Designing a Nativ - Character Design: Kya Dark Lineage
This was a character design exercise in which I tried to create a character that fit the setting and species of the Nativ race of the playstation 2 game: Kya Dark Lineage. There were various iterations that were experimented, with a notable focus on silhouettes.
It's also worth noting that we then had to take said character and make them as a 3D model, along with some background props to create an "example" scenario.
