2D Art Week 007 - Bringing It All Together Illustration 1

  Bringing It All Together Illustration 1

  HEEEEEEYYYYOOOOOOO! I writing this a quarter past midnight so this'll probably be a doozy. This week we were to fully flesh out our declared concept (see previous post) by character/or environment and then render the other the following week. I chose to start with my character. To reiterate, for my concept I chose Robin Hood as a female in a sci-fi setting (AKA Colonel Mustard in the library with the candlestick!) So without further ado, let's get to it!

Here's some concepts and references I gathered that inspired me -

Starting out, I roughed out a few thumbnails to help decide on the pose I wanted my character to be in. Needless to say, as wonky and somewhat disproportionate as they may be, it was a good base for me to work off of, as I could clean up the linework later. In this case, they were quick and effective

With my pose chosen, I then did a few variations of the general look I was going for, then settled on one that was composed of all the ideas I liked

I then cleaned up my linework to get ready for implementing my values

Once I blocked out my values, I designed Robin's bow and did its values as well (no progress shots for that one ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

Finally, I added ZE COLORSSSSS
