Description
You can see each of these sketches on individual pictures and more on my TUMBLR or on my FACEBOOK page!
COMMISSION INFO
My comic, "Les Chevaucheurs" (two volumes, french only) is also available. Get some sample pics HERE or order HERE for example !

The picture is huge, don't forget the full view! pencil + SAI
Still playing with the heroine of my comic Phénice with an interesting exercise : trying slightly different body types and see what happens and how it can change the character. If you're stuck up with your character design, I recommend trying that from time to time (plus it's fun).

That armor looks like something straight out of the Monster Hunter series!
...Or maybe I've been playing too much of that game to think of any other relation.

I wasn't thinking about MH on that but thank you, I'm a huge fan of MH's designs, I have the two artbooks, and I take that as a compliment !

I am so, so sorry everyone.

Like the design. Body types could use some more variation though, considering all of the sillouettes are undistinguishable from eachother without "muscle lines"

Thank you ! Yes I could have been farther but I really wanted to stay on variations that could be an evolution of her current physique and who are not totally different from what I drew in my comic ^^

At first glance the variants don't seem too different from each other, but after reading the description I see that isn't the focus anyway. Very good musculature and value. The texture work is also very good, gives it a vivid sketchy quality that I like.

Thank you ! 
Yes they are not that different from each other, I wanted to keep a continuity with the original design and each type is more like "what the default body would become if (she was going on a diet for two moth, eat a little too much, do a lot of exercises) ^^"

J'aime bien la Défault et la Plump.
La Slender est pas mal non plus, par contre j'ai toujours un peu de mal avec les persos féminins trop musclés
La plump la rends bizarrement plus jeune selon moi.
En tout cas ces tests sont bien jolis
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Marrant je trouve que c'est la slender qui fait la plus jeune, mais comme la plump a un visage plus rond c'est peut-être ça ?
Merci !

Perso je préfère le "défault type" mais j'aime aussi beaucoup la version athlétique. Je suis moins fan des version slender ou plump par contre.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Heh, pas de souci, ce ne sont que des test après tout ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep, et ce n'est que mon humble avis ^^
ah et j'aime aussi beaucoup la Phénice allongé dans l'herbe.

I don't really think that the plump one looks actually plump it looks more mascular sort of if you ask me, i don't know, maybe it's because of her belly.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It may be because the line going to the navel really stands out, so it's like abs more than fat.

hm, yeah that's probably it, btw nice character tho!

They all looks good!
You don't think to translate this comic?

Well, this is sold in bookstores and stuff so even if I wanted to I would be forbidden to do so

Such injustice, i really wanted to read it...

When it comes to character design, I knew right away that it was designed by a man since most normal women would never gave their female character such t-shirt as a default set of clothes [unless for the sake of drawing erotic art]
You cannot imagine how uncomfortable is wearing too small shirt where half your boobs stick out from bottom of it, not to mention that they most likely would fall out [boobs bounce as you walk]
No matter how hard nipples you will make on your character they ain't gonna keep that shirt on lol! Not only it looks uncomfortable, it also looks like shirt borrowed from younger baby sister...which make it look even sillier hehe
Also, the ankle armor looks a bit painful, gravitation would pull the heavy armor down onto ankles bruising them and irritating the skin during longer walk, however even this is not as noticeable in uncomfortable as the mentioned top.
On the other hand, I like the hair [braids], stockings and gloves look
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you for your feedback!
About the top, the offender pleads guilty 
About the ankles, note that these are special equipment which aren't really for walking long distances but are helping "riding" mechanical mounts more efficiently, as the rider and the machine are connected through legs and feet ^^.

I'd say that I like them all equally, save for the plump type. I dunno why. It just doesn't look as soft and gentle as the others, despite that supposedly being the case. That or I don't have a clue what I'm on about. XP

Oh, that's...unfortunate ^^

Though I especially like the tomboyish look of the slender body type.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Well, not saying I didn't like it at all. I still like it, just not as much as the other looks.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha don't worry, I was just saying that the one that was supposed to be softer and gentlier was the least soft and gentle, so that's kind of a fail
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, well. From failure comes success.

Super hot body types. Too bad we cant see her in those poses naked... X_X
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha indeed that would be over the limits 
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Any woman who can kick ass and looks hot like that is attractive most of all for being a strong woman who's a fighter. That's the most sexy trait in a woman to me!

Le type athlétique est sûrement le plus réaliste, compte tenu de l'activité de la demoiselle, et puis il lui va plutôt bien en fait (disons que les muscles ne sont pas trop proéminents, donc ne lui font pas perdre toute sa féminité... par contre, ça la rend plus adulte).
Le type "plumber" manque un peu de bras mais elle est sympa comme ça. J'aime bien.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Le type athlétique est pas mal mais c'est vrai que c'est celui qui requiert le dosage le plus précis, si c'est trop marqué c'est moyen mignon dirons-nous. Le type plump est sympa à dessiner, donc un croisement entre les deux pourrait être sympa ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah oué, non, faut éviter le type bodybuildé avec des gros muscles partout, les veines qui ressort et les tablettes de choco. C'est pas sexy du tout sur une fille.
Mais oué, un mélange des deux, ça doit être sympa.

Maybe a mid-term between plump and athletic. Well, I drew the three volumes of my comic with the sefault one so... I guess the default wins in the end, but I may change few things if I have the chance to have a 4th volume.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I see. Well, they all certainly have their own strong points ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
moi je dirais que le plump type aurait besoin d'un peu plus de forme féminine, mais maintenant ce n'Est que mon avis ^^
Sinon, très beau dessin comme d'habitude
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Disons qu'il fallait que ça reste proche du modèle de base, il faut que ça reste dans la continuité de ce que j'ai déjà dessiné pour ma BD ^^.

Nice work! I like them all, but the plump type design seems like it would be the most fun to draw. I also like the scar and battle damage details, it shows she is a hardened warrior.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you ! Yeah the plump one is very fun to draw, although the athletic one is nice too although I'm not that good in muscles anatomy. Maybe I could try something between these two. Yup, she has scars, those things happen when you wear a skimpy armor haha ^^.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
These are awesome!
(Just my opinion, but the "athletic type is the best
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks ! The athletic one is surprisingly popular ^^.
