Contest Entry and Poses

I thought I'd participate in the Bayonetta art contest just for kicks. I thought it'd be good practice and it was. The idea behind this contest is to create an original look for the main character of the game, Bayonetta. Basically, she's a witch who fights angels and since her hair is the source of her abilities, I wanted to focus on that for my image.
You can read more on the competition here and view the gallery of submitted work here.


Some practice poses I thought I'd include. First in pen, second in pencil.

Old Works

Some old work from a few months ago that I thought I'd post.

Character Concept (finished)

Made some corrections to the character in my last post. Thanks to all the artists over on the Concept Art forums who took the time to critique my work!

Small update...hope I'm getting better.
