sketch character
I need the visual for her first





thumbnails/sketches for layout
In the thumbnail sketches, my thought is to let the viewer focus on
1.  Who is she?
2. I want to emphasize she's not a human, but a monster.
3. Details to show her function: her hands/feet dropping the blood. Her dress wearing an apron to prevent painting into her dress. Her hat as a picture frame.
4. The world around her.
