Bioshock: Infinite - Young Liz final concept by shoomlah

Bioshock: Infinite - Young Liz final concept by shoomlah

...Aaaand here's the final 2D design for young Liz in Bioshock: Infinite. A couple of changes were made for the final model- fewer buckles on the skirt, shirt cuffs from an early concept, etc- but the rest of it was pretty spot-on. Really fun to see this running around in-game.

More of my work for Bioshock: Infinite:

Did you designed 'Old Liz' too? Because the corsef seems vore victorian than edwardian.

shoomlah Featured By Owner Feb 25, 2015 Professional Digital Artist

I did not, my designs for Old Liz were much more Margaret Thatcher-esque (since Old Liz is in the 40's-60's)

superpaulina10 Featured By Owner Feb 25, 2015

I mean, the Liz in the second suit. Sorry for the mistake

shoomlah Featured By Owner Feb 25, 2015 Professional Digital Artist

Ah no, I did not! Liz's second outfit is a train wreck from a design standpoint.

superpaulina10 Featured By Owner Feb 26, 2015

Aaaaah, ok

Oomara13 Featured By Owner Jan 20, 2015

Quick question, how stylized was this outfit and the one she wears later on? Like, are they something you would see on the streets in the Edwardian era?

shoomlah Featured By Owner Jan 21, 2015 Professional Digital Artist

The second outfit she wears is compleeeeete bullshit, but this one is stylized reality- the skirt would definitely be longer, but apart from that it's not far off from actual outfits from the period.

I loved her original outfit, and i was a bit disappointed when she changed clothes halfway through the game.

I love this, so, so much. Your designs are beautiful, such attention to period detail.

Fascinum13 Featured By Owner Jun 28, 2013

only in DA can we talk to the real artists. I hope the way some idiot fanboys slammed the game doe snot make Ig scale back on the art.

livorna Featured By Owner Jun 21, 2013

I'm trying to make an Elizabeth costume, any suggestions for what kind of fabric to use for the skirt?

shoomlah Featured By Owner Jun 21, 2013 Professional Digital Artist

I want to say twill, but I also use twill for EVERYTHING. It's meant to look like pretty utilitarian costumes from the time, so something tight-woven and sturdy- with some weight to it- seems like your best bet.

livorna Featured By Owner Jun 22, 2013

thanks, so much! going fabric shopping now!

livorna Featured By Owner Jun 22, 2013

twill acquired! now for the dyeing...

she kinda looks like a diseny character here

patgarci Featured By Owner Apr 24, 2013 Student General Artist

Ken Levine did touch upon having inspirations from different media including diseny....the world of bioshock infinite its like entering a dark twisted version of a disney film.

TheReaper111 Featured By Owner Apr 24, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

yeah lol

McFhurer Featured By Owner Apr 21, 2013

so im the only one who calls her ellie

thats ok i guess

shoomlah Featured By Owner Apr 21, 2013 Professional Digital Artist

A basic google search of "ellie bioshock infinite" proves that you're not- I'm just calling her what she was called in development. Have no investment as to what you do or do not want to call her.
