A Different Type of Collector

As I mentioned in the previous post, it's time for me to return to portrait making! Today I've been working on the doll/plushie collector girl living in Evergrind City, as seen here inside her home:

And here's her old portrait used within the game:

It was one of the last ones I did in the old style, where I'd gotten at least some experience with portrait making, but it still looks nothing like the newer portraits. So, it had to be remade!

Below is the progress on the new portrait, it's all really straight forward and pretty much the same strategy that I use whenever I make a new thing. Sketching around, settling for line art, cleaning it up, color blocking, adding shadows & light, refining edges... :)

...Aaand here's the result, in its in-game sprite version:

I tried to make her look a little bit younger this time, since I feel that would make sense given her interest in plushies and the like. Also, because I haven't been making portraits for a few months or so now, I was a bit worried that it'd be really hard and take a long while to finish this portrait, but thankfully it wasn't that bad! So, on to the next one :)
