Eileen "Einlee" Chang is a character designer for RWBY. She was the first artist to work on the series. Having been a fan of her artwork for many years, Monty Oum contacted her directly to work with him when production started.[1]
She worked closely with Monty on early designs for the main characters. Monty would send her his rough concept sketches, which she would then develop into fully-fleshed designs. Einlee did the original designs for many of the main characters, including all of the members of Team RWBY and Team JNPR, as well as many others.[2] She also worked on the Volume 4 timeskip designs.[3]
Her artwork is featured prominently on the official RWBY banner. She also hosted the first RWBY Art Panel at RTX 2013 alongside Monty, Patrick Rodriguez and Kristina Nguyen.
