Character Masako stylized 2D character illustration study

The two illustration frames cover the hero-front beauty pose with full silhouette read and a paint study tuned to surface costume detail, palette response, and lighting choices.

Pipeline ran reference board, silhouette pass, color key, paint-over, and final detail finishing under internal art-direction review at each gate. Trim and accent placement were tuned to support multi-frame use so the character reads in both hero pose framing and detail callout contexts without re-painting.

The character work plugs into broader studio video game advertising deliverables when the same cast carries into store creative, paid social cuts, and narrative scene staging.
