Promotional Artwork for X-Key.
In this set of images I wanted to do a little more than just show off X-Key's outfits, I wanted to demonstrate how her gear effects her outward persona. In the images without her jacket and helmet we see her relaxed and carefree. While when we see her with her scarf and jacket we see her ready to explore and take on challenges. With her helmet and rifle we see her equipped for battle with a focused look in her eyes. Expressing both the character's sense of style and personality through their appearance, as well as how these aspects align and conflict is tricky.
X-Key herself is often more calm and relaxed than the vibrant colors she wears would lead you to believe. I even try to capture some element of compassion in her eyes even as I'm trying to establish toughness.

Ok I was trying to upload a gif of some vfx I applied to this image Jonathan drew of X-Key in her stealth camo but the gif seems to show up as a still image so until I figure this out I’ll just post the still image.
Edit: Ok it looks like I got it going so hopefuly you can see.
