Description Commission for her awesome Sith character Hel'aina.

I'm a little proud of myself, because usually I keep the colour combinations harmonic, therefore it looks boring. This time I tried using some more colours, plus the character's skin was fun and challenging and something else too. ^^

Unfortunately it's a photograph, not a scan. I don't have a scanner... -.-

Tools: Copic ciao markers, copic fineliners, white pencil.

No white gel pen this time. I realized that I kill my pictures with the gelpen. Not only because it sucks and draws too thick lines and is transparent, but also because it takes out the reality out of my pictures. I just can't help but reach for realism when I draw and white gelpen at the end is always like a step back from the finish line.
I've realized that realism kills my originality. So I added a few lights with white gel pen.

Considering the lighting and atmosphere in the picture, I just don't know where to put it. It just doesn't feel right.
