Jenny Gibbons illustrates character portraits for visual novels. She designs the character’s features, hairstyle, and costume based on the character’s personality to subtly evoke an overall mood or mannerism. Next, she builds a variety of expressions and stances for the character that will flow naturally together and can be used in any order.

She uses Adobe Photoshop CS6 to create lush backgrounds, detailed character portraits, and specific scenes.
