I’m currently working on revamping the designs for all the characters in Armada’s party. I’ll be uploading my WIPs through my news section because I only want to submit the complete illustrations to the Art Portal. This line of pieces is going to take a while before everything is done...
Sketched out Lucius's revamped design (i.e. I finished Doom TDA). Huge change from his original, Clint Eastwood-esque look, I wanted him to look much scrappier and more coltish. This was also an opportunity to reiterate on the Vaulidons' appearance in general, leaning even heavier into the humanoid velociraptor / horny toad hybrid look with prominent feathers, long necks, and wide, flat heads.
I also wanted the clothing to reflect their mesothermic cardiovascular system and their habitat, so I based it on layered fabrics. That way, the Vaulidonic wearer can quickly put on and take off layers of warmth depending on the ambient temperature.
