I drew 10 poses based around Macaria using her staff.

I chose 3 of them to be evolved into the action poses.

I also drew the expressions.

I sketched and finished the prop designs

I finished the alternate outfit. It is meant to be a regal dress to be worn during fancy occasions. It's very much inspired by traditional Greek clothing and the outfits of the characters that I studied.

I also finished the outfit sheet for the main outfit.

Week 7

Try different outfits as if the character was in other universes. The poses and expression are fine.

REFLECTION

This task let me explore my character further through her outfits, expressions and poses. If there was something I would improve, it would be to explore more ideas for the alternate outfits as I felt that there are other ideas that could have been drawn.
