WIP - Tattooed bikini chick

Luke de Sade · 12-25-2009, 11:44 PM

I just finished this character design for a script I'm writing called "Coyote Blues". This is one of the main characters: Sasha "Boobs" McKenzie.

Luke de Sade · 12-27-2009, 07:12 PM

Here's the finished version (up there, actually).

Magnus · 12-27-2009, 07:39 PM

I like her. And I liked the start of your script as well. I'll follow this process. Keep up the work!

Inking on this just doesn't work for me. It seems to flatten areas, especially her hands. It's a good pose, but would have worked better with a much lighter touch on the ink lines.

^ Agreed. ^ The flat, dead-weight even line around the outside edge of the figure is too heavy and doesn't do anything to bring out the otherwise well-done aspects of the drawing itself. There's little sense of form or shape and the play of light across the forms as a result of using that thick line. The rendering on her bikini and boots, etc., works well though. Hope this helps.

Hmm. Why is she called "Boobs"?

Despite the confusing name, very awesome! Keep it up!

Luke de Sade · 12-28-2009, 07:47 AM

About the inking, yeah, I see what you guys mean. I'll try to thin those lines a bit and see how it goes.

@martin993: I hope you're being sarcastic.

Luke de Sade · 12-28-2009, 08:00 PM

Ok, here we go. Final version. I thinned the outline some. I'm liking this version better.

Phillup · 12-28-2009, 10:17 PM

Yeah, the thinner lines are amazing, THIS is amazing...
