Description Here's the lineart for a redesign of my old piece: [link]

I'll be colouring it soon and adding a trail of feathers at the back. Yeps, they are mystical feathers that glow XD

I made her look more princessy and I added a butterfly motif to her boots. Just trying something more adventurous out. The problem is, I have no idea on how to incorporate her knit fabric into this design T_T It doesn't seem to go with the pattern.

[EDIT]
Just posting a screenshot of what it looks like so far. The dark blue part of the cloak will have crystals sewn into it to look like stars when I'm done.

Iono *looks at it* It doesn't seem like something Rinoia would wear... Just an opinion, so you may ignore it. But I LOVED the first artwork ^ ^ It looked more Rinoaish (Even though I HATE her)

Yea, it did look more Rinoa-ish, but it seemed to derivative for my tastes XP

And it was fun to try out a more white-mage type costume on her.

Thanks, yo! Lots of people still like the colours of the first one.

I think this design, overall, is much cuter... and more Rinoa... And the skirt is ABSOLUTELY cute.

Firnheledien In reply to Inspirrational [2007-05-21 13:45:46 +0000 UTC]

It kind of came about as an accident actually XD I wanted to play around with her pants a bit more.

Wow~~ I love the way you shaded it so far~! Can't wait to see when it's done!

Firnheledien In reply to Zue [2007-05-17 09:44:55 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I manually blend everything with brushstrokes and no blenders (makes the colour muddy XP) that's why it's taking so long.

For now the skirt lining is giving me problems XP

Haha I just practiced. And I have a tablet. I used to be terrified of digital inking though.

Hm, interesting thought there!

Looks great. Maybe give her a knit headband.

Firnheledien In reply to DragonDarkFire [2007-05-13 08:37:34 +0000 UTC]

Ergh... ew. I wanted to go for a classy look. A headband would make her look like she's in some 80s aerobics class XP

DragonDarkFire In reply to Firnheledien [2007-05-14 19:57:00 +0000 UTC]

I guess it could make it look like that. I just thought it'd make her look more innocent. ^_^ But hey, if it makes her looks 80's you can toss in some knitted leg warmers too.

Firnheledien In reply to DragonDarkFire [2007-05-14 20:38:40 +0000 UTC]

Umm... I don't like the 80s. And I didn't like the gangsta thing Seifer had in KH2 with the beanie XP

DragonDarkFire In reply to Firnheledien [2007-05-15 02:15:55 +0000 UTC]

Well then don't do it. You could do something simple like a real thin strip of knitted material around her upper arm or something. I didn't like the gangster thing either.

This one looks great.

But I kinda like the original abit more...

Firnheledien In reply to Corky-Lunn [2007-05-13 08:51:12 +0000 UTC]

Oh well. I just felt the original one was too derivative. I wanted to be more adventurous with the design. And the skirt just didn't make sense.

Corky-Lunn In reply to Firnheledien [2007-05-15 16:44:27 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. Tetsuya Nomura made alot of the costumes too derivative, just so people would understand who they were (like it wouldn't be hard)
I thought it would be a great costume to go straight into the KH 1 or 2 game.

But being adventurous is so much fun ^^

Firnheledien In reply to Corky-Lunn [2007-05-15 17:02:25 +0000 UTC]

Yea. But this too is derivative of the FFXII style XP

as for trying to get texture into her clothing:

I don't know if there's anything at all that will help there, but there seems to be so many tutorials.

I meant I didn't think that ribknit would go with this design.

Well, we will see.

There's supposed to be 2 more KH titles coming out.

Haha thanks XD Just hope you feel the same way after seeing the coloured version. Some people might not like the pink I put in XPP

Firnheledien In reply to Istriel [2007-05-12 17:42:53 +0000 UTC]

Haha thanks. Yes, I'd love butterfly boots too *_*

I just felt the first design was a bit weird. The asymmetrical skirt was rubbish! XP
I guess this design is more FFXII influenced XP
