Description
Fay from Starfox 2. She is an enthusiastic space pilot from a rare video game.

I wanted to express her form simply. The prospect of humanoid animals, I think, lends itself better to lightheartedness and whimsy. Coloring without outlines was a small experiment, combined with the angular forms, that was inspired by Samurai Jack.

I also hinted at what her character might be. There's not much to go off of, but I guess she's bubbly, possibly geeky. It contrasts nicely with her wingman Miyu's coolness.
(dog/cat; cute/cool. opposites are great)

Some things to work on: Anatomy, like the dog ear lacking realistic form; hands; being careful of blurring colors (Fay was done on one layer because I like the influence of paint on its neighbors. still, this can lead to unwanted color contamination)
