Pre-production: Jean

Jean the accidental sidekick. These are some rough designs for her lastest incarnation. I went from a cartoony look to a more mature look. she's a younger character that bubbly and you know the usual "happy girl" type.

I wanted to make her sexy but still tactical and functional with something a bit modern tactical almost gothish but not quite.

One thing I wanted to work out were her pants and give her kneepads in her pants and make them buckled on the bottom. They needed to look durible with still some flexiblity.

her top I wanted something sexy to show her midrift with no sleeves. It should look almost like a uniform but comfortible. I'm keeping the jacket design it's like a light pleather.

I always forget to draw her tail. Sometime I think she should go without it, but then she wouldn't be much of a fox then.
