Description Finally done. This one almost killed me. I don't know how many hours I spent on it but... I guess it would be better not to know XD
So, here is Sailor Saturn in her original form. I think she is so much more elegant than in her post-resurrection form.

I bought a tablet last month ; this is my first work with it, although I didn't used it a lot ; just for the sketch and the hair... I think.
This time this is 100% digital. The reason why this piece was really a pain is that I got pretty confused with all my layers... And very often they didn't merge the way I wanted to ! The parts I wanted to hide were still visible throught the others layers etc... I nearly got crazy because of that XD
Also, first time I painted a background. It looks a bit amateur huh ? The limit between the ground and the sky seems sooo flat ! >_<
But I tried my best. I'm so relieved I finished it.

I used several brushes :
Stars : [link] and [link]
Ground and Rocks textures : [link]
Cracks : [link] and [link]
Also, the rock tutorial : [link]

That's it, please comment and if you have some tips that I could use to be more efficient, I would listen veeery carefully

*too lazy for a french translation*

vraiment magnifique!

Pouvons-nous vraiment faire ça avec une tablette graphique?

Merci ^^
Eh bien oui, on peut faire plein de choses avec une tablette... En fait le stylet remplace la souris, et ça devient très pratique !
Pour celui-ci, comme c'était mon premier essai, je n'ai pas eu le temps de prendre le coup de main, alors je ne l'ai pas beaucoup utilisée, juste pour l'esquisse initiale, les cheveux et les roches (je crois).
Mes autres dessins, je les avais tous préalablement dessinés sur un carnet avant de les colorer avec Photoshop ^^

Yeah, she did had a more interesting personality.
I also like the manga better than the anime. I didn't even watch it entirely XD
Yep, I guess I should have added more colors to the sky. I'm still a beginner at painting backgrounds u_u
Thanks for your comment and the fave

I agree about her elegance in her pre-ressurected form. She also had a much more intesesting personality. I kind of feel like she got shoved to the side after the mistress 9 ordeal.

In the Manga, atleast. I like the manga better than the animeeee. :/

This is gorgeous. The background looks good to me, it's just the sky that looks flat. Maybe add more color to it? If you want critique, that's all I can muster. Other than that: YAY! she's so prettyy!!

I have a tip about the background; try having the sky lighter towards the ground and the further away you get from the ground, the darker the sky should be

But all and all, I love the picture and the face is beautiful! :>

Reiranna In reply to SandyTech [2010-08-05 04:49:11 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I thought about that after submitting the pic... And I felt too lazy to fix it, with all the layers problems I had... XD
But thanks anyway, next time I paint a background like this, I'll try to make it realer
Oh, and thanks for the fave by the way ^^
