So many finicky things I wanted to clean up on this, but time is beating me like a spiked stick.

This is Orlanda, a new character to be introduced into StarSiege:2845, a creation of Blake Hutchins who wrote the story for the original Starsiege and is also working with us on the sequel. This is one of two painted pictures I slapped together for her character bio page.

I dunno your technique Smile

but I have some suggestions :
-try to use as many brushes as U can, imo the dodge and burn tools (if U used those here) I would advise you to avoid this stuf, brushes always bring more realistic effects Smile

-work with the shadows, there are few errors with those, for example on face or body.
-great floor I like it Smile

And art is very nice Smile

I like it ...

Thanks for the comments Very Happy

I did indeed use the dodge and burn tools here and there. It was a first for me and I wanted to see how it turned out, but guess I'll step back from the technique.

The shadows are definitely something I wanted to continue working on. All in all, thanks for pointing these things out

Thats actualy very typical here. Alot of people will look at your work, few will comment. Just how it goes.

I like the shading you've done on your work. I just have a hard time deciding if this work is a line art thats colored or realistic work with lines? As depending on where I look it looks different. If that made any sence at all?

The background with the light reflecting off of the floor is SLICK!!!
