first sketches of aster. i planned her design ahead of time & decided to draw some of them to get a feel for it, since i was going to make her in elden ring with a specific build in mind. one motivator behind her design was that i wanted to make a character with a big, craggy, messy head of hair, like with a bunch of layers & wispy bits poking out -- so i wanted to make someone who was wild enough to pull off that kind of look. her hair isn't quite messy enough here, but i'll get better at it with time.
