Art Dev Log #1: Animus Non Grata - Amanda

In this dev log, I'll be taking you through some early tests and character designs for Animus Non Grata's protagonist - Amanda. 

Amanda

Amanda's final design is pretty much unchanged from her original concept.

Front View

I'm not a fan of giving Daz characters huge breasts. Aesthetically speaking, I don't think it looks that great. And practically, causes a lot of issues with clothing.

Face View

At first, we considered giving Amanda makeup, but ended up deciding against it. Below is what that would have looked like.

One aspect of designing Amanda that was a little troublesome was her energy meter. It was difficult to match this as described in the story. I ended up applying light emission to a wrist tattoo, and then adjusting for color and brightness to reach the final result. Below are some renders from when I was testing this.
