Serena

Serena

Serena is a character I created for my game that is loosely based on the concept of Pride and Greed. I'm gonna show some of my ideas for her and some concept art under the cut, as well as full renders.

Personality: Sererna is extremely dramatic and quick to anger. Her eye theme alludes to always being watching, judging, and wanting more. She lives high up in isolation with her treasures and her snakes, it is unknown how conscious they are or if they are purely an extension of Serena's own self-preservation. She is easily distracted by praise and loyal to those she thinks deserve it.

Gameplay: Serena flies faster and faster through space as the player takes his belongings. To delay it, you must hit its big eye, temporarily confusing it. Possible attacks: Long distance (from above) she hits you with feather projectiles as if they were lightning; Medium distance (sides) the snakes extend to bite you (making the player temporarily slower) and UNDECIDED Short distance 1. (circular) giving a low kick to the player 2. (from above) catching the player by the feet and throwing him away when it gets too close 3. (front) flapping its wings strongly in order to push the player back.

Full renders. I almost didn't do expression 5 since I was supposed to re-use poses for different expressions but I just had so much fun doing reference poses for wings I had too many photos lmao. I think it reflects well on the character to be light on her feet and always moving around

Here is her concept art and color test. I pretty much strainght away wanted her to have the colors of the greek eyes plus some bronze and gold to complement the pride and greed theme, so I just had to decide which colors go where. I did a poll on instagram todecide at the end. I designed her doing a lot of tiny drawings so it could be understood in a smaller form so I had a lot of alternatives when drawing her full size concept (which is the only time I actually looked at vulture wings, can you tell? lol)
