Date Everything Designs | Round 1, Match 17 β Volt vs. River
Volt
Personification of: Electricity
"Eddie and Volt own and operate The Breaker Box, a popular club in its own little closet. The drinks are strong, the patrons seem delighted, and the talent show is unquestionably entertaining. Is there a faint whiff of tension in the air, or is that just their newest seasonal beverage? Better to just sit back and enjoy the show."
His hair seems to be made entirely of electricity, with zig-zags for sideburns
His eyebrows have lightning bolt imagery at the ends
His jacket's colour matches the colour of the breaker box in the house, and its shoulders and lapels have power strips connected by cords, with more power sockets on his sleeves
The lining of the jacket resembles instructions and warnings often found on breaker boxes, with a patch on one shoulder that looks like a caution sign
His vest resembles a fuse box with switches, continuing down to the sides of his dress pants
The golden accents of his shoes resemble power switches
His bracelet cuffs resemble copper wiring
vs. River
Personification of: Water
"River as we see her in her most fluid state - which is also the most slippery. Water always takes up the form of what it happens to be in, which means that she fits herself into whatever space others put her in. While she is sweet, maybe all this self-effacement isn't great for her self-esteemβ¦"
Her appearance is based entirely on water, including her skin, hair, and dress, which includes foam/wave layering and a necklace resembling splashes
Her necklace is made of water droplets
The better design is...
