This is the character I designed some time ago for the first phase of the #nemesisartchallenge. Im very happy to present you "The Red Queen"!!😀
For this round I was battling the super talented character designer: https://www.artstation.com/trevor ,
who has done an insane piece you can check on his page!
I had some spare time to write a backstory that summarized the ideas i had for the design of the character that you can read in one of the images.🤓
To refresh your minds, in this challenge, that @Korylynnhubbell @trevorclaxton @giorgiobaroni and myself initially started, you put your creative abilities to the test against our fellow artists in a challenge of wits and artistic skill. This exercise focuses not only on creative ability and execution, but on an artist's skill in discerning direction from very limited sources (something every professional artist has been faced with at one time or another). The rules are simple: Artists are randomly paired then, independently from one another and in secret, create a protagonist for a newly invented IP. At the end of this 2 week period each hands over their creation, including whatever supporting materials and sketches they have, to their partner. The protagonist images are posted in pairs with links to your partner's work.
During the following 2 weeks each artist has to create an arch nemesis for their partner’s protagonist using only those supporting materials as direction. We want the final boss here, the character that makes our protagonist’s hair stand on end, the antithesis to everything he stands for.
