Title: Character Design: steam punk girl
Name: Gary Lai
Country: Canada
Software: Painter, Photoshop
Hello. It's been a long time.
This is a character I came up with the intention of creating a 3D model out of. I wanted a typical tough but pretty girl and a simple design (maybe too simple?). Right now I am unsure of a few parts, such as her armor and boots, so i may revise them at a later time. In any case, this was also a painting practice for myself to get back into drawing.
I had imagined her to be in some sort of future/PA desert setting, so steam or cyber punk may not be the best description. She could probably use a few more things to make the design a bit more interesting, like goggles and a weapon of some sorts, and again, I will probably add those at a later time. Her arm is not actually supposed to be a replacement arm but armor plating instead. The forearm is very large and simple and I had imagined her using it as a shield of sorts and also to punch with. I realise that I kinda drew the end of the arm a bit flat, doh!
Most of the work was done in Painter 9, spread over several nights... a few hours here and there. I used Photoshop for finishing touches and adjustments. Please let me hear your thoughts and thanks for looking.
