Description Here's a chick with swords. She's a pirate of some kind, I reckon.

Gorgeous, luminescent and powerful; clean linework that leaves room for color, and color that takes no prisoners; extraordinary!

I really like it. Nice shadows, great expression. She looks like she's up to absolutely no good!

Thanks! I'm using pure color for my shadows now instead of just going for something dark. I'm also muting the character color a lot so the shading color becomes more prominent. I like how this approach looks, and I'll be playing around with it some more.
And no, she probably isn't up to any good. Luckily she's strapped in an egg shape.

The effect you're getting is much more expressive. I get tired of the ol' dodge and burn. I'm looking forward to seeing what else you achieve with this effect. I might even ask for a tutorial.

Good thing the egg shape is there.

Thank you! I think I'll work with this style for a while and see how far I can take it.

I'm learning to let the colors speak more for themselves rather than resorting to heavy tones for my rendering. Thanks for the comp.

At first I thought this was firefox fanart. I was so relieved when I found out it wasn't.

I do use Firefox, but I wouldn't know the first thing about drawing fanart for it, nor would I want to. Do people actually do that?

People are crazy obsessed with firefox. They draw furry porn of a firey fox anthro and build crop circles of the firefox logo they are insane.

She seems like a pretty good pirate.

Yeah, I figure any pirate that isn't covered in scars or missing limbs is pretty good.

HomieBear In reply to mallaard [2006-08-16 03:31:43 +0000 UTC]

Hehe- I never thought of that before! So all those cool pirates with the peglegs and such are not so good at piracy!

I'm sure most of them were good, but you have to be REALLY good to keep your legs.
Still, we can't see her shins. For all I know she's walking on a spatula and an egg beater. I shouldn't assume things.
