One Deadly Syn
Monday, April 9th, 2007 by joelSo here is my concept sketch for Synthia. I really never got her face right in this particular sketch. Of course, the same can be said about much of the comic with her in it.
The hand you see was mostly so that I could design her tattoo. It was a later decision of mine to cover her body under her shirt with the same design over and over. There is a reason for this, and it will be revealed in time.
Synthia is kind of a complicated person. Superficially she and Estella seem practically to be opposites. Underneath her outward complexity, Synthia has some pretty basic needs and motivations. Estella, on the other hand, seems pretty simple outwardly, yet underneath she hides some pretty scary stuff.
I suppose their relationship in some ways is a pretty stereotypical dichotomy, but I hope I’ve made it unique enough to be interesting.
