Sketchbook: Chrysanthi Lykousi

Chrysanthi · Jun 2017

Greetings,

I created this sketchbook to upload all my studies, quicksculpts and sketches. Feedback and C&C is always appreciated!

I am currently working on various studies on stylized characters to get better on my designs.

My first try on stylized/semi-realistic characteristics was this girl. I wasn't too happy with the hair and i believe i could make bigger eyes for more exaggeration. Also, the shadow around the eyes is should be cooler and the cheeks warmer.

Ginger Elf Girl
My second try in stylized characteristics. Here i pushed the shapes more for a more cartoony feel. I really enjoyed this one! I'll probably do a boy version of this! Maybe her twin brother?

Nice looking stuff.
A suggestion tho, you'll get more visual interest in your sculpts/models if you play a little with hard angles to compliment all the soft ones.
Keep it up!

Chrysanthi · Jun 2017

@Rickshaw Helloooooo! By hard angles you mean that i should make the planes of the face sharper? Thanks a lot for the feedback! ^_^

Rickshaw · Jun 2017

It's hard to explain so I made a quick paintover. Hope it helps.

Chrysanthi · Jun 2017

@Rickshaw Yeah it helps a lot and i love this style! I'll try to practice on it so i can achieve this effect! Thank you! ^_^

ZeroStrike · Jun 2017

I really love your character art and style. I am not the best when it could to suggesting crit for character art, but keep practicing and keep getting better.

Chrysanthi · Jun 2017

@ZeroStrike Thank you so much! I'll upload more soon!

CaesarAlbertus · Jun 2017

Nice work i agree with Rickshaw about sharper the details, keep it up¡¡¡

JTurk3D · Jun 2017

This is awesome! Yeah I agree as well with the sharper details, definitely helps things pop a little more. Great work! Look forward to seeing more!

Chrysanthi · Jun 2017

Thank you so much for the feedback guys! I really appreciate it!

Working on her elf brother now practicing these edges. Then i intend to do some more touch ups on the girl so they can look similar! The hair is giving me a hard time but i'll get there eventually...! XD

Was in the mood to sculpt something cute for fun. Decided to go with kid Chichi from the original Dragonball series. I really love the design and the colors of the characters in this anime, i might do more someday!
