Taya’s Evil Makeover

So uh, Taya gets more than a hairstyle change now, she’s got a full makeover.

I wanted to design her more like a villain, with more angular and meaner features. I think it makes her look more unique and nonstandard. I wanted to get that dark academia vibe, of a shady scholar who knows more than she lets on. The way I’m approaching building my characters so far is I build them like a villain. As in I introduce them flaws first and don’t worry about if they’re likable or not. I hope you can see this with Taya’s design.
