Work in Progress

June 14, 2013 9:17:45 PM

Lol...as a exercise to myself to finish what I start, not to mention just putting something up, here is a current work in progress. I've already started the colouring process, but that aint going too well *sigh*

My current problem is that in the ref photo, she's holding a sword pointing to the back. However, in the lineart it's a lightsaber that's apparently giving her haircut as well. Will still need to resolve that ><

Crits always welcome

I've been trying to think of a critique but honestly you've matched the image so well, it's difficult to find one. That line art is pretty remarkable.

And as far as coloring, what are you going for? Cause I am assuming this is Photoshop?

Lol, if you saw one of my actual drawings you would prolly have plenty to say XD It tends to be so skewed it becomes abstract art ^^

I've been struggling with the colouring quite a bit. I've been working from photos to get the colours correct, but I didn't plan my lighting to well. I also don't have a painting style established, so there is no consistency happening in terms of the colouring execution.

I was thinking of two light sources, one being the lightsaber, and the other coming from the right towards the back as well. Might scrap the current colours and restart.
