Grey Riding Hood

My planing process

This is a remake of red ridding hood. Winona and her rare fennec fox companion Koda was visiting her grandmother and have to fight against the Gevaudan, a legendary beast.

I started with some sketches with different shape language. Square, triangle and circle. 

I did a turnarounds and expressions for the selected Winona and Koda designs.

I rendered greyscale for my designs. The goal is to make it as 3D looking as possible. Once I have my grey scale rendering, I try some color combinations using overlay mode on a new layer on top of the grey scale layer. 

For Winona, she was supposed to have red coat since she's red riding hood. But Grey would fit the design more so I decided to change the title from Red Riding Hood to Grey Riding Hood.

After I chose the color combinations that I like, I proceed to render it to final.
