Hello there steemians~
For this week despite my tight schedule I really, really wanted to join this week's contest by @w0olf
When I first saw the challenge my mind went straight to Pop art.
Because Bright and Neon palette.
And when I was thinking of a character design, I remembered about a vinyl doll that I found when I was out window shopping. I only had a glance but the image stuck with me. And you know U have a good character design if the audience remembers your character.
The characteristic that I remember so much about the doll is her square-ish face and far apart eyes. And no, it is not one of those FUNKO pop dolls. This was... different....
Anywayyy~
Thus my character is born. I'm calling her Lotty. Her birth was initially going to be in a traditional way which is pen and paper .
Then I Changed my mine since this is a color challenge and it would be waayyyyy easier to just eye drop the colors. So I took a picture of my sketch and began my digital line art process.
nice and clean!
Next challenge, how to color the character in a way that isn't too in your face?
This process took me a while, but I manage to find a combination that I feel fits the character and doesn't feel to crowded. And dear steemians, I also decided to be a little extra today. I added more details to the hair and dress. The plain background is now filled with color and lines.
Most Importantly, I am happy with my design and how she turned out. I had a lot of fun drawing her.
Last but not least, The Process GIF :
Bye bye~
