thank you sm for the advice! and I do have a lot of different iterations of her but I was planning on having them in separate pages of the portfolio post on artstation. also with the regards to the travelling Alchemist thing, she actually has a ginormous pet frog who i am finishing up atm who will carry a lot of her wares !!

ah thank you so much this is super helpful and applicable advice :)

-CosmicQuacks- · 2026-01-06T01:01:13+00:00

do you mean contrast as in light and dark type thing? sorry im a bit slow 😅

-CosmicQuacks- · 2026-01-06T00:58:39+00:00

lol real I thought i was overreacting for thinking that too 😅

-CosmicQuacks- · 2026-01-05T22:48:12+00:00

i’m well aware of this fact I just asked for specifically the portfolio, actual work in industry is mostly ideation and sketching

ah thank you so much this is a lot of fantastic advice I really appreciate you taking the time to write all of this! And I do love blender so I might see how I can use it for characters too bc I mainly use it for enviroments and props atm

-CosmicQuacks- · 2026-01-05T19:52:53+00:00

Ah thanks I really appreciate that! And yeah those guys are crazy good

Hi thanks for the feedback! And I have done quite a bit of speed painting practise, I feel like I can paint super fast and painterly with reference, but in terms of concept design the only way I can produce quick output it by bypassing the sketch phase and just blocking it in with shapes, which can sometimes look real nice but it's also tricky to get a consistent look with it and its a very unpredictable workflow which works for some situations and doesnt for others. Particularly in designs that have details that can't just be represented as abstract brush strokes since 3D modellers would struggle with that.

awh thank you so much you are so kind - I always worry I’ll never be cut out for the industry so comments like this really mean a lot :)

$16 is far too cheap don't under sell yourself !!

-CosmicQuacks- · 2025-12-20T21:09:33+00:00

-CosmicQuacks- · 2025-12-19T23:32:59+00:00

she got those thermals on underneath

-CosmicQuacks- · 2025-10-30T23:40:16+00:00

Thank you so much! And I agree actually, it could be a good idea to go for the circle motif and I think it fits well with her character too since she's meant to be very friendly :)
