Left: I'm not going to use this character design of Lucy. The gothic outfit is too complex and she stands out too much. She needs to be 'plain' and this outfit draws too much attention to her. she is also too curvy, in fact her entire profile is very far from what i actually want her to look like.
Right: This character is more like what I want her to look like. She is simple and straight, with her characteristic gothic boots. They are oversized purposefully to make her look diminutive and innocent. Her clothing is also much simpler. I needed to keep in mind her actual role in the story. She is a simple questionary, an innocent inquiry is all she needs to provide, so she need not be high maintenance and I don't want the attention to be drawn away from Stitches.
