Sheren Wu 吴雪莲 - character design
presentation with rendered portrait and top3 outfit picks.
different outfits designed with different things in mind. casual/formal, fashionable/unique, protecting her eyes and skin in some cases.
Tried different faces for exploration of her character, rendered out the top 2 picks
first sketches with different outfits.
This would be her formal daily wear. The shades protect her sensitive eyes from the light.
Fashion wear for shoots or going out. Inside/at night or when wearing tinted contacts she doesn't need shades.
Daily casual wear. This would be too 'open' for a bright sunny day because of her sensitive skin, so probably a late afternoon outfit.

Sheren Wu 吴雪莲
Villain entry for the M.Night Shyamalan Hero vs Villains 'Glass' contest on deviantart that ended april 8th.
She had damaged her eyes in early life due to overexposure to sunlight but in her recovery developed enhanced eyesight, especially in low-light environments. Full story on DA: https://www.deviantart.com/jura-chan/art/Sheren-Wu-Villain-7923
My idea was to make a character unique in her own way, but ‘contemporary’ enough to fit the world of ‘Glass’. Her power is not over-the-top but rather subtle and she makes use of her many other advantages in her quest. A tattoo on her wrist ' 夜长梦多。 ' meaning ' Lots of dreams can occur over a long night' depicts her favourite saying in which she remembers the moment she developed her skills and her life began to change.
Making a fashion model character allowed me to have a lot of fun with outfits (I designed many more!) and my personal challenge was to make an interesting contemporary character that would fit a movie.
