I noticed a little trend going on in the community and wanted to contribute. Started traditionally then moved over to photoshop to finish up the skin. Chose a very awkward position to draw, please don't judge my bad posture (⁀ᗢ⁀).
Oooh love this. The loose hair and the shirt, just a lovely vibe, playful kinda. When you say traditional- what medium(s) are you using?
Thanks for sharing!
Glad you liked it! I used a bunch of things:
Pencil for the base drawing, highly pigmented color inks, some water soluble and some water proof markers (fine tip, brush tip) a .02 fineliner and some color pencils.
I digitally painted over the skin 'cause the markers I was using for it are very fine tip, which works great on small sketches but started looking too noisy on this format, so I wasn't happy with it, but it turned out alright.
Slightly off topic but you have an awesome Sigourney Weaver vibe to you 😀
That's like the raddest compliment, I'll ride that high for a while. :P thx!
This is fantastic! Bravo!
I love both the hair and the eyes so much!
