Great job on the face! I would say one thing that needs work is the clothing. If you want some cool victorian era inspired clothes I would look up the clothing sets from the game bloodborne. Some of the clothes look slightly different depending on if you play a male or female character so make sure to specify. Reference for clothes is key though so I would look up some victorian era clothes or check out some victorian era movies. Also I don't know how obvious you want to make it that she is a witch but it could be cool to see how the dark magic is starting to corrupt her appearance. Hope this helps a little, great work so far!

You seem to be on a good start with this! But I will advice you to take some more time to dig deeper with the concept, because as of right now, the design looks a little early to be finished. Is there any particular reference or characters which you can base your design to?

Hi Lyena, very nicely done. I think you have a fun idea here, but you could definitely push it farther! In regards to designing for a specific era, It's always a good idea to spend a good deal of time researching the costumes, ornamentation, and other visual elements, which it does look like you've done a bit of. However, I think your design could benefit from a few things, the first being iteration! If you have an idea for a character It is always a good idea to spend time really exploring your options, different takes on what that character could be. Lots of sketches on what this character could look like, before you get to a finished painting! And this is not just in regards to costume, but even things like attitude and body language. Spend some time thinking about this things and pushing the concept of your character. A lot of good designers will ask themselves questions about their character and explore these possibilities in writing. For example, let's brainstorm some possibilities giving ourselves the prompt 'Evil Victorian Witch'. How evil is this witch? And what kind of evil? Is she sadistic? Wicked? Seductive? Does she revel in being evil or is she just ruthless? Is she a sorceress or could she be possessed by a demon? What drives her intentions, her evil actions? Does she want something? Maybe she wants revenge on another person, or to steal political power! Past her intentions, what kind of witch might she be and what does she look like? Your artwork shows her dressed nicely and having face tattoos, which I imagine is quite unusual in Victorian England! Does this cause problems for her in public life?(something to think about!) But maybe those tattoos are temporary, written in the blood of a sacrifice before our witch commits some heinous ritual! Or perhaps we could make her a hag who hides away in the woods, or under a castle. Or is she a member of polite society who hides her malicious intent behind a mask of innocence? Maybe she uses sorcery to change her appearance? Might she have a wardrobe change throughout her character arc in whatever story this is? Perhaps she's a jealous serving girl who ends up a dark queen like Maleficent! Spending time thinking out possibilities in this way is incredibly fun, helpful and will pretty much always lead you to a more interesting and creative design than you might have otherwise had.
