Élodie Yung as Elektra Natchios on DAREDEVIL

Finally revisited the Elektra redesigns I made like 2 years ago.  As I said in that previous post, I asked @mattelektras for help with Elektra’s character and her design over the years in particular; she gave me so much information and insight so thank you, again, Jessie!  I remembered her headcanon where Elektra is Greek-Japanese (given how much her creators were inspired by/appropriated Japanese culture when developing her lore/arc) and I love this idea.

Taking this headcanon into account, I decided to incorporate motifs and silhouettes from both traditional Japanese and Greek culture (as seen below):

These are just two of many other potential design ideas that can be done and I hope to get more drawn up.  The one thing I regret is not giving the centre design her trademark cap because I can see that’s a pretty common thing to wear among Greek women so I’ll try and make a full body sketch with that cap but overall I’m pretty happy with that design idea the most with either the cap or the scarf wrap I gave her and I hope you are, too!

EDIT: The image quality is terrible because Photoshop wouldn’t let me save the file as a JPEG so I had to screenshot it.

LOIS: You’ve been a journalist for how long and you dare to speak like that? Such a farm boy.

Welcome to our third confession reveal!    All the confessions can be found underneath the cut and the creators they’re about are tagged to make sure they can find out about your confessions! Please feel free to use the comment function to talk and discuss too, if you want!    Note: Sometimes tumblr doesn’t let me @ users properly, so I tag them additionally but have been playing with the idea of sending a message with the link to the post. Do you think I should, just to make sure they see it? Thanks to everyone for participating this week! If you want to let others know about this blog, feel free to reblog this post.
