Three days....three days work godammnit...but yeah Im really happy of how it ended up.

this picture was originally drawn on paper,after scanning it and cleaned/adjusted on pshop and illustrator, i uploaded it on Paint tool SAI and redrawn some details ...like the sword and the haircut ( illustrator vectorisation sucks...but save a LOT of time)

this is a picture of a female knight officer in my comic...haven't gave her a name yet...il think about it, anyway i mixed a couple of techniques in this work, for started i used a classic shade layer mixed with a gradient shade forthe character itself...its also the 1st picture where i actually drew a whole background and clouds...i had to spend 2 hours watching youtube tutorials to see how its done...the best part was the clouds...i know i totally screwed thoses but iguess i need to practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice

...and eventually get something worth it

nice

For some reason I'm getting an Asha vibe from this one. I can't remember her hair color in George RR Martin's book. But I'd imagine she looked like this.

Good job man

but i got to say it reminds me of saber from fate/stay night

ZeWitchKid responds:

i wonder why no one ever mentionned Agrias from final fantasy tactics yet...

Awesomeness

I really enjoy your artwork man. I can tell you all about improving and for that I respect you. Keep up the great work.

ZeWitchKid responds:

im improving now because im not playing world of warcraft...its the only damn thing keeping me to be the next Masamune Shirow..... ^^

I like the detail but...

...her stance is very statuesque, like she's got a cramp in her neck or something.

For this, you get a 7

ZeWitchKid responds:

i dont know if i can agree, i wanted her to have an arrogant , proud attitude, and i based the stance on photographs, the only stuff that really bugged me was the left hand.

Another one is out the park!!

I'm feeling this one man! The detail in the armor is the shit and I'm especially feeling the background. The pic of the girl is really good but I think you spent the most time on the background and then second, ole girls armor. Now, for the constructive critisism. The first thing I'd say is that her left arm seems shorter than her sword arm. I sometimes have that problem too except I'd make one arm bigger than the other one. I gotta stop that shit! Lol! The second problem, which really isn't a problem, just more of a preference. The shading in this one seems a bit off to me. What I mean is that I probably would've made the shadowed colors darker than the lighter parts. But like I said before, that really isn't a problem, it's more of preference. So really there's only one thing wrong with this one and it doesn't detract from the overall look of the work. Nice job man. One more thing too, I just read your description for the pic and I have to say that you're background extra sick. The background is good enough to have been it's own piece.

ZeWitchKid responds:

lol hand problems, yeah
yeah probably the part im less happy about is he left arm grabbing her robe, i tried to make her a fencer with lady-like manners so she lift a part of her robe upward for preventing her to step on the clothing while duelling, its a female fencing stance actually i've seen it in old picture, but mabie due to the facing angle, i didnt got it right Oo oh well perfection does'nt exist, you can always get close but you burn before getting into it
