Soulcalibur V
One of the bosses in the Touhou series of games, Cirno debuted in Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, the sixth entry in the series. The ice fairy Cirno is strong amongst her kind, but very weak in relation to the player characters and most of the other cast. She is incredibly childish and is considered by many as an idiot.
The sticker and pattern systems were of great use to me as I set out to create each character of Touhou fame. One of the first techniques I learned was to place stickers over patterns, revealing only what was needed: Cirno's skirt has an interesting crown design at the bottom, so to create this effect I put a blue and white watermelon pattern on it and covered up the top 2/3 with blue stickers. Unfortunately, I could only get two of the three sets of ice crystals on her back as the hair ribbon took up the final slot. Since Cirno is an ice fairy, I gave her Elysium's moveset simply because the Critical Edge is a perfect match. Also, Elysium's weapons have an icy look, which works too. You'd have to be the strongest to win as Cirno.
