elven druid - wip

new image i just scanned. i'll probably end up erasing the background thingie, its just not even enough and im not sure i can salvage it. maybe i'll redo it digitally. i like how it looks, just not the botched job i did inking it. also need to darken the outline of the hair a bit.
will probaby color this tonight or tomorrow... also, if you'd like to color it yourself, PM me and i'll email you a larger version of it.

She is cute! If i could learn how to drive PSP I would love to colour these things in, they look so fun. Guess I need to read the help files more....

You always do such petite cute bodies, Kassy. The only thing I see is that her fingers look kinda broken =/ Can't wait to see it colored though, wish I could figure out how to do that.

I think she looks awesome. I can see what Mae is saying with the hand but if you're going to put a spell effect or something there I think it will come out looking right.
I think.. I've been trying to figure out whether my hand will do that and it looks like it would but my hands are double jointed so they do odd things anyway

my hands do it just fine, which is what i go by for drawing hands... also, i forgot to add the interior line seporating the middle and ring fingers, so it looks a bit odd. it'll get fixed.

They look OK to me...looks like they're bent kind of toward you so they're foreshortened a bit.

Hope you don't mind but I really liked your work and figured I would use it to practise my coloring work and get more familiar with my stylus (which I'm still fighting with). What do you think? 🙂

not too shabby. 🙂 not colors i would have gone with, but it turned out nice, epecially if you're not used to using a stylus. i couldnt color for crap when i switched from mouse to tablet... not that i can anyway, but hey.
only thing Id suggest is to move all the lines to another layer and set it to multiply - and make sure it stays on top of everything else. that way you dont get the white halos around the lines... that's how i do it, but im sure there's other, probably better, ways.
feel free to color anything i post in black and white... and if i dont post B/W of soemthing you want to play with, leave a note or PM or AIM me and i'll email you one. 🙂

I knew there was a trick with the lines to make them less obvious. Its a damn good job, Noc =) Coloring still boggles my mind and I really like the background. 👍

Yep that looks really good Noc, especially for still learning the tool!
I love how you did your hair Kassy, the blues and whites look so cool and soft!!!

I enjoy coloring stuff, I can't do line art worth a damn so yeah I'd love to work on more stuff if you have anything laying around 😁
This project alone re-taught me a few tricks. Prior to this I hadn't done any coloring work for, um... well 2-3 years I think, and yeah this was my first time with the tablet. I can't do hair or eyes that well... yet.
As for the color scheme I went with, I wanted something a little unusual but still sorta nature-ish. I went for fall colors (oranges & faded greens) and then threw in some blacks and reds to give it a less peaceful feel (I think she isn't one ot those good-girl druids in my pic, hehe.. unkempt druid maybe?).
I'll remember that about the lines next time; the white grain around them was kinda driving me nuts on the whole project, lol
