First time posting here and first time entering a contest on here. Super excited with this subject and enjoying what I am making so far. I have come up with a light surfer that uses the power of light to fight the darkeness while riding the sky with a board light. I was inspired by snowboarding culture, skydive boarding and the anime Eureka 7. I am still working on the sketches and coming up with new ideas. Let me know what you all think.

Again just trying to figure out the color scheme for this character. My character is a soldier that uses a hover board and the power of light to fight. Just trying to figure out the right color scheme.

While I was experimentign with the colors this was the one I decide to go with. Sorry for the late upload. Thought it would be important to share.

I created a futuristic soldier that uses the power of light to combat against a dark invasion. Most attacks occur in from the sky so a branch of soldiers had to be created to combat an aerial invasion. Sky boarding is the best option to maneuver and attack in the sky. While in light mode, the ability to have access to a strong powerful energy, can be used to defend but also a way to propel the user, thanks to the armor.
