Another overdue redesign! This one is for my character Luca :3
She has gone through probably six redesigns at this point. She is an old character and has evolved a lot over the years, but I feel like this new design really nails her core identity down. She is cute but deadly. I know that concept is nothing original, but it definitely does describe her! Her previous redesign was quite drastic; I gave her vibrant dark blue hair and changed a few other aspects. I feel like this current design combines the elements I enjoyed from her blue-hair redesign with the elements I was starting to miss from her older designs.
Mainly:
- Old green hair
- Old green and pink color palette (like a watermelon :3)
- New cybernetic upgrades
- New tattoos
- New fashion style
- New weapons
- …and more minute details!
I was definitely leaning into a vibrant cyberpunk look for her. I gave her cybernetic legs since she is mobile and agile in combat. Although I find drawing tattoos very tedious, I decided to give her some colorful ones since she is definitely the type to enjoy body modifications. Luca originally had more of a dagger weapon, but I changed them into katanas. I feel like daggers probably make more sense with her combat style, but I’ll put that aside since her new weapons look so cool!
One last interesting thing in her design is that she kind of reminds me of those super toxic frogs. The ones with bright green or red colorings. She definitely is something like that. Her colors are intense, and maybe for a good reason :3
