Bayonetta wip02 (Patreon)

Hello!

OK, let me admit something here: I've always been afraid of making a Bayonetta model. Whenever she showed up on the polls, I hoped she wouldn't be the winner. Not because I don't like the character, otherwise I wouldn't even put her in the poll, but because of her confusing outfit. I'm having a really hard time understanding how it works. 

And usually, with game characters, I always find a 3D model at Sketchfab that I can use as a reference guide for all angles, which is pretty handy, but surprisingly there are no Bayonetta's there. So for all those who are more familiar with Bayonetta here, please feel free to advise me on the areas you believe I didn't understand correctly from her outfit. 

Also, her proportions are a but stylized, if I'm not wrong. Smaller head, long legs and arms. I'm trying to replicate a bit of it here, instead of going for just a standard woman's size, but this is risky, as I might end up making a deformed character. If any of you guys notice anything strange with her anatomy and proportions, I'll be glad to have your feedback.

But anyway, here's my progress so far on the winning pose. Today I got the gun and her head done. I wanted to make more stuff, but I feel like I'm spending more time thinking about what's going on in her outfit than actually sculpting things :P 

She'll be released on July 2, 2022.
