This is just a sliver of a Risky’s Revenge version of Plink I worked on back in 2020, though I never really got around to finishing the rest of her design due to a creative block.
For this design I wanted to go for a more cheesy, ‘fortune teller’ look for her while retaining some elements similar to that of her original Seven Sirens design, such as the eyeball motif (Or what looks like eyeballs). (Please ignore the incorrect placement of her veil 😅)
I was thinking of maybe incorporating the Nazar ‘evil eye’ 🧿 as well, but I wasn’t sure how to go about it.
For her hair, I decided to go with a more shorter hairstyle that would read better with her long, translucent cloak. And in terms of body type, I wanted her to be petite, yet standing a bit more taller than the original.
Though I hoped to create more Shantae GBA/Risky’s Revenge styled versions of the other Half Genies at the time, I just couldn’t wrap my brain around how I should vary their designs.
If I have time, I’ll make it my mission to work on it and the other concepts later this year.
