Description
Lilith of Aeon Chronicles. Just threw in a quick background to see what she would look like against it. Ill add more detail to it soon to try and finish it off.Related content

So I've actually seen the piece from Rod that started you out with this color scheme, but I think it might be a better idea for you to go more high noon with it. that just means brighter sky, less red rocks.
one thing you've got to kep in mind when you give it a full go at the background is the rocks, right now they're quickly sketched and thats cool, but you gotta make sure they dont come across soft in the final version. that means hard edged brush, not soft one. one thing that helps me with rocks is using the brush shape changer in brush settings to bring the dots together so the brush is flatter and becomes more of an oval or palette knife shape. some texture wont hurt when you're done too.
for the character, one thing i notice about your work is it also appears very soft all around, you should experiment with some sharper edges as well as cast shadows.

Thank you so much. That makes much more sense to do. That is extremely helpful and i now have a bit of direction for this piece.
Thanks for the tips, i will definitely give them a go and try more sharper shadows too.
Cheers!!

I have no ideas of what to do for the background and the only other pictures ive seen of her have been ina deserty bg similar to this one. [link] It still needs finishing too which is why i added the critique option.

hmm i see more viking scene to it, like maybe the ocean or a temple of sorts

Well from what ive gathered so far it has more of a slightly biblical theme to it and the pics ive seen of her are with a deserty backdrop so im just going with it. I might try a temple though, that sounds like it could go with the theme.

I just got a response from the art director saying its a Conan type setting all medieval and stuff so thats really helpful. I think i might do a bedroomish bg with lotsa cushions and veils and drapery.
