Zandrakyr WIPs

EDIT: WOW! The chick on the left is the only one left to be finished!
Here is Zandrakyr Vi'Valdi (middle) and Lillian (right).

~*~*~*~*~

Some things I've been working on lately... I'm learning a LOT as I go, so constructive criticism is extremely appreciated!

This will go into scraps once they've all been completed. I'm proud of myself for having finished Zan and Lillian - I didn't let myself work on anything else until they were (aside from Alissandra), which was more difficult for my 30-minute-attention span than anyone could guess!!!




For the most part, I'm trying out a technique where you shade in greyscale and then put color over the top of it... All of their faces are done using that technique, but I'm just kinda wingin' it with their hair...

#1: I had been intending for the brown-haired one to be a quickie with lines (as can be seen HERE) but I got a bit carried away.... I have no reference for her hair, so we'll see how that goes...

#2: The hair is completely different (and no longer blue!) in the final version and I'm much more happy with it. The textures on the clothing turned out delicious. YAY!!!

#3: The face needed a lot more work before I was happy, and I think the end result was great. The hair turned out easier than I thought it would!
