2D Submission

The final piece for the 2D project is finally finished.


Here we have Ylewah standing with her shovel in the ground tired from trying to dig through a solid patch of earth comprised of 4% soil and 96% stones. I'm quite happy with how the pose came out as well as the choice to shade darker areas with a purple tint. I still feel like my lighting could do with some work but there are certain ares such as the legs and trousers that I am quite happy with. 


The different views of Ylewah actually painted after the main piece when I had a good idea of clothing and colour scheme for the character. This job was made easier as I could easily paint over the pre-existing skeleton view's of Ylewah.


One sheet detailing aspects of Ylewah as well as her story about how she became and Archaeologist.

All in all I felt this project went quite well but some some lapses in time management because of all the other assignments which we were given for this term.

The Paint

After talking to Steve about my final and going over my concepts for the main piece he noted it could be a little more dynamic than a character just standing. So I made it slightly more dynamic with standing AND stretching!



I'm happy with the face and general pose and the fact the shovel I drew earlier has come in really handy. The painting seems to be going well. I think the use of purple for ares of shadow was a good idea but others'll be the judge of that.

Ylewah Skeleton views

I have finished up the turn-around skeleton views of Ylewah which will serve as good reference for the proportioning of my main piece as well as give me something to work on for the model sheet.
