[For the hiatus, I’m going to be posting a bunch of the development art I made for the series. It’ll be posted in the order it was made, leading up to the week the comic resumes]
{Original Commentary} Looking back at my first attempt to draw Trinity, I didn’t really feel satisfied with her design. I know I wanted a very tall and very thin figure for her to sort of match the “idea” of her character (which is what the world thinks of being the perfect figure).
I eventually settled on like a very tall triangle-like figure for her body and legs, which I’m satisfied with. I like her way more with really long legs. She’s tall as heck!
I also knew almost instantly what outfit I wanted for her, so I didn’t end up using more than a page to figure it out. 😆 It’s kind of like a belly-dancer outfit, I’ve realized (mainly an excuse for me to show of her cute white tummy fur). But of course, she’s also a respected researcher, so she’s got her white lab-coat.
(It’s a weird solarpunk future and she’s a genetics researcher don’t question it)
{New Commentary} Now that’s more like the Trinity I remember! It wouldn’t be until we get into the comic proper that she gets her muzzle, though.
One of the earlier mistakes I made when designing characters was not having a strong grasp on the colors they would have (given that the designs are all black and white). If memory serves, I still didn’t know what color her fur would be at this point.
Going into the comic, you’ll notice that I went back and forth minor details about her; mainly her lab coat and some parts of her fur. Knowing myself, I’ll still be changing those right up until the end.
