The Archeress

At last, I have more art to show. This one I'm quite proud of, it's a female archer (or archeress, though I'm not sure if that's a real word >w<). I drew her standing at first, but then chose to place her in a more dynamic pose that expresses more energy and the tension of being in the middle of a fight.

I also spent a lot of time tweaking her color scheme.

This illustration is inspired by the online trading card game Ederon, which I once often played and recently decided to return to. One of my decks is a solo Hunter, and this is the picture that comes to my head whenever I play this bow-based deck.

Here are some WIP versions of the illustration:
Rough pencil sketch

Digitized drawing (vectors)
Penciled shading (which I like to call a "shading map." I create the vector version by looking at this).
Thanks and let me know your thoughts!

Seagull Sisters

More characters for the MousePaw games...
These three sisters which appear in Word4Word are like chatty teenage girls. I decided to give them matching scarves & anklets as well as ridiculous eyelashes to go for that effect. :3
