Not sure if this is your first open critique deviation, but seeing that I adore your art style and that you gave this character theme a 'Gaia' attribute, I figured I'd take a break and nitpick at these layouts.

I love the colors for the clothing. The leaf shawl and the tree bark skirt makes for a great concept for a character who's has attributes to mother nature's powers. If these three stages represent the power level of the character, each stage shows well on how adept the Gaia player is of his weapons and abilities. The only article that throws me off is the last level's boots. It gives off more of a 'tropical island' feel rather than the jungle theme. Unsure if the world she is in represents mix of the two but the 'palm tree' boots look like it belongs to a different set. The first two boot sets are a more subtle approach to the ensemble.

The drawing technique is great, although the fact I am so used to your more detailed works, the leaf stems and tree bark wear marks could use a little thicker lines to make it look a little less plastic shine but other than that, the other accessories look amazing. I like the fungal spores on the bottom of the skirt. It gives the character even more of a adept characteristic. Although there are consistent gaps in the detailing. I get the impression that you put more time in creating and designing the weapons than the rest of the clothing sets.
Something else i noticed was the cape add-on in the back. Is it supposed to be more leafs or a mixture of miscellaneous textures? The final stage cape looks more square cut compared to the leafy capes on the other ones.

Overall, I can really imagine these clothing in a customization menu. I have a tendacy of putting the green color a little darker to bring out the lines but that is a personal envision i put into my characters.
I would love to see more concepts in this world. It draws in my inspiration to draw more green designs.

Searching Concept artists for GameArtHey,
my name ist Frock, and I'm developing a game in the style of Overwatch/league of legends.
I'm searching a Person, that could make me concept art for characters and Leveldesign. I need easy drawings for making 3d Models and Splasharts like in League of legends for implementing in the game.
I hope that it's not bad that i dont have money at the moment for this, but as soon as the game gets online, you get credit as all the others, that helped with the game.
You can take those sketches in your Portfolio too. If you're interested please write me!
I'm at the start of the project right now, so i dont have things to show but i can write you how i want the game to be. If you have improvements or ideas, let me know
I am looking forward to hearing from you!
Best
Devin

I want to play a game starring this character and her insectoid arm gun/stabbing thing. Very much please. The little luminescent bulbs at the ends of her cloak-leaves are a great touch, on the last one.

Крутяк! Мираж-коммандо в деле. Цвет при работе, конечно, проблема, но здесь как-будто всё в порядке...

How for you start a character design?  Do you just sketch a base and copy it keeping what you like from the last one then adding to it or do you just redraw them eacb carrying over what you like?  I want to do character design but I have no idea where to start.

I usually make few raw sketches (I try to make it different, different proportions, poses, details etc), than look on them and combine better parts of this sketches to one. 
>sketch a base and copy it keeping what you like from the last one then adding to it
Yes, I do. because its huge economy of time. 
>but I have no idea where to start. 
Try to start from what You want to say with your character. What's character is it? Is he/she brave or shy, violent or victim, what a background behind a character, etc. When you draw, You tellyng a story, and pose, color, proportions, details, rhytms is a sentences and words of your story. For a сharacter design I would recommend watch A LOT works of skilled pro-artists and analyse, what they do and what they want to say with it. 
And of course, You should learn basics: Line, tones, values, colors, composition, anatomy, facial expressions. Even if you skilled enough, it's never enough to train this things.

Wow, I'm copying all this down for future reference.  Thank you so much for replying in such detail, this gives me a path now where to start, and it's just doing it from there.  I wanted to do some character design sketches of Sunset Shimmer for Harmony Rift, and that seemed like a far off goal, but with this framework I think I'm gonna give it a go this weekend!  

I love the method for quotations you did too by the way. Very useful.  

Keep the sweet are comin'!
