My submission for the Sunny Side Down Character Contest: Bauble, B4 Space Merchant. I would have added additional poses; however, I realized that the deadline was a LOT sooner than expected. Included are her robot assistants, Bo (drone) and Brix (steed).
A number of inspirations helped to create this Bauble. For one, my Stellaris creation, the Gno'ziel Corporation, led to the idea of a space-fairing hyena. Likewise, in a number of TTRPG, I find myself drawn towards gnoll characters, and I've had a few characters like Bauble. Bauble's main color scheme is inspired by the Nickelodeon Color palette.
Bauble's robotic legs (Brix) were partially inspired by characters like Dr. Arliss Loveless or Marvel's Mojo. I also used a similar set of robo-legs for a Paranoia XP character. Brix's color scheme was inspired by the aero frutiger color pallette.
Also colored in that palette was Bauble's left glove, which was inspired by the Nintendo Power Glove. Gussied up of course.
Finally, the drone (Bo) was inspired by my spouse's various doll-related characters. Bo was given a Vaporwave color palette.
Character Info:
Baubel: A merchant of the B4 Corporation who accidentally found herself sucked into the Sunny Side Down Diner. She has plenty of items to barter with, and always hopes to make a sale. She lost her legs to Space Pirates.
Bo, her robot assistant, is based on the main character of her favorite romance series.
Brix, her robot stead, is sentient, but not sapient. It has the mind of a well-trained dog.
