A client character design commission. I worked closely with my client and their written brief to create the vision of their character that cleanly and aesthetically combined all the features the client liked.
"From the Sea of Moving Ice, Jyndaryn is a bright and agile explorer who loves to solve mysteries, and feels the most comfortable in the wild and diving deep into uncharted waters." - client character brief

Process
Sketches-
The first three sketch iterations spans across a range of potential poses, costume configurations, and styles to give the client options within their given brief and preferences. The line-only sketch exploration without value or colors is to primarily focus on costuming and details.
Colors-
The refined sketch goes through a coloring and value exploration process similar to the sketch phase where I explore different color and value ranges within the client's written brief. After refining the colors, the final illustration is brought to life.
