Description Jedi Master Shaak Ti from Star Wars for #StimulateCREATE 's theme of the week. Done with pencil, crayola colored pencils and sharpie. Tried to go for my own cartoonish style because realistic drawings aren't my strong suit.

Thanks Nick. She looks pretty flat though, and I had a hard time getting those crayola pencils to blend. Any tips on that? Besides buying better equipment that is lol.

When you color, I would work in layers. Start with a light color for each section, then gradually build up your color. Increase your pressure as you apply a new layer, and use complimentary colors to create darker areas.

I would also use the scumbling method of coloring: create small circles or figure-8's to cover an area versus long lines. It will make your work look smoother and will help with the blending.

She's looks like a tough one to draw! You did a good job interpreting her in your own style.

I didn't have that difficult of a time to be honest. Just getting the perspective, proportions and symmetry with the eyes was difficult. Thank you.
