Description This is fan art for The Proving Grounds.
A project that was started by my dear friend *Bug-Off and has grown into a huge living thing!

If you'd like to join then you can learn more of it here: [link]

The Empress is a dangerous beauty.
Even though she dresses in fancy gowns nowadays she still has the warlust and wild heart of a demon inside.
You'd do best not to make her angry! Or annoy her! Actually, better stay as far away from her as you can...just to be safe.

Here is the first concept of her: [link]

but there have been even more, go and check them out in the group gallery whydontcha!


-------------------------------

I did this one today in an attempt to fix my art blockage with another painting. I think it may have worked, only time will tell


also saved the sketch this time: [link]

I love the textures here, and the subdued palette (Especially compared to the sketches).
There's something that makes it stand out from the rest of your work, but I can't really put my finger on it.
Plus, those fat-ass brushes work well with the textures to give this an old-timey-portrait feel. Especially around her neck and collarbone. They also create a great contrast with those thin strands of red hair.
Great work!

Thank you thank you! That makes me very happy!
I have been admiring Pete Hawley art for a while now and wonder if my style did not get a bit influenced by him, if so I am glad!

Wow! I had never heard of him. Are these actually "old"? They look so modern! Especially the poses.

I think most of his stuff are from around the 50's.
Really a great inspiration, especially for lighting and pretty women!

She is elegant, beautifull and queenlike, yet you can sense that she is realy a old and cruel monster. May I suggest and hope for more Proving Grounds fanart to break the art block?

She looks much more realistic now. So elegant, yet I can almost see the venom in her eyes...
