Character Design Week 2

My character should portray all of the traits as previously suggested(in week 1). The Sirens use sexuality to lure unsuspecting victims to her, ready for her to eat. She should be fully seductive so that the male characters would fall for her and not want to leave until it is too late.

Character Design Week 1

Within the week 1 I have looked at a range of dominant women, both heroes and villain, throughout history, mythology, T.V. and film. Through all of these scenarios these women are depicted and as strong yet sexy and seductive females. The villainous females tend to use there sexuality to get what they want. Themes throughout these characters contain lust, power, sexuality and brains.
