work in progress; a day in the sun

over two hundred years ago, the daylily spirits were abandoned by the keeper of their botanical garden. doomed to be trapped in the overgrown garden, save for one day a year each (their "blooming day" - different for each spirit), the daylilies cope in different ways. some deny that they will soon be shaded out - some distraction themselves with the psychoactive plant "sweet holloe" - others are anxious and eager to do something to improve their conditions. kudzu on the edge of the garden creeps closer.

daylilies and their odd names the spirits are based off of. as soon as i heard of the names people give daylily cultivars, I knew it needed to do something with it.

these are the body bases I made to do character iteration over ! I wanted to display a wide array of body types, for contrast and for inclusivity .

the tentative color pallates for each character. i wanted to keep it bright and floral, with heavy inspiration from each daylily ! the first version of the pallate wasn't as bright and the colors didn't work together well. 

group dynamics for character interaction reference!

sweet holloe smoking accessories, as a few of the spirits partake, and i plan on designing them paraphernalia.
