Norman Yvaine painting

I think these little stars are a little corny, but I kind of love them and I think they fit.

Here is the boat so far. I'm going to work at it a bit more before turning it in.

Here's a bunch of doodles leading up to the final design. I'm in the middle of putting all the bells and whistles on it. Then to paint!

Norman Yvaine painting update

So I finally started to work on her again. for this I just fixed the hair based on our critique a few weeks back. What do you guys think? I did the hair, and I started going over the edges in some texture.

So here is another update of the painting. still working hard on it. Is anything sticking out that I should address? Also, I changed the bg color, I think it works better now.


Here is another update to the update. Cassandra helped me out with her pose. It was a simple fix, but I think its working a lot better.

So here's a work in progress of the painting. Mostly focusing on the head. Do you guys think this is starting to work? Granted its not 100% done.

Here's some tie downs of the character after playing around with head highs and hair (i'll post those too).

I'm afaid she looks a little anime ish. Not a lot. But something about it says theres an anime like influence. Maybe the hair? But i think the hair fits her. Any-who. I don't think its a huge deal. Unless you guys think so or you have a simple fix for it.

As for now I'll do some ruff paintings of her to lock down a color palette.



Revised:
I moved her hands in order to shorten her arms, moved her mouth up and chopped some fingers off.

Sorry I'm a day late on the upload. I Think a couple things should be done style wise. If you look at the reference a lot of the characters are soft and round, I think this could be mimicked more in our designs for the good guys, I think some sharps are need for the villains. I liked the idea of having the queen witch having all three witches combined, like in the secret of kells. I just think it will give us a different shape. I just tried to make the girl cute. Again, i think our lead good guys should be soft and somewhat squishy looking.
