While thinking up a back story and answering a character questionnaire, I wondered what this new female elf would be like.
I thought of movies and shows with elves in it and I realized there's this cliche of elfs being "perfect" , "wise" and "stoic", and then made up my mind to not go along with that. I wanted a character that is more or less relatable to the audience, more human, even when she is not.
I then decided to go with one of preliminary sketches of her that I liked best, then I modified it to fit the character's new given description and story.
I made her facial features younger (by squishing her face for instance) big eyes etc.
This is a quick painting of her, I focused on her facial features, the costume is in the brainstorming stage below.
Too bad I can only pick one!
And finally, this is Duncan's model sheet!
Made a proper front view and corrected his side view (Thanks for the notes Rob!)
Next week I'll be moving forward to finalizing Aereldeth's costume and some other character sketches, hope it goes well!
