Here I began to trace the weapon for my character, which is a rather elegant but somewhat threatening dagger. I spent a good 30 minutes making sure the pathing for the weapon was high quality and not a rushed job. The finished dagger can be seen in my blog!

These are the first ideas I pieced together, which will soon merge together to form Rae Sunbreaker, the character I created. I retrieved these images from multiples places on the internet, and they are sourced on my blog with the credit where it’s due.

I had taken real life pictures to assist me with proportion and stance of my character. Although they never majorly influenced my final character, they helped with anatomy/ratio etc.

And on another note of production on the same day, I had pieced different parts of my research

together to begin creating my character.

I soon decided that the previous background was way too complicated to recreate with the pen tool, so I went back and picked another background, and thought that the rising sun theme from Japan would be somewhat suitable.
