Description A character from a comic I'm working on. I've been too slow working on these, but I think I'm getting the look right now. Got another painting that will be finished soon too Done with watercolor and colored pencil, some slight editing in Seashore.

You've done a great job keeping everything in harmony with the colors. And I love how you've rendered the fog in the background!

Thank you.  I've never seen Merlin, but the dark sorceress look is a good one.

Unfortunately I had to scrap it.  Another person was going to be the writer but he never made anything other than the character ideas.

That sucks
What I saw (with your character designs) were pretty cool, maybe you could do a story about it instead? or find someone else that can help you out with the game design?

What was the game supposed to be about??

Thanks.  It was supposed to be about this young girl wandering around a desolate world and these are some of the characters she encounters.  The characters and story belong to the writer so I'm not going to make them into anything.  This whole project taught me not to draw anything until somebody has a good chunk of story written out first.

It's superb how much you did with one color. The values of blue-green are diverse and rich ( the cloth folds). The trees fade nicely into the mist, and you showed great depth thru the further trees. Your character conveys an image of looking very much in her element in this mysterious forest. Nicely done all-around. Hope the comic is coming along nicely.

Well, 3 colors. Gray, green, and blue. It's a good exercise if you're new to painting. Thank you!

It is much easier to work in black and white, but I'm learning that color is worth the extra trouble.
