Hey hey, I'm here with a quick update on some character designing. Starting out, here's the thumbnails of where Amelia's design started:
My general concept for this character was a western styled girl who'd grown up as a proper lady, then as a result of some incident decided to go rogue and be all...awesome (yeah yeah, stories aren't really my thing). Either way, this is why she has a mix of female and male clothing.
The whole western theme isn't something I've delved into before, so coming up with her outfit was challenging and took quite a bit of research. Admittedly, all of my boot designs are completely off the wall and not period at all...I tend to like embellishing.
Either way, she was a fun character to design and has a nice flow so far. I'll be posting the line art for the chosen design in the coming days as well.
