Yeah, uh. It's been a while. Say hello to Natia, female villainess from the game Bomberman Hero for N64. She has a pet one-eyed laser-firing robotic spider named Cronus, and when she's not busy siccing him on Bomberman, she's hurling knives and whipping the hell out of anyone nearby. Also, she has an annoying laugh.
-Ewwwww. I hate the way the whip turned out. I suspect this is partly due to me BSing it on the computer (since originally this wasn't intended to be a CG, it was a sketch that happened to turn out fairly cool) and partly because I have no skills. Lawlz.
-And I need to work on my shading. It's supposed to be a mix of soft and hard shading, but the soft shading always turns out messy and crappy. The top of her head is way too sharp in contrast to the other parts of her. I was going to leave this just at hard cel-shading, but then decided to get some practice in. And, uh...yeah. I need the practice.
-I wish I could do more dynamic poses. Not that this pose isn't dynamic, but every time I do a pose that's action-y like this, it's always a few degrees short of being truly dynamic and energetic. Here, I think I could have done a lot better if I distorted the arm that's holding the whip a bit and did more exaggerated foreshortening. I was trying for it in the original sketch, but it totally didn't come across that way.
-Eff this background. I just didn't want a stupid gradient like with my two previous CGs.
-I really do hate the shading on her face.
You know, Misty from Bomberman Jetters is like the bastard child of Natia and Lilith - she has Natia's feline features but Lilith's occupation and outfit. Coincidence? Most likely.
