Description [Adora Belle Dearheart was] a tall young woman in a tight, gray woolen dress, with coal-black hair plastered down and forced into a tight bun at the back so that she looked like a peg doll. There was a slight redness to her eyes that suggested she had been crying. -Going Postal

I'm rereading Going Postal and remembering my love for Pratchett's work, so here's another Discworld piece. Another fairly static portrait aagh I need to push myself to be more free with expressions and exaggeration. This was a first attempt. Also, I used a multiply layer for basic shading this time around, not something I usually do. I think it actually turned out pretty well.

Absolutely sweet. It's nice to see miss Spike in warm, hearty colors. Her eyes are very acurate, I recognized her immediaetly.

I love the colours and the contrasts in this picture, they somehow suit Adora Belle's personality.
