Digital art practice (Week 3)

This week, I wanted to finalise my project and ask for feedback on my work.

A neat idea Craig recommended was my character to have a pattern on the fabric to add some breakup and to take your eye away from that area.

Additionally, to have some iridescence on the shells/armour pieces.

Furthermore, he recommended I add some extra functionality to the pieces, for example making the belts on the back view functional. Rather than making a belt pull-over, have the belts detachable.

Design with callouts.










In addition to this process, I made it a priority to do my colour experimentation.

I ended up going with the above colour scheme, because it seemed to reflect insects very well, such as green of caterpillars, the grey hue of beetle shells and the previously mentioned iridescence.

The colour schemes were all contrasting colours, just for variety and experimentation, but I wanted my choice to be logical, it may have been nice to have a red bug carapace as armour, but it just wouldn't look realistic in this context so I discounted all the colour choices I came up with.
