I've had Lilac as an OC for a while now, I just don't draw her that often. I'm still coming up with a more permanent overall design for her, which is reflected here. I want her to have a bit of a bright, bubbly aesthetic, with inspiration from pastel goth, e-girl, and soft grunge aesthetics. Whenever I design a character, I naturally lean into incorporating some edgy techwear detail, but I didn't want to go too overboard with Lilac, as I wanted her to have some softness to her. Hence, the flower pattern hoodie, the bright hair. I also have a preference for, and a tendency to incorporate, a lot of black and dark colors, so I had to actively steer away from that for her.

Does anyone have any input, or advice on what else I can do for this character design? What would her design benefit from adding, or losing? Let me know in the comments. c:

Lovely work! When it comes to your OC's, do you ever imagine a basic narrative or setting for them or are they just people you like to imagine are in the real world?

Wow, she's really beautiful and the background is so nice (I love the flowers) ! 🤗😍

Thank you! I usually have a basic narrative in mind, especially since I’ve had most of my OCs for years now, such that I’ve had a lot of time to refine narratives and designs. For newer OCs, I’ll have a rough idea, which evolves alongside the character’s visual design.

You're very welcome ! 😁

Loving the design as is, so I can't really suggest much. I will say that she needs to leave those thick, heavy socks alone and stick with those torn mesh stockings though! 🤤 I find those to be a wonderfully accentuating part of her look! 🤤

The torn mesh stockings were a fun little option, they aren't going anywhere. ;D
