Step 1 – Sketch
I started with a dynamic sketch to capture the pose and balance between the mechanical and angelic elements. The goal was to give her both grace and power, emphasizing the staff and the wings as focal points.
Step 2 – Line Art
The clean line art focused on defining the armor’s symmetry and the organic flow of the wings. This stage helped refine her facial expression — calm, yet commanding.
Step 3 – Rendering
I added colors, lighting, and metallic reflections to bring the design to life. The rendering stage was all about balancing warm tones from the wings and the cool reflections of the mech armor. Subtle glow effects and highlights on the staff completed the atmosphere.
This piece was a great opportunity to explore the fusion between angelic fantasy and sci-fi mecha aesthetics.
