was going for or her background either, so I decided to do a quick paint over on the blocking

+Potential Colors

She is looking more part of the dark side oop

Edit: I made further changes, too much brown and too many things happening in her outfit

Back to sculpting!

raymhey 2018-02-07 04:45:12 UTC #12

Making some progress on the sculpt.
Going to make a couple changes to her design because parts felt too much, like her bang that was supposed to be on the left and the second pauldron piece.
Poly painted for fun
