Leyre Elola - Rookie Awards 2022

Criminal band set on a futurist Tokyo. They love to be the center of attention even if they are wanted criminals.

My objective was to practice body shapes and different kind of characters, each one with a custom weapon designed having in mind their abilities and posibilities.

Gun practice based on the same world.

Jasper, a silent and agile jester with a fencing sword.
As I wrote in my notes, I wanted them not to be "just a jester", so I added a royal vibe and subtle spider references. My objective was to make shapes that reference a spider, besides of the web details all over their clothes.

Hidden among the alleys of the capital, there is an old antique store that offers mysterious gadgets to those who manage to find its door.

Cutaway practice I really enjoyed doing. I love putting attention into little details, and this was the best opportunity to do so. 

Beautiful Flowers and How to Grow Them is a personal project I have been working on my free time. The title is from a 20th century book guide on how to grow and look after flowers. 

There are two civilizations on an island, the one which resides at the forest and the one which resides at the island coast. Each of them has their own kingdom. 
When the forest Queen finds out about the princesses love, she gets enraged and her daughter, Dahlia, escapes to rescue Margarita, the princess of the coast civilization.

I decided that the best fit for this project was to have an Art Nouveau based architecture and aesthetic in general, as its characters are based on flowers and their meanings.

Thanks for passing by and checking out my work!
