Sylvia

Original concept sketch

Sylvia is part human-part machine and is on a journey to uncover her erased past. Set in a cyberpunk world, Sylvia was brainwashed/programmed to serve the Emperor and do his bidding. After failing to complete a secret mission, Sylvia begins to question her authority, prompting the emperor to wipe her memory and abandon her. All of her cybernetic parts were also removed, leaving her to find new ways to navigate a newly foreign world.

Character Inspiration:

This character stemmed from an idea/character design exercise I wanted to explore: taking a simple electronic device and making a robot from the design and materials. I ended up using my iron, and pulling various elements and textures to generate the arm.

Below are more concept sketches as I fleshed out Sylvia.
