Hi everyone!
I saw this contest a bit late but I still decided to give it a try and do my best!
I decided that the "Circus" theme was not really into the league, and also after watching "The Greatest Showman" for the second time, I was so hyped about doing a skin based on the circus.
This is my moodboard with plenty of references (Love Live, Kuroshitsuji, Cirque du Soleil, Zendaya...). I wanted something delicate and pure for Orianna dancing in the air.

So with all of that in mind, I began with quick sketches for Orianna clothes and trying different hairstyles. You can see 3 styles here: The "Olympic dress" style, the White Lolita style and more like a Steampunk Clown. I can't decide yet on with style should I focus, but I want WHITE for the main color of the skin


Please give me your thoughts on this! I can mix whatever in all these designs and combine then

tell me what its your favourite!

Here are some hairstyles designs for Orianna. I like short hair or some updos. Maybe with an exotic hair color (like pink or blue) or white hair with black roots would be fine. Need to do a test color soon
I had so much problem shading her face because is white and it has colorful makeup, and also with the hair. I will redo the chest part
And also, the background process (it cost me a lot because I never do complicated backgrounds in my illustrations)
little variations with lights and shadows from the stage
This is the final version with the color correction ! Hope you like it!
