back to 2011 !

the creation of lolirock - part 3 : finalizing main characters (original) (raw)

Actually, the global design of the 3 girls came really quickly. I had then to finalize details, accessories and colors.
For example, the star shape in the eyes (the reason why the producers chose me in the first place) was now ugly and make the girls look like aliens (uh oh, they actually are !) or like they are into drugs (uh oh, they’re teenagers ! … just kiddin’)

Reference for IRIS is Taylor Momsen and Blake Lively from GOSSIP GIRL, Pixie Lott a Brit singer… Reference for TALIA is Betty Augier’s wardrobe on Amber Steven West, aka Ashleigh from tv series GREEK. Keri Hilson and Alicia Keys too… Reference for AURORA is all the other cool things I like and I couldn’t put on Iris and/or Talia :-) There’s maybe a bit of Leighton Meester from GOSSIP GIRL and a lot of Cat Valentine (Ariana Grande, what a name coincidence with Auriana!) from tv series VICTORIOUS, before she losts weight and sells millions of discs…

Speaking of VICTORIOUS, it was a great inspiration for the early posings I had to do for the promotion of the series to raise money from broadcasters and co-producers.
This last drawing remained the key visual for a while.
