Gilgamesh is finished for now. I will go back and touch him up when I get a few more characters done. Kev had me do gray scale for Gilgamesh, not full color because of time constraints. I'll post him and also post the artboard for Enkidu
.

On to the next character, Gilgamesh's partner, Enkidu. In the story, Enkidu is a male character created by the gods to keep Gilgamesh in line, but ends up wreaking havoc alongside Gilgamesh. For this character Kev came up with a cool idea, put Enkidu's "soul" into a female body, ala the Major from Ghost in the Shell. Enkidu will have a male "soul" in a female body. Here's the art board idea for the character's design. For the direct reference, overall, I want mid length hair, down to the shoulders at most with blond or red hair. With a body kind of like Alison Haislip's from G4 or the model Susan Coffey. Personality wise, I want "her" to be tough and boisterous with a little bit of cockiness. I don't want her to exude sexuality, I mean its there, she's just not overly flaunting it like most video game chicks. I want her to be more like Zoe from Uncharted and less like Ivy from Soul Calibur. Strong female characters need a personality foremost, not a huge rack. The composite character is Nagi from Bloody Roar 4, kind of obscure, but I think she kind of gets the point across.
