Gothic character design
Gothic style always gives people a feeling of darkness and depression, and the overall color is mainly black. I combined the classic element of Halloween-the vampire, and let her wear Gothic costumes and black makeup to strengthen her eyes, give her a gloomy impression, and incorporate modern elements.
illustration
This picture creates an atmosphere of a vampire high above by looking up, squinting to the front, showing hostility from the expression and body, lighting from below, can achieve the effect of horror. The characters appear to float, increasing the feeling of non-human beings. Adding some perspective and changing the center of gravity makes it less rigid. To highlight the brightness of light, it is necessary to increase the contrast with darkness.
