I made this back in April because we were doing character design in my least favorite class with my least favorite medium: digital art. Using Adobe Illustrator which is my arch nemesis, while also using vectors. It made me wanna throw both my iPad and laptop out the window.

I may do another rendition of this character who I ended up naming Noche. She’s a Victorian Railways R Class locomotive.
