Eva OC Commission
Original Character Design Commission done for Comm Mikel
This is Eva, one of the characters for his comic, Zodiac Corps.
I had fun playing around with Color Dodge, Add(Glow), Ovelay and Multiply effects to put more oomf into her design. At the same time, I had to limit myself in placing details because she is supposed to be of low rank among a team. This should be the first of my many studies into space suits and Sci Fi characters. I would definitely create separate illustrations for the rejected designs * u*)9
Beams on!
Beams off(normal mode)
Initial sketches. The one that got approved is the left most. My client also wanted to incorporate the arms of the middle design and the boots of the right most.
Line art done
Closer view. I found out that I was working on a tiny canvas. I resized it later on and started coloring
Base Colors. Client wanted to make sure the color comes out as navy blue. I think this coloring style suits me, yeaah? No? Okaay haha
Laid in the darker tones. also placed this snake like texture. I was planning to have this effect like her energy is distributed and insulated by the blue parts of the suit.
Almost done
I used a hexagon shaped brush for textures, then added some detail on corners that are lit.
