[Riot Art Contest] - Vi - To The Rescue
Hi all.
I am going to do an illustration of Vi during a stage written in her lore where she helps save the mine workers from a collapsed tunnel.
Not 100% about anything yet I think I will look at re-composing the images and treat this as first draft. I plan on making Vi take up more screen realistate.
I also want to add some tech so that she hasn't just freed the seven dwarves. The minors are just placeholders, as once I get a feeling for the tech I will update them to reflect the same sort of designs.

Here is the start of some rough colours going down (with white outlines still overlaid). Plans are to keep building on the colours some more, change the hairstyle to be closer to the original design rather tahn this over "swished" style. I will also look at starting the gloves in 3D to help with this image. Not sure if at this stage I will just use the 3D model to aid the perspective, or whether I detial them in 3D and render them out also.
Here is another look, a litte more colour dev and posing work.
I know what you mean. It may be the lighting also. I thik the seperation of her outer leg over her inner leg isn't that clear at the moment. I will definitely keep it in mind. I also have brought the waist in on the right a bit to conform to the LOL proportions more. I may need to re-look at this to make sure it all works.
Loving the pose though, and the colours are looooovely.
Also thanks for you lovely comments ont he colours and pose. I have been worried about it for a while now, but I think it is pretty much there now. So aside from the leg issue and the 3D gloves, then I will be able to move on with the painting..
Just a quick update with colour progress. I haven't progress much as I was in 3D today getting a mock up of the gauntlets for a perspective paint over.
Here it is anyway.
ANother quick update. Been jigging around a bit of stuff and working on the fists now.
Let me know what you think about the jacket change and the proportions. Hopefully there will be quite a bit more for you all to see next update.
It would be cool to see some other supportive story elements re-introduced with the new composition you've got going. This composition shot is much stronger than your initial mock ups but now there aren't any indications of her helping save the mine workers from a collapsed tunnel.
Keep it up!
