I know it's been a while, haven't posted anything in almost two weeks. I felt very lonely without Steemit and all the friends there, but had couple of commissions to finish apart from my regular job. I also made a trip to the capital for some business matters (I'll probably write a post about that too). So many things to accomplish and time flew by before I even noticed. XD
Today is a continuation of my recent personal project. It's more of a concept for one of my OC Phery Mallory from the Inexplicit project by my friend and colleague Rossy and me. The general idea came from my previous entry for the [12th Weekly #Cartoon-off Contest] hosted by @corpsvalues. I was also a judge for two weeks which was really awesome! Thank you so much for this opportunity! ^.^
The initial sketch was published 3 months ago. If you're interested, you can check the link here:
New sketchbook ---> new traditional sketch ^.^
I also made a live stream to show my process:
OC Phery Mallory Live Session - Part 02 ^.^
During the last couple of weeks spent an hour or two every night just to polish the details or play with all golden ornaments. Still not satisfied with some parts, but decided it was time to share with you the process so far. ;) It's still a work in progress tho'.
Started with the traditional sketch of course:
After that came the digitizing of the sketch:
Adding basic colors for the skin. I'm calling them basic colors, because had to repaint the body after that. XD
Next was adding details on the hair and body. Also tweaking the golden parts.
And one very quick design for the dress which was later rejected.
Still, saved some of the ornaments on the back and added black tulle using Brocade Fabric brush set by nathies stock.
This is also the latest WIP. Have to finish the front of the dress and maybe add legs and make it full body character design. I was inspired by the new Intel contest which ends on November 15 so there's still time to participate. ;)
I hope you like it. Have a great day, everyone! Thanks for stopping by!
