The Evolution of Wren

[kiyakotari]

Many of my characters, though not all, have been with me since before I hit my teen years. A couple days ago, one of my friends gave me a picture she had drawn of the character that became Wren - who at the time was called "Q" - and it reminded me of all the little things that seemed so important to her character design at one point or another, but that slowly changed as her character evolved. Of course, that made me want to document these changes somehow, so I drew a picture at work last night. (As always, standard "I am not an artist" disclaimer applies.)

Thus, I give you the evolution of Wren.

This is a really neat concept, and it's especially cool to see just how drastic the changes have been in Wren's case. :3 She's become such an ultimate badass.

You convey so much here without words.

Damn, when a girl stops trying to look sexy-- she hits that nail right on the head.

hum, do I see a strong street fighter influence in the beginning of Wren's conception?

Cool! And I don't think it's dorky at all to draw and/or color one's own character illustrations. It's really neat to see how the outfit changed over time. Not to mention, she gets grimmer across the page.

*also has characters who have been around that long*
