Blazing
My journey and explorations through the Art War 4 challenge. I was going for a more splash art type of illustration and character :)
The final render
A more developed concept exploration, after revising.
This was step one, I had no idea what I wanted to do, only choice I made here was the fire theme.
Using some of the very vague designs as ideas, I tried to explore illustration potential, and choose designs that could look good as a splash art.
After choosing a lava lady I started looking for possible design variations.
Quick color testing and small itterations, mostly thinking about the flames.
More in-depth iterations, thinking about materials and shapes.

Adding colors
Rendering
Changed direction a bit to bring more focus on to the character, made a couple changes on the design.
