This particular character, named Trixis, came from the images that fluttered through my head while listening to Duran Duran and Wham! Particularly "Is There Something I Should Know?" by Duran Duran. Its one of my favorites. Its pure British 80's pop nonsense and I LOVE IT.
I really tried to incorporate more of a sense of the style of the period, more of a caricature of the style, rather than base it purely on existing fashion pieces. I tried to embody the feeling of the music and the imagery it inspires.
Brings back memories. Also look up the film "Liquid Sky" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085852/
ReplyDeleteYou are onto something here. Add another character and typography to give it more of a story. I am going to enjoy seeing where you head with this work. :O)
