DR: Kares | NPC B1 Book Keeper Character Concept Art
This set of designs is part of my personal project. Since my HDD broke down and I'm waiting for the lab to restore most of the PSD files, I'm showing some of the pieces as WIPs.
Sometimes I use my personal work as a motivational step to teach myself other things. This time, I was working on better feedback documentation and testing new workflows for my future AD workflows in JIRA. So it was quite fun to use one of my older artworks as a pretense for a possible redesign.
Semi-final version. Once I get my PC back, I intend to refine this piece. The lighter fabric is bothering me too much.
Karez's invisibility ability is one of his main characteristics. I plan to do VFX and perhaps animation concept explorations too.
Ortho views. I haven't done these in a long time!
For his secondary weapon, I was thinking about a one-handed blade. For this task I also wanted to do everything in lineart before I move to 3D modeling. I usually work in photomanipulation techinques for callouts since it is quicker.
Further iterations of the chosen design. Most of the VFX for this class was established a while ago, so this time I only had to explore colors, brightness, and size.
I kind of like a two-handed weapon too. I will probably reserve this idea for another character from the Obsidian archive location.
I created this character a few years ago. This lineart, along with an art bible I'm currently working on, served as the starting point for this collection of designs.
