It was only as I was colouring this that I realised I still signing pictures with "2016". Anyway, I think this has turned out well for the most part. I think her jacket looks good and that the green on her costume turned out well, but I had a couple of problems with the yellow parts. Despite leaving the black inks to dry over night, the still reacted with the yellow promarker, and there's some bleed from the black into the yellow, making parts seem dirty or messier than I intended. I also think the shadows in the yellow areas could have used another pass, as there isn't too much contrast between the light and shade. Her face fared a bit better though, particularly as I tried something a bit different there. I'm addition to the usual skin tones, I added some pale pink to her cheeks and nose, and though that seemed a little overbearing when I initially did it, I used a very pale skin tone to blend it in. The effect seems subtle, but it's definitely there, so I'll use this technique in the future. I might try adding the pale pink before the peachier tones though, to see if that makes a difference at all. The green of the background might be a bit too bright, but don't think it's too distracting. So on the whole, I think this has finished up pretty decently.
