From Concept to Design

Sometimes I work out my OC designs, especially for my personas in rough details before I make an actual refsheet. This is to make sure I don’t feel unhappy or want to change things afterwards. In that manner, it saves time, a lot in fact.

Here’s everything I went through before I made the refsheet of Entropy.

The initial concept page, I’m mostly going over silhouette, what vibe do I want him to have? Most important details. For example that he’s the opposite of the Sal’varis form, and evokes more fear rather than wonder.

In the second page I’m refining mostly the face and the details I want to assume are the most significant to this character.  I was really proud of this, as most of this is what stuck around for the final design.

Here I’m going through silhouette again, thinking of extra details on the body, design for the halo. It’s fun to see how I go from idea to idea, and drop some in between. An example is that the ‘’coat tails’’ ended up not being used, and the nails eventually will end up just white. 

I do see I forgot to add the inside of the mouth on the refsheet at the end of this post, but I might make a smaller close-up image because I love fangs.

More detail on the back, going over the overall concept. Adding idea for marking on the top of the hand, slowly going over extra ideas, like adding a tail to give him some similarity to the Seedling. As technically Entropy’s design looks like both Sal’varis And Seedling sorta, due the color scheme and design similarities to Sal’varis.

And unfortunately, for those wondering. The tail was dropped! It felt a bit too overwhelming and outbalanced the rest of the design.

IMO its still good to go over those things, to explore what will work and what won’t. Thats the point of these sketches, because it’ll save me a lot of time.

When I draw a refsheet it can take up to 3-5 hours or longer. It depends on how much detail the design has.

Here’s more ideas on the tail, while the tail-tip looks cool, the tail itself was just too much for this design. As for the crown, that too, felt unneeded. It made him feel less like an ‘’eldritch being’’ and more like a god. Entropy does not view himself as divine, or a god. Gods reign over places, Entropy only serves his personal path. 

The gill markings were dropped as well. Alongside some marking ideas for the flower petals.

ON this page I was going through ideas for an outfit, needless to say I have not made one. He’s going to be barbie naked, so some of these ideas are shelved. Just like the last concept art page, which just made me uncomfortable.

Yep. Giving my eldritch being clothes is going to remain shelved until I figure out a proper style that doesn’t look awkward.

Perhaps Minimalism is the way to go, eventually.

And here’s the finished result!

I’m very proud of this. Unfortunately he had to wait since January.

A commission! Feels good to be somewhat productive.

They’re still open if anyone’s interested, by the way.

My finished DIY project. A week and a bit in the sun but it was worth it.

Also a snipped of also another of my DIY project of a year or so ago. It was a pain separating all of the parts for every color and while also going up and down a ladder (I am afraid of using ladders).

I made a mistake while coloring the last parts of the table. I forgot to fill completely a line but is under my keyboard so if I can't see it it doesn't exist.

My next goal is to redo also my work table (the one near the blue and green one full of shit)

I don't know what colors to use. I was thinking pink and brown or pink and orange but I haven't decided what combo to use yet

For this last minute diy, I used some leafy stems of bamboo that I’d taken from the bamboo plants in our yard and an empty container from a previous potted plant that sadly didn’t make it. A bit of sand with a touch of water kinda made it ideal for inserting the stems. This will be a temporary decor element for my outdoor space. Basically free and easy to make.
