i was doing something on my photoshop on my laptop and created this really awesome color palette using the Curves feature. the color pattern before was from a custom brush that kept the colorization

but yeah i spent i think about 3 and half hours maybe maybe 4 hours on it

i think she turned out really good. i wanted something bold and that contrasted a lot (using the palette of course) and i was at first going to go for a more flat, textured look but it ended up more realistic (ps, me and my bf decided she was the offspring of his orc and my troll from WoW it really does look like her mum in the face but her dad's color lol)

anyways its me bed time

NOTE:

thank you very much ^JunkbyJen for featuring me and the DD... i'm really glad it was something you saw worthy of a DD? least i hope you did

but thanks for all the comments and the faves, i will try to thank everyone individually at some point and browse galleries and such

I just felt like before nobody knew of me or my artwork and i really wanted the community to see what i had to offer. Whether or not they like what they see, is beside the point. So long as people know its there for their pleasure or not, that's what i want

(and i totally had deja vu there )

==================================

How could i forget note!!!

a Huge thank you to *Liol (same person) for helping me with key pointers, advice, critiquing my work for me, and being and awesome artistic and good friend to me i owe her a lot i feel and i keep striving to get better! i must shoot for the unpainted and unknown!

thanks Brittany
