Tense Girl | Process

This is my offering for you all tonight. It ended up looking like a somewhat tense market girl, but I actually stumbled through a lot of different ideas before I finally ended up on this.

At first she was going to be some Elf on the run, hiding behind a tree, but the body gesture for that was kind of a pain in the ass so I did something else. Then she was going to be preparing for a wedding ceremony, stressing out about her uncertain future, but as I drew more the story started going in a different direction.

I settled on the tense looking market girl. Maybe she just witnessed somebody stealing something, or some street rat getting caught stealing something and about to get his hand cut off. Her dress really makes no sense, but I was just in the mood to draw some mindless details.

This started with me planning on making another animation gif, but I changed my mind so much as I was drawing it that I eventually stopped it. At a certain point I did think to start to save some progress steps though.

his was the point where I thought, hey maybe I should start saving some progress.

And at this point I figured out most of her nonsensical dress.

And here I finished up the drawing.

I added a little bit of value to separate the different elements, and give it a little bit of depth.

And here I further cheated my way into a little bit more depth by adding a little box behind her.

Well that's about all I have for you off tonight. Hope you like it! As always thanks for looking peeps!
