[Riot 2017 Art Contest] Snow day Zoe

Anarlie · Jan 2018

Hi! I've never participated in such huge contests before so this is my first try. Hope to make my best.
For my splash illustration I picked Zoe because I wanted to make something funny. Will reimagine her with a winter skin.
Here's some thumbs I made and concept sketches.

So I picked composition and made b/w sketch to check values. Color next!

First pass on color, not sure though...

As it stands, I think it's too close to her default colors. If you made her hair white into blue and changed the color of her scarf it'd read more as a snow day skin. Looking forward to seeing more updates! Good luck

Yeah, good point. I thought of that too. Thanks!
