Edit: I suck at photoshop/editing, so please pardon Viktor’s pixelated head. It’s not meant to be seen this magnified.

Today’s the last day of intermission week. Tomorrow we start with Chapter 2, so make sure to come back bright and early Monday morning (it’ll be worth it, I promise).

Here’s my initial prompt to the artists about Viktor:

Viktor – The tall, blonde Russian joined Tenzin in his vigilante quest for justice a few years before they joined up with Minerva. While terrible to behold in battle, Viktor has a gentle heart and enjoys a good laugh. He serves as a lieutenant in Tenzin’s squad, the Keleres.

Age: 35 years

Height: 1.95 meters

Weight: 111 kg

Ethnicity: Russian

Skin Color: White

Hair color: Blonde

Eye Color: Blue

And this is what they produced:

By this point, we had realized that people and faces weren’t necessarily Matias’ forte (at least not the way we wanted them), so he was focusing more on designs for armor, robots, transports, etc. In fact, in this one drawing of Viktor he made, we liked the armor so much that it heavily influenced the armor the Keleres wear (see page 11). It’s also interesting that the Viktor we end up with (see page 4) looks quite different from Seba’s initial drawings. That’s due to Nick and I giving Seba feedback about the feel we wanted for Viktor. Strong but gentle and wise at the same time. Hopefully it worked.

Enjoy!
