Might Orbots G - Bo

And there we go! The last of the Orbot redesigns is finished! Bo was surprisingly hard to get right, despite the structural similarity to Boo. I can't tell you how many poses I tried, till finally I managed to settle on this one. As a contrast to her sister, Bo is more aggressive, flamboyant and mischevous. I wanted to capture that a little more literally in her redesign, so while Boo is patterned a little after a rabbit, Bo is patterned after a cat. Static poses weren't working, so I had to find more of a movement shot. The shading got to be a little more dramatic than I originally intended, so I broke from the pattern of the other Orbot pieces and used a bit of a gradient as the background, to simulate the harsh light that would cause those shadows.

Unfortunately, Mighty Orbots isn't exactly the next one; I want to do the redesign of Rob, Ohno and the Beam Car next, but that should just be a single piece. Or who knows, I could just decide to do the big guy after all.
